We started with a good birthday for Mary on August 21st. here we are looking just lovely first thing in the morning!
Just about to walk in to her first day of 1st Grade!!
Emma started school this past week and is loving 1st grade. Sadly, though, she asked me today if she could just stay home and be with Mom. It was sweet but she has a long, long LONG way to go this year so it's time to get used to the schedule!!
Lauren is going to love all the extra attention during the time that Emma is at school and especially when Dallin goes down for his nap. Mom is looking forward to this as well!
Picking blueberries last week.
Dallin is as happy as ever and always has a big smile on his face at home, although he gets a bit shy with strangers. He is learning to sleep in his own bed at night....all night....without mom having to wake up 3 or 4 times in the night....and lose 2-3 hours of sleep....it's painful. Wish him luck!Mary has doubled up on classes again until the end of November and that takes up a substantial amount of time on top of kids, work, and church responsibilities. Steve is equally busy with work, a long commute, 3 kids that can't stand to be away from him and smother him every chance they can, church responsibilities, and sleeping (his new hobby, since he doesn't have time for any other hobbies!).
