August 2013

Wow Three (3) months has really flown by. The kids are getting ready to go back to school. We are starting to have to get back into a daily routine, church school helped. And everyone is growing up too fast. This fall I will have a 3rd grader, 1st grader and a Pre-K kiddo. Where has the time gone too?

First off, Quintten is now three months old. He is too cute and just loves to smile. He is pretty happy all the time and watches his older siblings like a hawk. I'm sure he can hardly wait to catch up and do all the exciting things that he seems them doing on a daily basis. I will do a special post later about "the onsie." This is the time during the first year that I take those pictures, and I really want to try to show how they each look so much alike. I might even trip things up and move them out of birth order. But for now here is Quintten as a big three (3) month old baby.

The first day of school is always filled with fun and excitement. Summer is over, or at least it is according to the school calendar, it's still probably 100+ degrees outside, so lets send our kids back to school. Oh well, at least they love it and both of them have great teachers this year. Isabelle will have four teachers that she rotates between, Mr. Cook - homeroom and science, Ms. White - math, Ms. Doughty - Reading, Ms. Nuese - ELA. I think she will have a great year this year.

Barrett has Ms. Attaway this year for his teacher the same teacher that Isabelle had her first year at ACA and in First grade. I'm pretty excited, since I don't really have to get to know a new teacher, I just get to know his current teacher better.

Cooper does not start this month, but later in September, when school should start for everyone, and he will have Ms. Joan. Joan and I play soccer together so this should be lots of fun.

Oh yeah, I could not get Isabelle into see the stylist before school started so we had to wait until afterwards, but we made it before the end of the month. She decided to donate her hair to Locks of Love. She was able to cut off 10" of hair to donate. With the added bonus of getting a cute, new hair style to match.
