I have regained some of my sanity!

The 2010-2011 school year has started and I couldn't be happier. I love my children but they get bored when they aren't in school. Boredom leads to nothing good especially when your 7 and 10 years old. Jasmine has started 2nd grade and Hailey is *gasp* entering her last year in elementary school in 5th grade. I'm truely hoping this year goes by slowly. I'm not ready to have a child in middle school yet. I  just came to the realization in typing this out that at some point I will have children in High School, Junior High, Elementary and Pre-School. Ha and I thought we were busy now.

Trying to Keep Up....

We have been so busy with the start of cheer and school that I don't know whether we're coming or going at times. I know I need to get better about updating this....

Layla has been moved up to the Pre-School classroom. She is too young for the class but they agreed that with her potty training and her vocabulary that she would benefit being with the older kids! I dropped her off for her 2nd day yesterday and she ran right in without saying goodbye. I had to ask her to come back and give me a kiss. She has been telling me lately that she's a big girl. I guess I should have known that running away without a goodbye was coming but it didn't make it any easier. I guess my little girl is going to grow up whether I agree or not!

Preslyn is really trying to keep up with her sisters. It's wearing her out in the process though! She is finally sleeping in her own room in her crib. I was starting to get worried that she was never going to sit up on her own. Though apparently she was practicing when I wasn't watching because she can go from laying down to sitting all on her own now! I'm afraid the same thing is going to happen with walking.  She's working on crawling but right now all we have is the army crawl. She moves so quickly that I hope she stays at this stage for a little while longer. I don't think I'm ready for her to be completely mobile yet!
