Preschool

So I realized last night after exercising...my Zeken starts Preschool next year. I can not express my freak out ness. Ever since my son was born, we have been together, taking napes together, cuddling, reading skippy, playing together and when his sister was born closer than ever. I think this is why he listens to me more than his father. Every morning he is in my room waking me up or snuggling close to me. He is my lil man.

But the fact next year around this time we will be getting a school list and such...scares me. I have always been very wary about people watching my kids. They are my everything. To trust them with even a teacher is a bit cruel to me. I think ill be the one dropping him off and crying my eyes out. Maybe even David too.

So that means I need to step up as a mommy and actually use time to teach him again. It kinda faded out when we potty trained. So I just order tons more flashcards and a Brain Quest. I am hoping he likes them. I also need to get him a dry erase board so he can prepare some more. He can already count so numbers are good. It just he makes up his own words for things sometimes lol. and It is very hard to get him away from them. But we will prevail.

Juicing and Humongous couch!

I wonder at times why I have such a huge couch. This may seem random but cleaning it takes about 6 hours to do it right. Called washing all the cover which in total comes to 11 covers, plus throwing all the pillows in the dryer for 10 min with dryer sheets plus sweeping off all the parts you sit on plus sweeping them, wash the blankets I put on them to prevent dog fur and to well you get the point a lot of work. Too much in fact. We are buying a new couch so it is a lot easier in this department. I guess since it is a 3000 dollar couch it better take 6 hours to clean lol. Plus it came with 12 pillows for the couch. I use only 3 of the decorated part. Its just a pain to have that many pillows.

Though I love the new rug my husband picked out. I plan on getting the runner and the little one. Suppose to be stain proof. Well I think we will find that out really soon, I am surprised nothing has been spilled on it yet. Knock on wood hopefully doesn't happen soon.

I have picked up a new hobby. In preparation for getting a blue Quaker .

I have gotten a juicer and started making Juice for me and my birds. First one was Cucumber with apples..seeds removed...Tasted delicious and my parakeets love it! I was so excited when they were drinking it. Next I made orange juice yum and Watermelon, Strawberry, Kiwi and Apple Drink and I adore it. I made a half gallon of it. I quite enjoy making juice and having my birds love it just makes me squeal with delight. Yes, my birds are spoiled but in a good way. I can say lately I am really enjoying my life. Laughing together and holding hands is my favorite.

Well since it is naptime I need to play some Lego Pirates.

Lovely Day

Starting on this friday I spent most of my time watching a dear friend get married.

Watching someone get dressed for the happiest day of there life is exciting. Reminds me of how much my vows mean to me. We really had some moments watching will and lauren getting married. I got to sit with Wills grandparents who were the sweetest and funniest people. I sat with them at the reception too. It was defiantly worth it. The food was great, the bride was lovely and Will is Will. I met a lot of people at this wedding that will forever be in my heart.

Packing Packing Packing Packing

They story of my life. Will and Laurens wedding tomorrow. I will be away from my kids until Saturday morning. I am so depressed I will miss them so much....Sad face for sure.
