Who's Doing What...
We are entering that time of the school year when they jam pack every little thing they can think of into the last six weeks. Our oldest two girls have joined the running club at school. I was happy and surprised to hear they
were interested in joining. Alexys being blessed with running skills like her mother, I could understand why she would want to participate...NOT!! Apryl has started the infamous Growing and Changing unit we all remember so fondly. She was completely embarrassed to start this unit, but after talking with her numerous times about what she could expect I think she was slightly more prepared. I signed her permission slip and wrote her teacher a little "good luck" note and off she went to learn about "areas" as she says! "I was totally grossed out!" was her response when I asked her how it went. As hard as it is to talk to ONE kiddo about those things, I can only imagine what it must be like to have to talk to 25. Addysen has calmed down a little about the planets and has begun to like other stuff. She is extremely talkative, because obviously we needed a child that was not so quiet! For a while I was getting a break from the constant talking while Lexy is at school, but now, Addy just picks up where her sister leaves off! Yesterday she talked about the birds in the yard for over an hour. She talked about where they live and what they might be eating and also about how they use a toilet. That was when I said I had to clean the kitchen and that daddy wanted to hear about the birds bowel movements. Garhett is also starting to talk up a storm. Everyday he says something new, maybe even an entirely new sentence. He says, "thank you mommy." in the sweetest way I have ever heard. He and Brenden are very much into Toy Story still and watch the movie at least once a day. If I could put the movie on a loop, they would watch it over and over all day long. In fact, we have already discussed the boys being Woody and Buzz for Halloween. Both boys are definitely becoming their own little person. They are always aware of where the other one is or what the other is doing. Lately though Brenden has not been doing much. Yesterday I took him back to the doctor, I felt he had been sick long enough and I wanted to find out what is bothering him. Matt and I want our little man back. Brenden has lost weight and hardly moves off the couch some days or off my lap for that matter. So, as of now we are waiting for his test results and I hate waiting!! It is agonizing! Hopefully I get a call sooner rather than later. I am ready for Brenden to wreak some havoc again. I can not believe I thought that, I will regret those words!
