It's September? You have to be kidding me. Really? Nooooo....Yea? Huh, who'd of thought.
Yes, it's September, and here in the lovely state of Minnesota fall has arrived. Unlike summer, which seemed to take forever to get here, fall busted in without even a knock on the door. 98 degrees one weekend, 62 the next. Love it. With weather like this it's no shock that I am sitting at home today sick, Elana has a cold and Emma's allergies are acting up. Luckily Ellie and Kev have no symptoms of anything icky yet, but I'm sure it will happen.
Ellie started her second year of preschool. She just missed the cut off age for Kindergarten, so we are moving her up to 3 days a week at the same school she went to last year. She also had her school readiness assessment, and did fantastic. She needed to score at least a 14 to be deemed ready for school...she got a 24. That's my girl!!
Emma is trying more everyday to be the big girl. She is terrific with Elana...very much the doting big sister. Like most 2 year olds she talks NON STOP...and when she's not talking she's singing...and when she's not singing she's screaming...There seems to be noise coming out of her mouth 24 hours a day. She even talks in her sleep. LOL.
Elana is getting so big...10 months already!! She has a little cold but other than that is doing just fine. She loves to stand on her own now, not holding onto anything. Her 4 or 5 teeth make for a cute little baby grin, which she is never slow to offer up (especially when she's doing something she's not supposed to). Time is going too fast though...Where is my little bugsy? My little itty bitty baby girl?? Makes me so happy to see her grow, and breaks my heart all at the same time.
So...that's it. We had my stepdaughters (10 and 12), mother in law, brother in law and his girlfriend here for a week. Busy. Crazy. Teenage hormones. Too many people under one roof. Lots of fun :) Starting school soon. Trying to plan our move back to MI. And, when possible, catching a few minutes of sleep. LOL
