I just spent a long time typing this up and then I don't know what happened, but I was kicked off and nothing saved. So here we go for the second time.
Larry is back to school. We are in week 2 and things are not going well already. Larry's mom has made a unilateral decision to take Larry off his ADD medicine. The teacher has already called home and his homework is suffering greatly. This ought to be a fun year!
"What you doing mom/dad?" has gotten oh so old. I think we hear it 9 million times a day. Logan has also moved on to the phrase "Not yet." This one is cute in situations like when you ask "Do you want a spankin?" and he answers in a pitiful voice "Not yet." Logan has started a new daycare/preschool. He is still adjusting in the mornings and it is not so cute to hear as you are rushing out the door "No Mommy not yet" from your crying toddler. However it is short lived. When I go to pick him up he doesn't want to leave. I'm chopped liver then. Everyone at the daycare adores him and can't get over how cute he is. Of course- what did you expect. He is the cutest kid ever!
I am working for Twin Oaks these days. Add me to the list of family employees! I am a weekend receptionist for the Independent Living side. Pretty easy gig. I give tours every once in awhile and other than that I am just trying to learn every one's names. Working on the weekends doesn't leave me as much time to Extreme Coupon as I want, but we are pretty stocked up and there hasn't been any super duper can't believe I'm getting this that cheap deals lately so it's all good. My last big bargain was 24 boxes of name brand cereal for $24. I saved $39. Not too shabby.
We are surviving as a one car family but cannot wait to get some bills taken care of so we can get a second car again. We decided against the scooter since it would only get us thru to maybe late November. Might as well save the money and put it towards a car.
Logan's second birthday is not too far off and that means Halloween is around the corner too. Jesse is already talking about making Logan Wolverine. I am looking into planning a Micky Mouse themed birthday party. I am copying off a mom from Logan's old babysitter. She had a ton of cute but easy ideas that I plan on duplicating. I hope it's nice weather so we can have the party outside or at a park. Our house is just too small. There is even a rumor Uncle Jeremy and his kiddos will be able to come up from Nixa for the festivities.
