Busy Days.......

Considering it has been a month since my last post,

it goes with out saying that we've been busy getting back into our school routine.

It's been a good busy, but busy nonetheless.

Hallie has transitioned nicely into Junior High.  

She loves it and is doing very well. 

 She has really kicked it up a notch

and has been very responsible about  her school work and home work.

She even gets up on her own at the crack of dawn  to get herself ready each morning.

In fact this morning, both girls woke up at 6:00 (while the rest of us slept), straightened and

 curled their hair and smothered on lip gloss!  

Times are changing around here. 

Our third bathroom downstairs was meant to be. 

The timing of it couldn't be better!

And it's so close to being finished. 

We just need to tile the shower!! 

Nadya is a big sixth grader and 

she has a great teacher and has great friends. 

She is still very serious about school and manages to 

stay on top of everything even with adding an additional night of gym.

Alex is enjoying his second year with his teacher.

Not much to report with him as it wasn't much of a change.  

His teacher said  Alex is her "go to guy" and she really appreciates all of his help.

Carter has transitioned nicely into his new school as well.

It was a rocky start, but I am happy to report it has been smooth sailing for the last month.

Carter was a bit chatty at first (LOL- Imagine that!!!)

But he has figured out when he can and can not talk in first grade and is doing awesome!

In fact, today I was in volunteering  and Carter's teacher 

pulled me aside to tell me just how much she is enjoying him and his inquisitive nature.

She loves his comments and said that they are always spot on. 

I was pleased to hear that she is enjoying him.  

He really is a fun kid. 

So, that's our school update and I promise to have an overall September update soon!

I'll leave you with the fun picture of three adorable kids on Crazy Hair Day!!!!!!!!!
