Joslyn's first day of preschool

Joslyn started school a little later than her sisters, but I wanted to make sure and post pics of her first day. She loves school and is always excited to go. Joslyn is such a sweetheart, always giving me hugs and telling me she loves me. She always tells me how much she loves all the things I do for her. She has such a big heart!

Nothing much to say...

I know I haven't been great about posting lately, but its been pretty crazy around here. Nothing much has happened. Its Labor day, Justin is working outside on the yard and I am trying to clean up the house. I don't have much motivation for that so I actually spent most of my morning reading books to Joslyn, which is much more fun. Noah was invited to his first birthday party today, but on his way to get a present, he got sick in the car. Thank goodness Justin was with him and not me. So, that changes our plans a little for today. I think we will just hang out and hopefully get some chores done. Justin and I had a great weekend watching football and spending time with the kids. Last night we played monopoly with Taylor and she did great! (she even beat Justin!) I have been feeling domestic lately and have been canning, and baking and freezing 50 ears of corn. This morning I got up early and made a huge breakfast. I really don't know what has gotten into me!! I am just feeling so blessed and want to make the most of those blessings. I have been spoiled lately because I haven't worked at the hospital in a month. I am just enjoying spending every minute I can with my cute kids and husband.

Back to school

I can't believe that summer is over. I have to say I am so excited for fall. It is my favorite time of year. The kids headed back to school and I am trying to get used to it again. Taylor has been in 2nd grade for two weeks now and she loves it. She has the sweetest teacher who does so many fun things in class. Ellie was so ready to start kindergarten! She finally started on Monday and woke up ready to go at 5:30 that morning. We walked together and as soon as her classroom was in sight, she took off running. I had to find her to take some pictures. She seems to love her her teacher and has already made new friends. I cried more than I thought I would, its hard for me to see my kids grow up so fast. I am more adjusted now and next week Joslyn will start preschool. She only goes two days a week for a couple of hours, so I should be able to handle that. Here are some pics from the first few days of school.
