9-13-10 Fine, I’ll Update the Blog

I guess the only way to shut up the nagging voice inside my head telling me to blog is to just do it.  Life is busy. It doesn’t get any less busy as the days go by, and I don’t feel like i get any more organized or my time any better spent. But I’m a mother, and that will forever be my justification.

So many pictures to post, so much to talk about. We aren’t in our house yet, but they’re telling us by the end of the month. Unless they keep losing the documents they’ve been asking for for our loan. Buying houses is a pain in my rear, but I’m more than anxious to finally be in our own place.  Our own life.  My own decorations.

Jacob started school two weeks ago. Going good so far, but he’s also only taking two classes this semester before jumping back in full throttle. I think it’s so cute that he goes to school. I feel like I should send him go-gurts  in a tin superhero lunch box and tell him not to talk to strangers. And I’m secretly jealous -  no, openly jealous – because I love school and hope to finish my speech pathology degree someday. For now, I don’t have a spare minute. When I’m not being a mom, I’m editing pictures. So I don’t have time for hobbies like scrapbooking or reading, and that’s okay because I really love photography too.

No, I didn’t put Easton in pre-school. I know, what a horrible thing, right? So we’ve been doing school for about an hour a day at least 3 times a week. I remember when I thought I would homeschool my children. That was before I had kids. It’s just not practical for me to think that I can workout, clean, cook, get ready, take care of babies, edit and school my children for 6 hours each day. I know too many homeschoolers who entirely neglected their children’s education, and I’m wise enough to know that I don’t have 6 spare hours to devote to school. So it won’t be done. I don’t like public schools either, particularly in Vegas,  and I wish there were an affordable alternative. I don’t know what I’ll do yet, but I have a year to think about it.

Okay, picture time. This is all from our Cali trip the end of August.template 1 template 2 template 4 template 6 template 3 copy template 5 template 7 image 048 image 012

Alright, that’s all I can bare for now, and motherhood is calling.
