Our 1st Day of school

Our first day of school went really well today. We got all our work done this morning, and then thought it would be fun to go swim while everyone else was still in school. We were the only people at the pool, so I actually joined the kids and swam too. We were very productive today, and after devoting full attention to my kids ALL day long today, and keeping my day structured and on task, I am exhausted! I usually jump from one task to the next all day, and spend a lot of time on the computer working...and blogging. Ha Ha It really is a challenge for me to stay focused all day!
Daddy cooked us cinnamon biscuits for breakfast....yummy!
Noah and Leah....1st day of school! (in the doorway of the classroom, AKA dining room/kitchen table!)
Noah concentrating hard on his reading
Rachel, actually cooperating very well and working with her letters instead of disrupting us! I am very proud of her, even if she did ignore the 3 times I asked her to put on clothes!
Taking a deserved break. I told them if they did their work well, I would let them fill the Barbie pool up with water and play...I always wanted to do this as a kid!
Off to the pool....

Rachel....in Time Out...as usual

  2. I so wish I could be that kind of mom. I was so excited for school to start today. Although it was rather quiet without Ashlyn around (almost tooo quiet). Garret was so excited to see her though it was really cute. It's going to take a couple of days to get used to her not being here.
