... until the girls start Kindergarden! It's getting harder and harder to keep them from each other's throats, they fight all the time!!! It used to be that Aubrey dominated Sarah and that was just the way it was, but I guess Sarah figured out that she's bigger than Aubrey (by 2 1/2 inches and several pounds) Lately I mostly hear screaming, followed by Aubrey running to me saying, "Sarah is gonna hit me!!!" Ahhh, it's music to my ears! About as much as nails on a chalkboard.
Tomorrow we will go the OKC Zoo with Baba (grandpa Gary) and get out of the house for the day, so that will be nice. These things always SOUND good, but once you do go it's just crazy... let's hope we survive!!

It's been a looooong time....
I guess 9 months between blogging is long enough... can I even consider myself as "having a blog" if I never update it? Well, consider me back in the game! Maybe... we'll see...
This summer was so crazy, that's probably why I never got around to writing anything. Being a part-time single mommy takes a lot of time, I don't know how military wives do it while they're hubbies are on TDY or how actual single moms can put up with the stress of having kids all by yourself, all day, every day! It is definitely a welcome sound to hear Mike come through the door on Friday evenings!! Of course, there are the positive parts: I get to watch whatever I want when the kids go to bed and I get to make what I want to eat for supper! *lol* However, the cons outweigh the pros, so we just won't go there.
The girls will be starting Kindergarten in one week, and I CAN'T WAIT!!! It's hard to believe they will no longer be considered Pre-K, especially since they've been in a full-time pre-k for the last 2 years. Kindergarten will not be a big adjustment for the girls time-wise, but I think the added responsibilities of everything one learns in Kindergarten will be an adjustment. Thankfully they will have AMAZING teachers to help them through it all!!
Sean Michael will be at a little 2-yr-old prechool program at a local church, and I think he's going to love it! He's such a little "learner", he's constantly singing me something new or identifying new pictures in books, so I can't wait to see him soak up all the new info in his class! It will be MWF in the mornings, so that means that I will have 3 mornings a week to myself! Woo hoo!! Maybe somewhere in there I will get to work out AND have a little time to rest. Is that possible??
Hopefully I can keep up this blog better this time around... I really enjoy it, I just have to take the time to do it!! Here are a few recent pictures to officially kick-off this blog season!
