Day 2 of school...

08.10.04 (8:52 pm) [edit]

Yesterday was the first day back to school. I had to take Haleigh and it broke my heart to have to leave her there while I was keeping Hannah at home. Haleigh wants to be at home, too. She likes her teacher and thinks that she is very sweet. It helps that we used to go to church with her....that way she is already familiar with Haleigh. I think she taught Haleigh in Sunday School one year. I've been working the night shift so I get home about 6:30 a.m. and then get Haleigh fed and ready for school. About 7:20 a.m., I drive her to school and walk her to her class. I stay in her class until her teacher gets there and then I'm usually leaving by 7:45 a.m. After I get home, I get the other two girls up to get them dressed, fed, and ready to learn. Some mornings, if I notice they were a little messy while I was at work, I make them clean up first! Mean mommy!

I'm at work right now and for the moment it has slowed down. It's so hard to keep my eyes open! I keep falling asleep at the computer!

Guess I better do something productive!

Maybe I'll post tomorrow, These last few days have been the ultimate in CRAZY

Update from this afternoon...

08.07.04 (8:07 pm) [edit]

The girls had a good time at the birthday party. I think they went through a ton of bubbles! The food was great and of course the cake and ice cream is always a hit. The birthday girl(1 yr.) and her big sister(2 yrs.) had a ball with the cake and ice cream! They were covered in it from head to toe! It was so cute!

I also had the chance to meet 2 very nice&nbs p;ladies and their children from the Pregnancy and Beyond group...sweet ladies...very happy I got to meet them!

Busy day planned~

08.07.04 (9:01 am) [edit]

Tony and I went to Office Depot and bought an HP All-In-One 6110 ~printer, copier, fax, and scanner. I've been up pretty much all night playing with! I'm so excited with my new toy! Basically, it is for the business, but Tony isn't very computer literate so it is ALL MINE! heh heh heh heh :twisted:

The girls and I are going to my friend Deva's little girl's birthday party today. Bella is 1 year old! The year has really flown by! Afterwards, I am thinking of taking them to see the movie, "The Cinderella Story" with Lizzie Maguire(sp?)

I also need to try to find me a new dress for church. I've gained more weight than I care to discuss and I need new clothes until I can get the weight off :(

I need to get up and get ready!

Half the year is gone!

08.01.04 (1:48 pm) [edit]

It is hard to believe that the year is half gone! Seems like it's time for Christmas shopping again!
My computer has been on the blitz again so I have not been able to get online as much except at work...so I went out and bought another one yesterday! I'm really loving all this memory! Enough about that!
Here's an update on things that have been happening...
Tony fell off some scaffolding boards(they broke beneath him)on July 20th and broke his foot. Guess what I've been doing~for some reason he thinks he is too handicapped to get up and do anything or go anywhere. He is really starting to get on my nerves! I guess this is one of those, "for better or for worse," times, huh! Speaking of that...July 31 was our anniversary. We've been married for 11 years. [u][i][b]11 YEARS! :shock: [/b][/i][/u] Eleven years and three kids later, we are still floating along. Floating or dragging? Sometimes I'm not too sure! :?
The girls will be starting school soon. Holleigh will be going to preschool, Haleigh will be in the 2nd grade, and I will be homeschooling Hannah for the 4th grade. I'm still hoping to bring Haleigh home to homeschool. Summer was too busy to try to keep any type of "schooling" so we just kind of took topics of interest and found out all we could about them. Hannah received a Betta fish for her birthday so we did some research on it and she has had some curiosity about volcanoes. We did some reading about the volcanoes, but then my computer went crazy. I think we may try to create a "volcano" here at home. I've found some "how to" links online that looked fun.
The girls went to Baton Rouge for a week (the same week Tony fell which worked out to our advantage!) They went to the mall, swimming, and several other fun places. Of course, they came back SOOOOO spoiled rotten!
Since Tony is hurt, we have pretty much scratched the idea of a quick trip to Florida before school starts. Lovely, I was really looking forward to going somewhere. I need a break! Maybe I can take the girls somewhere without him. I hate to go too far off alone with them.
Work has been going well. We have been rather busy which is good every now and then. I am still glad I left my old hospital!
The thought of a Sunday afternoon nap is [i]VERY [/i]appealing right now! The couch is looking soooo comfy...
Have a great day!
