So much to report.

WOW my baby boy starts middle school on Monday, I know so many of you have been through this but I had to hold back the tears as we walked around his new campus. We picked up his schedule for Monday, he has spend the last 7 years at his elementary school and I just can't believe he has grown so much and now is ready to enter a whole new world full of many exciting things. I am so happy to see that he is excited to start middle school, today has seemed like such a blur. You never know how things are going to affect you and I am quite surprised that I am having such a hard time with this transition, but I KNOW that he is going to do great and have a wonderful 7th grade year.

If I am torn up about 7th grade, I am going to need medication to let him go off to college lol

My Baby Turned 2 Yesterday

Yesterday my little squirt Abby turned 2, I can't believe how much she has changed and how much our lives have changed since she came in it. I wouldn't change it for the world, my munchkin starts pre-school on Monday and it is bitter sweet, at times I can't wait for my kids to grow up and become more independent and at others I just want them to stay young forever (sigh) . . . Well I leave you pictures of my princess.


Abby - Less than 1 day old.

Taking some time to breathe! Soccer, classes, retreats, Oh My!!

Hi everyone,

I have been a busy girl as all of you are I'm sure, between some awesome classes and family it seems like I sleep less and less lol. So what does a mom who doesn't have time to sleep do, well she decides to coach her daughter's soccer team of course, actually I did not originally sign up or this lovely position but seeing as how the girls did not have a coach and they would be disbanded if they didn't get one, (I think they just say this to scare parents into doing it) I decided to do it.

Then oh yes I took on a part time job, non-scrappy related it is like 10 hours a week - in this economy who am I to turn down a job, especially at a mere 8-10 hours a week! I will be working at UC Riverside in the plant pathology department creating media, just an FYI media is the stuff that goes into the dishes to help cultivate different yeast, fungi, and bacteria. Wow you just learned something new, and if you already knew that then aren't you just a smarty pants!

So that is it in a nutshell, I can't wait for my kids to go back to school on the 25th, YAY!!! My baby starts pre-school in a few weeks, I am feeling bitter sweet about that one, I know she will love it and it is only for 3 half days, but she is my baby (sniff sniff). At lease I will be able to get some work done instead of the staying up till the wee hours of the morning.

Well that is the update on me, I will be listing all kinds of awesome stuff shortly so check back because I am going to provide you with a ton of fun scrapbooking stuff to do in the next few months! Have a great Day!
