A little more excitement

Today Blake took the bus to school...her first time on a bus. OMG...could she have been any more excited. She didn't even give me a hug and kiss good-bye...she just ran up the bus steps and sat in a seat. I barely saw her hand waving as they pulled away. I didn't even get a picture of her getting on. I did get a picture of the bus...whoopee...LOL Well, there is always tomorrow right!

Exciting Day

This morning the whole family had to go tot the HD to get their shots and I had to wait in the hall as I was crying when it was Blakes turn, though I was a little tearied eyed when Ramon was getting his too! Blake had to get the most 5, one being a new one that they are going to be making manditory soon. She did great though and after we took the boys to school we tool her to McDonalds to get her a happy meal. We came home and had lunch then it was time to take her to school. We go there and she was making sure I got a picture of her with her Cinderella back pack. I must say she wasn't too excited over the weekend. But by the time we we got there she was thrilled. We went to the office and was then led to her room and she was a few feet in front of Mike and me and only looked back once to see if we were coming. LOL There was no time for pictures when we got to her room as the class was full and the kids seemed ready to go. She went and sat down as Mike and I stayed by the door. She shouted across the room bye and waved..then thought again and ran over and gave us some hugs and kisses. When we went to pick her up, she had forgotten her boots so we went back to her room to get them and I got a couple pics of her.

Exciting News

:yippe I am soooo excited. :yippe

DD starts pre-school on Monday :yippe

Well, this is all depending on if she's feeling any better. :(

But I am hoping for the best. :yippe

She will be picked up by bus at 12:00 and come home with her brother a 4:00..she technically gets out at 2:45 but they have to go pick up the other kids after her. She goes from Monday - Thursday. So we will have all Friday together. :yippe

What a day.....and it's only 10:30 a.m. I finally found a pre-school that Blake can go to...I just need to fill out a ton of paper work. I am feeling so overwhelmed at the moment that I am fighting back tears. Why is it when you call doctor offices that they need to make you feel like an idiot? Our doctors office is about 45 minutes away and I don't want to take the hour and a half drive if they aren't going to help me with what I need. Not to mention the time I will be there waiting for the forms to be filled out.

Some of the questions on these forms (not to mention that alot are repeats) in my opinion are tough to answer...in my opinion my daughter is where she needs to be in her developement but I am not sure about her educational developement...I know she's not stupid, but I am not sure what they want her to know, and they combine things and then they are yes and no questions...yes she can do this but has trouble with that.....and there is NO room to write anything. I am just so frustrated right now....and Mike is NO help in this matter. Especially with him working nights and sleeping all day. I feel like screaming right now.

So that is what I am dealing with right now..I don't remember having to do all this when Ramon was her age...LOL

Vacations

It's been years since I have been on a vacation. When I was growing up we went somewhere every year. My favorite ones would have to be camping...yeah we had a mobile home, so technically we didn't camp, but it wasn't home. lol And it was at a camp ground. Before we had the camper we usually rented a cottage. I remember one year, my dad had gone out fishing real early in the morning and my brother Ernie and I rowed out to him when we got up...dad had told us this outragous fish story about a huge pike....yeah yeah whatever...well, I got out of the row boat and climbed into my dads boat to fish with him and my brother rowed back to the cottage. Not long after my dad got a hit on his line and it was deja vu' of what he had just told us....he fought this fish and got it right up to the boat and when we went to scoop this HUGE pike out of the lake it just let go of the line...like it was laughing at us. When we got back to the cottage my brother had told everyone about dads story and I was telling them taht it happened again and I witnessed it...they did't believe me. Thought my dad conned me into going along with his story. I don't know if they ever did end up believing us or not but....IT WAS ALL TRUE! LOL

Smash Mouth

Sorry I am posting this a little late...couldn't get my camera program to upload my photos. Yes that is Ramon...February 7th he went 4 wheeling with a friend and the 4 wheller stalled out..the 4 wheller has a pull cord to start it and Ramon leaned over to watch his friend start it and got an elbow in the mouth. He couldn't eat solid food for 4 days and even after that it still hurt to chew but was getting better. This actually looks good compared to what it really looked like. The cut in his lower lip was only a couple of layers of skin until it went completely thru...eeewwww. We were worried about him losing his bottom teeth but they seem to be doing good and tightening up. We didn't think they were lose but Ramon thought they were. His lip is completely healed. Thank God it wasn't more serious.

Happy Birthday Blake

Yes it's now my little mermaids 5th birthday. OMG Time has gone by sooo fast. She's such the opposite of Ramon. Yet they adore each other so much. But they are at that age where she thinks she knows everything and she annoys her big brother. She's quiet the drama queen, the diva, the model. She loves having her picture taken...Picture me mom...those are her words.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLAKE...I love you!
