Me

There hasn't been a lot going on in my life lately. I have been waiting for something fun to happen so I can share it will all of you, but my waiting goes on without success. So instead of waiting for something fun to post, I thought I would just share a few things that are going on with me.
Tomorrow I take Bryce to register for Middle School- yes, I am kind of freaking out. How do I have a child that is old enough to be in middle school? Ok, don't answer that- of course I know how. But, my, has the time flown by. Really it is sad- I'm starting a stage of my life that I really don't want and there is nothing I can do to stop it. Bryce in middle school, there is so much that he will be exposed to and I can't shelter him from certain things anymore. I just hope I have been able to prepare him enough for what is to come. Then with Kaitlyn starting first grade, she will be at school for a full day now. I know she will be fine, but I really worry about her. Of course it will be harder on me then her, I know that. I am not ready to be at home without any children here with me. No- don't drop by your kids......I want my own :) It really will be an adjustment that is for sure. I'll keep busy with helping Kyle at work two days a week, and volunteering at the school- but like I said, it's a stage I really don't want to be in right now.
Of course there are some things coming up that I am really excited about. The kids and I will be heading out to Philadelphia to visit my brother and his family next week, we haven't been back east since we lived there about 10 years ago. I am totally excited! The cousins will have a great time playing with eachother again. And then Eryn will be turning 8 years old in the next two weeks. So, yes she will getting baptized. I really am proud of her for making this decision. It will be a great day.
I know I have probably bored most of you with this post....if you even made it this far...but this is just a glimpse into me at the moment.

Not looking forward to that day. Sure the kids will do great like you say...it is the mom at home thinking about them all day wondering what to do with the time and the quiet. Probably will only last a couple of days and you'll be loving it.

Can't wait to hear about your trip back east. So jealous you guys get to go. Enjoy yourselves. Looking forward to that trip one day. What a great place.

I'm jealous too you get to go back...I better go back soon before I Kira has to get her own seat or I have anymore kids. :) I can't believe the kids are growing up so fast...I remember when Bryce was born! I can't wait to see you all in a few weeks!
