Catching up

Well it as been a long time since I have blogged. I don't know what is wrong with me but the hours in the day go by so fast that before I know it it's 10 p.m. and it doesn't seem like I accomplished anything. So here's what's been happening with us.

The boys are enjoying school for the most part. Dylan is in 3rd grade and Jax is in 2nd. The first few weeks were a little rough for Dylan. His teacher is pretty strict this year and he was getting in trouble and having to move his magnet. (You move to yellow, then red, then blue). He had to move to yellow quite a few times which is very unusual for him. I think last year he might have moved once during the whole year and the first month of school this year he has already moved it at least 6-7 times. Most of the time it was for silly stuff like having a pencil on his desk(it was supposed to be cleaned off) and for looking in his desk while the teacher was talking. I think he has finally realized his teacher means business and for the last couple of weeks he has had no problems. Jax is doing well also. Unlike Dylan he moved his magnet many times last year always for the same thing.... talking. He is definitely our social butterfly. This year he has either zipped his lip or his teacher is much more lenient. I think it is the later. Whichever it is I am just happy he is staying on green!! The boys have both decided to take a break from soccer and are trying new sports this season. Dylan is playing tackle football and Jax is playing in line hockey. We are supper busy with practices and games. Sunday is our only day of the week we don't have something going on. I will post more about there sports later.

Ally is doing good. She is growing up so fast. She had her birthday a couple of weeks ago. She loves her dad and her brothers. She is so excited when they walk in the door after school and work. She has 8 teeth now and his walking everywhere. She loves to be outside playing. She is not going to like it when it starts snowing and she is stuck inside. She keeps me busy chasing her around the house and up and down the stairs.

We went to the balloon festival over Labor day weekend and it was a lot of fun. Last year I actually went into labor with Ally after getting back from the festival so it was fun to go this year with Ally as part of our family. It is definitely something we will continue to do as long as we live here.

Hope that wasn't to boring. Hopefully I will be better at keeping the blog updated from now on.
