i know, i know, i haven't posted in a few weeks now. i tell you, when school starts back up it just gets hectic. boy scouts has started and G is selling popcorn right now... which coincidentally if you are reading this and you would like to help him out, please call me and let me know. it is nice that if he sells enough that i don't have to pay for any of the planned activities for the year, but boy is it a pain in the you know what to walk around the neighborhood with a kid who does nothing but complain about how much his legs hurt. this being the same boy that will play outside for hours with no problem...

in other great news, M can write her name. by herself. she was the first in her preschool class to do that so now she gets to learn her last name. i don't think she even knows her last name (i am a bad, bad mom, i know) so i wish her teacher luck in teaching her both her last name and how to write it. a couple months ago i called her by her full name and she responded with a "who??" i guess i also have some work ahead of me.

and finally CJ is absolutely to no end fascinated by Woody and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story. the other day we were going to the store and he got in his car seat and was then like "where's Woody?" we told him it was still inside and he broke down into full on screaming... i guess Woody cannot stay home alone yet. so, we went back in to get him and, of course, he was no where to be found. we looked upstairs, downstairs, in the basement, searched the car... must have been about 15 minutes later that i found him and brought him out to the car. well, one of the neighbors got to see much of this and commented about how it looked like something she had to do for one of her kids when they were younger. now, i try to make sure he had Woody before we leave to avoid all of this.
