A few firsts for us...

Last Monday started school for us in this crazy household. Zeke started third grade which was strange for me. He is getting so big, I can't stand it. He survived his first week just fine. It definitely helps that he has the same teacher he had for first grade.

Another first for us is that Herschel is teaching a 1-2 combo this year. It will be his biggest challenge in teaching for him so far. He says he has a great group of kids and he can't wait to see what the year brings for him.
And our final first in the house is that Zac is now out of his crib and in a big boy bed. I think he really likes it. He has adjusted to it nicely, thank goodness. For the most part, we have all been staying pretty busy around here. Soccer is going to be starting this week and I can't wait to see how that is gonna be. It is always so much fun watching all those kiddos on Saturdays. Looking forward to watching Zeke grow during this sport. I love watching him play goalie. He's a cutie. That's it for now!

Hiatus...

So sorry for the hiatus but we were traveling again. This time we were in the state of Illinois. We went to visit my husband's family. Talk about having a good time; we extended our time and when we did have to leave, it was so difficult. To keep the busy vacation simple, we went to two baseball games at Wrigleyfield. So glad that the Cubbies won both of those as well. The boys loved the games and Zeke got a ball from one of the pitchers. Herschel was more stoked about that than Zeke, I think. We went to the Shedd Aquarium, Navy Pier and walked around downtown Chicago. We got to spend time with his family and had a blast! It was great listening to stories and just enjoying their company. I will post pictures soon. I am still so tired and I am trying to get caught up around here before school starts in 10 days!!! Total craziness around here!!!
