The two littles started soccer 2 weeks ago and Ryan starts practice friday. And of course here is lil Red sleeping in my laundry. Lil Stinker!

Not to much new here. Kids are doing fine at school. Ryan's tummy aches appear to be taming down. Megan hasn't had any notes home from school. And Ethan is finally starting to work harder on homework and such. YAH! We had a nice supper with Dennis on sunday, the kids had really been missing him (and Buddy ;) ) We are knee deep in Scouts and Soccer now too. I will try to upload some pictures soon.

Small Update....
The kids are settling into school nicely. There biggest beef is that they don't have recess. I am going to approach the school about this, but I have been forewarned by my teacher friends this is a losing battle. :(
Ryan is coping so much better and I am really proud of him for that. Last week we had to take him to the dr because he had an ear infection and his glands were swellend. We also went for Soccer Tryouts this past friday and we should get a coach assignment this week. We found out his old coach (2 seasons) is going to competitive and even tried to talk Rob into the competitive team but honestly we just don't have the time. On a down note I am having listening issues with him, I know some of it is his age... but some of it is well just defiance. I want to figure a constructive way to work with him on this as he is such a loving child.
Ethan is blending well with his classroom and really just excelling. He is just so much different than Ry. I mean he can be stubborn (MAN can he be stubborn) and defiant, but its just different. He started soccer wednesday and has Megan asst coach from 2 seasons ago and he is awesome! Ethan is just not showing as much enthiusasm for Soccer as he used to so Rob and I decided to offer him some more options next time around, but the season is just begining so we shall see. Ethan starts scouts tuesday night! YAH!
Megan is my little firecracker!! Lets see we already got a note in her agenda saying she needs to listen better, a progress report saying she needs help with listening and a phone call from the teacher saying she is not doing what she is supposed. Now she is not being mean to the other children, she just simply marches to her own band... LOL!! Of course I keep reminding her that she really needs to listen to her teacher, that its not fair for her to follow the rules. She still loves going to school. She started soccer on wednesday also and the person who stepped after Rob stepped up is an awesome coach. We are still waiting to hear from Girl Scouts which she is so excited about after being a part of the boys for almost 3 years now.
I am still adjusting to the whole working thing plus everything I used to do and most days I am pretty much flat worn out. But the extra money helps, so I will keep plugging along. I do enjoy the job, it just is hard to get all the other stuff done in so much less time. Rob is busy busy with the business and we are working on getting more advertisement going. YAH! Well I need to go pack lunches and back packs and hit the sack.
