Overdue post

So I'm not even sure how to begin a post after it has been such an extremely long time since we've done one. The task is daunting, i want to keep up a record of our family and what is going on but after we lost a lot of pictures and the time it took to recover them, so much time had passed. If i get around to it i'll try to play catch up but the only way i can manage to start blogging again is at the present day.

I'll do another post about our summer adventures in Colorado and UT later.

The school year has officially begun. Tomorrow marks the start of the third week of Pre-K, PPCD for Jordon. He is trying really hard to adjust back to the school mode, i know he likes it there and it's only 3 hours of school versus summer school that was almost 5 by the time he left to go to school til the time he was dropped off. The great thing though is that i believe he is more willing to go to the potty over there, he has learned over the summer to do it forwards and backwards without a potty insert, and after our big trek to CO this summer he is more willing to go into any bathroom. And he is no longer wearing pullups at school....woohoo!

His first day at school was quite interesting because somehow i forgot to sign him up for bus service for the year. So knowing that he wasn't registered again, i assumed i would just take him to school for the first week. I was actually kindof excited to take him but then the bus came down our road. That was a sad morning, don't know why, but i was disappointed of not being able to take him on the first day, getting pictures, etc. David was pretty sad all morning so we just did a lot of activities to keep him going.

I figured if the bus took him in the morning,  for sure he would be on the bus when he came home. Got a phone call from the teacher stating that the bus forgot him and he would need to be picked up. After the whole ordeal i decided we'd cancel bus service because they came at 7:10 Tuesday morning, so early, school doesn't start until 7:50. Actually Jordon is now preferring me being the chauffeur. Other than the bus situation, he had a great day at school, besides making one boy mad at him(but now they are becoming buddies, i think).

So we are all getting back into the school thing, it's kindof nice to have that schedule set back in again. The school is great and he can be taught there in so many ways that i don't know i could do.

I have officially passed my defensive driver course, oh, for those that don't know, i was pulled over before summer school started for not stopping completely at a stop sign. I was in a hurry to do a "meet the teacher" for Jordon's summer school, went in the wrong side of the school and was pulled over when i was trying to go the other side. So i have officially learned my lesson the hard way.

to be continued...so i started this post a couple weeks ago, so i'll try to finish it up.

The one big thing we've done, as long as it works out, is we've put both boys in the same room for bedtime, Jordon has been asking for it for a few months and i'm hoping it'll help Jordon not sneak in our room in the middle of the night. Of course he's such an early bird that it's affecting David's sleep a little, but we're adjusting, wish us luck!

I'll post pictures soon, just wanted to let everyone know we are still here and do blog every now and then. I think i should try to do it weekly, so i don't forget.
