Catching Up!



The first day of school came and went long ago.  The last week and a half has gone by too quickly.  I find myself missing being around Ana--since its been 24/7 for the last six years!! She leaves at 6:30 and gets home at 4:30. 
School has presented its own challenges to Matt and I--his mostly being learning all the students names--me--learning how to keep my mouth shut as an aid :) and how to deal with some very troubling behaviors (yes!! I'm in the 4 year old class)
Our house is coming along--only about two unpacked boxes remain.  There are some things hung up on the wall.  We went and looked at couches yesterday.  The yard looks a lot neater--though not entirely tamed.  We're still waiting another week for our split box springs--since the others couldn't fit up the stairs.  Ana's dresser also couldn't be squeezed up the stairs--Matt just cut 3 inches off the bottom.  We also decided to paint it before making the difficult journey--we won't be moving it again any time soon!
We've met some lovely older neighbors who've I've been taking baked treats to--they often ply us with fresh vegetables from their garden. 
This week we had three of us with colds and one with a stomach virus.  Thankfully we recovered enough on the weekend to head out to school tomorrow! 
I will try to do better--about taking pictures and posting.  Thanks for reading!
