Go, Go, Go

That's all we do! It's like a non-stop merry go round. Work, school, football, and now we are going to add dance and girl scouts. I got shirts ordered for football, and of course signed up to help lead a GS troop. Jason swears I'm a professional volunteer! I want to be involved in my kiddos activities. My parents never were and I hated that. So I try to do as much as I can for their class, sports, ect. It was easier when I didn't work, but I'm not going to stop b/c I'm working. I have a flexible job, who is awesome. Plus, I told Jason that he will be more involved too. There is never enough Dad's involved in their child's education. He can read to the class just like I can.

Jonathan is a little less excited about his braces now that he's had them a week or so. He looks so stinking cute though! It's been quite an adjustment on his diet. What he can and can't eat, HOW he eats. He's never had to cut his food into such small pieces before!

Savannah went to the DDS today and had 3 teeth pulled, 1 capped, and a cleaning. It was a lot, but it needed to be done before the dental insurance ran out. She was bleeding pretty good at first, but it seems to have stopped for the most part.

Jason is getting into the swing of school. Chemistry is going to give him a run for his money. His adviser is stupid and told to take Chem before Algebra. Um, anyone know what you use to do the formulas? Oh, yea...ALGEBRA! Stupid woman. I know he'll do well, but he's a little freaked out right now. His other 3 classes are cake though, which is great.

Grammie keeps H while Jason is in school. You can't imagine how happy that makes me! I love my grammie so much and I want my kiddos to have that same relationship/love too. Plus, he gets to be with family and I save $500 a month in daycare!

I am half way to my bonus! I have to make sure another short sale closes tomorrow, then it's all mine. Well, not mine. Lord knows I could never spend that much money on myself no matter how hard I try. It would be nice though :O)

You are a professional volunteer but that is a good thing. There are not enough people in this world that volunteer for ONE thing so usually it's one volunteering for EVERYTHING!

I completely agree about not enough Dad's volunteer. I try to get Naaman to volunteer but he's not really a kid person, so he says. I told him last year in Noah's class I so rarely interacted with the kids because she had me doing projects that he could've done it.

As far as the chem thing, that does suck but just consider it a jumpstart for the algebra class which will now be easy because of this. ;-)

I know Joey has braces too for a while... He also had to have his jaw wired shut. Only person I know that could lose 15 lbs in 2 weeks eating ice cream...

Yay for the bonus!!!!
