Birthday Party Bash- Tuesday Night

This morning started early…or I guess it felt like yesterday never ended. Payden kept waking up all night for some reason and the girls were awake by 5:30 am. Honestly why do kids wake up so early? Why can’t they just

get up at 8 am?? What is so horribly wrong with getting a little extra sleep??

I have a plan when my girls are teenagers and love to sleep in on Saturday’s

that I’m going to set their alarms for 5:30 am just as pay back….ahahaha!…

Yes it's that time again...Back to School. In some parts of the country like mine, kids returned to school as early as August 2nd. Needless to say I home schooled last year and it was a neat experience

but this year the kids returned to traditional school. Both my kids

have been actually really excited and today I walked my son to 3rd

grade. His teacher seems nice, and my daughter went to 8th grade and we

almost got lost finding some of her classes.

Now that the kids are back in school, it is time for me to head back to the gym and out on the roads. I am trying to reorganize my life around the nine hours I have free five days a week. A couple of days a week I go to the gym and swim, the other three days I walk...with my dog...he needs the exercise more than me. Huey has lounged around…

I am the second among 4 kids in my family (I am the middle kid, there's 3 girls and 1 boy: older sister, me, brother, little sister, so I am the middle girl, sometimes sucked). And all of you who have siblings know that sibling rivalry is real.…
