Hey loves. We have been in school for about a week and we have some good routines and flows started. Now to keep them up. This is the first year that I feel the calm (minus the first day), I am getting into a good rhythm with the new school year, house life, working, and me time. It isn't perfect, but I feel good about it.
I am linking up with Jenn over at Overflowing with Thankfulness on the first Wednesday of every month for Currently. Also sharing my monthly reset. Let's jump in.
currently loving
Brian helped Anna and Austin build a fort in the woods next to our house out of dead trees and branches that were in the woods. The woods is not technically our property but we are letting the kids be kids until someone complains.
beginning
To decorate for Halloween. We are skipping doing just fall decorations, they will be thrown in the mix of all the Halloween. Ella has decided she wants a Halloween birthday party so we are decorating the whole house (potentially) and she is making a lot of the decorations.
ending
Of summer. We have had the weirdest summer when it comes to temperatures. Summer started and ended cold, there was a lot more rain than normal and more than normal extremely hot days. Bring on fall.
picking
Up all the messes. It feels like when the neighbor kids come over they dump out all the thigs, especially Anna's Barbies. I ask Anna to clean up her room and she says "I didn't make all this mess I need help" and it never works for her friends to help her. It is a no win battle that I end up helping or doing it all. I guess it is better than being on the tablets all the time.
posting
I need to recap out Disney vacation that was over a month ago. They will be coming soon I promise.
