Last weekend was crazy busy. Let’s jump into it, shall we? Friday (after I had posted the week’s photos) saw the penultimate cross country event. The Pumpkin Run, where kids run the mile course with the last stretch of the course lined with pumpkins. After the run kids get to pick a pumpkin to take home…
“What do you want for lunch?” I asked Xavier. It was just him (4 years), myself, and Tevye (5 months) at home. The other kids were either at school or who knows where. Before taking him to pre-school in the afternoons Xavier has lunch at home. I almost always ask him what he wants, but…
This past Saturday was a big day for Déla. It was her first gymnastics meet of the season, and her first in the new higher AA division. But before the meet she had Irish step dance. Here she is practicing her hard shoe. At her meet she demonstrated both that she belongs in the higher…
Remember last week when I mentioned I like seeing my kids during their lunch time recess?

Essentially it’s a two year program, which is fine, but separating them out and not having all-day preschool gets to be rather inconvenient. But that’s a different topic from…
Cub Scouts started back up again, and this year is the first year Ciaran is able to participate. Only things is, he is unsure about actually participating. At the Pack meeting he was given his first neckerchief as well as a Tiger Cub sticker. Thrilled? Not so much. August, on the other hand, was indeed…
Monday morning I emailed my doctor. Something was going on that worried me and I wanted to set up an appointment. Thing is, because I’m the stay at home parent child care is an issue and if there were tests to be done I wanted to make sure arrangements were made. I wasn’t prepared for…
I know it’s been a while. The start of the school year and the baby, well, it’s thrown us all for a bit of a loop. The main reason for this is Tevye. Here he is from just a couple of days ago. He’s 4 months old now. This past weekend we were eating dinner…
