The baby ended up falling asleep on me at 8:30 so I went back to sleep until the dog woke me up an hour later. I did my bbm and showered so now to decide what to do. nam2013 thanks, I think I will pick up stuff for s’mores. I’m trying to remember in a few weeks we will be so busy we will miss these boring days. Just got the hockey/gymnastics schedules and waiting on soccer. |

I've had crazy, Rich Asians on hold at the library forever. You guys just reminded me to check on that.
I had a crazy day yesterday with Evie's teacher Meet and Greet, and a corn boil at the high school. I'm guilty of not being as involved at Evie's school because she was only going to be there for two years and then she's moving over to our elementary (she goes to pre-school at another elementary school across town). When we walked in everyone there seemed to know who she was and was so happy to see her. It doesn't surprise me because she will talk to literally everyone she meets. I felt bad and made a mental note to make sure to do something at her school this year.
We got rained out at the corn boil and were left huddling under a very small tent thing. The kids had a blast running around in the rain though, so 🤷

I got H to fall asleep watching videos of himself. We were supposed to be at the party at 10:30 to help set up but my MIL saw us this morning and said we could show up whenever.
She’s the best.
I don’t want to be late though so I’ll wake him up in an hour. He’ll still be cranky but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

You might get new shoes and clothes for him out of it too. She has an addiction to shopping. |

Atticus has been attentive to the babies lately and it's so cute.
Yesterday he came downstairs and announced "X is awake and he needs a grown-up right away. He really wants his bottle."
Last night I went into the kitchen and forgot to grab the baby monitor and he followed me with it and said, "SOMEONE needs to watch Poppy!"

We are at the Trampoline park with my nephews. It’s our annual cousin sleepover tonight. C had he winning hit in a dodgeball game by hitting an unsuspecting 14yo. He was so happy. It was really cute the whole group running to give him high fives.

I'm kind of obsessed with the kind pressed bars. The strawberry ones and the banana ones. I eat at least one a day. I got overly excited when I saw them at Costco in a big box.

Just filled in my September calendar. Without soccer for DD and T, we are free on September 2 lol. On Tuesdays, we will be home by 6:30! All other nights are 9pm or later. I think I should talk to DH about taking on a few sister wives.

PSA The Children's Place is having jeans on sale. They still have adjustable waists so all those with skinny tall kids can find decent fitting jeans.

Morning, mh stayed at a buddy's last night since they went out. He's meeting us at a house showing. Then hoping to get to the pool if the storms hold off. I have to polish up my final paper for a class and then I'm done with classes for 1.5 weeks. I plan on watching all the Netflix. What are you going to see today? Saw 2 in the town over. One that is kind of on a triangular corner lot which I thought I'd dislike, but it was a pretty big yard and was kind of private. It's pretty small though, 1900sf including the basement, but could move in with just some paint and has a great flow and mud room situation. We shall see.. |

This is why I need permanent maternity leave. At least I’m not worried about fitting in all the household stuff. Unfortunately, DS has 6 years until he can drive, you have to be 17 here. |

Here you can get a restricted driving permit at 15 and then your full license at 16. |

Between 40-60 lessons, a theoretical exam and a practical exam. |

Here it cost $28 and you just have to pass a written and driving test. Actually you can get a learning permit at 14, but a licensed adult has to be in the car with you and you have to wait 6 months before upgrading to the restricted. That license allows you to drive alone from 6am-10p (or with an adult in the overnight hours). |
