I can't believe J is almost 4. Summer has been exhausting since I am home but really good. J is talking so much. He is getting speech and OT now.
He is also pee potty trained and night trained which as you know is huge!!!! Poop is still hit or miss but I feel so much betyer about school now.
We finally moved him into a toddler bed at the beginning of July. Yes i made it tk 3 years 10 months in a crib. He does amazing in it, doesnt get out without us inthe room. He yells for us if he needs us. No nap anymore but he sleeps 8 until 630 or 7 which is amazing.
Hes been doing swimming lessons and is a fish. He kicks and swims and laughs and outs his head under no problem. We start soccer next week which im looking forward to but practices are twice a week 630 to 730. We start bedtime at 7 or 715 and wint get home until 745 these nighrs so we will see how that goes.
We went to my parents twice overnight as our vacation this year. Once we went 3 days whenthey werent there they we went for a weekend when they were. It was actually great since they have a million toys, a swingset, and a pook. Very relaxing and we didnt have to bring much.
I start work the 18th, the kids start the 25th and J starts the 30th!!! Im nervous and excoted. They opted for masks optional which has me worried but we will see what happpens.
I miss yiu guys and i want birthday photos!!!

R had a good birthday weekend.
On Friday, I took her class party supplies. Then at lunch I brought the McDonald’s - the mobile app had $15 for 40 nuggets and 2 large fries. The kids loved it. I got paw patrol paint with water books for the favors - remember those books? She had to have party hats and blowers.
She woke up Saturday on her a actual birthday and came to my room wearing her hat and blowing the blower. We went to an animal thing yesterday and fed animals from our car, then she got to feed goats carrots. She said that was her favorite part from yesterday. After we went to my brother’s cabin for a few hours.
Then today was her party. She said the ice cream and cake was her favorite.
Two more weeks left of daycare. She cried the other day when I told her it was almost over. She loves her teacher so much. I bought her teacher a couple of things on Etsy and got her a gift certificate to a plant bar, because she likes houseplants.
I pretty much got all the school supplies for the kids. R is pretty set on clothes. I picked up clearance long sleeves before Spring and then she’ll have hand me downs. She’s super picky on clothes and people got her a bunch for her birthday - she’s pretty much a Tom boy and I don’t think she’ll wear the stuff that was bought for her.
Her 4 year appointment is Wednesday. I bet this will be the fourth year that she doesn’t talk to the doctor. I’m surprised the doctor doesn’t make me a show her a video of her talking just to make sure that she can talk..

Hi guys!! I miss chatting with everyone.
All is going fine here, gearing up for school and having a decent summer. We went up to VT last week to visit my bestie and spend time with her family, it was so nice. It’s beautiful up there and it felt amazing to escape from Covid in a way. I realize it’s everywhere but it’s different up there than home.
M is a hoot. She has one of those laughs that when she starts, I can’t stop laughing with her. She is bossy and demanding and so attached to me, I’m ready for some separation lol. Fucking Delta has me all worried though. I didn’t expect to be more nervous this year than last.
I saw an ENT for what my PCP thought was maybe fluid in my ears and annoying off and on allergies for a year plus. Turns out I’m allergic to basically nothing except a minor cat allergy (I do not own a cat) and ears look perfectly fine 😑 soooooo no idea what the constant annoying symptoms are.
M’s birthday was good, we are doing a joint party with D1 and just having immediate family next weekend.

Happy Birthday August babies! It’s crazy they are 4 now.
L learned how to ride a bike with no training wheels a few weeks ago. Now that’s all she wants to do! Her brother is almost 7 and still uses training wheels so he’s a bit jealous of her speed with none.
She’s repeating her preschool class from last year bc of her birthday being after the cutoff. But maybe she’ll follow the rules better this time? Fingers crossed. My girl has a mind of her own a lot of the time.
I also have her signed up for soccer this fall. She’s super excited for her pink soccer ball and socks.
As Mom, I can’t wait for school to start, even though I have major COVID anxiety. My kids just so badly need a break from each other.

Hi all! N turned 4 yesterday (posted some pics on the private board) and it was a lovely day with just the 3 of us.
I really hope 4 is better than 3. He has such a hard time managing his emotions - mainly anger / frustration - that the hitting has really ramped up lately. Just with us though (at least). But I’m still so over it.
But he is also such an inquisitive and funny little guy. The shit that comes out of his mouth sometimes just kills us. And he is a generally happy kid.
Naps are hit or miss. He desperately needs one to not be a cranky mess with a meltdown before bedtime but if he naps too late then bedtime takes forever and if it’s not long enough then he’s a bigger cranky pants the rest of the day. Lord help me.
I miss my baby but also it’s so fun to watch him grow!
