The adventures of a family where everyone matters--it's a loud crazy life, but we LOVE it!

Class of 2024 and other random happenings...
Sam completed his first week of kindergarten, and when he came out on Friday, he was wearing this shirt:It just makes me feel old--I can't even imagine this little guy graduating High School but I know it will be here before I know it. THEN because it's still REALLY hot we hit the pool (explanation of Lindsey's outfit).
OTHER RANDOM EVENTS--This weekend starts the beginning of what we're calling the Boy Scout Gauntlet--7 consecutive weekends of overnight camp outs for some reason or another, we're kind of dreading it but there was no avoiding it, we'll see if we survive.
I took some wildlife with me to the post office the other day--a cheetah, a monkey and a butterfly to be exact. I HAD to get some stuff mailed and this is what the kids were wearing...and so into the car they piled! Sure I got funny looks by the few patrons at the small neighborhood post office but I LOVED it, loved that my kids hadn't been in front of the TV that afternoon but creatively playing together and loved that they'd been planning a "show" for my viewing pleasure!
Incidentally, Matthew is a handful and seems to be more so everyday! I've often heard moms in frustration tell how their children run right behind them and mess up what they've just cleaned--that was exactly my life this past week! He has an AMAZING knack for finding exactly what he shouldn't and for making HUGE messes, it's a good thing he's super cute. And we've just transitioned him from a high chair into a booster seat at the table in the kitchen and he couldn't be happier! He's a super good eater and loves being included in all the action of our busy family!
