FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL...2010-2011


PLAYING WITH HIS TEACHER


MY LIL MAN...




MY 3RD GRADER

MY 1ST GRADER


MY SCHOOL GIRLS!!

Well the first day of school came and gone. The girls were soooooo nervous. Alex couldn't even eat breakfast. LOL When we got there, Alex would not let me take pictures of her. I told her if she didn't let me take one picture I would embarrass her. LOL So she took one, but it was a " get this over with" picture. hee hee. Jackie, on the other hand, let me take pictures. She was really quiet and she looked scared. She wouldn't stop giving me hugs. lol At the end of the day, they both said they had a great day and really liked their teachers. I knew they would.
Mikey, had his first day of German Kindergarten today. He loved it. It was only for an hour today, and I was in the room being a passive parent. He was very shy at first, but my friends little girl is in the same class, and she showed him the ropes. We are going back today for an hour again, he is thrilled. Next week, I think I might get to leave him for like 2 hours. So that will be two hours to myself...YEAH!!!
I went to the high school and middle school to get a packet for subbing, the middle school is not looking but the high school is. I walked into the high school, and I was so intimidated,lol. Most of these kids were much bigger than me. hee hee. I hope I will get it, after I do the massive paper work for it.
All in all, yesterday was a great day. The kids had a blast, although I was one tired mamma at the end of the night!! Love you all!! xoxoxoxoxo

END OF THE SUMMER EVENTS....












My big girl!!!




All grown up... :(





My silly kids....





DATE NIGHT WITH MIKE!!





Jackie's First tooth MISSING!!!

WOW! Has it been that long since I have written a new blog? I guess the time has slipped away from me. We have been really busy lately, that I have not been able to sit down and write. Sorry for the delay. I guess I just have been to tired to write...LOL Comes with being a mom.
Lets see, a lot has happened since I last wrote. Jackie lost her first tooth(second is about to come out any day now), learned to ride a two wheeler, and is reading so well. Alex, started soccer, as well as Jackie, and is loving it. Mikey, is getting bigger by the day, he can ride a big bike, with training wheels of course, looks like Santa might be bringing him a cool big boy bike, he is also preparing for German school. He starts Monday, as well as the girls. I think we are all ready for school. Mikey is super excited, he tells EVERYONE, that he is starting German school. Yesterday, I took the kids to get haircuts, Alex has a new look this year. I will post pics later. They are excited to wear their "back to school" clothes and accessories. Mikey is excited to wear his backpack. LOL This is gonna be a fun year, I can feel it.
We also went to an amusement park called Europa Park. IT is about an 2 hr drive from here, so we got to see a little bit more of Germany, So pretty. We accidentally drove through France to get there. It was funny because we didn't know and we didn't have passports or our international drivers license. Of course Mike was calm and I was really anxious. I was scared they would detain us....lol All was well, Alex thought it was cool to be in France. Europa Park was a lot of fun, a big knock off of Disney, I think, but fun. The kids had a blast and were really daring. That was like our end of summer adventure, next summer will be more adventurous, God willing.
We are all good, I was looking for a job, had a couple of offers, but nothing seemed to be feasible for our family, with daycare and the kids school. So hopefully I will be finding something soon. Maybe its just not my time to work right now. I am going to apply to be a sub at the kids school or Jr high, don't know which one yet.
Mike is good, working a lot. He loves his dog and he is getting settling in real nicely. He is starting up his Fantasy football league. He is the commissioner, I guess and is going to LOVE it.
, tomorrow is the first day of school for all the kids, I will most definitely report back tomorrow. They are really excited!!! So am I......LOL Well, I hope everyone had a great summer and is preparing for Fall, my favorite time of year! Love and miss you all!! Above are some pictures of some of the events that took place since the last post!
