Weekend leftovers - it will have to do

This week has been INSANE!  A quick rundown of our events:

• Addy started all day kindergarten.  Heartbreak. 
• PTO business has required my time nearly every single day this week.  Yes, every day. 
• Dance classes started, and we had to stop the dance performance team.  So, we are back to one night a week for dance.  Both girls, two different classes, same studio.  
• Soccer practices = two nights a week
• First soccer game was today.  Addy scored a goal!!!  Eligh made a couple stops as goalie - yes, my little string bean stopped some soccer balls.
• Cardiologist appointment location was wrong (blame insurance company for giving me a number that did not match the actual location).  Rescheduled for next week.  
• I am most proud of myself for having a home cooked meal planned, prepared, and eaten by each of us (even if at different times and or locations) this entire week.  It can be done, just takes quite a bit of planning.  
• I need to discuss Addy's first week of school and all that we have learned thus far.  
• Before I can get to all that, the twins turn FOUR on Monday!!!!  
• Two back to back weeks of an emotional roller coaster for this overly, sensitive mommy.  

Wordless Wednesday - Excitement

Addyson heads to kindergarten

And....it happened.  Sigh

The end of summer

We spent the morning (before the heat) at the playground, running, playing, sliding, swinging, hanging, and riding bikes.  I hope today along with all the memories we made this summer have filled my three little ones with joy.

Her bag and lunch are packed, but her heart is heavy with sadness.  

Good night my little one, tomorrow is a big day for you and our family, as it is time for mommy and daddy to let you grow.  

Meet the teacher night - a little late

Thursday evening the three kiddos and I went to meet Addy's teacher.  Addy did not say one word to the teacher, but declared when she got home that she is so excited to go to school.

I have a feeling these two are going to need some adjusting being apart from each other

Who knew Kindergarteners would have lockers?  

As much as she was excited that evening, she has been having random meltdowns thus far about heading to school.  Sigh.

Friday Night Leftovers - drinks it is

• This has not been a good week.  
• Stress levels through the roof. 
• I had three days of PTA madness.  
• Addy had her first dance team (different than regular class) practice.  At some point the little gum drop will have to learn the routine without assistance.  
• Kinsley got her referrals lined up for the cardiologist and pulmonologist; one is next week the other in October.  
• I got back on the treadmill this week and hope to at least exercise three times a week more regularly.
• Follow up from my vein procedure was a ten minute conversation and check of the leg.  All is well.  
• I had meet the teacher night last night, and Addy did not say one word to the teacher.  But, when we got home she said she was so excited to go to school.  Less than a handful of days left until we send her off.  Sigh.
• With all that happened this week, drinks with some ladies are awaiting me this evening and it can't come soon enough.  
• May you all enjoy your last weekend of summer.  We have quite a bit planned and I am hoping it goes slowly as I am a ball of nerves sending my oldest to school.

Spelling assistance

If you were to make a sign that reads:  "I am a Kindergartener" would you spell it as kindergartener or kindergardener?

I have seen both ways and am not sure which is correct.
