Little Mid Year Life Update

From my previous post a few weeks ago, "What Time Is It?", you may already know we were preparing for school to start back in little over a week. Yes, it has already started back, the kids have been in session since August 11th. Anyone that has been following my blog for a while knows that during the fall (all season long) we are jammed pack with EVERYTHING. Between fall sports, birthdays, upcoming holidays. Life seems to go by pretty darn fast.  The past few weeks already have been extremely crazy as it is. This year all the activities starting with birthdays seemed to have started early. August first was Mr. Iain, 2nd, birthday.

Then a week after that we had Ryleigh's annual eye doctor appointment up north. Her visions I will correct if I am wrong but believe it has gotten better in one eye and slight worse in the other. However, her vision itself, isn't like mine. I am blind as a bat without glasses with an astigmatism. Ryleigh can see just fine but has an astigmatism. Throughout the trip we had a wonderful time as usual minus the fact that I have been having back issues. That's a whole other blog post. But Nana has kept the tradition alive and bought her babies build a Bears. That's not the best part. We walked in to build a bear. Brayden picked out a "Batman Bear" which that's the name he gave him but on certain bears/animals they were having a special. Buy one get one free. I kid you not. 

The day we got back from our destination was the day before school started. Yes School started early this year. 

I feel so bad because I absolutely thought this posted two weeks ago when I wrote it. But yes, the time of year has come we are going into Fall!  My favorite time of year yes, I LOVE FALL!

BUT HOPEFULLY THIS TIME IT POST! :)

Love always guys!

What time is it?

Well I'm sure if you live in the central time zone you would answer that question by saying... It's almost 11pm.  I'm sure by time I finish this post it will be way after 11 pm.

My answer is... It's that time of year where summer is coming to an end and school starts.  As of next Thursday to be exact.  I am beyond thrilled. Although I love my kids, this momma needs a little down time. 

I was reminded of how busy life is fixing to get because I just got the update that youth league volleyball sign ups is Saturday.  Last year was Ryleigh first year of playing and her team took home first place out of I want to say 6 teams. Their last game was on October 31st.  (Halloween I know, and it was rainy and chilly.) 

We have gotten most their school supplies well functional school supplies. I still need to go through the one bag and their back packs to make sure but I'm pretty sure they have all their functional school supplies. We still have to get their tissues and Ry has to have antibacterial wipes. {Such as the round containers of Clorox!} as well as hand sanitizer.  Brayden has already gotten hand sanitizer and he had to have the packages of antibacterial wipes. 

They are gonna get a few outfits to start school in but mostly they have clothes that still fit for the remainder of summer. Brayden we have to get his tennis shoes. Ry we lucked out with because my mom had recently bought a pair of new tennis shoes, those really comfortable aesics athletic shoes.  Well, my mom has wore them one time and Ry was like I really like those. Needless to say my mom usually buy the kids school clothes and shoes. But we do our best to do some and we decided so it wasn't on my parents to do. We'd get Braydens Tennis Shoes. 

But that's about it right now. I am gonna head to bed. We have errands to run tomorrow and one being Ry has a doctor appointment with an orthopedic specialist. 

Y'all come back ya hear!!!
