The kids start back to school in a couple of weeks. I feel like the summer has been long enough, but I'm always sad to see it go. I love it when it's warm and the days are longer. Life seems easier in the summer.
We received letters from S and A's school with teacher assignments. S is in a different class than her BFF. I'm hoping it works out for the better. I don't have any idea about A's teacher since last year is the first year the kids were at this school. 9:00 a.m. starts on Mondays still and I like that! Their assigned appointments for assessments are on 8/11. The first day is 8/16.
The day to complete Z's registration and pay fees, etc is 8/4. He seems to be eager to go back.
C goes to high school this year. She keeps changing her mind about Cross Country. One of her friends is participating and is pressuring her to be on the team, too. Everything in her life has social considerations!
They'll all play rec soccer this year. Four kids, practices, and games is going to be interesting! S will have a different coach since last year's coach isn't coaching after the hullabaloo with the tournament that ended last season. It really divided the team. I'm one of the bad parents. I don't think S's BFF is going to play and we relied a lot on her parents to take S to conflicting practices and games.
Next up, schedule doctor's visits for three of the four kids. Spend a fortune in school supplies..... Work out schedules with the grandparents for pick-ups and afternoon daycare.
Whew!

I got all our paperwork for the boys last week. Blake has decided to not play football and instead play soccer.(because of his Shoulder that he just had surgery on). His yearbook alone is $60.00 HOLY CRAP! I paid $35.00 for McKay's yearbook last year and it was a paperback! Whatever. I think that August might be the most expensive month for us! Plus my hubby is having foot surgery on the 3rd so technically I will have 3 children to take care of!LOL
