Stitch

Tucker is also known as "stich" this week.  Last Tuesday I was taking the afternoon off to take him to meet his teacher, visit the chiropractor and get ready for school!  I was just about ready to leave school when I had a phone call from mom, well I silenced it and thought, I will call her later!  I was in the lunch room with lots of kids and adults.  Soon after my sister came to tell me to call mom, she was at Denny's and Tucker had cut his knee and probably needed stitches.  Therefore I called Brandon and asked if he could go assess the situation.  He headed that direction and I headed North.  When I called the doctors office they told me we might as well go to ER the doctors were in meetings and busy!  Therefore I picked up Tucker and we took him to the hospital.  Brandon packed him in and they checked him out, told him he would need stitches and that they were busy.  Tucker proceeded to take a 2 -3 hour nap in the hospital bed and I relaxed, called and canceled all appointments!  Around 3 :30 they came in to stitch him up and we were dismissed!  We quickly went bu the school and saw the teacher then we went home and I didn't golf that night we were spent and ready to be home!!  Therefore we have washed the wound twice daily and new bandages twice a day.  He has done a great job and we get to see about taking them out Friday!  The knee has been a little challenging since they told us not to let him pull them out! When we got home and he wanted to ride his bike we told him no since he can't bend it and he said, " I can't do anything anymore!"  He didn't realize it was only for 10 days.  Therefore he is hoping to get them out Friday and he will match his dad and have a scar on the right knee!!!!  I will try to get pictures uploaded soon!

1st Days of School

 Tayden started 2nd Grade on Tuesday and has had  a pretty good week, a little tired and grumpy, but ok!

 Tucker started Kindergarten on Thursday and was sleepy last night.  He also started with 7 stitches (story to come)

Here are the boys on Thursday morning, new shirts, new shoes, new backpacks, cold lunches!!!!  Ready for a new year!!!

Boy Update

Tayden 2nd Grader - He enjoys hunting, watching hunting, snacking, he has a sweet tooth, he likes to play with older kids, he enjoys drawing and making things.  Tayden and I can have our frustrating days, we can clash very easy and other days we get along great!  He is a pretty soft hearted, caring but he has a temper and sometimes enjoys making his brother scream!!!  Tayden also learned how to make microwave popcorn this summer!!
Overall he does a pretty good job at home helping out and he is growing!!!

Tucker Kindergartener - He enjoys playing with toys, he is big into rodeo things, he doesn't always make it through the night in his own bed he is usually on the couch or in bed with Tayden in the morning.  Tucker and I get along some days and other days he just needs a nap!!!!  He does pretty good unless he is tired or hungry then he is OFF!  Tucker is sometimes caring and knows the correct choice just doesn't always make it. He is full of energy and a true boy!

We love them both and it is amazing how fast this 3 month summer has went!!

Back to School

I go to the mailbox and get my mail and there is the "Class List".  To some people it is just a little group of people put in the same room for 1 year of school, but to to a teacher, IT IS THE NEXT YEAR OF FUN, EXCITEMENT, LEARNING, GROWING and CHALLENGES!!!  Therefore I suppose it is time to go get my classroom ready and some organizing done, so the fall will be successful!  25 kiddos are going to be excited, sad, happy, eager, and ready to learn in 9 short days and ready or not, I will be there!!!!  with a smile, .... and positive attitude,..... and we have a new playground.  Won't that be fun!!!
The boys at this house are kinda excited, but ready to see their friends!!  They will have Mrs. Thompson, and Mrs. Hutchings!!!!
