Holy #$%* I can not believe I have not posted anything for weeks. That is a very tiny indication of how super busy the Tomlinson household has been lately. I will try to play catch-up and post on all the craziness of lately. First and foremost our very own Mr. Tomlinson signed his first teaching contract and began his first teaching job a few weeks ago. He will be a 3rd grade teacher at Lansing Elementary School this year. We spent lots of time in his classroom the last few weeks trying to make it look awesome and get it all ready for kids to come to school. He has been going through all the natural first year teacher issues and really taking them all in stride. I have been so proud of him and how well he is dealing with all the pressure. I never in my life would have thought that Greg would ever end up in the teaching world but it is so obvious what a great fit it is for him. There are some very lucky 3rd graders that have our Mr. T for their teacher.
With Greg and I starting school that means the kids are back in the groove as well. Harper is back with Kelli and Hadley and loving it. Greg and I love that we are able to send Harper to someone we love and she loves. Kelli is a godsend for us and we are so lucky that she is able to watch our little sweetie. Briggs is back at Monticello Christan Childrens Center with his old buddies from last year. Of course the second day he was back at school he came down with a virus. He spent two days at home with a fever and sleeping the day away. We were lucky that Doe Doe came to save the day as we could not take off any days our first week back at school. It has been an adjustment getting back in the swing of things but we are hoping to hit our stride soon.
Those days that I had had it with the kids over the summer suddenly don't seem so bad when I am at school missing them. We had such an incredible summer and I love that we will always get to spend our summers together as a family. Sad that it is over but anxious to see what this year has in store for us.
Harper is really starting to talk all the time which is awesome because I am ready for ah ah ah at everything she wants to be over. She told me Peek a doo this morning when she peeked out of her blanket, so cute. She is loving animals, cats and dogs especially but can really do most animal sounds. Briggs is getting to be such a big boy. He still loves to be held, truthfully I love to hold him too but at 40 some pounds he is a lot to lug up our stairs. We are already talking about his birthday and Halloween, both should be quite exciting at the Tomlinsons house this year. We will have a 4 year old at our house soon, am I really that old!
Ok so no pictures to post right now because I have been a bad mommy and have taken very few pictures lately at least nothing post worthy. I am back on the blogging band wagon again and will be posting more regularly. Hope everyone has had a good start to the school year.
