hello september!

OMG (I really need to stop saying that, started as a joke and now I can’t stop) – I am so happy that it is finally september. I feel like it has taken forever to get here. Don’t get me wrong, we had an amazing summer full of fun but I am ready to move on.
I am looking forward (read: can’t wait, this week has felt forever long) to the holiday weekend. Our only plans (besides the TTU game tomorrow night) are to work on colin’s new room (read: big boy room). It is going to be amazing. He is one lucky little boy – he loves to go in there with us and work which usually involves him hammering the carpet or playing with the tape measure. He takes his work very seriously. I really want to get most of his room finished this weekend and as soon as we do I will post some pictures. When we finally get him moved over we can actually start on the still nameless little brother’s room (colin’s current room – nursery).

Next week is colin’s "first" day of school – how cute is that. Even if he goes to “school” year round, I am still so excited. He will be in the 2-year old class this year – no more infant class, toddler 1, toddler 2, etc. I will of course be taking cheesey pictures of him on his way to school on Tuesday. I started last year and what is the point of a tradition if you don’t keep up with it? Plus I like to see how much he has grown from the beginning of one year to the next.

I also have an OB visit coming up – the dreaded gestational diabetes/glucose test, which is not really dreaded anymore. Been there, done that – it’s not super gross like everyone says. It is a small drink that kind of tastes like melted popsicle. Have to remind myself not to eat powdered donuts before my appointment, ha!

Bunco starts back for me next week too (we take a break for the summer months). Before we know it October will be here and that is one of my most favorite months of the year. Until then I will enjoy (hopefully) less 100+ degree days and will be looking forward to our first cool front of the year – whenever that will happen.  Happy September!!!
