What a week!

We have been busy, busy, busy - lots of pic this week!

Last Thursday I got a call from my kids GI saying the results of Madeline's X-Ray were in, she was "backed up" and either he could admit her into the hospital to clear everything out, or that we could try at home with some Magnesium Citrate, we decided to try it at home first, and lets just say, this was done over the weekend - it worked without a hitch (thank goodness because I didn't want a stay in the hospital with her, she is really sensitive to things and I believe that would have hurt her greatly :( ).
Friday, Madeline had a eye appointment and Marshall got his first haircut. I am in shock that my baby boy is now 16 months old and it was time for a haircut. He did good, he was brave and didn't fuss too much.
Madeline's script for her glasses changed again, it went up this time due to she's been complaining about headaches and her eyes hurting when she's reading(from a +3.00 for the left and +3.75 for the right to a +4.00 for the left and a +4.75 for the right). We have ordered her new glasses and they should be here this week. The script is still less than what her eyes actually are due to they want her to still use her own focusing powers.

Saturday, a girlfriend and I went to a fiber spinning meet up. It's been over a month since I have spun, it was nice to get away for a few hours and hang out with other spinners and knitters. I did take some of my fiber that I got off my spindle there to show off. Once I am done spinning all of the fiber, it will be turned into a sweater for Marshall for this winter. I finished for my daughter this past week and took it to show off as well. (I am working on the skirt that goes with it - this is going to be her 5th birthday outfit. The pattern is out of Fairy Tale Knits book and the outfit is called Mermaid).

To top everything off, Madeline had her 1st day of Kindergarten at the private school she attends. She is going 2 days a week for the school year. She was a little timid at first, though she was there last year in their pre-school program. Different teacher and different room.

Ready to go to School!

Oh wait, this is a different class room!


I think I'll hide in my cubby for awhile.


There we go, time for circle/rug time and starting the school year off right.

And because Marshall was so cute Saturday night helping me put up groceries....(which means he takes things out of the cabinet, put things back in, takes them out, puts them back in - you get the picture)

  2. Marcie, you are right, a mother's job is never ending. I just hope I will be able to handle everything that comes with growing toodlers as great as you do. Your son is so handsome and your daughter is beautiful! How did you manage to have him not fuss so much throughout the hair cut? I still struggle with my 3 year old and since his hair grows so fast, he has to go once a month. My step daughter will be 4 this year but missed the timeline for preschool, she's shy too so I hope it goes well for her too.
