Getting Dressed

Yesterday I was in my bedroom getting dressed and my husband was in there with me. Kylie comes to the door and my husband said to her " go out to the livingroom and we'll be right out, mommy is changing ". She looked at him and said "well Daddy you need to come out because boys are not suppose to see girls changing". We started to laugh and then we had to tell her that its different for Mommy's and Daddy's. She looked back at me and said " well boys and girls can't be in the same room when their getting dressed, not even mommy's and daddy's, that's just gross". Then she said " daddy close your eyes until mommy is done ". We just gave up on this one, she's just to serious.

Cyrus's Parent Teacher Conference

Yesterday I had a parent teacher conference for my son Cyrus. We moved here in January and he had to come to a new school from where he started. The teacher said she thinks he's adjusted just fine and has lots of new friends. I agreed with the teacher on that. Then she was telling me how he was doing in other areas. He does good with knowing his letters and numbers ( except when you get to the teen numbers ). She said he needs to work on writing them out though, he also needs to work on site words. I've noticed he has trouble with ryming words as well, nothing I'm too concerned about. Then she said he does great with patterns and charts. The last thing he needs to work on his learning to tie his own shoes. This teacher has an absolute fight if the kids can't tie their own shoes. I thought that kids learned this kind of stuff in Kindergarten. The teacher also told me some other things she's teaching these kids and you'd swear your kid was getting ready to go off to college or something. What has kindergarten turned into?? My son has to get up at 6:30am to be ready for the bus at 7:20am, he's gone to school all day and doesn't get home until 3:30pm everyday. This is a very long day for a kindergarten if you ask me.

Never Ending

Lately I've had a hard time finding time to put anything new on here. Everything seems to be really hectic. At times I feel like I'm being pulled in 100 different directions and never have any time for anything else. Over the past few weeks we've had doctor's appointments, WIC, parent teacher conference, and a few other appointments in there as well. Then in there we have church Sunday morning, Sunday night and then again Thursday nights. The past few nights I haven't been sleeping the greatest and I've been waking up with headaches. So with the restless nights and the headches I seem to wear out faster. In amongst this crazy life I have to fit grocery shopping in there. My 2 sisters that are in college came home last week and with everything going on I didn't see them much. They went back to college Monday and now they won't be back until May. Our friends want us to come over and visit, which we hardly ever have time for and then of course there's family that wants to see you as well. Where does it ever end??
