School Starts in Two Days

Kevin starts his first day of school on Thursday. Tomorrow we are going to his orientation and we will find out which class he is in. Michaela's orientation is next Tuesday and her first day is the following Tuesday. I sure hope they gave Kevin the morning session. It will make for really long days on Tuesday and Thursday if not.

Kenna is doing really well. She can sit up rally well now. She does have some balancing issues, but she can sit up with a straight back. She likes her walker and can maneuver around the kitchen and to the TV room and back again full circle. She has figured out how to unstick herself if she gets stuck on something.

Kyle is doing really well too. He says more words and is very vocal. He talk to us as if he is carrying on whole conversations with us. He is very animated when he talks. He furrows his brow and talks with his hands. It is very cute. All we really hear is blah blah blur na nu blah uh. But he really acts like he is speak perfect English. I just reply, "Really? Wow!" He seems perfectly happy with that. I am not really sure what I am validating when I say that.

Kaela is still singing a lot. Maybe she's inherited a great voice from both her Aunt Karensa and her Grandma Tessie. She sings every time she hears music, sometimes just naturally picking up the music of the chorus which she will hum. Then, when she picks up the words, she full on sings. The theme to the Candyland computer game is her favorite right now. "Candyland is waiting for you. Yummy gumdrops and chocolate treats...." Very cute too.

Well, I am getting more excited about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I have scoured the Stampin' Up! website for all kinds of info and tips. I am going to hold an Open House to introduce my business on October 1 down at my parent's house. I don't know anyone up here yet, but I hope to meet more people once school starts and Kevin will be playing soccer. I am excited about it all. I have a lot of work ahead of me to get this business off the ground. I have a website sponsored by Stampin' Up!, but it has personal info listed on it, so I won't post it here. If you want the URL, e-mail me.

There was a big fire near my parents house, and some streets got evacuated (not theirs). Luckily for my family, the ocean breeze blew the fire over the mountain in the opposite direction. Unfortunately, a few hundred acres burned. Fortunately, no homes were damaged.

Keith is doing well. Work is a bit slow and boring right now, but I am sure it'll pick up.

Can't think of any other news right at the moment. So, goodbye for now!
