So it's only 839am and I already feel like so much has happened in my day that I need to blog about it. If my morning was this exciting..I can't wait to see what the rest of the day holds for us! Everyone slept in today. I had a really hard time getting up. But finally I did get up and it was before everyone else for once. I decided not to shower right away and just let the kids sleep in as long as they would. When Mikhail finally got up it was about 7am and his bus comes at 740am..so we were rushing a little bit. But I got his lunch packed. He insisted on having a pb&j, apple sauce, and a little debbie just like I used to have when I was little :) He had been begging to pack his lunch..so Tim went out at like midnight last night and got him a Spiderman lunch box which he absolutely loved! And I made his lunch this morning. I bought this dinosaur cutter to make his sandwhich look like two dinosaurs and it takes the crust off..which he's not a crust eater. I also got him a hard case for his sandwhich so it wouldn't get smashed. His case had a skate boarder on it..so I think he's going to think he's got a cool lunch :) We had to pack today because I didn't think he'd like what they were serving.
His Noni came over this morning and brought him a special treat for his day. She froze a gogurt and by the time he has his snack it should be unthawed for him. He got a kick out of that. It was red day at his school today. All the kids in his class are supposed to wear red because that's the color they are going to be focusing on..and Anne told him that's her faveorite day..it made him feel pretty special!
Anyways I waited at the bus stop with him like I do every morning. When he got on the bus he took forever to find a seat. I'm going to have to talk to him about that because I'm sure it drives the bus driver crazy..and then he chose a seat that already had two boys in it. lol he's still learning..but I'll have to talk to him about it. Then as soon as the bus left I drove to his school to make sure he got off the bus ok and into the cafe for breakfast. Yesterday when I got to the school, he hadn't gotten off of the bus yet..so I waited for him and walked him in. Today by the time I got to the school he had already gotten off the bus and went into the school. So I walked to the cafe to look for him and he was already standing in line talking to some other boys that were in line. I was so proud of him for knowing what to do and doing it. So since I had checked on him and knew he was fine I went to talk to his teacher. I wanted to make sure she knew that he packed his lunch and that it was in his book bag because I didn't think he would remember. She told me that for half of the day they'll be switching Mikhails teacher because him and the other boys are too rowdy..so they are going to try to break their group up. So in the am he'll still have Mrs. Peer and in the pm he'll have Mrs. Steager. I feel bad that he's being like that. But I told her that we couldn't send Mikhail to prek last year and explained about having the twins..and how it was just too hard. He probably could have used that structure to prepare him. But she said a lot of kids didn't do prek and that he would be fine. I know this week will probably be hard for him. He's not used to getting up so early in the morning and being active all day, but I know he'll get the hang of it and it will become part of his daily routine. I definately think that putting him in the all day class was the best decision for him. If he's playing for so much of the class already..he wouldn't have been getting very much from the half day. Atleast now he has more time to learn things.
After I talked to his teacher I went back to check on him and he was sitting a table full of boys with his lunch tray and he was laughing and eating with them. It was the cutest thing ever! He's so little yet he's such a big boy! Really melted my heart! I think he's going to be ok ;) I think tomorrow I can let him get on the bus without following him to school.
While I was gone this morning taking Mikhail to school, Makenna picked up the living room for me. Maddox had made a mess wiith my candle lids and she picked them all up without me telling her to. Then when I brought the babies down..they wanted a juice box just like her..so she sat down with them and and opened them for them. Maddox had gotten them out of the fridge..and I was holding Mady..he remembered to get her one too. I thought that was so sweet! You can definately tell he's a twin! But both of the babies sat down infront of Makenna and patiently waited for her to put the straw in thier juice box..it was adorable! She's really being a great helper. I love that she's taking on that role. She's taking on the big kid role now that Mikhail's in school all day and she's the big kid. I'm really proud of her! It's weird how much our day has changed with Mikhail going to school. Makenna does really have any one to fight with..so she's not crying all day and the babies are calmer..and the day is just over all quieter. I miss him like crazy though. I can't imagine what it will be like when Makenna starts full day school!
Ohh and I don't know what we are going to do about the room situation at this house. At first Maddox wouldn't stop opening his door so we had to put a door knob lock on it. Well that did the trick for that. Maddox has pretty much had that room all to himself the whole time because he sleeps right behind the door with his ear to the floor and anytime he sees you walk by his room under the crack in his door or hears you he cries. Well I couldn't sneak Mikhail in the room like I had planned because Max slept right behind the door and would wake up the second I opened it. So the big kids were falling asleep in my bed and then Tim would move them to the floor. I hate them sleeping on the floor..they don't mind it, but I don't think it's fair. Well yesterday Maddox climbed the latter of the bunk bed..and he had the fan going in his room..he can't sleep in there any more. It's too dangerous. I just don't know what I'm going to do about the sleep arrangements anymore. I guess I'm going to have to put Mady and Max in the same room again..but Mady sleeps more than he does and I know he's just going to mess with her. Putting him in a pack n play does nothing because he climbs right out of it..so I can't put him in that in my room..there's way to much for him to get into in my room. It's just really hard. We really need atleast four bedrooms. I sware the second you think you have one thing figured out in this family..it all changes and there's a whole new set of problems!
