School Daze!

Well school has started here in Hippo Town!

Actually it started on Monday,but due to the craziness and constant going and of course my hubby's and I's date night, I didnt write... "Bad Lama... ". The girls woke up great yesterday, had a very yummy Breakfast Egg Casserole that we made the night before. We also made them their lunches. On Mondays it is "Munchie Mondays", so I made a lunchable type of meal with cookie cutter shape meat and cheese (tiny), celery and carrots ( the child with braces got tiny pieces of carrot), grapes and 1/4 banana, tiny crackers, and a couple of small chocolate eggs. They loved it and had fun showing their friends. Even our 14 year old. Thy came home thourghly pooped and just kinda hung out till my parents sent them to bed. They each had a great day, in a way. Our 2 elementary kiddos loved it! Had a blast! Our poor Middle schooler got to sit around and wait since the middle school didnt have schedules till mid-day. Not one of their best ideas. But then i am having issues with the Middle school. Our high schooler was lost... yup, she was in a state of lost and was pretty frustrated about it. Couldnt even find her locker or where the buses were. Thankfully she saw many of her old friends and has a few classes with them.

WHEW!
Today started out fairly well. Darling Hubby stayed up all night to make the Turkey Sloppy Joes for the kiddos lunches... dont worry Im not a slave driver, he works night shift. Breakfast was tiny blueberry muffins and a Breakfast smootie. Ok, the smoothie didnt go over as well as I wanted. 1 child out of 4 like it. In fact my 14 yr old announced, " Mom, this is the nastiest drink ever!". Pfft.. kids.... Off they went to school, and down mommy went for a nap! Ahhhh.... Well, 3 of the girls have gotten home and have raved about the Sloppy Joes! Now it is time to fill out the TON of paperwork the schools like to send home. I have 12 pages to fill out just for 1 child. Yikes! Thats 48 pages for all 4 girls! You would think that they would have it on word doc to download and fill out. Save a whole lot of paper (and my fingers)!!

And On That Note....

I look forward to this year, we seem to be fairly organized (so far), and waking up good. Their schedules are good and their teachers are nice. I keep my fingers crossed and daily prayers said! Onward to the next day!!
