It's been several months since I posted. So I thought I ought to try to share a new post before the craziness of the holidays sets in fully. It can get pretty hectic and I know that I'll be spending most of my Sundays trying to not be crazy.
If you love pictures and such Rob has them on his Google + account. Lots of fun to be had there with the kids hiking, corn mazes and cousins visits.
The school year has gotten off to a good start. In fact fist quarter is over, and we are getting down to a solid routine as far as that goes. The only thing is with the time change it is dark so early that it makes me incredibly cranky. I need sunshine or it really affects my mood and total disposition.
Beth is in seventh grade, and she is just sailing a long. She finally got an art elective at her school, and she rocked it. Where she goes to school the electives only last a quarter, and because she is in band, it is harder to get the electives she wants in addition to band. Her grades are good and she has lots of friends and interested boys and she is juggling everything pretty well. I'm super proud of her.
Caleb is doing fairly well overall. He got the teacher we wanted for him, and it's made a huge difference in his year. He still has a hard time sitting still and concentrating, but his teacher gets it and him. He can work standing up and wiggling, and isn't expected to sit still hardly ever. This means a happier Caleb and a happier family.
Jacob is having a good year. He's in an accelerated math program where he skipped a year of math and it's definitely been a transition for him. However, I think he is doing fine in the class. (I say think since I can't seem to communicate with his math teacher.) He's showing a bit more his attitude at school this year, but he also has two of his best friends in class with him. It's awesome to see him doing so well overall.
Rob is still at his job. He's juggling things, and he is the technical support for his campus with their learning management system. Which basically means he's dealing with emails and solving problems at all hours and especially right before assignments are due.
I'm plugging along. I'm still working from home, juggling that with being a mom. I've had a cough this fall that seems to lag on forever, but I think I might be about over it. Finally. I mean it hung on, and on.
