Then there was one…


August 25th, 2010

It’s been a crazy, busy, fun summer, but now the kids are back in school. Not only has school started, but Miss Ada Jane is in kindergarten!

It’s been a long wait for her and she is so excited and loving it.

It is quite the odd thing to have just one child at home. It’s been 10 years since I’ve only had one, and I almost don’t know what to do with myself. Tyghe is loving it (though he hugs Ada everyday when she gets home – and told her he missed her after the first day). We did splurge a bit and bought a (used) chariot bike trailer. It came with a jogging stroller conversion kit, and also one for cross-country skiing. It’s been fun to use so far, and better exercise than driving the car.

Caemlyn and Zephram are both in 6th grade and Kezia is in 3rd grade. This is the only school year that I will have 4/5 of my kids all in the same school. Even crazier to think that next year I’ll have 2 middle schoolers!

*side note: I was quite disappointed in the current clothing styles for little girls, so in the 2 days before school started, I made Ada’s cute skirt. She had picked out the fabric months ago for “whatever”, but we both loved the way it turned out. You can’t tell in the pics, but it even has pockets that are finished the same as the hem of the skirt. Much cuter than the grunge stuff in stores right now.
