Homework, Baseball and Parties

Wow, the 2nd week of September brought us a very busy week.  Austin got his 1st dose of homework.  It now comes home every Monday and has to be turned in on Friday.  I don’t remember doing homework when Jeff and I were in kinder, but apparently this is the norm now.  He is doing a great job, but it is keeping us busy trying to fit everything in along with a little fun before bed time.  Reese has discovered bread, so she got a carb fix while Austin dove right in to his first assignment.

Tuesday gave us our 1st baseball practice of the season.  Austin is on the Oakland Athletics and instead of T-ball it is coach pitch for 4 tries and then off of a T.  Practice was a little rough, but he did amazing at the game on Saturday and hit it the 1st pitch both innings!!

After the game we had a short break and then headed off to two birthday parties.  It was a busy and exhausting day, but a ton of fun.  Sunday was filled with errands and  a playdate with Drew.  I think Ella might have been more excited to have Drew over.  She wanted to be right there with them the whole time.

But, the best part was putting a safety rail on Ella’s bed.  She had been taking hours to go to bed since she kept getting out.  I have no idea why we waited so long, but that thing was up before nap and she hasn’t gotten out once since.  Sunday night was the first night EVER that all three kids were put to bed and stayed there.  No one got up once (except for Reese, but not till 11pm) It was heaven, a gift from God!!!
