Where, oh where, did September go?

Oh, wait, that's right! It was spent moving, and being sick (all of us!!) and then work and school starting and on and on and on and on!!

The last weekend of August we moved back home, newly expanded and fantastic. We are incredibly happy! We did all get sick the first week home, but somehow managed to survive. A few more things to be set up, a few items to be hung, and we should be settled!

In addition to that, Connor started kingergarten at Glebe Elementary, and he's had such a wonderful transition! His day is much longer now, and he's exhausted every night. It's marvelous! I have pages of work from school already, and it's only been 3 weeks.

The following week, Drew started school as well, and the first night we were treated to a two minute monologue of "and then I...and then I...and then I..."s from him. I had to turn around from the table I was laughing so hard.

Tucker is almost 6 months old and is still bald and toothless and happy as a clam! He laughs ALL THE TIME. It's so much fun! Of course, Drew isn't so hot at the behaving himself thing right now, and I know that little T will one day be like Drew in this way, but for now I'm in complete new-mom denial and expect that Tucker will always be wonderful, wonderful.

Tucker is also no longer the youngest baby in my extended family. Baby Felix joined the larger family yesterday, and there are several more babies on the way. Very exciting time for my family, that is for sure.

All right. Time to start making some Thomas the Tank Engine magic in preparation of Drew's birthday party...
