I Survived!

The first week of the new school year is over! AND I made it! I'm utterly exhausted, my feet are sore, and my to do list has tripled but I made it. This week I was able to get up between 5:30 and 6am, get myself ready, prepare dinner and get it in the fridge, and get two other people up and going all in time to leave by 7:15am. Whew! I'm tired just thinking about it. I was able to reach my 4:15 goal this week too. That is ,I left school by 4:15 to get Emmett (give or take 5ish min).

Emmett is adjusting too. He loves daycare, but the first week of drop off with Eric resulted in a screaming baby. He was cool by Thursday, waving and saying "Bye Daddy have a good day." He still screams when I leave, which makes me feel awful, but I know it will get better soon. He is always happy to see us when we pick up which is great. However, he's so needy for attention by the time we get home, doing anything (like dinner) is near impossible without having him scream the whole time. Which is why, I have opted to making dinner or a least making as much of it as I can in the morning so all I have to do it put it in the oven or something really simple like that.

This weekend is a family one. Eric works the next three so we are trying to squeeze in quality family time. A trip to Apple Annie's to pick some peaches and apples and a celebration with family to celebrate Eric's cousin's daughter dedication. Should be great. Looking forward to it. Hopefully we'll get some awesome pictures to post. Have a great weekend!
