Brooke's first day of "school"

Well today we started out getting up about 6:30. The alarm was not set until 7. but I had terrible acid reflux and could not lay there anymore. Brooke did not want to get up, but decided since everyone else was, she would, especially when she was reminded she was going to school. She was ready to go right then, but of course we still had 2 hours before we were to leave.

I took pictures of her and her outfit she picked out yesterday morning, to wear, and yes William had to have his picture taken too. It was a very good day, and I really enjoyed spending some time with her and not having Jealous William taking over the situation. Not thatI don't love spending time with him also, but sissy needs some one on one momma time. We got to take a little ride on a "real" school bus, that was the biggest thrill for all the children. Some of them will be riding the bus to school and home, but since Brooke is only 3 and considered Home Based, she only goes to school 2 days a week, so I have to transport her. I would anyways, because she is only 3 and there are no seat belts, and I can not see her riding a bus with all the other Elementary kids. It's a momma bear thing. We had taco salad for lunch and she was about the only child who just pigged out on every bit of it. The others were not too sure they wanted anything to do with the lettuce or tomato's, Which are Brooke's favorite foods. Being an older mom I did not wait for the doctor to tell me what and when I could feed my kids. When I felt they were ready I started them on stuff. She was only 2 1/2 months old when she had her first cereal, from a spoon at that. It sure has paid off because she eats like a champ and loves most all food. Of courseI did the same with William, but he is just now getting over his picky eating. I just continue to offer him a variety and figure one of these days, he will decide that is is pretty good.

Yesterday I made a baby sweater and will be making more. Just not right now. I need to get busy on some more afghans, but needed a change of pace.

I do believe it will be an early night for me, because boy am I tired. Not sleeping well all night and then getting up too early has did it for me. Brooke has fallen asleep on the chair, and I am hoping that William will decide to go to sleep too. Then I do believe I will stretch out on the couch for a few, myself.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day...........
