Wow, so many changes!

So it is official the kids have been in school for a little over a month and we are finally getting a routine down. Homework is a little different than at their previous school; they are more in charge of time management but there seems to be less homework. The little ones are adjusting to their big brother and sister being gone; especially since they get more one-on-one time with mom. Austin had his evaluation with Early Intervention and meets his speech therapist next week, I can't wait for him to talk more and actually understand him. Ava is getting very feisty and independent. Alex is enjoying Boy Scouts. Dad and Alex had their first camping trip; it was fun watching them set up but also fun to leave the bugs, specifically, the daddy long legs who crawled on me. Addi starts Girl Scouts this week, hopefully she likes it. I am trying to cook a few new recipes and getting crafty for Halloween. Tonight was Chicken and Dumplings, pretty much just Dad was liking it. I am starting to get frustrated with the picky eaters or lackluster response to new foods. I definitely need help in the cooking dinner department.
