Too Much Stuff!

Ok....so this thing called work is getting in my way of being a fantastic and loyale blogger. Here is a pic from my latest install.....




Wheew! What a weekend! Let's see got up Sat morning and headed to my very first parent/teacher conference. I was soo excited to find out how my little guy was doing at his brand new school. I was let down easy when I was told he was behind the other kids because he cannot write out the entire alphabet at age 4. Excuse me.....isn't that what they teach in kingergarten.... not at age 3. Well not any more folks seems like if you do not put your little one in an advanced preschool program they will be far behind the other kids by age 5 that is for sure! So we have a little catch up to do, so last night there I sit at the kitchen table doing "homework" with my 4 year old! Don't kids already grow up too fast....why are we pushing them to grow up even faster! On the other hand when he looks at me with those little eyes and says "I want to know how to write my name like the other kids" I just melt! So homework it is....for the next couple months I know he is smart enough to learn it, I just have never exposed him to it yet...

Next we were off to my son's best friend's birthday party at Build A Bear.......then we went to show our family support at the Chili Cook off....If that wasn't enough for one day we went to the pumpkin patch to let the kiddo's run, play and pick out the perfect pumkin. After that we dropped my son off at his mamaw's then went over to the kinfolks' to eat, drink, and sit by the fire to celebrate the fall weather.

Sunday was time to do some scrapbooking! Although we were so worn out from the day before we didn't manage to get much done. Hopefully the next one will go better.....After that it was another bday party at a friends house, we had to cut that one short because I still had to get ready to go out of town for work again on Monday.

Whew! I told ya it was a busy, busy weekend!
