B has his preschool graduation this morning. He has a little speech to say to welcome everyone and he's so excited!

Ari's graduation is next weekend, I hope I don't cry!

It's allllllmost the weekend!

Although, I'm not totally looking forward to Saturday. MH has an event planned where he will be gone all day.... so I'm solo parenting all day. It's supposed to be like 95* on Saturday. It would be ideal to go to the beach or something, but I don't know that I want to tackle taking both kids to the beach by myself. I guess we could just do the pool in the yard....

I just found out about a dinosaur exhibit this weekend about an hour away, it looks pretty fun so I think we will do that!

imimahoney all the moms cried during Daniel's graduation. I knew I would for sure, I was just happy I wasn't the only one!

Dance recital day! Yesterday's rehearsal was...bad lol. There's another A in her class, and they switched them in the line up and both of them were so confused. I hope they get the right order today. She sure looked super cute in her costume though and thanks to YouTube she had a perfect sock bun!

Second week of summer vacation and I just booked two more weeks of summer camp for Andrew. Lol. He was a horrid child for the first week of break, the one with no camp. He was just SO rude and mean, a disrespectful jerk. (I'm saying that in the most loving way, but holy shit child, it was just awful) This week, he had VBS in the mornings and the difference in his behavior has been astonishing. He just does SO much better with structure and some time with other adults and kids. He was sweet and kind. He asked to bring his teacher flowers this morning, and two of the kids (new to him) asked if they could have a playdate. Night and day from last week. My little Jekyll and Hyde.

muppetinma, I looked up summer camps here on day 3 of summer, it was that bad lol. I couldn't find any for her age!  I'm so putting her in one part of next summer and I'm super excited about it already. Even H is bahaving worse with her around all the time, she desperately needs a lot of peer time and H doesn't cut it.

My personal favorite from week one is when we went to a science museum with friends.  He and his friend were running and he tripped, about ten feet away from me.  He proceed to start screaming and crying, demanding to know why I threw him to the ground.  That was fun, in front of total strangers.  I'm still waiting for somebody to come take him away from me because of all the false allegations.

I leave for Vegas Saturday. I just went through my closet and everything is either too big or frumpy mom. Ugh. I don't even know where to shop in person anymore!

Ok so, we are under contract! But, it's contingent on us selling our house fairly quickly. My husband is going balls to the wall packing our shit and getting our house fixed up to list next Friday. I need some MAJOR "your house is going to sell quickly" vibes. I really hope someone falls in love with the garden and fruit trees and backyard.
My course is crazy intense here in Dallas too, I have hardly a moment to spare and having this stress is just killing me. The kids are also having a hard time, and my MIL is about to go to the loony bin back at home. I'm trying to get everything done during the week so I don't have to do much on the weekends, but there is just SO MUCH. I don't get home from class until 5 and then have 3-5 assignments and reading every single night. So not used to this and I am exhausted! I'm driving the 3.5 hours home tomorrow evening right after class and will be expected to hit the house stuff hard this weekend. I just want to fast forward a month!
Missing my kids and my little guy has no idea what is going on and keeps asking for me. I'm afraid he's going to be a leech all weekend and I won't be able to get anything at all done.
