My Three cRaZiEs!










I really do mean that...they are my crazies hehe! Where to start! Jim is taking his CPA exam #3 Oct. 25th! He passed #1, failed #2 by 6 points :(...and will hopefully pass #3. I'm not sure what he's thinking trying to take it during HUNTING season! All I have to say is if he fails this one...I will kick his butt! I'm really proud of him and am excited for it to be over...the early morning/late night studying..it's like tax season 24-7, 365. I know it will be worth every second of it once he's FINISHED!

I started teaching full-time. I did NOT want to at all. I enjoyed my time at hom with my kiddos, bringing Tristan to his afternoon UPK class and spending some quiet time alone while Brinley and Easton napped. Oh well, that's all over now. I love teaching and I love the kids at school, but I'd love to be home too...which is why teaching only 1/2 day was ideal. The extra money I make by teaching just a few more hours every day will help our family tremendously. We can have some breathing room financially, which is nice for a change. I'm home every day by 3:30-3:45 so it's not THAT bad. I just can't imagine mom's who work until 5 or 6 and have to drive
home. That I could NOT do!
Tristan LOVES UPK. He tells me he has a girlfriend named McKenzie hehe. I told him it's okay as long as she's the CUTEST girl in his class :).
Easton starts nursery school on Monday. He is sooo excited! Every time he goes poop on the potty he says..."can I go to school now?" The Hannibal Nursery School was full with a waiting list, but they decided to add 2 kids...Easton being one of them! He got a new backpack and is all set to start! I just hope he can make it through the first day without crying to go home!
Brinley...oh Brinley...she's something else! Friday I came home from work and looked at her sitting on the couch with my mom. She started to have a seizure...scared the crap out of me...her temperature was 104...I rushed her to the doctor but everything was okay. It was her temperature that caused it. Poor little girl...I seriously cried all the way to Fulton. I'm so glad she's okay...I'm still fighting to keep her fever down and she also has the cocksaukie virus however you spell that! She won't eat or drink much because her throat is so sore. I hope she starts to feel better soon. I can't take her miserableness much longer ;)
I'm so grateful for my three crazies. Each of them are so very different, but they are all so sweet. Easton continues to be the most laid back, coolest kid that everyone loves LOL. Must be because he was named after his Grandpa Drake ;).
