Back 2 School Boot Camp

With the return to school only a few days away it is time to get the kids back on schedule. That means everything has to be scheduled, breakfast, play time, snack, quite time, lunch, etc. The biggest challange is the bed time. When it's summer and it's light until 9-10 o'clock at night it doesn't seem fair to put them to bed at 7-8depending on which one we are talking about so they have been up late. The bad part they don't sleep any later in the morning so they are behind on sleep. I'm sure it will take the week to get them back on track with that but we'll get there.

OUT FOR A WALK....

Today started off to be such a beautiful day so we hung out around the house and got some more work done and hubby washed the van while Blake played on his bike. Although the sun was quite hot the breeze off the icy water was a bit cool which is something we still have to get use to living here. This afternoon before picking the kids up at school I took Blake for a walk in his stroller and once again today he fell asleep. God love him, he has been himself in almost 2 weeks and he just can't seem to get enough sleep. By this time the wind has changed and it was getting pretty cold by time the kids came out of school so we came straight home and didn't we get caught in a rain shower. Blake slept from 2:00pm until 4pm and is in a better mood but still not himself. I really really hope he gets over this soon!

A GOOD NIGHT SLEEP

I was hoping that Sunday night after a long busy day at Crystal Palace Amusement park that the kids would sleep in and get some much needed rest but it didn't happen because Blake woke up early crying with a sore ear and wouldn't take any medicine for the pain quietly. So everyone got an early start to the day which wasn't good because we had another busy and long day ahead. I went to the emergency clinic with my mom to have Blake's ears checked and sure enough his left ear was infected. Poor little guy. After waiting almost 5 hours he was seen and we then headed to the amusement park to meet up with the other kids. We ended up having fun and Blake continued on his day like nothing was wrong but was ready for bed when we got back to my parents house and a good night sleep he had.
