Survived!

Well Kaitlyn survived her first day of 2nd day and she loved it!! She came out of school yesterday and she was so excited and happy. She had her first homework assignment which was to find 5 things that describe her but have to fit into a brown lunch sack. We had fun finding her five things...a fruit snack wrapper (her favorite snack), a small pink furry bear (her favorite color), The Cat/The Dog (her favorite book from 1st grade), one of her go-kart driving glooves and a pic of her as Little Jr. Miss Prosser.

I had to take most of today off of work. We have a really unfortunate situation going on for our daycare and I ask for prayers for Jackie and her assistants. This has been going on for over a week and we were hoping it would have all been worked out by now but she is still unable to have kids. This daycare has been such a breath of fresh air for our kids and they have had the most amazing summer with her. But... Trace has had such a tough time with the adjustment. On top of all of that he has been sick and we are having to have tests run to figure out what is going on. We had a doctor's appointment today and they took 4 viles of blood!! He was so good, didn't even shed a tear. On Tuesday morning he has to go in for an ultra-sound. We are trying to get him all excited to have a 'special picture of his belly'. I am trying to get excited with the fact he has to fast for 4 hours before his 9:15 am appointment.

After we left the doctors we went to Liberty to help get Thursday packets ready to be sent out and for a meeting. Apparently she didn't like her lunch today and even took it to the office to ask if they would call me and tell me to please stop at McDonalds or Subway and bring her a lunch she would like. They told her that they couldn't do that (if they did it for her, they would have to do it for others and that could cause quite a problem and tie up a lot of phone lines). Her issue was with the chicken noodle soup... and boy did I hear about the 'stinking soup'. When I got home I had an e-mail from her teacher and this is how it closed: By the way, Kaitlyn hates soup. She was funny today. She did not want that soup for lunch. I told her to just eat the other stuff Mom packed. I e-mailed her back and told her, welcome to the drama that is my daughter :-) Oh and she lost her lunchbox... probably somewhere between the office and her classroom and I would suspect it was to the garbage can to get rid of the soup. We'll see if it turns out tomorrow but in the mean time she is brown-baggin it.

Trace got to go with Grammie for his back to school shopping trip tonight. Even though he is the last grandchild to start school, I think he emotional state got him moved up the list. Grammie took him for a haircut and a new outfit. He came home and told me he got a 'funkhawk' which was really a FO-HAWK. I won't write on here what his Auntie Amee and I translated funkhawk to but it wasn't HAWK.

Kaitlyn gets to be in the State's Day Parade in town on Monday. Rick and Sue made banners for the car last night... ok Sue made the banners and Rick helped her finish putting them together. She will be riding in a 1956 bright Red T-Bird. We are hoping to have a pretty quiet weekend besides that.

Well off to bed... gotta get some rest for a fun Friday!
