times go by so.... NOT slowly

I will post again tomorrow when the reality sets in that I have two kiddos off at school- I am ready for it, but not. I never planned on sending Aila to preschool when she was only 3, but financially, we just couldn't say no because our (awesome) school has a great deal for families. So tomorrow, the alarm will again be set and this time I will be shuttling two precious pieces of cargo off for someone else to love on. This is just the catalyst I need to start blogging again :) It has been a really long summer with lots of things to post about, but my laptop is perpetually cranky and won't upload pictures to Blogger... it has been enough to turn me off! But for a Back to School survey, I had to see what I could do. I asked the same questions of Nolan as last year, but for Aila, we are all new.

and i said to myself, "self- what's with the lack of posting?"
i need to drag my drawers back to the blogosphere before these children grow up without proper documenatation! <------ that is my favorite typo in awhile so it is staying.

we have been so busy with a week of family and friends and more family and more friends from far and wide. i heart summer, even though it will be 102 here tomorrow and i still look pastey and visibly cringe at the words bathing and suit. but they never seem to notice any of those things ;)

pass me that sprinkler
