Paris, Home, Paris, and back home

Guess where I spent much of this week! That's right...Paris! (Texas that is) Tuesday I had to go to the dentist to get one of my teeth worked on (which still looks beautiful by the way) and he (Dr. Clint my dentist) put a temporary filling in the back of my tooth. Well, temporary is definitely the key word because by the next day I had already knocked much of the filling out of my tooth. So I called him, and he said that I needed to come back if at all possible. Of course it was possible so I went and got Aaron (because we were temporarily down to one car due to a broken water pump in my Yukon), then we went to get the kids, and then back to Paris we went (it's a 2 hour drive by the way). It was good though because the second trip we got to see Rachel and Roselyn (Dr. Clint's wife and little girl, oh and Clint is Jaymie Phillip's brother, so that's how it's all tied together, and Aaron knew all these guys from summer camp when they were all in college). Even though Roselyn wasn't feeling well she was still so so so cute! She is 11 months old, and walking (and falling too) and has the prettiest red curly hair anyone has ever seen. She is cute as a doll!
Needless to say my tooth is fixed (I will actually smile big again), my car is fixed, and hopefully this week won't be as crazy as last week, but hey, that's up to God. We do have a full week, but if all goes as planned then we will have atleast a little down time, something none of us have had since school started.
School is still going well. I am loving it more and more each day. The kids are all so wonderful and bright. I think I may walk away with more from them than them from me. My 2 kids are doing great, well except for Aaden's fever. He actually seems to be feeling fine, but keeps running fever of 101 to 102. We started antibiotics last night, so hopefully we will have a full week of school ahead of us. (We did skip church this morning though just to be sure no one else gets sick.)Aaden has a fieldtrip on Tuesday to this awesome place called Pump It Up. It is this giant warehouse with huge blow up things in it that the kids can jump on and slide down and crawl through. It's a blast (in fact I've already booked Aaden's 4th birthday to be there...yes you have to do it that far in advance.) Rylan and Aaden both have school pictures on Wed. Yay! Me and my anal self already have the kid's clothes picked out. Ok, not just for that day, but for the whole week too. I know I'm wierd, I don't care though. It will be a GREAT week!

School has begun

We had a great first couple days of school. The kids did well, and seem to really be having a great time. Rylan really loves school, and Aaden has fun once he gets there. Aaden has had a couple of problems, but I am optimistic that he will settle down and start behaving himself better...REALLY SOON!!! I loved my first day of teaching! I had a blast, and the kids seemed to really enjoy themselves too. We had music on Monday, and we are going to have Spanish tomorrow. I hope it goes as well as music.
Scroll down to check out a few new pictures.

He's HOME!!

This time it's for real. Aaron is actually and truly back in Longview! After being gone for a month it was wonderful to see him. We had a crazy busy day today, and there is still more to come. This morning I took Rylan to the doctor (an ear infection), then we went and picked up Aaron at the airport, then we all went and ate at IHOP, then we filled Rylan's ear infection medicine, then we all (big mistake on the all part) went to a funeral, now we are home for a little while, and then we are going to the open house at ACA. I will be working and Aaron will take the kids to meet the teachers and recieve any special instructions for the first day of school (which is Thursday). At some point in time we also plan to eat dinner. I guess we should do that here in a little while. Well that's all for now. I really just wanted to tell everyone that I am no longer a single mom...YAY!!! I have my husband back.
