In just a few weeks I will be sending two of my kiddos off to school. Ike will be in big kid school......KINDERGARDEN! How on earth did that happen?! Quilon will be starting in preschool. Both start on the same day. What a strange day that will be for me.
I am not going to lie, I am kind of excited for Ike to go off to school. And slightly sad. Sad only because that means he is growing up so quickly. But excited because I now get a serious break from the kid! I am sure once September 6th is here I will not want to send my annoying yet smart little Ikers away to school. All day kindergarden! I don't even know if he will truly be ready. I am sure that he is ready to get rid of his annoyingly mean mom!
Quilon will be going to 2 days a week preschool. He is only gone for a couple hours so that isn't to bad. He has no clue that he will be going to preschool. I have tried to explain it to him but he is in his own little world. It will be interesting to see him in class. Oh that poor teacher!
We went school shopping for Ike this past weekend. He was bouncing off the walls with excitement. We had to find the perfect folder and notebook for him. Spiderman of course. And we found him some black and orange tennis shoes to have school pride. Ike calls him his Herky shoes. Herky is the school mascot.
What will Edison get ourselves into the few hours a week we have to ourselves?! I am guessing he will nap most of those hours. Maybe I will join him....we shall see what we get ourselves into. I can't wait!

Summer Lovin'
Things that I am loving right now:
1. Potato Salad and Broccoli Salad that my mother-in-law makes me. Yummy!
2. My fat easy going baby.
3. Big Brother. Every summer it's my smutty tv fix.
4. My hubby who works extra hard so I can stay home with the off spring.
5. A free pool pass. Perks of the hubby's job!
6. Green beans from my backyard.
7. Boys who play all day in their undies outside. Boys as in my children not random boys.
8. Nights where I can sleep in my big comfy bed with the windows open letting in a cool breeze.
9. Swim lessons with the boys and many of their friends.
10. Netflix streaming.
11. Bike rides with the whole family. Even if I am out of shape and carrying 50+ pounds of dead weight children.
12. Watching little people playing T-Ball. So cute!!! (All should come to Ike's last game this next Monday!)
13. Grilling.
14. Staying out late(r).
And finally:
15. That summer is ending so I can send Ike off to Kindergarten!

People
I'm on the first part of my journey to Michigan. You know the one where I was supposed to ride a train but was offered a bus instead, yeah that one. Well I am a people watcher....something I have learned from my wonderful father. Or well maybe I am more of an observer. My dad will make up stories about the people and swear he knows that they are right. Sometimes he comes up with believable things and sometimes it is so far out there. But he has an imagination that's for sure. I on the other hand just notice little things and wonder 'what on earth?!'
Example Number One:
This is a picture of the guy in front of me. You know the ugly Hawaiian shirts? My dad sure does! Well this guy is wearing one similar to those but with airplanes on it! First the Hawaiian shirts with big flowers is bad but one with airplanes is just wrong. But what it gets better with this guy. He is wearing shorts, which isn't bad, but when paired with chicken legs into cowboy boots it so is! I am no fashionista but I know that's not ok. I also found it slightly humorous that this guy was also making friendship bracelets. Umm.....
Example Two:
Next to me is a mom and her teenage daughter. Well lil miss daughter has some short shorts on. She must Nair her legs. (Get it?!? 'Who wears short shorts? We wear short shorts. Nair for short shorts. Ok nevermind) I shouldn't have to see her butt checks falling out of her shorts. So not cool. What is her mother thinking going out with her like that?! I am so glad i have boys....I won't be dealing with that. (If I am we have way more issues than butts hanging out of shorts!) Together lil miss short shorts and Hawaiian shirt would almost make a Jessica Simpson during 'Dukes of Hazzards'.
Example Number Three:
Not so much a 'what on earth' but more of a wow. This cute little old lady is kitty corner to me. But I was slightly shocked with some of the items she brought with her. She has her US magazine to catch up on the gossip, her 'Harry Potter' trading cards inside a collectors 'Harry Potter' box and a really cute little purse. If it wouldn't be so obvious I would have taken a picture of her. She is wearing old lady purple pants with a striped matching top. White old lady shoes. Hair pulled up into a 'bun'. She looks like your typical grandma but apparently up on the latest celebrity gossip.
I am slightly bored on my lil trip so watching people helps pass the time some. That and my travel buddy....
He is just so cute and doing so well. Sleeping as I write.
I'm almost to my first destination! I will let you know of the great people on my next leg of the trip later.
