By the time Jane's first day of school came around, she was MORE than ready to get started. She started last week and was so excited!! Her new school is SOOOO darling and Wonderful!! It's called the Little School at Kids' Cottage and we were so thrilled to find a school that was just as magical and wonderful as the one we had in Utah :) The program here is amazing! Jane is really going to learn a lot and have tons of fun, too!
Beckham, of coarse, loves dropping Jane off and picking Jane up from school, too! He loves giving Jane a big hug when we go into her classroom to pick her up :)
Here is a very poor outside shot of Jane's school.
Last week was a CRAZY week for me! On Thursday, Jane, Beckham and I drove out to Maryland to help watch my Brother's darling kids, Charlotte, Edward and new baby Harry!! I was so impressed with myself that I managed to make the two hour drive all by myself without any major blunders...yay me :) My favorite part of the drive (even though it really is ALL a beautiful, scenic drive) is going over the Bay Bridge, a huge bridge that crosses the Chesapeake Bay. It is amazing and so long!
Once we got to their house the madness began. It wasn't too bad really. The girls got along great, Beckham and Edward were super good boys and never complained and baby Harry is a dream baby...so patient!
I even gave all four kids a bath...I know, what was I thinking, right? Once one got in, the whole lot of them wanted to hop in! This worked out great until baby Harry started fussing to be fed and I was frantically running around trying to find jammies for all the kids to get them all dressed. Looking back...I honestly don't really know how I did it all :) However, I am happy to report that everyone is still alive and well :)
That night, Matthew came home with Cafe Rio...hooray! We ate while the kids watched a movie and had popcorn. It was so FUN to hang out with my bro again. He is an amazing dad...I was so impressed with him :) The next day, I took Charlotte and Edward home with me. And baby Harry stayed with the nanny until Matthew came home. We, of coarse, had to make a trip to the amazing "Airplane" park on base.
I quickly learned that you CANNOT let Edward roam around without being two feet behind him...cause he is absolutely fearless. He will try ANYTHING, whether you are around to help or not...Yikes. Again, I am happy to report that everyone is still alive and well :)
The boys loved swinging...and so did I. This required the least amount of running around crazily for me!
By the time Ryan got home I was totally exhausted and so thankful for his help. He is always so helpful to me :) After baths the kids all sat with snacks and watched a movie...so cute!
The boys were completely in heaven1
The next day was Saturday and Matthew came with baby Harry at around noon! He watched the kids for us while we went grocery shopping. Then I made dinner and we all spent the evening together! It was such a blast!
Not gonna lie...I am grateful that I just have my two kids for now :) but we still had a CRAZY, FUN weekend!!
