So, once again, I am behind in my monthly blogging. Only once a month and somehow I still can't manage it!
September started a busy time for us. Doug's work really picked up, both the boys started school, I was back to work and my two grad classes started. Plus, I started teaching 2 classes at Metro. Needless to say, the past couple of months have been crazy.
The main things that happened in September were that Jack turned 5! and Doug turned 41!
Jack chose to have his party at the zoo. We had a nice time and most everyone was able to attend. Jack was pretty shy and not too certain about being the center of attention. There was a little girl there from his preschool who seemed a little fond of him, so that was cute. Jack insisted that she was not his girlfriend (thank goodness), but that didn't stop him from pointing her out to us.
Julie was in town during the time of Jack's birthday. My mom had a stroke a few days before, so we spent part of Jack's birthday up at the hospital where my mom was staying for rehab. The boys thought it was fun to ride around in her wheelchair.
Doug's birthday falls at the end of September. We got him some gifts and the boys decided he needed a cookie cake. They love cookie cakes. Not sure if Doug does or not.
Doug went on a work trip over a weekend in Sept. The boys and I enjoyed the house to ourselves for three or four days. We watched some movies, hung out and went to the apple orchard. Charlie really loved picking apples and picked way more than we could use or want! Jack enjoyed the apple picking, but wasn't quite as into it. Either way, it was a beautiful fall morning and we had a great time.
