Well, Today was Tatum's 2nd, 1st day of school this year. She started this morning at 9am! She was not quite ready to go this morning. I think with 2 months out of school, it was hard for her to get back in the groove. Once we got into the classroom, off she went, barely pausing to give us a kiss goodbye! I can't wait to hear about her day! I know that she loves school, and will have tons of fun!!!
Yesterday we went to Mason's birthday party at Planet Pizza. Tatum had so much fun! When my dad sent me pictures from off his camera, it reminded me of Tatum's 3rd Birthday party. The first picture is from her 3rd birthday, the second is from Mason's party yesterday! Is this a trend? My child eats her cupcakes the same way, 2 years counting!!! Frosting first....and only!!
So, after Tatum decided to pour her entire cup of milk in to her dinner bowl, and having it taken away, before she even ate it...this is how I found her less than 5 minutes later! Today, like all this week, has been a hard one! Tatum has been pressing my buttons the whole week. We toured a new pre-school today, she starts Monday! I think she needs that structure, and extra mind play during the day. She starts Kindergarten next year and I don't want her to fall behind just because she was dismissed from her Speech School. I think she will really enjoy it, and I know that I will too! The last 2 months with her being home, is beginning to wear on me! I LOVE her so much, but I am beginning to think that she is a teenager, stuck in a 4 1\2 year old body!!!
What a weekend! We decided to have a Yard Sale at my mom's house Friday and Saturday. What was I thinking? I HATE having Garage sales, but like the money I make out of them... most of the time! This was one of those times. I really didn't feel like I had a lot to sell, but once we filled Richards truck up twice to take to my moms, I thought it might be alright! We were not sure how a Yard Sale would be on Good Friday and the Saturday before Easter, also the last weekend of Spring Break....we should not have even worried!! We had so much traffic, so many people, and we ALL made really good money! It was a lot of work, but well worth the $750 I made from it! I was VERY proud of myself for getting rid of A LOT of Tatum's old clothes. They were hard to part with, but I did it, and I am glad I did!! I made most of my money off her clothes. Since I was stuck doing that, Richard was able to take Tatum to an Easter Egg Hunt with some friends on Saturday. Tatum had a blast! She got her face painted, got tons of candy, and got to play at the park with Sydney and Alexis. This morning we got up and went to the early service at Church. We had brunch there, and Tatum got to hunt for more eggs! She got even more candy! I sure am glad she left the first batch at Nana and Papaw's house yesterday!! After Church, we met up with the rest of the family and went bowling. That was fun! Then we went over to visit with Richard's family, at his Aunt's house. It was nice to see everyone over there! We haven't seen them in about a year! We are always so busy, and with Richard's work schedule being funny, Holiday's are usually rushed and we can't get down there! We will try and change that, and get down there to visit more often! So, the weekend was busy! Lots of late nights, and hard work, but ended with a Nice, but cold, Easter Sunday!!
