No new news for you fellow Texans. It's HOT here!!!!!
I had to laugh a bit at myself when I looked at the car thermometer as it said 90, and I thought to myself, "90 is nice. It feels cooler today."
We had a play date at a fellow mom of twins house this morning and had a good time. We all went outside for about 5 minutes. Elizabeth was sweating all over her head and Cosette was turning pink! One of the other girls said, "I hot. Go inside." So we did!
The babies have dropped their morning nap. After a busy week in the nursery at VBS they decided that it was more fun to play than nap so I obliged them. It's been a little different adjusting to the new schedule. Bye bye forever my morning email/blog check/get a shower and get ready for the day time. But hello to new adventures and more fun time together! (read that as, "Hello to mommy running more morning errands! Hurray!!!!!")
And August always means the start of the year for me. I think that it's really when you should celebrate the new year. New things start. New changes. Summers doldrums and oppressive heat are finished and fall just celebrates the harvest and the promise of what's next. Yay Fall.
I've also decided to officially stop shopping for crayons and markers. I have more than enough to give to Operation Christmas child, keep two toddlers and a preschooler well occupied and more than enough to start my own crayon supply store.
Anyone else have a school supply addiction?

Oh no, not me (says the lady with 25 bottles of glue at home).
I personally still have a gag reflex when I see school supplies at the beginning of the school year! I think I made the right decision in staying home, huh? :)
It IS hot, and I love school supplies too. I limited myself to two backpacks to donate, but believe me I wanted to peruse the whole section!
aahhh...school supplies aisles!! the best!!! since we homeschool, i can buy anything old thing I (i mean the kids) need!! no 12 braded folder lists for me!!
Oh and I can't resist school supplies either. I just bought 20 boxes of Crayola crayons for only $5...I just couldn't resist. And who couldn't use a few $.15 notebooks. :)
