updates and randoms.

well, we have been so busy and not necessarily doing fun things so this is just a post of what has been going on with us. 

Garran spoke with one of the professors that sat on the panel that interviewed him. She said that his interview went really well and that he was to modest about his talent. However she told him that that played to his favor. So we will see what happens. Keeping our fingers crossed. They said a few weeks and they will let everyone know.

i went to register Cullan for kindergarten and got a nasty little surprise when arriving. they had not sent me this like 15 page packet of information that I needed to fill out and they also failed to send any kind of information saying that we would have to pay $120.00 to register him. (yes we pay taxes in illinois for school, and no that does not cover any supplies or anything like that.) I found out that we have to pay that every year and for each child. So next year it will cost me $240.00 to register the kids for school. I know this is my first kid heading off to school, but I about feel over. That seemed like a lot of money to send my kid to public school and buy supplies on top of all of that.

Ayla is cutting her first tooth, so she has been a little grumpy lately.. poor girl just can not catch a break. first being so sick and then the teeth. sigh. oh well. on other exciting news with her, today I bought my first size two diapers for her. the reason this is such a big deal is because by 5 months, my other kids were in size 3 and even 4 diapers. She is just our little string bean.

Kael has screening for Preschool coming up. I am hoping that he gets in this year. I think he will be miserable with Cullan gone all day. They play together so much and Kael is so ready for school. I am really hoping that they have a spot for him. We will have to wait and see. Here's to keeping our fingers crossed on that as well.

Other than that, life as normal. We found out yesterday that we have to replace the brakes on our van. I was not excited about that. Some days it just seems like money flies out of your hands before you even get a chance to know what to do with it. Oh well. It has to be done.

Well Ayla woke up and is not happy. Off to cook dinner and wrangle the troops ;0)

Hope everyone is having a Happy Wednesday!
