Its been a while...

September has been such a crazy month and its not even half started! First in news is that we bought a new truck. We've traded in our van and got a more practical vehicle for ourselves. Seeing is how we are a one vehicle family this fit the bill. I absolutely *adore* it. School has started for these two, aren't they excited? My Abby is in 2nd grade and my Ethan is in 6th this year. Crazy.

Owen is just his happy self, even though he misses his brother and sister.

I've also embarked on a new career if you can call it that. I offically resigned from the school system and have started up my own government approved dayhome. Little Blessings Dayhome offically opened for business on August 28, 2009. I've got 6 part-time boys and its been fun. Owen loves that he has kids to play with and things seem to be going well. I have one little one who is having a lot of separation anxiety so we're taking things one day at a time for him.

I've also ran into a bit of a techie snag, my main and only computer is now in the process of going in for repairs. Something about a defective memory component and the computer wasn't able to read the dvd-rom drive. So with it being on warranty its being sent to California to be fixed. Luckily I picked up a laptop for myself and have been getting my internet/outside world fix through that. When my other computer comes back from the fix it shop I'll engage the wireless internet and the kids will mainly use the desktop. Its taken some time to get used to the laptop, especially the mouse pad but I'm starting to like it better. Thank goodness for external harddrives and the fact that I didn't loose any information or photos.

Just posting some of the last photos of the summer. Owen loved the pool and next year I hope he'll be able to go into it more. The pool is being drained as I type and packed away for the winter.

I'm hoping to be able to do more blog posts soon as things settle into more of a routine.
