Today I realized that this is our 4th week of school! YEHAW! We are right on track and hopefully a bit ahead in some areas. I really like to home school and feel that it is perfect for our family. I don't think that it is for everyone but definitely for us. Today Rowdy had a dentist appointment so we had to make sure all chores and school was done before 1 so that we could go get gas, go get Kris' payroll check, stop off and see Diane and then head to the dentist office and be there by 3. We made it! After 40 minutes of teeth cleaning, little boy and girl squirming, xrays taken we have a cavity. One little ole cavity and 4 back molars coming in pretty much all at the same time. Anyways so we schedule the filling and the next 6 month cleaning for BOTH kids this time. March will be Paisley's first visit and well that should be interesting. We go to leave and no more than walk out the door and Rowdy's nose starts gushing blood. Very strange! So 6 napkins later we finally get enough pressure on it for it to quit. This is the first nose bleed that he has ever had and I am not really sure what could have caused it. So I guess later this week we will be going back to Fayetteville for our filling. Which by the way now fillings are available in a variety of colors. WHAT?? Colors? Really? Isn't that almost condoning kids getting cavities?? Very strange to me. 

Well last week Tarah and I started a deep cleaning schedule to get our houses in order and organized then get in a regular schedule of cleaning. So far so good. Today was day 4 which was clean the living room. Our living room wasn't so bad since we don't have many cubby holes in there. I really have a pack rat problem. Not really hoarding but lots of junk drawers! HA! Anyways last Wednesday was the first day and it was tackle the P's rooms (Parker and Paisley) those 2 rooms were EASY compared to the boys rooms which was on Thursday. Then Friday was sort laundry for all kids. Neither one of us had done that for the kids and so we really needed to get that done. Well its done but I am ashamed to say that I just finished today! I worked all day on Friday on Rowdys and then finished it on Saturday morning and then DIDN'T move to Paisley's room. So today I sorted and hung up Paisley's laundry. Now to get it put away. Tomorrow is the start of Master bedroom cleaning. AHHHHH, the dresser is a MESS! That's the dreaded part. It is the "hot spot" in our room so it catches everything! Oh well it will be much better when the whole house is done and maintained! Well I just realized that I need to go buy a tote and a few magic bags for clothes so I can get those things stowed away. Off to the dollar general store I go! :)
