Another year of school has approached. Mia is in the 8th grade, and Ashlee in 4th. Ashlee has just started a new school, Madera Elementary in Simi Valley, and Mia is still at Cornerstone here in Camarillo. I started homeschooling the boys this year too, so this is going to be one Crazy year!! I am very excited about all these new openings though. As for my personal growth, I'm training for my first full marathon, Oct. 17th, in Long Beach, CA. I have an awesome running partner, Mollie, and a very supportive family! We've achieved 22 miles thus far. Amazing what you can train your body to do, and speaking of which... Gio is now potty trained!! Way to go my lil big man!! Mama is so proud of you!!
I never knew that life as a SAHM could be so busy. When I first agreed to it when we found out we were pregnant with baby #3, I thought I'd be so bored. Little did I know that it was the complete opposite! My days are consumed with playdates, soccer practices, text books, dr.'s appointments, chauffering, being a maid, and everything else you can think of. Don't get me wrong, I love being the one to actually raise my children, but wow, life seemed so much easier when I was a working mama and wife! LOL.
I am excited to see what this upcoming year has for us. Mia is going to be on the East Coast for her 14th Birthday. Her school is taking a Historics Trip to D.C., NY, and Philadelphia. HOW FUN!! I am hoping to be able to go with her, but leaving 4 other kids at home with just dad is a little worrisome to me. Well, I guess time will tell and we'll see what happens!!
