Today Keira will be riding the bus home from school- for the first time! Everytime she sees a bus, she gets extremely excited and does the sign for bus over and over!!-So I'm hoping she doesn't get scared after she gets all buckled in. I then found out this morning that her school is the first of 3 stops in Decorah that is made before they head back to Calmar.. that means almost a 30 minute bus ride! I'm not too happy about that, but since she's not potty trained yet, we won't have to worry about any accidents.
Our latest family outing led us to Ames for an Iowa State football game! The weather was absolutely gorgeous and we had such a fun time tailgating with some long lost friends and just hanging out! The outcome of the game was not good at all for ISU, but the kids still had a blast watching... and eating popcorn, pizza and pop!! Ha
For all you mother's out there-- did you ever go through the nesting period before you had the baby? I did, and thank God I did, but both my babies came early, obviously Keira way early.. but it made me prepared!! Well, this week I've been cleaning out cupboards, drawers, etc., cleaning things that have never been cleaned in the 9 years we've lived here, etc... and I thought to myself,.. It feels like I'm nesting! (Minus the pregnancy of course.. don't want to start any rumors!)
Whatever the reason behind it, I'm glad to be getting some things cleaned up and organized.. hopefully this nesting period lasts a LONG time!!
