Us Right Now – September 24

jake
This week was all about getting back to the groove of things for Jake. He came back from Vermont late Sunday night and spent the rest of the week catching up, returning emails, helping me, making appointments, etc. But I think he’s almost there. Getting back into the rhythm of the work and the schedules. Work, travel and school all came together to create a bit of temporary chaos but it will slowly go back to normal.

It was another hectic week for me at work and home. I am almost in the groove of our new schedule and I have the 5:30am wake up time down. I am loving doing the exercise so early and getting it out of the way. I am loving journaling while the house is quiet and I am loving feeling like maybe I am finally finding a new routine. I still have a few kinks I need to work out but I am feeling more optimistic than before.

David had another good week at school. He had back to school night last week and the teachers seem to like him and we love his school. I feel very much at peace with having moved him and I am hoping he will enjoy his time there so much. His teachers seem truly wonderful and caring and dedicated and kind. He has been reading like a fiend and I love watching him dive deep into books and truly enjoy reading. It was certainly my very favorite thing at his age so I love seeing how much he appreciates it, too.

Nathaniel is also loving school and he also had back to school night last week. His school is tiny and he really enjoys being there. On the days he is not scheduled to go, he cries when he sees me pulling into the driveway instead of the school. He has begun using his name a lot so he’ll say Nei-nei eat or sleep or no. Closer and closer to making full sentences all the time. He’s so cute and jovial that it’s fun to be around him even as he gets more and more demanding and dramatic.
