Last week of Summer

 Well this week was a lot calmer compared to last week.  I basically just let the boys play and enjoy their last week to do whatever they wanted.  They probably got to play the Wii a little too much and we watched a few movies here and there, but it was fun to let the kids be kids.

I have started a new project.  I am taking the girls' baby blankets and sewing them into 2 twin quilts.  Doug was brilliant and suggested that I take a picture of the fabrics so I could play around with the squares until I found the pattern that I liked.  I think this one is the winner.  I didn't have enough blankets to get 9 colors so I had to buy 2 different fabrics to make it work.  I need to finish cutting the squares and then start sewing.  I had to get the girls new pillow cases since I had sewn two of their blankets into pillow cases.

Not much else going on, just some random pictures.  Everyone did get colds this week, so hopefully by Monday everyone will be better. I got sick yesterday, boo.

Kaylee

 I guess some bigger news is that we got rid of the cribs yesterday.  The girls had a blast jumping on their toddler beds.  They did ok their first night.  Doug found them asleep on the floor around midnight (we had put some pillows down in case they rolled out) and they woke up at 3:00 and I put them back to bed.

 Nap time today Jenna went down well in their room.  We put another toddler mattress in our room for Kaylee to sleep on.  I didn't lock the door and came up later to find her playing in Chris's room.  So we will have to work on that.

They are growing up, we might give potty training a try sometime soon.  We'll see how that goes.  Not sure if they're ready or not, but I'm willing to try for a few days.

Damon and Tyler start school tomorrow.  We met their teachers on Friday night.  Damon has Mrs. Doughty (moved up from 2nd grade) and Tyler has Mrs. Pool (transferred over from another elementary school).  They both seem nice so I hope it will be a good school year.
