Hi friends! Happy Friday!  If you have kiddos that went back to school this week, I’m sure you’re looking forward to the weeknd as much as I am!  Ours was a short, fast week with lots jam packed in!

On Wednesday, we had the Spelling Bee (James made top 6!), basketball practice and guitar lessons also started, and today is the Advent program and classroom party we are making up since school closed unexpectedly before we could have those events.

If you missed any of my posts this week, I shared my Life Update,

Hello friends!  TGIF and we’re feeling so thankful that the heaviest rains here have died down.  Yesterday in Houston we had some scary storms and tons of rain which led to all kinds of flooding and traffic problems.  Our kids were safe at school, but it was very difficult to get to them.  I’m still praying of those that have damage and are still dealing with this tragic weather.

If you’re catching up on my blog, I recently I shared a roundup of what I’ve been wearing lately with links to everything, casual transitional Fall outfits,

Hello friends!  Happy Monday and welcome to a fresh, new week!  I’m finally starting to feel like life is getting back to normal after getting the first two weeks of school under our belt.

I think Jordan is still getting into her groove- they have nap time for an hour and a half, but if she doesn’t sleep during that time, she’s so tired and grumpy at the end of the day.  I strive to get her in bed early, around 6:30 on those days!

She’s doing amazing at sleeping in her big girl bed.  I think it was a combination of : 1) me finally deciding it was time,

Hello friends!  I hope you enjoyed the long weekend and your short week is off to a great week! We’re so happy that this is the last week of school! I’ve heard so many of your kiddos are off already and we’re jealous- it’s summer fever big time over here.  I can hardly get James to go to bed- he thinks it’s already summer!
