August already!

I can't believe the summer is almost over, it has flown by. August is a busy month. Jacob starts school on the 18th and I still don't know who is teacher is. Ryker's birthday is the 23rd and I have planned it all in my head, but done nothing to get it going. Shit. I also have Dr. appts.

Ryker's party will be Construction themed, with hard hats and orange cones. I need to get all of that of course and invitations. Oh and it might be good to get one year pictures taken. He is so close to walking, he is at the cruising stage. Going from the couch to the coffee table and back. Of course that is like one step for him, but still. He will be walking soon. Maybe he will say more than ba-ba too. Ha.

Jacob had a sleepover last night, he was so excited to go over there and spend the night. It isn't his first sleepover either. But, at 1:30 in the morning, I got a phone call that he wanted to come home and that he couldn't sleep. The other mother said that he was sleeping, but woke up and got scared.

He has had a problem falling asleep, I don't know what is causing this. But, he asked if I would take him to the doctor and get sleeping stuff for him. I seriously don't know why an 8 year old, who plays all day, wouldn't be able to sleep. We will see what comes of it.

I have to go to Iowa again this morning to work my part time job. I was hoping to stay home today, but we need the money. So that is fine. It is only a hour and a half drive each way.

We have a heat advisory for the weekend. Yeah. I am ready for fall because it is cool in the mornings and you can wear sweatshirts. Love it.

Well, gotta jet. Have a fabulous weekend.
