Three month old and a kindergartener

Omgggg my last baby is 3 months old today and my oldest baby starts school on Monday and my middle baby starts early September.

Quinn: definitely out of her leap and much happier. Loses her shit when she’s overtired and still eats incredibly well. I’m neurotic and still pump all day long but I’m getting in a good schedule of knowing what she needs and when I need to pump. She still poops like every 4-7 days. I know you were all wondering. She’s making some adorable sounds and beautiful smiles at all of us. And the boys love her dearly.

Charlie: we started a chart with him to try and keep his epic meltdowns at bay. So he’s been crushing it this week. He hasn’t had a meltdown in 5 days so he earns a yellow fish. Literally he wants a yellow fish. I hope it can live with jack’s fish. I think we can continue this chart thing with him and have it be as effective! When I was laying with Charlie tonight he said “I miss wa-wa at skoooo.” It’s going to be a huge adjustment for him (and all of us) with jack in kindergarten. Charlie has been obsessed with pickle ball lately and calls it “pickle bok.” He wants to play it constantly. But not with me because I’m “not good.” LOL 

Jack: we had his orientation today at his new school, it’s called Deer Park and it’s in our new neighborhood! We can walk there from our new house but for now we’ll be driving him. His teacher’s name is Mrs Morris and we had a super brief meeting with her where he did a scavenger hunt and got to look around his class. He is mostly excited about buying lunch. He also likes the pe room and seemed to just be taking it all in. Earlier this week his eyes were SUPER red for a couple days and his ear was all swollen. Took him to the doc and she was like ummmm 🤷🏼‍♀️ Both are finally getting better. 

Me: I’m slightly freaking out about Jack being away from me for so long. I know this is the natural progression of life but I’m anxious about having him away for hours on end. I’m going to miss him so unbelievably much. I also hate that the kids have to wear masks ALL day (except for at recess/lunch/snack) but obviously it’s necessary. I’m anxious about this fall/winter and covid surging all over the place. I don’t think this shit is ending any time soon. 

Then to the pool we went. Soaking up the last couple moments of summer with my babies. 

Charlie is swimming like a fool! So impressive.
