Back to the grind....

Reece started 3rd grade Monday, he was mad that I cut his hair to get him ready for school. Once he got to the school and saw his friends he was no longer upset. Luckily his uniforms still fit from last year so I didn't have to buy any new school clothes. It would stink to buy to much since this will be his last year wearing the uniform. We are really excited because he has swimming every Friday as part of the school day. He is absolutely going to love that. He is still going to do art and Guppies after school and he is excited for those to start up again.

I must say however when I took him to school on the first day I felt like trailer trash! I rolled out of bed threw on a sun dress I had laying on the floor from the day before and walked Reece to school. When we got there all the other moms where dressed head to toe Coach and Prada, high heals, little skirts and getting out of their hummers and huge SUVs. Each one trying to impress the next, it was quiet funny to see them all interact so fake with each other.....but boy did I feel out of place! You can tell its a pricey and uppity school.

Dave started school on Wednesday and is hitting the books right off the bat as usual. He said his classes are pretty interesting and he's glad they are starting to focus more on actual things they will use later and more stuff that is useful. His classes will be tough but they will be made easier by the fact that they are at least interesting.

I have started a little project as well. I'm going to be helping out at Dave's school as a surrogate patient. I get to pretend to be a patient going to the doctor with a migraine and have the medical students practice their interviewing skills by giving them my history. It will be nice to have a little something to do and to make a little money will be awesome!

The other two boys are hanging out and trying not to kill each other. EVERYWHERE we go I get asked at least once "Are they twins?" It is so funny. They are the exact same weight but Carter has about an inch on Gavin height-wise. Carter better get eating or Gavin may have him beat soon.

That's the latest Reimer update! Hope you all are doing well!
