100th Post and Preschool

It's our 100th post-whoohoo. I hope the internet stays around for awhile, because this is my digital journal :)

Yesterday was Jordan's first day of preschool. I've now entered the realm of parenthood that involves kids and school. The school we chose is just right up the street, which is wonderful because it gives us a chance to walk and get some exercise. Jordan did fantastic. I took him up to his classroom, but he was ahead of me the whole time, and just walked right into class-no tears, no shyness, no goodbyes. I was so proud of him for not being shy. Unfortunetly, Jaxson did not want to let go of Jordan as easily. He threw a fit all the way home because he wanted to be with Bubba. It's not easy trying to carry a kicking 2 yr old home, with a sippy cup, keys, and being 6 months pregnant. It took Jaxson a little while to calm down when we got home, but then after that he was just fine, and got really excited when I said that it was time to go pick up Jordan. I guess the highlight of Jordan's first day was snacks and playing outside because that is all could remember when I asked him how it was. Hopefully that will change:)

I had to, of course, take pictures of the boys outside the house for the first day of school. The only thing missing is a backpack, but at this school they give them bags and Jordan's was at the schools. Jaxson wanted his picture taken too, and since he was smiling, how could I refuse?

James started school as well this week. I'm hoping for a smooth-sailing semester with the classes he has scheduled. I'm also hoping for a smooth work schedule to go along with his school schedule. With his job being flexible, we were able to-this time-mesh school & work to go along together, instead of fighting with one another. So far, I think it's turning out well.

As for me, I swear my body has decided that I need to be more pregnant than I already am. Just in the last two weeks it's been like bam! you're 6 months prego. Weight gain and joint pain are not fun obstacles to the final goal-baby. And yet I keep my mindsight not on "when am I going to be done", but to just keep on trucking-I'm pregnant and there's not much I can do about that fact now. Every once in awhile, I'll tell James how much longer we've got (as of today, 96 days- 13 weeks 5 days-3 months-6/7 dr appts), but at least this time around I'm preparing myself to "go the distance" because my babies do not come early, no matter how much I want them too.

The only other exciting stuff that's happening with the Cleggs will be Jordan's 1st soccer game this saturday, which Jordan is super excited for.
