off we go..

So today was the day.. my BABY started school. The photo above is Lane with his friends; Devon, Ainsley and Drew.
As Mommies, it was nice to see my friends there with their kiddo’s starting school too. Most of us this was our first baby off to school, for one it was the middle one and another it was her baby.
Lane did so great! Last night he kept stalling going to bed, finally he said “Mom I am kind of nervous” I told him I was too! He asked, “Really? Why?” I told him I had never ever taken a boy to school in the morning.. Nor have I had to be a mom of a kindergartener. My favorite little boy looked at me and grabbed my hand saying “it will be ok, we will do it together” AND WE DID!

Off Taylor went to daycare, Lane and I picked Daddy up from the shop and went to school. He was great, he walked in handed in all his paperwork, put his stuff in the locker and into his room he went. No fear, just a quick look back at mom and dad, with a wave.

I am so excited to go pick him up and hear all about the fun time he is having!!

Cell Phones

So we all grew up with a cell phone at some time in our teen years. We all had to have “THE TALK” about making to many calls or calling a long distance number.. O the days!
Recently, Braden and I opened a new account and placed my parents on ours to help save them a few bucks.. =) The first 3 months were great.. bill came I paid all were happy.
Then I received this months bill.. WHAT THE HECK! Now I knew I went over on my text messages, as Mandi had her baby and we text the whole way through. But almost 60 some dollars worth... I think not.
Saturday morning I got up and called in to have them explain the phone bill to me. As the woman is telling me about our bill, she keeps referring to “my sons’ number”. Now remember my parents are on the bill with us. Yup you guessed it.. My Dad’s bill was a little out of control. My dad is selling some of his farm equipment and is doing some dealing in Canada… international calling, multiple times. He also sent text messages to Mandi, but guess what he doesn’t have a text plan. ( might have been nice to know)
So I had to have the talk with my parents this weekend about their phone bill. Can I tell you how funny it was to think I had to talk to them about their excessive phone usage... ahhhh pure comedy.
Needless to say it is all worked out.. and they have had their warnings :)
