Back to school, Back to school

Well the summer is officially over for the Westmoreland's. Before we went back to school though, we went on a shopping trip with Mom-mom and Aunt Lindsey. We had a lot of fun but we were all worn out. Everyone made out pretty well although Mom was worried that Brady only came back with three large bags of clothes! All day shopping trips are a little harder with a 4 month old, but Brady really did pretty well considering.

Brady had his first day of school this past Monday. We were all up and ready to go and we were even on-time. Put that in the record book because it may very well be the last time. Daniel was home in the mornings most of the week and was a big help in getting Brady ready. When he is not around the help in the morning I do not know what we will do. He assures me that it will be ok, he apparently used to bottle feed 15 calves in the morning before he went to school...I assured him that Brady is surely more of a handful than 25 calves j/k. Brady did alright all week. He is not sleeping as much at daycare and is pretty worn out by the time we get home. I think being around the other babies has been good for him though, because he is interacting more and is already trying to crawl and scoot around like others in his class. The only bad thing about daycare, he already has his first snotty nose. No fever or anything like that, just very stopped up. I can't wait for cold season! I also did ok with Brady's first week at school. It helps that he is across the parking lot. I have already gone over and fed him and it was very convenient. I had to go feed him because I forgot his milk. I have a feeling that knocks me out of the running for mother-of-the-year.

Anyway, work is going well for me. I really do enjoy my job and I am going to get to do some exciting things this year. Exciting for me, I am sure no one else will see it this way, but what can I say, I am a nerd. This should catch everyone up for now. I hope everyone had a great week!

Oh I forgot, we started peas this week. Brady likes them but gets a funny look on his face when I switch him from cereal to peas, yet he still wants more of them. We will go onto butternut squash next. Stay tuned.

I have pictures but blogger is hating me right now. I will try to post some later.
