Just a fast update

Everything is going well, and I really need to change this to more than just Drexel's World as it really should encompass all my children now. The kids are doing great. Drexel is finally tackling school a lot more head on and doing much better. Taylor is doing great with nearly straight As and inching much much closer to getting her Uggs. And then Austin has done well, not quite the best grades but for being at a new school, he's doing well. He's also now on the basketball team. So that makes for things to be a lot busier at our house with only one driver. Thankfully Wowwie is not far away and able to help.

All for now.

First Grade!

We are all set and registerd for the 2009-2010 school year. At least Drexel is. He's very excited about having the same teacher Jacob did last year. Drexel has had a very busy summer. He's been showing in Sheep Shows, riding 4 wheelers and really just being a big boy! I wish I had a book and a tape recorder of all the great things he says all the time. The other day I had he and Jacob with me and they sang all of Taylor Swift's latest song, without the music playing behind them. It was quite impressive. Those boys are going to have quite a time together I'm afraid.

Well, I think you should get her to kiss you....

Yup...that came out of my son's mouth.  

Drexel and Jacob went to their school night the other night and Jacob wanted to stay with Uncle Randy (Drexel's dad) for the night...and so I dropped them off there before I headed South for the weekend.  While there, the boys were chased around by the girls.  Awe.  But here's the conversation on the way to Randy's.  

J:  I can't believe those girls were just chasin' me.  

D:  I know!  Dude what's up with dat??!!!

J:  I know for a fact little Suzie* wants to kiss me.  She kisses me in my dreams all the time, it's just like a nightmare.  

D:  I think you should get her to kiss you in real life. 

J: D'oh!  No!  that would be like a nightmare!!!!

J:  You know, I know she wants to marry me.

D:  You do?  How do you know that!?

J:  Because she told me.  She wants to be more than friends and I want to just be friends.  

Yup, it starts young.  Next week I bet they want to go on a date.  Yikes.
