School is here!

And so school has finally begun!  We are a few weeks in now, and I am pleased to report that both of the girls are doing well.  Seems like all-day kindergarten has helped Lillian with her excess energy!  After school each day (where she has recess TWICE each day) she visits an after school program where she participates in plenty of activities with other children.  By the time we pick her up after work, she is ready for dinner and bed.  Oh, and a bath....we love her, but she does smell a little sweaty from all of that playing!

Rosina is doing well with visiting preschool twice a week.  She is fairly devastated each Thursday when she realizes she has to wait until after the weekend before she can go back to school.  She has made new friends at school and loves the teachers.  It doesn't hurt that Mummy is on the board either, I suppose!

Work is, well, work.  Fall is here and that means that the College is busy with incoming students.  My desk has been pretty overwhelmed since last year due to new systems, but we are now finding that things are straightening out pretty well.  I am pleased to report that my workload, while has not reduced, has finally come to a manageable state.  Rob is also doing well at work, where they are preparing a new product roll out at the end of this month.  

Rosie's 3rd birthday is on Thursday.  My, how the time flies!  It seems like just the other day when we brought her home from the hospital.  Never mind that Lilly will be 6 in January! 

And all are happy, and all are well.  We could not ask for more, and feel very blessed.
