back in the swing of things

so are you settling back into the swing of things? we are slowly getting a foot back into our routines here. the boys still don't get that they should go to bed a littleearlier than summertime and then in the morning they look a little tired! maybe next week they'll get it?

the older one has homework, but the younger one won't have any until next week. it's been nice not having to deal with it. this weekend the sports and scouts begin for real - our afternoons will be jammed packed with them.

My kids have been in school for a month now, so they've gotten used to going to bed early. But it doesn't stop them from stalling every night, so I start getting them ready (pjs, teeth, story) 30 minutes before bed. Now it's getting used to soccer practices and getting dinner ready before practice starts!

This is week 5 and we've been going since then! We've already had two band activities that take up part of the weekend, and there's much more homework this year, so I haven't had much "me" time. My son still stalls as far as bedtime is concerned.
