First Day of School

So Jackson survived his first day of preschool and loved it! Even though we've had a few hard weeks here with him going to Primary without a fuss, he was excited about school and kept telling Cooper not to cry when he leaves. He ran off when we got there and didn't so much as even look back at us. When we picked him up he was excited to show me his papers and let me know that he can have lunch there at school sometimes. So all in all it was a success! He's at school again right now and I'm alone for the first time since the kids got here. (Cooper's taking a nap) It's kind of weird. There's no little kids asking me questions or begging me to do something for them. Guess I better enjoy these next few weeks of this since it'll be awhile before it happens again.

Speaking of the soon to be newest Gray...I'm getting another ultrasound done next week to try and get an idea of how big he really is. The most recent doctor I went to wants to have a better idea of how big this baby will be compared to his older brothers to get an idea of how likely it will be for me to have a vbac birth (vaginal). Everyone pray for a small baby!!! (what are the chances of that!)

Other then the normal everyday mom stuff going on, I've been getting ready for the baby. Doing lots of baby laundry and trying to figure out what we'll need to replace since this is the third boy to use it now, and what we can get by using again. Setting up baby furniture in our room and trying to figure out where we're going to put all the baby's clothes and stuff. Hadn't thought about that until recently so more storage of some sort is being worked out.

Jonathan's still surviving work, but only barely some days. We're hoping that we'll get into a groove here soon that will make life alittle easier on him. He's just so overwhelmed, overworked, tired and self esteem wise just so beaten up. This has been much harder than we thought it would. We just never prepared ourselves for the constant putting down Jonathan gets from the other residents above him. It seems to almost be a military 'break him down so we can build him up how we want him' mentality. He'll start his rotation in Internal Medicine the first week or so of Oct. It'll be a good change for him, and we've heard that they're alittle bit nicer then the surgery clinic. :-)

So that's pretty much the update on us Connecticut Gray's. I better get going. Love you all!!
