The Anderson Family!: September 2010

so as usual its been too long.. lots has been going on, birthdays (yes im OLDer now), Nikoy will be celebrating her 6th birthday on the 16th, so im getting ready for that, and besides all that, school has started...YES!!!! the girls love school, nikoys only complaint is that she has to get up sooo early, 6:30 in the morning! it munches! her bus stops out front at 7, so she gets to be up bright and early, kaylee has PM preschool, so she meets her bus at 11, then they get home around 3ish. yep..nikoys kindergarten is ALLLLL day! which is weird, because in utah kindergarten is half day too, and it doesnt start till like, 8:45, so, texas is all backwards..anywho, heres some pics of day 1 of school, yes im one of THOSE moms.. "bye sweetie! be good!!" *click click click* "love you!! " *click click* those clicks are from my camera, so you know...

Here is kaylee after school, and her teacher.

my silly goose, so dang cute!

Nikoy loves school, but i hear it daily "why cant i sleep in?" then saturday gets here a day that she can sleep in and what does she do? wakes up at 7 am.....dweeb.

shes so pretty, and yes she is getting freckles across her nose.. hopefully she wont have as many as i do, a little sprinkling across the nose is cute....
so along with the girls cory has started his fall semester as well, and though the girls have yet to bring home homework, cory has had enough for everyone in the state of texas.....so much that yes i admit, i've even had to help him with some typing, and stuff, i dont mind, i enjoy it (yes im weird leave me alone..) so despite corys homework haul at school he's doing well. i applied for a job at the hospital as the gift shop manager but they forgot to look at my availability before the interview and we discovered that there are days that i cant work (corys at school, i need to be home with cayden) that i would HAVE to work, so i bagged them, and decided i wont take a job unless they can work with my schedule, im not going to have cory rearrange his stuff, just so i can work, so until i find something along those lines, i'll just be a "lazy" (and by lazy i mean over worked and underpaid) house mom...
so onto my other good news, my puppy dog oden has grown so much its amazing! his fur is completely grown in, the only problem i have with him now is his digging, all three of my neighbors, (both sides and backyard neighbors) have dogs, and they all dig trying to get to each other, and its not a good idea because 2 of the 4 dogs (the people to the left of my house has 2 dogs) are like chihuahuas, or smaller (yes theres smaller dogs) and im afraid baby oden will eat them.. so we are trying to discourage the digging... its not working.. anywho, a few more pics, enjoy them!

me-n-oden. so cute..

i LOVE this pics, its so Oden..

he says "sup?"

so i few nights ago i let oden out and i see this little fluff ball by the side of the house and my first thought was "eek rat!" well i went and poked it and it flapped, so i decided since rats don't have wings it must be a bird, and i was right.. :)
so i took the little feller in to make sure he wasn't damaged, and he wasn't.. so i took him back outside and sat him in my little bird feeder and watched and sure enough within about 20 minutes he was surrounded by a bucket load of other birds, and he kinda fluttered up to a low hanging branch then fluttered his way up the tree, and disappeared...hopefully he found his nest and didn't get eating by raccoons...
