I am taking a class to learn about all these great programs I can use with my fifth graders next year. My assignment this week is to create this blog. So, here it is. Staying with my blog title as Summer Stay-at-Home Mom...here is my first eventful day of summer break. My boys played in the backyard this morning, filling up jugs with water and emptying them into tubs; then sitting in the much too small tubs. I think they're ready to hit the pool. Maybe tomorrow if it doesn't rain. Next we got McDonald's and headed to a school playground for lunch and playtime. Of course my three year old needed to go to the bathroom within the first 10 minutes of lunch. Moms, what do you do? We headed to a nearby park that had a restroom and resolved the problem without incident. To end my afternoon I mowed the lawn while my three year old pushed his bubble mower around; and my five year old watched TV inside.
Okay... I am planning to eat at home this summer (less fast food) and plan activities minus TV. My excuse today? It's our first day, let's celebrate and do what we want!

About Me and My Blog
The sky is blue and the temperatures are warm...I have achieved Summer Stay-at-Home Mom status. I am a fifth grade teacher during the school year, but school is out and I get to join other Stay-at-Home Moms for the summer! I have two little boys (ages 5 and 3). I'm hoping that we will have a fun-filled summer without too much crying, whining, and fighting (especailly by me)! Feel free to give me feedback on my summer status!

We get the chance to babysit my grandson this weekend. He is almost 2 and my daughter has 24 hours of duty at the Great Lakes Naval Station. I am looking forward to taking him to the park and playing with him. Nana will just have to work hard at keeping up with us.

My sister used to say that the early years of parenting and working full time are like a house of cards--pull one out (a sick child,for example) and the whole house topples.
Enjoy your summer with the boys. They grow so fast. My baby just graduated from college a couple of weeks ago!
Hey, Stac! Regarding your bathroom situation-- we had this problem last week & used the bushes. Right behind the shelter. The locked &, therefore, completely useless shelter. He was very proud to have 'made the leaves all wet'. Also, one sandal (but we won't talk about that!).
