School Starting

OK, so Decker starts school one week from tomorrow and I can't get motivated to get us on schedule. I am so sleep deprived that I am going to skip my workout tonight and go to bed early, and all I could accomplish today was a little laundry and feeding the kids. Decker is also getting woken up by Hannelore and was cranky all afternoon. At least he gets home early enough from school to spend the cranky part of the day with me :D

I am a little worried about school with all of this. . . how am I going to get both kids ready, Jay's food together, and everyone breakfast all before 7:15am? I know I can start packing a lot of food stuff the night before, etc. but I still don't see us all being ready for the day that quickly, Hannelore usually nurses until 6:30 or 7am.

Well, on a positive note, Decker has been reading me lots of books lately and his confidence is increasing. I also spoke to his teacher and she seems very confident that she will be able to challenge Decker, and that the Montessori system will be just the thing for him. This is what we have heard from other specialists, so I am happy to hear that she is confident and comfortable with the situation. I mentioned his previous temper issues and how they are currently resolved, but we are a little concerned about the possibility of a relapse if he gets too bored ( I didn't say it quite that directly on the phone, more of a -- he used to have this issue, but now I just don't want him to get bored). Anyway, lots of exciting and new things going on. . . I wonder if that is why my period hasn't started yet. I mean, I have been getting 5-6 hours of sleep the last few days (though my period was supposed to start 6 days ago), well, the home pregnancy test was negative, so it must be stress of something. I will get a good nights sleep tonight and I am sure things will start up again tomorrow.
