I want to be The Bachelor!!

It is no surprise that Cody is often the source of a lot of laughter in our house. Last night our TV happened to be tuned into the new season of The Bachelor. Normally, we haven't watched it, but after watching the beginning you get kind of hooked. Well, it seems Cody was very hooked as well. He was so intrigued by how all these very pretty women would fight for one man to marry them. He was so in awe of the pretty dresses and the ratio of 30:1. During one of the commercials there is an ad that states "if you or someone you know would like to be the next Bachelor, go to bachelor.com to sign up". Right away Cody exclaimed "I do!" "I am going to Bachelor.com!" To Cody, that commercial was his personal invitation to be the next Bachelor.

I informed Cody that when the Bachelor narrows down his choices, he has to bring that girl home to meet his parents. I asked him what he would do if we didn't like/approve of his choice. He quickly answered that he would just have to start over with 30 new women then!

Cody's first bus ride to school.

On Friday I did not have to work so it was Cody's first day to ride the bus to school. He gets to ride the bus home with Connor. Things went great, and he enjoyed riding the bus. It was fun to ride home with his brother. I am so proud of them!

First Day of School 2018

School started a week earlier this year which was a bit of a change. We survived the first week and things went smoothly. Of course as a mom I always wants a first day of school picture. Connor isn't especially thrilled to have his picture taken, but did pose for a quick one. Of course his smile is a bit cheesy because he wasn't happy about the photo, but I guess I at least got one. I am proud of my boys and am so blessed. With the first week of school already came the reality of ordering a cap and gown for Connor's graduation. I am going to enjoy every moment of this year. Cody's birthday is coming in two days and he will be 14! Again, how can this be?? They are turning into such nice young men. That is my goal. Raise them to be good people, to be kind, caring and have manners and of course who respect. I think we are ready for the 2nd week of school.

Uh oh!

Well, I was hoping this day wouldn't come this early, but today I received a call from school. Mr. Goetz, the school administrator, told me that he had Cody in his office along with another boy from Cody's class. Apparently, Cody's teacher asked Mr. Goetz to talk to the boys regarding their behavior. They had been shoving and hitting each other so the teacher decided they should be taken aside to make sure they know the rules. We will see what Cody's take is on this when we talk to him about it this evening...stay tuned.
