Too long, again

After it's been so long, it's hard to remember what I wanted to write about.

Bertram started school last week.  It has been fine so far.  He has half days until next Monday.  He has made a friend who was sitting at his table, but then the friend got moved because they were talking too much.  But so far it's all gone well.  Aaron usually packs his lunch, which is good; one less thing for me to do.  I signed up to be the library helper for his class.  But I need to get a TB test, and do a background check. 

The kids are in the middle of swimming lessons.  Bertram was in the tot class, but got moved to the level 1 class.  It's hard for him, for sure, but he enjoys it for the most part.  Bron is in the mommy and me class.  She likes it.  It was super hot last week, so it felt good to swim.  We have this week, then they're done til next year.

Grandma's house is just about empty.  I think it's in escrow. 

The week before school started we did a lot of different things.  Two different amusement parks, park day, beach day.  It was a fun week.

Bron has become a picky eater as of late.  She used to eat a lot of different things, but now she only wants Lucky Charms, which I'm going to stop buying, crackers, apple sauce, and cheese.  She used to eat different fruit and veg, some meat, etc.  But I'll keep giving her a variety.  She was having some issues with cow milk, so we switched her to pea protein milk.  She likes it, and it has a lot of the same things as cow milk (protein, calcium, fat, less sugar).  She actually finished all the breast milk I had in the freezer, which is good.  I'm glad it didn't go to waste.
