bout time


So Maya started Kindergarten last week..and so far she loves it. I drop the girls off early so they can have breakfast at school (they get to eat with their cousins) and I also get saved the headache of telling them to hurry up and eat so we arent late :)
And lets see, the school has already called me 2x in the 1 week that Maya has been there. I always knew she'd give me a run for my money lol. The first time was because she'd had an accident (the school toilets flush super loud and it scares her), the second blessed event happened today. I was told that she had been playing and tripped on the asphalt, leaving her with a bloody nose and a pretty good gash on her scalp/forehead. Poor thing. Its been eventful to say the least!
There hasnt been much more exciting news here, except that I finally accomplished one of my goals for the new year--which was to sew some slipcovers for the pillows on my couch. I finally did it! We went to Ikea on Sunday and I found some super cute fabric, and thought, hmm..I could do this in one night, right? Oh, and without a sewing machine because those damn things intimidate me! Here is a realllly bad photo of the finished product::
