Vacation from Vacation

We just got back from a 3 week Vacation to Orlando

The vacation was great and we had a wonderful time.

Since we’ve been back (all of 2 days!), I’ve emptied 9 suitcases, gone grocery shopping, planned meals for the month, got the kids school supplies together, dishes, laundry, made all 4 kids well child check/flu shot doctor appointments, made orthodontist appointments, Dentist appointments, call my son’s pre-school for information about orientation, paid bills…

My husband took our daughter to the first day of 6th grade this morning – we are on to Middle School Years, and I am NOT looking forward to it!

Then I took my son and the 2 little boys to his 4th grade classroom

My son start preschool this next week

My babies are getting big 🙁 I don’t like it much

 

And I need a vacation from everything that I need to catch up on here at home, from being on vacation!  I love going on vacation and traveling, but the catch-up when we get home is just killer! Especially when it runs into the first day/weeks of school! Makes double the work.

However, since our trip was to the East Coast, my kids are on East Coast time, so they easily go to bed early and get up early! Probably won’t last long, but makes it for an easier first week back and getting to bed and up on time!!
