September came and is about to leave. Crazy how that happens. Things in our home have been quite exciting. Once school started for me all of our lives changed. Matthew began working 6 am shifts meaning our late nights with the kids were soon to be over. Eva is still adjusting since she was used to getting up at 9:30 in the morning but overall we like the change. Now Matthew is actually home with us in the evenings. It does mean that we eat dinner super early, but since I am a Mexican, I love it!

These are some pics from the month. Eva started soccer even though she is a little young for the team. She likes it a bunch if somebody is out with her holding her hand kicking the ball around. However, what she doesn't like is her soccer shirt. I don't know why but she hates that thing. I even tried putting pretty purple bows on the shirt like a friend of mine suggested, and it seemed to work a little. We just figure that since it cost us nothing to join this will be a good experience for her.

Elijah is getting cuter than ever. But, he has the runniest, poopiest, diapers EVER! The picture of him in the garbage bag was to keep him from leaking all over the place. We definitely fight over who has to change those ones. Lucky for me, it's a 50/50 job although Matthew would probably argue he does it more than me.

So, life keeps going on for our family. I often feel like wonderwoman with all that comes being a mom but we are doing life one step at a time. I wouldn't trade any of these experiences for anything.

I love, love, love the first picture of Elijah. What a cutie. And Eva looks so pretty in the picture where she has a flower in her hair. And for some reason the soccer shirt story sounds JUST like something that would happen at our house! Scary that they care so much about what their clothes look like at such a young age!
