Summer School Started

I have been to class 3 days for my summer I semester. I am taking two psychology classes (M - F) and I am really enjoying the semester so far. I am really enjoying going everyday and feeling like a real student. I get up and take the 7am bus to make it to my 8am class. Both classes are for 1 hour and 35 minutes and I get home just in time to put the kids down for their naps. I am able to study while the kids are taking their naps and then when they kids go down at night I continue studying for the rest of the night so I can get up and do it again. I like this because I know that I only have to endure this for 5 weeks, (1 week is almost over already). I like remembering what we talked about just the day before. It doesn't give me any room to procrastinate my homework that is for sure.
Chris has been staying home with the kids while I am gone and he has SURPRISINGLY been enjoying it so far. He enjoys just waking up and getting breakfast done, then getting them dressed for the day, then he takes them to a park for an hour or so, does grocery shopping or any other errands that I need. Comes home and lets the kids play by themselves for a little bit while he cleans up the kitchen and prepares their lunch. He eats lunch with them and then when I get home he leaves to go to school. He was suppose to teach a summer class but it didn't have the number it needed so he is using that time to do his dissertation rather then teaching. He has really been enjoying the setup so far. Thankfully I do have WONDERFUL friends that help us out too. My friend Allison came and picked up Matthew this morning to take him to the splash pad but unfortunately it rained so she took him to the Children's museum instead. It was so nice that Chris got to go do stuff with just baby Allison. He had fun watching her be her cute little self.
I hope that we all continue to enjoy the rest of the semester.
Since Chris didn't get his class I thought about picking up another class. Just an easy Kinesiology Tone & Flex class that I need. I figured I wouldn't have any more homework but it would just be showing up to class. Though I do want to tone, I finally decided that it would take way too much of my precious nap time study time away and I may not get the studying done that I want to if I did that so fortunately I talked myself out of taking that class. I will have to take it another time.
