Back to Blogging..

WOW! It has been awhile since I've blogged.. I took a blogging break and didn't really know how or when to come back and honestly still didn't know how so here goes nothing!! 

So much has happened... 

Adam got home from deployment. It was seriously amazing! 
He also recently got promoted! 

We got a new dog, her name is Betsy, she's a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She's bigger now, it's just hard to get a photo of her when she's CONSTANTLY moving :)

Brynna joined a competitive cheer team

We moved! We still live at Fort Drum we just moved into another house..

Brett & Brynna have grown!! They both went to a summer camp for military kids and had a great time. I on the other hand was lost without them and wanted to pick them up the first night. Last year they went to a summer camp but they weren't gone as long.

Oh yea most importantly... WE HAD A BABY! Meet the newest member of the Moreno clan.. BTW that's why we moved houses, we needed more space for the new baby.

School Uniforms....

When I was in high school my school district and a lot of other surrounding schools decided to enforce a school uniform. This is NOT a dress code that we had the previous years but an actual uniform. You cold only wear 4 different color collared shirts and 4 different color pants. At that time I hated it. I was so mad I felt like I was being punished. I wanted to wear cute clothes and have fun picking out my wardrobe daily. Also I HATE collared shirts. What I didn't realize is once you have children you will hate it even more!

Brett has been in school for 2 years now and he just recently started year 3. Brynna also just started school this year. We moved home for the first 9 weeks of school before our pcs and the kids are going to school in the same school district I did when growing up. The school uniform policy is for kids in 1st-12th grade. Pre-K and Kindergarten don't wear school uniforms. I dislike the uniform policy even more now than I did whenever I had to wear the uniforms. I am so thankful Brynna can wear normal clothes so I didn't have to buy her a crap ton of new school clothes like I did Brett. Also I'm pretty sure he has been out of dress code 5 out of the 7 days he's been to school. I can never remember the stupid belt. Darn belt hides from me every day. I refuse to buy another one because he will only be wearing the uniform for 9 weeks and then we move.. I only bought him 5 shirts and 4 shorts and thats all because again we wont be here long. So with normal clothes I'd have a limited supply of clothes. With uniforms I have a very limited amount. It's not that I hate uniforms I just hate everything that has to go in to it. My son used to love picking out his clothes before school and now showing him his clothes in the morning is so boring. haha. I understand why the school has uniforms but I still dislike them. In a month and a half we will be back in a military school and out of the uniform school :)

BTW before anyone suggests it I do pick out the kids clothes the night before. Normally Sunday evening before I put the kids to be I pick out their clothes for the week and put them in their little cubby closet organizer thing. But currently it is sitting in Alaska and we are in Texas. So for now I just pick them out every night before I go to bed.
