Haileys bus ride home

This bus thing is weird.
When I called to get the bus schedule they didn't tell me what bus number she would take to school just what bus number to take home. All they said was, the bus comes at 8:18 on the corner of Singing Hills and Autumn Crest. So we get her to the corner and bus 39 comes. She gets on and goes to school. Well I knew that she needed to take bus 11 home. However, when i go to get her, bus 39 comes to the corner and kids get off but there is no Hailey. I start to follow the bus, calling the school at the same time. School says call bus office we don't have radios to call the drivers to see if she forgot to get off or even if she got on. Then I see another bus that has 11 on it turning down our street. So, I flip a u turn and follow the bus. The bus stops in front of our new house. I am thinkg good, she will be on this bus and get off her. But nope, no one gets off and the bus goes again. So I start to follow the bus. Meanwhile I am still trying to get ahold of the bus office and no one is answering the phone there. Danny is driving to Haileys school to look for her there. Finally 4 streets later, the bus stops long enough for me to get out so I can go talk to the driver and I see Hailey getting off the bus.
I thought she would have been on the bus that dropped them off at the corner since that is where she get on at but since going home from today on Emily will be with her, the bus drops them both off at our house which is why they go on a different bus home that takes them right to our house. She didn't get off at the house because she didn't see me waiting for her because I was behind the bus.
So today, we are going to try this again. She got on bus 39 this morning and will be on bus 11 right to our house after school. Oh I can't wait until we move on September 25th. I won't have to drive 10 minutes to get them to school and then pick them back up. I will only have to take Emily to school and it's not that far.

School











Well today is the first day of school for Hailey and Emily. They are so excited.




Hailey gets to ride the school bus to and from school and I will have to take Emily to the Kindergarten school and then she rides the bus home. The bus comes to the corner of our new house so they only have to walk past 3 houses to get there. Thats nice for me. We got Hailey to the bus stop, she got on and I drove to the school to show her where her class was and to get her paid up on lunch. She met her teacher, found her desk and was ready for school to start and me to go.




Emily just goes to school today for an hour and a half. I get to stay with her the whole time. Basically its just a get to know your teacher day. Tomorrow will be a real day. I don't like having her in the afternoon class. I wish we could have gotten the morning. But I guess that happens when you move in the summer and register late. You don't get what you want.

Stuff






Pictures of our new house


We finally got our own house even though we can't move into it until October 1. Less then a month away. We found out last Saturday that we got it so I went and got Hailey registered for school. Found out that she will be taking the bus and the bus stop is 2 houses down from where we will live. How nice is that. I will have to take Emily to the kindergarten school but then she will come home on the bus with Hailey.





I also got the job transger to Walgreens in Post Falls. Our new house is right down the street from it so I will be super close to work again. :) The only thing about this Walgreens is the manager does not like to have part time workers so I am working 30-35 hours a week at nights and the weekends. Nights don't work out so well right now since I have to be there at 5 and Danny still is not home by then. I have been taking the girls to his Sisters who lives in Liberty Lake Wa about a 15 to 20 minute drive from me but oh well, i have to do it. I can't be late. The manager does not even like that I can't come in any earlier then 5 as it is. He would want me to be there at 4 or better yet 3:30. No can do. I hope to find someone in our new neighborhood who would want to have a super part time babysitting job watching the girls from 4:55 to 5:30 when Danny gets home. How much would I pay for that?



On Sunday, Abby was running and fell and had to have 4 stitches put in her forehead. She gets to have them taken out on Friday. Emily and Hailey are so excited to start school and so am I. Its been a long summer for them not having any friends. I hope they make some fast so they can play with someone other then each other. We have heard that there are some girls in the new neighborhood.
