Sorry about the previous post...didn't mean to have a pitty party for myself! I always get like this when it starts to get nice out. I work all day and I just think about being with the kids and taking them to the park or letting them play outside and watching them ride their bikes. It makes me feel bad. Oh well, what do ya do...ya know? Anyway, thanks for the nice words. I hope everyone is having a great week!

Blah, blah, blah...
Blah, blah, blah...
Blah, blah, blah...
Blah, blah, blah...
Blah, blah, blah...

I hate to say it (because I am usually a happy gal) but I have the blah's today. Ever had a day like that? Nothing bad has happened, I'm not sick...so what the heck is wrong with me? It's just been one of those days where you want to stay in bed all day. Okay, I am done whining...

Four kids...

I have had four kids this week! I thought I had my hands full with two. To all you mother's out there with more than two kids...hat's off to ya:) Seriously, I have had my nephews since Sunday because their Mom has been in the hospital. It has been interesting and challenging to say the least. The kids are really super close to their cousins and they get extremely excited (hyper) when they are together. So, needless to say...the four of them had some trouble getting to sleep each night. This made for some not so fun mornings:) They stayed up too late and then I had to peel them out of their beds at 6am and drive them to their house to get ready for school, get them breakfast and get them on the school bus. GROUCHY, GROUCHY, GROUCHY! They are good kids and I am glad to help out but, this makes me glad we stopped at two!!!

Chris and Becca

Who doesn't love Chris and Becca?! Chris and Becca, Jon and I love you both very much. Just a warning: we will come (when you least expect it) and kidnap you...we don't want you to move. Anyway, if anyone would like to help with the kidnapping plan...just let me know:)

Bren

Terrible two's? Terrible three's is more like it:) Okay, at no age have my kids been "terrible" but the age of three (for both of them) has been more challenging. Bren is a character. She definitely has a mind of her mind of her own and has no problem letting us know exactly what she thinks. She is so stubborn! But...I love her...just the way she is. It's funny, the qualities that seem to frustrate me about my kids are the qualities that are going to make them into the wonderful, strong people God created them to be. Anyway, my Bren is a blessing to me. She has been a handful lately but I wouldn't change her for anything in the world.

I registered Chase for kindergarten today!!! After he sat with the teacher so that they could ask him questions, he told me... "that was easy, I wish they would have asked some more challenging questions." This kid is hilarious. I don't know what I'm going to do with him!
