School has officially started. We went to ‘Meet the Teacher’ on Wednesday. It was great. Both the boys have great teachers and seemed to be very excited. Thursday morning rolled around and Max had a complete break down. The tears started. But, I got him there on time while […]

We have officially started the countdown to school. It will start one week from today. Max will start 2nd grade and Zeke will be in Pre-Kindergarten. Lula will be home with me. Max got his stitches out on Friday. I can’t say the toe looks great, but it seems to […]

We finished up our beach trip and made it back in yesterday, late afternoon. Max was really ready to be home. Not much fun at the beach when you can’t be on the beach. And, we are all more comfortable with the toe situation at home. We are thankful that he […]

We arrived safely at the beach on Friday afternoon. The kids did GREAt on the flights. They were pretty crazy on the drive from Jacksonville to New Smyrna, but they were super excited. (Jamie was already not a fan of the drive since our rental car is a burnt orange jeep). […]

All the kids have been to the doctor in the last month or so for various things. You know strep throat for Zeke, ear infection for Blake, strep infection in a not very comfortable place for Max. But, they were all weighed on their visits and I officially have a 30 lb girl, […]

I am baffled where the summer is going! We are just weeks away from our trip to Florida. When we return, we will be just weeks away from school starting. Last week we had something every single night. We celebrated Jamie’s birthday…one night with family, one night with a friend. […]

Max successfully completed his week at camp DaKaNi. It was from 9:00 - 3:30 M-F. He had SO much fun. He was not very happy when I picked him up the first day because he had to wait awhile for me. It was kind of a repeat of the first grade drama […]

It is getting more and more difficult to sit down and blog. Not because I don’t want to…my time is just totally occupied. My house is a major mess and most days seem to start before the other even ends! We are in the last couple of weeks of baseball. Prime […]

The kiddos are keeping ME busy this summer break. Today we painted, did shaving cream glue art, made a tent and played with Shelby. The art projects were an attempt to salvage a morning that went bad quickly! Zeke woke up extremely grumpy and uncooperative. That made us a little late […]

We officially have a second grader, a pre-kindergartener and a two year old. We are officially out of school and summer has officially begun! Saturday was full of birthday parties. Max’s friend Jaclyn’s party was in the morning and Carder’s was in the afternoon. That evening we went out to Edmond […]

We woke up with a 2 year old in our house. The fit she threw this morning proves it! She had a GREAT well check up. She is 33 1/2 inches ‘long’ and weighs almost 28 pounds. She totally flirted with her doctor, was happy, kept her bow in and did […]

Well, here we are…down to the last week of school. I can’t even remember what we did last week. I know we played 3 baseball games and lost all 3. But, the boys still seem to be having fun. It is finally feeling like summer and looks like we will be […]

We’ve seen rain almost everyday this week. Monday was Max’s first grade field trip to the zoo. I went with him and had a great time. One of his classmate’s dad works at the zoo, so we got to go ‘behind the scenes’ where they prepare all the animals diets. The […]

I have had a wonderful day today! Max gave me a red rose, Blake gave me a pink rose, Zeke gave me a yellow rose and Jamie gave me a confetti rose (just like the ones in our wedding). I picked up a few more flowers at church and now have a beautiful […]

So much has happened since I last updated. We can hardly keep track of the days… Last Friday, Max taught his class how to make ‘Beach Pudding’. He loved ‘teaching’. He even used the saying ‘you get what you get and you don’t throw a fit’…wow. The Thunder lost their […]
