Just a little update!

I have not blogged in a long time.  Our computer has been on the fritz again.  The kids are out of school for the summer and they are going CRAZY being shut up in the house all day.  I know what your thinking send them outside to play that would work if it wasn't soooooo HOT!  We have been playing in the pool later on in the day but you can only play in the pool so much before they get sick of it or try to drowned each other!  I don't think any one wants to see that. 

Aubrey Ann turned 7 last week.  I can't believe she is already 7.  She wanted to have her birthday party with Daddy and Grandma and when she told me that it gave me 1 day to plan a party.  It turned out good and I think everyone had fun.  They played in the pool and on the slip and slide with a few neighbors and Grandma and Daddy were both there!  She is such a funny little girl and I just love her sooo much!

Kyle is working a lot as always and is hardly ever home.  When he is home is sooo exhausted that he falls asleep ever few minutes especially if he is sitting still.  We rented "Alice in Wonderland" the other day and he started it about 6 times before he finally finished it.  My friend said it must be a really boring movie if he can't  finish it by the second or the third time.  I just think he is over worked.  I am so proud of him he never complains about being tired when he comes home from being on call he just tries to play with the kids and help me clean up the house.  I really do appreciate all that he does for all of us.

Hailey is our MONSTER BABY!!!  She screams all the time it must be the tantrum twos!  I don't know if she will make it through she is worse the all the other kids put together! 

Jenna is my sweet little girl who just wants to please every one.  She is very tender hearted she wants everyone to like her and think she is good.  She said something funny the other day right out of the blue.  Everyone was playing and running around the house and she was really tired and she looked at me and said "Mommy when can the kids go back to school?  Me and Hailey need a nap!"  I thought that was really funny.  I guess because the kids are out of school and they are running around she doesn't get a long enough nap.

Eliza and Josh are just plain bored.  I have been trying to do school and have them write reports and read books so they don't fall behind and so they have something to do.  But I feel like a really mean Mom making them do homework in the summer.

I have been busy trying to bottle fruit and jam.  The school here has a summer meal program and they give the families that come food to take home.  Most often its produce, and sometimes when they don't get rid of it as quickly as they would like they send it home with anyone who will take it.  So have gotten 3 1/2 bushels of apples from the school and a ton of mangoes.  It really is a blessing for us to be able to use it.  Well  I guess that just about covers everything.  I will stop rambling on for now and go make dinner for my family.
