Kaleb wanting to be on camera for any reason....(remember to pause the music playing)

Check out new info!









I changed some of the side items on our blog. I put new pictures in some areas and I also changed one of the categories. I also updated the info in our bio. I am slowly posting. Today was fun, I enjoyed lunch with friends, shopped in the mall, and other clothes stores without my children. Alex went with her friend Grace (almost all day), and T-Dog and Kaleb had their last day at school. It was pajama day. Tristan wore his Sponge Bob PJ's and Kaleb wore his Incredible Hulk PJ's. (I went and bought them new PJ's to wear for today). Then we went to the park and played with some friends right after school. There were people starring at us. I think it was because our kids had pajamas on in the late afternoon. A couple of us from school went so it was more than just us there. I wanted to yell..."what....it was pajama day at school". Anyway, here is a couple pictures of the boys in their pajamas. They are excited that school is NOW OUT!!! Here is also a picture of Alex (she bought this cute hat with some of the money she earned from hitting the ball in softball...that's a whole story in its self)

My darling, innocent Kaleb (who never gets into anything)






Lately for a treat, I had been eating sugar free jello with whipcream and strawberries.....well Kaleb would watch me fix it and then beg for bites the whole time. One day when I was watching American Idol ,that I recorded and he knew I would zone out, Kaleb decided to make himself a treat....in the corner. He got out a bowl, a spoon, the whipcream, and the strawberries. However, he scooped half the container of whipcream into his bowl and put in ONE strawberry. When I caught him he said, "I was fixin' a snack....where's the other fruit?" He acted like he had a halo around his head. He thought he was doing nothing wrong, because he is a big boy and big boys can fix their own snacks. Kaleb is like a dog. He hides things behind the massage chair. Usually it is food. Some of the items that I frequently find behind the chair are: open soup cans (the kind with the pop lid), spoons, box of malt-o-meal (what is he going to do with that), cracker box, empty wrappers, cheese, yogurt containers (empty), candy wrappers (usually candy he stole from his older sister), chips, Cheeze Its, or anything that he doesn't want anyone to take from him. If anyone is missing something...that is the first place we all go look. So, I was very surprised when I found him in a different corner with his snack. He tried to climb on the counter and hide on the side of the fridge that you can't see from the living room. Maybe he is realizing he needs a new spot.

I'm Free!!

Yesterday was the last day of school for me and Alex. Kaleb and Tristan don't get out till Friday, June 6th. Sooooo, I get two days of freedom. Alex and I are doing girl things for the next two days. We actually went out to lunch and then went shopping (without the boys!!!) (Whoo Hoo!) Don't get me wrong....I love my boys, however it was nice to go shopping and out to lunch without saying, "stop it!!" every 2 seconds. So finally I can post some pictures. I have a bunch of pictures to post and they will probably be out of order because I saved some pictures on my flash drive and then tried to transfer them to one of my computers and somehow they have disappered. When I find them I will post them. I packed up my classroom because we are moving into a brand new building for next year. Our building has sooo many roaches and spiders that I spent half of my packing time screaming...standing on tables....throwing boxes....spraying Raid....and yelling at bugs that have no idea what I am saying!! I went through a whole can of Raid!! Yuck!! I will be very happy to move into a new building. Our building was 53 years old. Frequently we smelled sewer in our room. Doesn't it sound like a great place to be :) Actually....it was the best place to be. I never want to leave my school....our new building that is. Tristan is going to come to my school next year for Kindergarten. I get to pick his teacher for next year. I am excited that I could a zone variance for him. Then when he gets into 1st grade I will move him onto Alex's school...the one we are zoned for (in our neighborhood.) Anyway, Yeah!!! I am done with school!!!

Our life is crazy!

I am apologizing for not posting new things!!! I was on such a roll and then....I don't really know. It is the end of the school year and a billion things need to get done. Our week looks like this: Sunday and Monday: of course church and then on both days we always have Jason's brother and his family over for dinner. Tuesday: Alex has her softball game Wednesday: Tristan has soccer practice Thursday: Kaleb has T-Ball practice Friday: Alex has softball practice Saturday: We have 3 sports games to attend. The last two weekends, Alex has had double headers in 100 degree weather (ahhhhhhhh). The worst thing during the week is all this happens within one hour of arriving home from work and school. So, by the time we do practices, games, homework, dinner, and baths......I am ready to scream!!!! My husband has his 2 jobs that he does during the day and then on Monday and Wednesday nights he teaches History at the college. So, he is just as busy working on his jobs as I am running the kids around after work and school. I have been grading standardized tests, doing report cards, and creating memory books for my kindergartners. (And of course I have been trying to fit the gym in between all of this. ) This past week Jason and I have gone to bed at either 12:30 am, 1:30 am, or 2:00 am and then the wonderful sound of the alarm goes off at 5:10 am. So actually, I should be in bed right now. I tried to make a post of a slide show, but the computer was having problems. Who knows!!! Anyway, school gets out June 4th and then I will beable to relax!!! Okay....I am going to bed now!!! (hey its 10:15 pm......maybe I can get to bed early)
