Finally.........

Well I know I haven't blogged in ages so I don't have any pictures but I thought I would bring you all up to speed on what has been going on in our lives. Well as you all know I have been taking summer classes at JCC. Let me just tell you what my schedule has been like the past two weeks. Last Wednesday i had Exam 3 in math, then on Saturday we had Lauren's second birthday party, Monday I had CPR class, and then Wednesday I had exam 4 in math and Thursday Final Exam in math. Lauren's b-day was awesome! She had a blast playing in her frosting. She got these cool green shoes from my cousin and would not take them off. She loves them! I hate math! I have also been good at math but I absolutely HATE it! Well as the short 6 week semester came to a quick end I had a test on a Wednesday, and than one on the following Wednesday and then our Final exam was to be on Thursday. I got very sick, allergies, before our Wednesday exam. I still managed to get an 84% but that was a lot lower then my first 2 test that were 92%. So with that test out of the way I was trying to study as much as I could to make up for it. Then we found out or Awesome Instructor made the final exam optional!!!!!! Yeah!!!! I got a 90% on the 4 Exam which made my average test grade 89.5% he put that for my Final Exam grade and over all 4.0 in the class, YEAH!!!!! How AWESOME IS THAT. On Monday my sister watched my kids so I could go take a CPR class for my other summer class. I am also taking Intro to Health Occupations and I have to get CPR certified for that class and for my program. So I get to the class on Monday and they mention something about the test being after Wednesday nights class, I am thinking wait a minute we have to come on Wednesday night too. Turns out it wasn't a Monday or Wednesday night class, it was Monday and Wednesday night. Oh well, the class and the people I was with were really fun. Oh yeah and I passed.

Hey Kari, what's the ratio of chest compressions to rescue breaths................times up 30:2 and STAND CLEAR machine is scanning.......STAND CLEAR ready to SHOCK! lol

So now that my week is over and my math class is done I have 5 more quiz's for my other classes, one more big paper and a few discussions to do and I am D.U.N. for the semester!!!!!! I am gonna rock this semester and 4.0 both classes which will dramatically raise my GPA and hopefully get me into my program for Winter semester. Well this weekend I will get some pictures up and talk more about the kids. TTYL!

Here are few pictures from the weekend.

Goodnight!

Well little miss Lauren has woken up so I took a few more pictures. I am not gonna write anything but they were so cute tonight!

Relaxing weekend....

Well I got out of work at 1pm on Friday and so the kids and I went home and cleaned house. It was such a hot day that we went to the nasty Grass Lake park. Not a good experience. There was bird poop everywhere in the grass and the lake was nasty too. We didn't stay long. We went and got dinner and then came home. Lauren fell asleep the second we got into the garage, like 6pm. She slept till 8:30 the next morning. Kari came out Friday night and so did my niece angel. The kids played and Kari, Jack, Carson and I went for a walk when it got dark and was cooler out. Then we all went to bed!











Saturday we woke up and Kari cooked us a great breakfast. Then the kids went to the park and I mowed my lawn, believe it or not! Then we set up the slip-n-slide and filled our little pool. I had to show the kids how to slip-n-slide cause they weren't doing it right, unfortunately there is no picture of that. The kids had a blast they played out side all day. Carson played in the mud and it was soooooo funny! Kenedey brought him in and he was covered in mud. We put him in the tub, his diaper was BLACK! So we got him all clean and made him some lunch. He was one tired little dude. The kids ate and once again returned to the outdoors to play.

At night once Carson and Lauren were asleep I took Jack, Kenedey and Angel in Kayla's convertible to get candy and movies. When we got home they watched movies and we scrap booked. Ken taught Angel how to scrap book. We all had a blast.

Sunday morning Kari made another great breakfast and we just chilled. Kids went to the park again. Tina, my sister, came over with my brother Dan's kids, Caleb and Caden. Poor Caden was crying because he is not use to going to other people's houses. It was so sad to see that he was sooooooo upset. Caleb was fine. I got a big bear hug and he loved playing with Jack. I took lots of pictures of them. They are so adorable! It was rainy so we just had a chill afternoon.

At about 4pm we didn't see Lauren. We looked around and she had fallen asleep on Jack's train table! It was sooooo precious. Now we are just hangin out. Lauren is still asleep and Jack and I are watching movies. It has been a very relaxed weekend and a very chili, layin low kinda day.

Another day

Well nothing special today. I had a test, I am not sure how well I did though. This test was a lot tougher than the last. I think it will be ok though. It was to hot to play outside today so we stayed in tonight. I figured they were outside pretty much all day we could play inside tonight. We played tag, hide n go seek, and tickle monster, thats what Jack calls it. At bed time Lauren went down easy, as usual, Jack on the other hand was not so good. When I want to check on Lauren she was so cute I couldn't resist taking pictures. So now that is all! MUAH!!!!

Train tracks.....

So last night was a pretty good night. We got outback for dinner. It was so hot I didn't wanna cook inside and our grill is outta gas so we ordered out. It was yummy! The kids were behaving and so I let them ride the jeep down to the railroad tracks. It is their favorite place to go. When we got down there I tried to take their oictures but once again Lauren was to pre occupied to pose. When we got back to the house they played for a while and then we came in cause it was like 90 out. They took baths while I clean. When they went to bed I studied like always. I have a test today, so wish me luck. Love you all, muah!

Sad day......

My mom returned to Florida on Monday. We woke up and played outside for a while. Then we took the kids to McDonald's. They had a blast. We got a new battery for Jack's jeep. Then we went to the Dairy Queen. When Grammy came to get my mom to go to the airport the kids were sad. Jack wasn't to bad but Lauren was MAD!!!!!! She wanted to go with them soooooo bad.

So once Lauren calmed down we went inside and she went down for a nap. Jack and I played outside for a while and than he told me he was tired. With both the kids napping I studied.

After dinner they played very well together. Jack got on his tigger and asked Lauren if she wanted to go for a ride on his motorcycle. It was so cute. Then he asked if I would take their picture so I went and got the camera but Lauren will not pose for the camera. With no new Desperate Housewives episodes the rest of the night was pretty boring. Love you all!

Captain Jack returns!

Well Friday night Jack and my mom came home from Florida. I was so happy to see my little man. I expected him to look different but of course he didn't. Saturday morning Lauren was so excited to see him and my mom. She was hugging him and kissing him and so excited for them to both be here.

Jack and I went into town and he picked out this cool tractor pillow on real wheels. He got Lauren a barbie pad of paper and pen, she loved it. We stopped at Starbucks and he got a sugar free vanilla frappacinno. When we returned home we all got ready and headed out to the farm for Rayel's open house.

Once we arrived at the farm Jack was instantly asking about the John Deere's and getting on them. Lauren was more into the cows and the pigs and still attached to gamma's hip. W had so much fun. They played non stop with Kenedey and Carson and J.J. and everyone else. They were not happy when it was time to leave but they were tired.

They napped on the way home and then when we got home we went and rented movies. Then we popped popcorn and we made Laurens room into a movie theater. They were inseparable. They watched part of the movie and played in Jack's room together. When it was time for bed they threw a fit cause I was making Jack go to his room. So we made Jack a bed on the floor and that is where he fell asleep.

On Sunday morning we went to the farm for breakfast. Jack played out with the boys and Lauren played with the animals again. She stuck with Angie about the whole time.

Then we went to Lee's and played. He made a slide for them. We call it the red neck hill slider thing. He got a card board box and attached a long rope to it. The kids would slide down the hill and then we would pull it back up the hill. Unfortunately my mom has those picture on a disposable camera. I will post them in a few days...I hope. Then we ate with Lee's mom and brother Lou. Lou took us out on his boat and that was really fun. Lauren loved the geese, she called them ducks and Jack had to correct her. We stopped at pat and cork's to see everyone for a little while then we came home and they were wore out. They both took a bath and then were down for the count. Pretty easy night, lol!
