Taking A Break


Stink Bug and Ladybug take a break from packing to dance!

Water Bug is happy watching them. We packed 15 boxes yesterday and threw away lots of junk/trash. Back to packing!

She Has Arrived!!!




Ladybug's American Girl doll has arrived! She has been asking for one since last year. She has saved her birthday money and any other money she has earned and payed for it all by herself! Today when the door bell rang, screams of joy rang through the house when she saw the box on the front porch! Thank you to everyone who sent her money for her birthday to use towards her doll!

ps I just heard her singing Happy Birthday to her doll :)

Swimming With Friends







Friends of ours have moved (it seems like everyone is moving) into a new home with a pool! They are good friends of ours and have been a source of inspiration in our homeschooling. They used to live around the corner and now they have moved 20 minutes away. They are not far away but we used to be able to walk to their house. We went over on Tuesday to go swimming and eat lunch. The kids had a great time! Water Bug is still sick and he slept quite a bit--poor baby. Hope you are keeping cool!

And Then There Was Four

My hubby went out of town this week and took three kids with him--Lightning, Jitter and Wheel Bug. They went with dad to visit their Grandparents. WOW what a difference three gone makes! It is so quiet here! I can not believe the silence. It was a nice change the first day (especially since Water Bug is sick) but now I am going crazy! I don't miss screaming (happily) kids, I just miss all the talking and laughing which can get really loud! There has not been one argument between the kids I have home now, that's great but they also are not talking to each other they are just doing their own thing. I did bring them together last night and played a game with them. I miss the kids (and hubby) very much but, I am going to take this time to get a lot of packing done.

Swimming











Today was a great day to swim! Friends of ours are moving to Oregon on Friday so we spent the afternoon swimming at their pool. We had lots of fun! jitter Bug went under water for the first time -- he liked it and did it many times! He also jumped off the edge of the pool by himself! I have been telling him all summer that he can touch the bottom of the pool in the shallow end -- he tried it and was sooo happy that he walked all around! It was a day of firsts for him! Way to go Jitter Bug! After we finished swimming we said goodbye to our friends the Foggs! We will miss them!
