Weekend in Review

We had a great time Friday and Saturday with family.  The wedding was great fun great food and lots catching up on family news. and then on Saturday Lee took the older kids to the river for the majority of the day they had a ton of fun although Lee did something that he shouldn't have done and hurt his back.  The little boys slept for four hours during nap time and it was amazing.  Saturday night we got together with several relatives who had come for the wedding but hadn't left for home yet.  I really enjoy hanging out with Lee's family.  They are loud and crazy but we love them anyway.  I so wish we were going to the beach this year.  But we aren't.  For sure next year.  

Luke has decided that he doesn't want to nap today.  So he is super grouchy.  Then Andrew decided he wanted to finger paint with the contents of his diaper. Really it has been one those days where I just want to run away and hide.  The house is a mess.  I want it clean before we leave town on Wednesday.  But tomorrow will be packing day. 

I interviewed for three different jobs and the one I thought would be the best is the one that I think will work out the least and then the one where I didn't really want is now the one I think I want the most.  Go figure. 

Luke is almost crawling I am pretty sure that in the next week by the time we get home from McCall he will be crawling.

Lee's cousin asked us a religious question that stumped me.  She said she had asked several different people and nobody can give her a straight answer.  She said that her husband and her were slightly annoyed by it.

All in all a great weekend.

I need to get some pictures on here.

I am planning my yearly shopping dates with the kids.  I take them to dinner and we go back to school clothes shopping.  Only a month left until school starts. 

If I go back to work I need to find a babysitter.  Ours is getting divorced and moving and a million other things so she is unable to babysit any more.

Random Thoughts

I sometimes wonder where to draw the line in this whole blogging thing.  I could make us look like the "perfect" family or I could deal with all of our disappointment and make everybody think that we quite possible have the worse life ever.  Or maybe there is a middle ground somewhere that I have yet to find in this blog.  Today was a rough day.  Don't get me wrong I am so excited that everybody around me is having babies.  But for some reason today I was caught up in the losses all over again.  I am wondering when it stops.  Maybe it never does.  Maybe it will be a life time of wondering what if I would have gone full term.  Several people have asked when (or if) we are going to have another baby.  I am not sure.  Sometimes that answer is yes and sometimes it is no.  But one thing is for certain it isn't right now.  Really I don't need to have a ton of kids to fill some void.  I love my two kids and if that is all ...

February

February was a tough month both mentally and financially.  The light at the tunnel was Phoenix.  Kids had a blast and it was great way to end an otherwise crazy chaotic month.  My goals were blah.  We paid off  more credit card debt then I though but I didn't sew as much as I wanted and I didn't run as much as I should have.  I also didn't read or declutter as much as I planned to.   Although I did reach my goal for losing weight.  So not a total loss. At some point I will file taxes and write a check to the state of Idaho.  I keep putting it off for several reasons.  At some point we will a check from FSA and our gap insurance.  Although a ten page EOB probably will take a while to get through. I think it was just one thing after another and I never felt like I gained my footing.  Maybe because I worked more.  Which lead to more in savings.  Still not where I want to be.  But better then it coul...

Family News

What a weekend.  I blew out a tire 5 minutes into the trip and then had to switch out vans we hit some snow but nothing major.  The kids had a blast playing with the boys and although the bishop spoke too long at the ceremony the wedding was nice.  The reception was nice and the kids ran around with their cousins and Lee and I were able to catch up with everybody on their lives.  I am glad our kids are older and don't need constant supervision.  Several of Lee's cousins have kids in the 12-24 months age range.  That age is so hard and there was no way they would be able to run around with out adult supervision.  It was nice to get some family news like one cousin is a polygamist and another is getting married very shortly.   Another is traveling the world and another has made their home in the mountains.  One cousin is trying to qualify for the Boston Marathon and another is just trying to survive her husband's major depression.  Sev...
