Life here since the holidays has been busy, to say the least! With me working full time during the day now, and trying to cram everything else into the evenings, I dont have time for many extras. So, lets see, how to re-cap three months?
Kaila has made the honor roll at school both quarters so far! She is now tutoring after school. She loves the 'Tutor' status, but, describes her charge as "A rotten nasty, miserable little beast. I hope every day that the little monsters stays home sick." At my dad's recent 80th birthday dinner, one of my brothers began bragging he was tutoring third graders. Kaila was so un-impressed. She announced she was, too.
Lexi is Lexi. She is also doing great in school, but her personality is so much fun. She has informed just about everyone, that she WILL be rich, when she grows up, she will have a mansion, and a Butler. Her facination for butlers has been long standing. For her recent 7th birthday, i actually considered looking to see if i could rent one for the day. The child is steadfast in her wish for a Butler. Do people still have Butlers? Where does one find a Butler? And when one has a Butler, what does one DO with a Butler? I suppose we will find out, eventually, when Lex hires one...
JosephBedoseph. Well. I have bought more science, dinosaur, universe, galaxy, earth, assorted question books, than i ever thought i would own. I cannot keep up with his constant thirst for every single possible thing there is to know about one subject or another. When he settles on something, he obssesses ceaslesly about it, untill he has exhusted all information supplies available. We've delved into so many different subjects, and demands to go to the science museum, than I can possibly count. But he is also a happy go lucky kid, who will happliy pick up, and clean up, (unlike his slobs for sisters...) and who loves to help with any job. He also has adopted Mr. Parker, down the street, a young (er) guy two doors down, who cannot walk into Joe's line of vision, without Joe trotting down to ask if he can help with one project or another. And, Mr. Parker pays in chocolate. (Which would explain the constantly happy Mrs. (Almost) Parker.....)
And then we have George. He is a walking, babbling, head strong baby, who loves to bounce ceaslessly, and has a built in radar device for all things sharp and pointy. He also seems to have a personal vendetta against the toilet paper roll in the bathroom, and finds it his daily duty to unravel it at least twice. He is on the verge of being spoiled by doting siblings, and has recently figured out how to throw an impressive tantrum, but, overall, he is a happy, content baby, who is absolutely, definately a mam's boy through and through!
Me? I'm thinking about going back to school, and working toward my RN license. We will see, though. It may have to wait a few years. Mostly though, I work, and come home and cook and clean and do laundry.... I have a gym membership, and I love to go after work, but, with babysitting issues, and getting back home in time to pick up or drop off kids, or just being too tired, i dont get there as ofen as I would like to. I'm pretty sure I have a husband kicking around someplace. He is gone before I get home, and I am getting out of bed generaly when he is getting into it. I work every other weekend, but am still home by 3, but, by the time I cram everything that needs to be done in, I'm usually asleep shortly after the kids are.
Anyhow, thats a brief update. I am going to see is I can post pictures on this somehow.... be patient! My proper Blog should hopefully be back soon!!
