Fast paced living...
We've been on the go for the last couple of months. This summer the kids (and Allan and I) have....
*went swimming
*stayed a few nights at a time with grandma's
*had burklee's birthday party
*ran in the sprinklers
*went to a baseball game
*built a pond
*burklee wrote his name ALL OVER the house
*planted flowers and tomato plants
*had a garage sale
*played with cousins
*bridget had a pageant
*visited with family from out of town
*(Allan and I went our annual mini-moon vacation in k.c.)
What we still have to do...
*bridget has another pageant
*back to school shopping
*our anniversary party
*bridgets birthday party
*selling our rental house
*rearranging the house for fall
I know people think I'm absolutely crazy for saying this but, I can't wait until sports and activities for the kids. Next year should be a lot more busy.
On the business front...which I don't typically talk about, Allan and I are trying to get a studio up and going. A wonderful building is open and we're trying very hard to get it. I should be revamping my "brand" soon and also re-structuring my pricing.
That's all for now...

0-3 Grand Supreme
You can guess by the title, Bridget won 0-3 Grand Supreme and divisional best smile! Which is higher than her last title (0-3 Mini Grand Supreme with divisional best smile). She won a princess castle bath set, a custom embroidered pillow and pillowcase, a medal for her smile, a strawberry shortcake kitchen (which we will open in a year or so when she can play with it instead of her brothers loosing all the pieces), a 4 ft trophy, and her crown! I have pictures and will update as soon as I get them on my computer. Aunt Chels (Chelsie-my brothers girlfriend) is my new pageant helper and came to assist me with changing, getting her to smile, and keeping me calm! All in all, it was pretty fun and all the girls (and boys) did so good. There was some strong competition and to be honest, I was really a little nervous!
I haven't been home much the last week so I'll be spending some needed time with my boys!! I'll post pics as soon as I can!

Easter, crowns, and updates!
Bridget- Rolling...everywhere! Starting to crawl, eating baby food....a. lot. of. baby food! Jabbering...dadada bababa. Finally getting her room all decorated, just waiting on curtains.Bridget started doing pageants. She won princess at her first, which was just online so ends up being 2nd), one and mini grand supreme on her second, which is kind of like 3rd. (pics below)
Bartelbe-Contantly on the go...climbing, running, jumping! Loves to be outside and playing. His last dr appt, he was up to 8% in weight which is good considering he dipped down to 4%. We now go every 1 1/2-2 months for weigh ins. He eats everything so they don't know why he isn't gaining. I think its because he's just always on the go. Doesn't stop until he lays down for bed....sometime not even then.
Burklee-Loving preschool and all the friends he's making. Its going to be hard for the first summer, since I don't know a lot of the parents to keep in touch over the next couple of months. Every child recieved a catepillar and they get to watch it grow and draw pictures of it everyday for a book. Burk decided to name is Spikey. Its now in its cacoon and soon should be transforming into the butterfly. They have a butterfly releasing party at the end of the school year at the park with a picnic. He's also getting very tall, skinny, and smart.
We've been working on the house quite a bit. I found a hutch from Salina's buy/sell/trade site and I'm refinishing/ painting it for the kitchen. Tearing out a pond and moving it to an enclosed fenced area so its a little safer, adding fence around the backyard and planting grass seed. When we moved in, the inside was mostly finished so its just the outside that needs a little work.
Allan and I have started making some plans towards our Anniversary Party. Long way to go but hopefully it will be really fun!!
