What is going on now..

First and foremost - I think after alot of hassle - the bathroom is done! For such a little room - it actually caused us alot of problems!! And I still have a pair of shorts with a big spot of paint on the back to show where I fell into the wall!! So here is a picture of the paint and a better picture of the shower curtain we based the room on. The room is so small I couldn't get a very wide angle pic - sorry. I think our final step is to get a wall shelving unit and for the kids and I to do a cute little craft based off of the curtain that I can frame for art! One room down 5 + to go!!!! ha-ha!


Lexi is becoming a very inquistive almost 4 year old. Caily I get to answer at least half a dozen - "Mommy why we have cars?" "Why we have houses?" "Why we have forks?" "why we have clothes?" "why we have bathrooms?" and on and on!!! It is actually really cute right now but I am sure soon I will go crazy! Here is a quick picture taken last week while she was posing for me. She is still the sweetest little thing with the funniest personality! My girlfriend Karrie calls her 'a little pocketfull of sunshine'. But I must admit... she has all of a sudden taken on the attitude of 'if I can't have my way I am going to scream and cry!' - I SO wish this will be a short lived thing...... Pray for me.

Logan is really picking up in his reading. We are having so much fun watching him get excited about reading and helping to read a book to Lexi every night at bedtime. When we went to the library last week - I came home with 14 books that Logan had picked out!!! Wow!! And since Logan needs money to spend when we go to DisneyWorld - Daddy is being extremely generous and paying him a dollar a day if he reads a book!!! Better than just giving him the money! hee-hee And school starts in only 3 weeks! He is so excited to be in the first grade and to eat lunch at school!! I hope it last for more than just the first week!!!


This week is Vacation Bible School at church so we have been very busy during the day and since I am co-craft chair - we have had to get there early each morning so I can safely say that we are all tired and in need of a day at the pool!!!!!!!! Next week here we come!!!

On the 17th I had a surgery with the plans to remove my right ovary and a mass formed there (cancer marker tests look great so that is not a concern Thank God) but with what they found - they decided to stop the surgery and just schedule me for a complete hysterectomy. Since we aren't in a rush - the Dr has no problem waiting until after our Disney trip in September. So October 7th is the scheduled day of surgery and what a great birthday gift for me!!!! Oh well - what a great excuse to actually get some sleep and to sit around and do nothing and not feel guilty!

I have actually gotten a couple scrapbook pages done! Not much and most of them are very plain and to the point but at least I am finally getting back to it! Let's hope this is finally the start of my reinvestment into creativity!!!!!


And last but definately not least.... I am impatiently waiting for the release of Breaking Dawn the final book in the Twilight Series. My friend and I are going at midnight tomorrow night for the release party and to get our copy. SO... I will not be sleeping much Friday night/Saturday!! So don't call me - I won't answer the phone!!! ;)

Have a wonderful weekend and I'll work on getting some more pictures of the kids!

Love you all!

PS. Please keep in your prayers my Mother in law Mrs. Perry, My Sister in Law Kay and my friends Mom, Mrs. Hogg - they are all battling forms of cancer and are in need of all the healing prayers they can recieve. Thank you much!
