aubrey's hair

Well you have been asking, no we didn't have to cut Aubrey's hair. It is all still there. We used WD-40 and the gum just comes right out. Yes we have had to use it before and it gets the gum right out. So her hair is safe for now and if you were also wondering I think I gave her gum later that day.

crazy morning

Mason woke up screaming this morning well before 7:00. That is very unlike him. So into my room he came, I was hoping that he would go back to sleep. I asked him if he had a bad dream and he told me yes and then I asked him what it was about and he said bugs. Poor kid. Well needless to say he wouldn't go back to sleep. Then around 9:00 he was really grumpy, so I told him that he needed to go back to his bed and go to sleep. So he climbed back into his bed and went to sleep, how nice is that. I even was able to have a few minutes to myself before Aubrey woke up. Later we were getting ready to go swimming and I was brushing Aubrey's hair, something that neither of us really enjoy. Wouldn't you know it, but there was a big thing of gum in there. Such a pain, now she is grounded from gum for a while.

Watch out world




For some reason I let Mason get a small bat. He loves it when he gets to play with it, but for the most part it stays where he can't hit anything or anyone. Trust me the small plastic bats still hurt when you are hit with them. He is really cute to watch to ready to hit the ball and even does some times. I guess that is why I get it out for him and then end up taking it right back.

Sunday

This has been a Sunday to remember, this is one of the first times that I haven't come home felling stressed and sick of kids. I would love to say that it was an easy Sunday in nursery, but it wasn't in the least bit. I think that all of my kids ended up in the time out chair at least once today. Some more than once and I think that there were only two kids that didn't have to sit there. Mason was hit with a truck that another kid throw and started to bleed. That about describes how the kids were today. But for some reason it just didn't seem to bother me today. I only wish I know what the difference was, because then I could be this way every week. And don't get me wrong, I love my calling. I was told the other day that my 6 months is closer to an end. So I told them that I would stay in as long as they need me, must have been crazy that day. But really I do love it, and I feel like I am just starting to get into things and get things going.

Our 4th

Well I wish that you all would be so much fun reading this, but really we are boring. Mason decided to take a really long nap and Aubrey and I went swimming during this time. We almost didn't go, there was a creepy looking guy hanging out there and no one else was there. But a family came and saved me from having to crush Aubrey's fun. The creepy guy was one that Richard ran into the other day, the guy told Richard that if he ever needed any drugs he was the guy. Super, just what we need around here. We had some left over fireworks from last year, well sparklers, which the kids loved. I was trying to take pictures, but had no batteries. We decided not to go to the fireworks, because Aubrey was tired and we didn't fell like fighting the crowds or even thinking about driving downtown. The streets here are really bad, no I mean it, and they close half of them during the fourth. The other reason why we didn't go is because Mason is scared of loud noises. We also went to Walmart, it a magnet. Our DVD player finally completely died, so we went to get a new one. So there you have our really fun day. Well Richard worked on his homework. I have decided that we are the most boring people in the world and I don't have any pictures.
