Coming up for Air!

What a busy month or two we've had! It seems there's no end in sight either. Where to begin??? Tayler is gearing up for 8th grade and is kind of excited and anxious to get back to school next month! Sam really has no idea what Kindergarten means, he just know's it's "school" and really hopes they have show and tell! Sam has lost two teeth now and cant' wait to lose more, he thinks the money he gets is really cool. He got 6 quarters last time because he's 6 now ya know. Jack is crawling all over the place and is into everything. He can open cabinets, pull stuff out, squeeze himself through any crack possible and loves Bailey's water bowl. We've had to cage the lil monster in the living room for now until we can get the locks on the kitchen cabinets, he likes to pull stuff out of there. Jamie is about ready to be done with this duty and ready to move on to shore duty, he has until April or May of next year however, so it could be a long few months for him! He recently finished our bathroom (for now anyway). He textured, painted and primed the walls finally (the blue tape has only been an accessory in my bathroom since October), put up a cabinet over the toilet, and put up a new mirror (I didnt' have a mirror in there either since October). Just over a week ago I had to have my gall bladder out. I had an impressively large, almost record breaking (ok that might be a bit much but you get the idea) gall stone. That was no fun let me tell you. I never knew coughing could be so painful, it felt like my insides were ripping apart. The healing process has been ALOT slower than i'd like it to be. I don't know if it's because i'm older or if that's just how healing from this kind of surgery is, I prefer to focus on the later. We also had an airconditioner put in our house, boy what a difference. It got up to 95 degrees INSIDE our house a few times, it really was quite miserable and even Jack had a hard time sleeping. One day I even packed the kids and the dog up and went for a 5 hour drive just so we could be cooler in the car. We figured that was enough and went ahead and put the a/c in. Ahhh, so much better! The next few weeks are going to continue to be busy for us. I have go to get some school shopping done for both of the boys, make sure they are all signed up for school and the right classes and all, and I'm gearing up for a new MOPS year! I'm SO excited and am really looking forward to being on our Steering team for MOPS (mothers of preschoolers incase you were wondering). So in a nutshell that's us at the moment, we all know it could change any minute now! Thank you God for a wonderful healthy happy family!!!
And now some new random pictures!

Jack will cuddle with anyone when he's in the mood
Do you think he likes his swing?
