DAY 201-July 20th (Wednesday)

I had an appt at  2:30 the hearing aid center and didn't want to walk but went and walked anyways.  Gabe stayed home with the kids so he could get Kai down for a nap.  Got there and signed in.. there was a problem with insurance so coldn't do the appt .  Left and texted Gabe to see if he could pick me up but Kai was napping so I walked back home.  Stopped at a park 5 blocks from my house and rested.  Saw a beautiful cat there,  too friendly so it may be lost but Gabe didn't want me to bring him home so I think someone may have taken him home to find the owners.   Finally left to go home.. kids were waiting for me to get home so they can play on the slip n slide. :)   No pictures.. sorry!

DAY 200-July 19th

I woke up at about 5ish and found the kids in a weird position in Casey's bed.  They have been sleeping in the same bed for the past week or two.   some days they slept through the night and other days they sneak in mom and dad's bed.

Day 198-July 17th

We did not go to church because  we were low on gas and money.  So we stayed home and hung out together.  And one of Casey's friend's moms text-ed us back with a possible days for play date. :)  Wanted to wait for the other 2 to text me back so I can coordinate the play date.  No pictures and no scraps today.

DAY 197-July 16th

The kids were having daddy time, wrestling and tickling while I was on the computer, trying to catch up on blogging.  Oh and I text-ed 3 of Casey's friends moms to plan a play date or play dates.   Casey was missing her friends, especially her best friends.. Brooklynn and Cheyenne.  Two of them text ed me back an hour later and will let me know when we will get together. :)

DAY 196-July 15th

I don't remember what we did this day...  We may had gone to the library or just stayed home.
Oh the kids starts school on August 31st..  Daddy took Kaleb's papers except for one piece of paper  in at school.  We don't know when Kinder orientation is on yet.    Kaleb went back to the doctor's office yesterday to check the reading on his arm and his was negative and the doctor did not fill out the papers yet so Gabe was going to pick it up today or Monday.

DAY 195-July 14 (Thursday)

I paid Gabe back by taking a picture of his hair filled with barrettes and clips done by our older daughter.  No other pictures..

DAY 194-July 13th

Pictures of the older two are silly today.   I cleaned out the fridge and it looks better.  Gabriel took a picture of my freaking azz while I was on the floor, cleaning the bottom of the fridge and i am not going to post it.  No way in heck.


imikimi - sharing creativity  about 2 in the afternoon, the older two decides to put on jammies (warm day) and uses socks as gloves.  Silly kids!

DAY 193-July 12th

Happy Birthday, Gabriel 


We woke up at 9, realizing that we had to get Casey to her appt at 930 am which she is not too happy about and Kaleb has a doctor's appt for a TB test and have them fill out a paper work for school.  I stayed with the girls at the dentist office and next door was the doctor's office which Gabe took Kaleb in for.


While Gabe was at a counseling appt with his mother, Casey did some art work for daddy's birthday and I attempted to make a banana  pudding pie which i failed at.  don't know what I did wrong.  Oh well.. it was the thought that counted.  


he came home not happy with his mother or my mom.  Now we can't use the pop up for the camping trip which will take place from July 30th to August 6th or 7th.  Ugh....  


sorry no pictures this time but I will do a scrap of Gabriel as a baby, a child and on his wedding day. :)

DAY 191--July 10th (Sunday)

We didn't go to church because we were tired and didn't get up in time to get ready to go so we stayed home and hung out.. No pictures from today.

I forgot to mention in July 8th blog that we also went to Target.. bought some shampoo, soap, toothpastes and Kai needed new binkies (she either lost or chew on them) and we saw a cute bathing suit on sale for Kai and an aqua t-shirt for Kaleb.  Couldn't find anything for Casey girl.

Kai's new bathing suit.. the bottoms is a little big on her.  we had to decide on either size 18 months or 2t so we got 2T

Kaleb's aqua shirt...

DAY 190-July 9th

We went back to the library to exchange more books.   The kids, even Kai,  dressed themselves in mismatched clothes that they had picked out  today but I did make Casey change her top because the straps on her green top kept on falling off.

DAY 186--July 5th

The kids had dentist appointments this morning and Casey had 4 cavities.  They cleaned her teeth and her 4th loose tooth came out during the cleaning.  They filled the 2 cavities on one side and she was not happy.  Well, Kaleb was not thrilled either and didn't want his teeth cleaned.  I had to sit on the chair and sit him on me so they can do it.  He cried and kicked the whole time.  No cavities for him tho.  Kai had her first teeth cleaning and was fascinated by it.  Sorry no pictures.  Casey has to come back a week from today for the other side.  She was not thrilled to hear about that and couldn't eat for 2 hours. Poor kid!

We havne't seen Vero and her kids in 8 months to a year (her baby girl was about 4 months old last time I saw her) and last time I saw Marcella and her kids was at Kai's 2nd birthday party.
The kids had fun, eating crackers and playing in the water.   We left about 1ish because we (my kids and myself, even hubby) were hungry.  Oh and my mom needed to use our car to do some errands.

At 1pm we went to one of the PTA mom's house for the pool party and stayed for several hours.   Kaleb and Kai didn't last long the first hour of swimming and changed.   Kai wanted to nurse and nap so she did for 2 hours.   Casey was in the water the longest but the older two did go back in the water so we had to change them again LOL.    We had potluck lunch and there were some yummy desserts.  We brought jello which no one except for my family ate. mm...
