Busy, Busy, Busy

OMG. I can hardly keep up. Almost been a month since my last post. Started my new job last week and am working 20 hrs per week. The girls are busy with Girl Scouts and bell ringing at church. Big sis says she'd like to do gymastics too and I said "Sure we"ll get right on that"- we'll fit it in somewhere between homework, dinner, taking care of 2 puppies, and 20 minutes of reading per child each night (where they have been demanding to only read to Mom) and baths.
Well, last night I reached my limit of this Mom only stuff and told them I don't care if they read to their puppies or the wall as long as they are reading. Apparently, dad's aren't as good of listeners?

Last weekend Big sis had her first weekend girl scout camp ever and had a blast. Sure was quiet around here, if you know what I mean. I had a fundraiser dinner on Fri to attend and we even went on a date on Sat.

This weekend we'll be going to the Circus -maybe figuratively as well, since Dad is out of town. And big sis is going to accolyte at church for the first time. Prayers please.

The next few weeks we are blessed to be having visitors. Briguys parents are coming for one week and then my mom is coming for 1 week. We are excited. Weather has been beautiful here-still in the 80's but I think it is going to turn next week. Also getting ready to plan big sis's 9th bday-movie, pizza, and a sleepover- yeah! my mom will be here to help!
