Trike A Thon

2010 St. Jude Trike A Thon

 We all had a wonderful time at the park on Saturday. Great Weather, Great People, Great Cause! We raised money to support the children of St.Jude's. Connor is doing great on his bike and rode the loop two times around really fast. I had to run to keep up with him. Don pushed Mara in her cozy coupe and she still had fun sipping on her juice and enjoying her soft pretzel. After the fundraiser we spent some time going down slides and swinging on the swings. Connor and Lauren were having fun tagging along together. Connor thought it would be nice if he pushed Lauren on the swings so he did just that for a little while and they moved on to running around and being crazy together.  Samara got to play with her friend Kiera and she was very proud of Kiera riding her tricycle. Mara experienced her first time swinging on the big kid swings. I think this means she is growing up just way to quick. Another milestone in my little girls world. Now hopefully I can remember to put this in the baby book!  It was a great Saturday morning and in the afternoon we got to visit with Uncle Andy and take Pop Pop to Outback for his birthday dinner which was oh so yummy. The kids adore their Uncle and have so much fun running around with him. I'm sure Uncle Andy needed a week to recoup after spending two days with the kids. We are just getting him ready for the 4th of July when we will be in DC for three days driving Uncle Andy nuts.

House Updates

We are still waiting to hear back from several realtors. We have had two showings of people who have came back twice and on Sunday will have our third two time showing, but for some reason just have not heard back from them after they are hear for the second time. We are still hopeful that our house will sell soon seeing that we have only been on the market for 9 days and have had so many people come see it. Don and I really need to start looking at some houses soon before we end up living with Pop Pop for a few months and we all know that will be CRAZY!

Pregnancy Update
Well, I am almost fifteen weeks now and feeling great today as last week I got stept throat and then a terrible sinus infection and felt horrible for what seems like forever. I was talking with Don last night and said to him, "you do realize that we haven't taken one single picture of my belly since I found out I was pregnant, right?" Is this what the future holds for baby #3....no pictures, no baby book, no scrapping, etc. I can already see the difference between Connor and Mara and now this baby will surely get the shaft. Thank goodness for blogger and the printable blog books. I just have to figure out this whole picassa-blogger connection and find out why it isn't letting me upload pictures. It wants me to buy more storage even after I deleted about a years worth of files. I can't seem to figure this one out. Help Anyone? 
 Well, I had to break down and pay the $5 for extra storage(Google got the best of me...but I couldn't go another day without blogging, so hopefully next time this happens I will have the patience and time to figure this one out. Nickie, if you could send out a message to your peeps and see if this ever happened to anyone else. Thanks:)
Uncle Andy's Visit

 Uncle Andy came bearing gifts for the kids like usual. You are going to have to stop this soon or the kids will be upset when the day comes that they don't get something the minute you walk in the door. They really love their conductor hats and sand toys. Mara has been playing  with her toys everyday since you were here last. We are definitely looking forward to our visit this summer with you and the kids miss you tons already. HUGS!
