Wow, my days have been going by so quickly!! Seems like I hit Wednesdays and the rest of the week flies by until Monday! Wed night I had my adventure club class. The kids were really wound up compared to the previous week, which stressed me out a bit.

Thursday I went to my Bible study and enjoyed every minute of that...

Friday, we had a new babysitter over to the house while Rich and I attended the volunteer banquet for church at a nearby country club. The meal was delicious!!! ummm and a nice break from our busy lives! The kids did well w/ the babysitter, and we're excited about having another teen we can call in our time of need!

Saturday (see below). Abby went to her "big girl" gymnastics class. Her coach was not there, which makes her nervous but she soon found out that a different coach does different things. She LOVED the "popcorn" game they did on the trampoline. See the video...


Saturday afternoon we went to a wedding at church for a friend. Then I dropped about 6:30-7pm. I was so tired! I napped on the couch, watched a little TV then went to bed early for the whole night. I must have really needed the extra sleep.


Sunday morning I had a nice surprise from the kids and Rich. Luke gave me a special plate for Mother's day that he had colored and the preschool had made in to a plate to eat on. He also gave me a nice card w/ his hand prints and a poem. Rich took the kids to get me gifts.. Abby gave me a rose plant, and Luke a gold necklace. Rich picked me out a digital frame that I've been wanting. Then we all went out for lunch... rushed off to soccer... came home an hour, then rushed out to eat w/my in-laws for Mother's Day and his mom's birthday. Came home, met up w/ my brother who was passing on his way to Cleveland.. hung out and then got the kids to bed. It was a long crazy day!




Abby playing soccer. She did her best ever today and really seems to be enjoying it more..Abby swinging "up to the clouds" by request. After soccer practice! She would swing ALLLL day if we let her. Like Mother like Daughter!! I used to swing the whole recess period, so I know the feeling! When we take her out she usually throws a fit!Mom found the cover to the bassinet that I made and sent it up during her last visit. I love seeing the bassinet out in our bedroom b/c it looks so sweet and matches our bedroom color scheme. The cover has "Baby _________" (w/ our last name) sewn on the side. I love having it personalized. The kids have been excited to check it out. Abby had no clue what it was for! So while it's a bit early to get it out. I remember feeling so sad to put it away when Abby outgrew it, so I'm gonna get all the time out if it that I can! Here is the bigger picture w/ the bassinet beside my side of the bed.


I'm still dealing w/ a nasty cough. I just can't get rid of it. Rich and I both keep getting coughing spasms at night where we both can't stop. I went to the doctor Friday b/c I was worried about so much coughing w/ the pregnancy, but he just wants me to hold out 5 more days and see how I do.
