Blogging is slow

My mother-in-law actually commented that I haven't blogged lately. It must be pretty bad when people start noticing. We have been so busy lately! I haven't had time to think let alone blog. So here is a catch up and hopefully I can schedule some posts for the next few days.

Last week was kind of a hard week with my K girl. But I had a chance to get away a few times last week. Boy did I need that!

Thursday night I had a Dei Gratia meeting. Friday night we had a Ladies Fellowship at church. The speaker was Miss Suzie (C's AWANA leader). She is a blind lady that lives on her own. She is an amazing lady. She loves C! She actually mentioned him during her devotional. She will miss him next year. And Last Saturday I had a bridal shower for a friend (M). Actually C will be in that wedding on July 4th. We had such a good time! They had good food, fun games (blush!), and she got lots of stuff.

C had a game on Saturday too; he lost but did a very good job. He had another game Monday that he lost too. His game started at 6pm and Daddy's game started at 6:30. So Daddy was late to his game and didn't really get to play. His team lost too. We stayed at the ball park to watch some of the next games and eat dinner at the ball park.

Tuesday I watched 2 kids for a long day. Tuesday after they left, we worked outside. Daddy mowed grass and I cleaned another section of fence. We are trying to clean and stain/seal our fence this year. Wednesday we spent almost the entire day outside. The kids played (play dough-see future post) and I stained the fence. I worked on one section until 5:30 and still have a few touch ups to do. I was burnt, hot, tired, sore, etc. So instead of church we went to Olive Garden.

Thursday the kids and I went to the library. I registered C in a reading contest through one of our local libraries. So I checked out some books that he can read for that. We also did a few errands and met Daddy for lunch.

Friday Daddy got to go to the Indy track for Carb day for the Indy 500 race, which is Sunday. His department called it a "team building" day. It was a nice way for him to start his long weekend. The kids and I did some cleaning and I had C do some "thinking papers" and practice his combinations. After dinner, we went to DQ for some ice cream.

Now we are caught up to today. We went to the park this morning and then came home and set up the pool. We had such a good time! We have decided that today is just a play day. We'll finish cleaning, mow grass, work on the fence, etc. on Monday. So far we have had a very good day!

On a side note, we have been working really hard on potty training. K did so good on Thursday and Friday. She has actually made it to the potty a few times with no mistakes or accidents. But then she's also had a few accidents too. But I'm seeing improvement. It will happen, right?
