the nicest day of the year

We are experiencing the nicest days of the year thus far and I have been to sick to be outside. I caught a strep virus somewhere and struggled through work on Monday and was too sick to go coach my volleyball team and then went to work for a meeting yesterday and then came home and slept. Today I am at home for the time being. I am going to try to go to work this afternoon.

Strep at 35 kicks you in the butt. I hate being sick but to be practically bedridden is the pits. It was worse than the c-sections I have.

busy, but with what

It seems if we are busy all the time and not at home at any time, but I am not sure what we are doing that keeps us so busy. We haven't taken a vacation, we haven't had Tigers games to go to, we have only been to see Craig's parents twice this year, so on and so on.

The busy of things of life have been:

I have been coaching my niece, Addie in volleyball. They have played on Mondays and we have had practices on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Tomorrow is our last game. They have made great strides with volleyball, but I know why I don't teach third grade.

We have been working on the house some, in the basement. That is exciting but expensive.

Jared has went to Saturday school a couple of times in preparation for Kindergarten this fall.

We have spent a lot of time with my mom and dad entertaining them. Mom is doing good with her treatments. The Tuesday after Easter she will have another treatment and she will be half way done, yippee!

Kim and I are trying to prepare for Easter dinner and activities for kids. Kim, Missy, and I are trying to prepare for Haley's graduation party and graduation. A lot of these things mom would have been taking care of but we are trying to let her rest so she will be able to go to all of them.

Jenna has become a handful. Since she is crawling I can't leave her because she gets into something.

My dad retired from work a couple of weeks ago so that is hard to get my tiny brain wrapped around. He isn't old enough to retire in my brain, but I guess in his he was. He is enjoying his time off with mom and playing golf with the granddaugher while she was off on Spring break.

Well all these things have kept us extremely busy. Boy am I glad that Spring and Summer days are just around the corner to give me some light when I get home to enjoy the outdoors.

Talk later....

First, second and now what?

First Jenna got the bottom two teeth, then she became just a little mobile. Before I knew she was up crawling everywhere. Now the top two teeth are in. She is crawling like she is going for gold and trying to stand up in the middle of the floor. just this week she started waving and blowing kisses.

Oh my goodness where has the nine months gone. My baby girl is growing up fast. Speaking of baby girls she is ready for her bottle and bed. off to take care of her.
