Tuesday...... It's been a busy week............ We recovered from our spring break last week... the kids were kinda at their dad's, well Yzabella was here and there as usual. I'm just glad to have everyone back on their regular schedule back to their activities and back to regular life as we know it all in one safe piece. Jurnee had his big birthday party at "Outer Limits" they had a good time and I got to meet most of his new friends and their parents at Indian Hills. They got to do laser tag, eat pizza play video games, play miniature golf etc.. It was a fun place because there was plenty for the kids to do of ALL ages. The birthday package even included a hostess who took care of everything, even lighting the cake all I had to do was watch!! It was wonderful. I got the idea from Dylan's Birthday party. Jurnee is quite the social butterfly, It's hard to believe my baby is now 11!!! Yzabella and I are going to her pre-kindergarten orientation on Thursday. I can't believe that one either. Maddox has joined the world of climbers, the table, the chairs, the fireplace, the bathroom counter, the toilet, you name it he will try to climb it no fear! Drew is ready to start walking...if he could.. we set up the bounce swivel chair for him on Thursday and he loved it. Jared and Cara went and bought one for him on Friday and from my understanding he is a very happy camper he loves it!! Manny left today for Chico, California and of course it started to snow again along with the other 5 inches we got two days ago. I along with everyone else am sick of it!! Enough already!!! Kim I know what you mean about the boys behavior, for the most part all of Jurnee's friends behaved but there of course was the ONE kid that the language was questionable, the teasing a little bullish and manners ya right what manners?! But I guess out of the 13 boys (not including younger siblings) that's not to bad. My new parenting skill with Yzabella is....Her room is completely boxed up in u-haul boxes right now except her bedding, winter wear and clothes. She has to earn her stuff back box by box. Extreme maybe...but it is working... Well I need to get ready for Yzabella's dance, so chat more later.

Drew in the bouncer chair..........he loves it... Drew and Maddox talking

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY FOR ALL YOU GREEN LOVERS!!!!

Have a couple of green beers and call it good!
We are doing the same ol' thing, just running around with kids. It looked like the GREENbay crew had a good time. I'm a little jealous of the water massages they looked awesome. Good luck to Alex that's pretty exciting. We actually have the sun shining on us today so hopefully things will start turning GREEN instead of brown. Well off to dance chat more later.
