The Bug and The Drama Queen

Valleys and Hilltops

It has been a rough few weeks for us here.

Without going into too much detail..

Brad has had a rough week with his "attacks" and I have been dealing with a few things on my plate as well.

BUT

in the midst of it all....

we STILL manage to find some time for fun....

Here is a video of the "kids" out in the lake: (note drama mama's diaper..and WHY we need to get some swimmers! LOL)

That girl has a blast. Maybe I should change her name to "fish girl"...cause thats what this child IS! If she see's water....its ALL over with. Count on her finding a way to play or swim in it. We SERIOUSLY need to get her swimming. A few more times in the lake, and I think we'll have it.

Here is Daddy and Bug messing around. This video cracks me up!

I have a few more to share...but it is time for lunch, and I have a hungry monster here.

My time is cut short (as usual) :) but thats o.k ... I wouldnt have it any other way! :)

My love to all!~

One Proud Mom

Yup,

thats me.

Well, let me explain.

We were at the playground over the weekend and I was playing around with them when all of a sudden I heard Bug saying this...

I was AMAZED!

I mean I knew he was learning stuff at school....but I had NO idea how fast he would pick stuff up.

He can also sing some of the songs that we used to sing after...like "Oh beautiful"....and such.

:)

WOW.

I am so darn PROUD of him. :)

Maybe our next president? ha ha

hey...you never know!~

Now Onto drama Mama.

She was cracking me up the other day with this q-tip she found. (thank goodness it wasnt a crayon! LOL) Of course she stopped as I got the camera rolling (the bugger) but here is the video anyway...

And then lastly....

We got a dock put in over the weekend (since we have talked about getting a pontoon boat) and my husband has already broken it in.

*without much luck I might add* ar ar

BUT..

Sammy is VERY excited to go swimming, and has been BEGGING us for a water trampoline, (it seems most of the families around here have one) I told him he should go and make friends! LOL

In other news:

I have been planning Bugs birthday party. We have decided to have in up in Virginia ( I would say "down in Virginia" cause thats the way I say it...but I KNOW I would hear about it. LOL) since all his cousins and friends from church are there.

My brother was kind enough to let me have it at his house where he has a HUGE fenced in backyard with a trampoline.....plus we are going to turn the sprinklers on as well! :)

It should be a blast!!!

I sent out the "Lightning McQueen" invites yesterday.

I still can't believe my "baby" is going to be 5.

*sigh*

Its been such a WONDERFUL 5 years with him. I couldnt even BEGIN to tell you!

He is SOOOO excited to be 5...and he keeps reminding me..."then after 5...I'm gonna be 6 right mommy?..then I can watch spongebob like Matthew right mom?"

Yeah right.

Keep dreaming son!

Oh and one more bit of news:

My VERY VERY good friend (She was my roomie in high school, and she was my matron of honor at my wedding) has had her TWINS!!!!

CONGRATS NANCY!!

She had 2 ADORABLE healthy boys!!

WELCOME VINCENT AND JOSEF!!!!

And congrats to their brothers and sister....Taelen, Zhaylen, Setta, and Mehdi!

I am looking forward to going to visit, and helping her out! :) I just LOVE babies! :)

She is SOOO blessed...and what a GREAT mom!

TTFN~~
