From the beginning: June is gone?!?!

Well I can't believe this is the last day of June already! Tomorrow is July 1st?!?! The girls went home tonight after being here since the 17th. It's kinda quiet and lonely without them! I am still shocked and amazed at how smooth the last 2 weeks went having them here. It just felt so normal and no arguing/fighting etc. The attitudes rocked. They cleaned their rooms every day to go to splashzone... It was real nice. We ended up going almost every day since I last posted... Friday, Saturday, Monday, Tuesday and Wed! We had to leave early Wed because while there I was moving Kinleigh from the deeper water to the shallow water and popped her wrist. Turned into a 3hr screaming marathon and a 2 hour trip to the walk in clinic waiting room before she was using it normally and I decided to leave. 5 kids in a waiting room for 2 hours is just no fun! I am so happy to say that she seems fine so I don't have to feel guilty leaving last night. I got the kids all hershey cookies n cream candy bars for being so good in the office.

Today we were supposed to go to splashzone to make up for leaving early yesterday but it was SO WINDY :( It's been a very windy summer so far and not very hot. I hear it's supposed to get real warm next week so the plan is to put the air conditioners in the bedrooms to be safe ;) I'd hate for it to hit 90-100 and NOT have an AC! So we went and picked Daddy up for lunch at the middle school (I packed him a lunch) and then we went to Safeway and bought all different kinds of ice cream and popsicles to make up for no splashzone ;)

Feeling real close to my Mommy today... Why you ask? Cause I found her bra in the closet and decided to give it a try. Call me weird but it fit great and I am in love. She probably won't get it back. Not sure what perfume is on it but it smells like my Mommy and I like it :) It was super supportive for my run with Lindsay tonight ;)

Finally made my mind up on birthday gifts for the kids. Each year due to having July Aug Sept Oct birthdays we try to find a "big" gift that costs more for all of them combined and then a small gift on their birthday. This year we had to fix the trampoline. I was torn weather to fix it or buy a new one. Finally settled on purchasing just the replacement mat and saved myself $150 going that route. I just hope it fits good when it gets here! we're down 5 springs as of today.... LOL I also purchased Kinleigh her carseat. That research was taking forever but I think I'll be pleased with it. I went with the regular True Fit that Wendy recommended. And then yesterday I had to choose...... fix the wii for $92 or buy a new one for $150..... I just went and bought the kids a new black wii. They were surprised and pleased so that was a fun box to bring in the house! So now the old wii is in the girls room so they can watch netflix, play game cube games on that wii and all of the downloaded games. It all worked out nicely :)

So Kinleigh is smarter then anyone gives her credit........At naptime she wanted to nurse and was really grumpy and crying today. She kept trying to crawl into my lap and pull at my shirt to get to the boob. I kept telling her no not now. I was busy editing senior photos. Next thing I know she holds her arm up at me and starts crying OWIE like she did yesterday when her wrist really WAS hurt and I nursed her to help her feel better........ Oh man the kid is trying to work Momma at a young age! Cracked me up!
