I think we are in for a wild night

We asked Lorien and Brianna to spend the night tonight and my kids are wildly excited. Suzanne said her’s were as well. I am thinking it will be a night to remember. lol

I have been really enjoying the meeting. I can’t believe it is close to the end again though. Every year it seems to fly by.  Yesterday afternoon I had a headache that refused to go away and just kept getting worse so I came home and laid down and didnt’ go last night. Sorry to those that were setting up for the food. I had planned to be there and my head just kept getting worse so all I wanted to do was lay down.

I organized Delana’s closet today and got her room cleaned. We has a trash bag full of trash and one full of things to get rid of.  It is a great feeling that I was able to do that. I had planned to do Kyle’s as well but by the time I finished Delana’s it was time to start supper. I was also able to clean alot in the house. I didn’t get the bathrooms done but managed to get the rest. Hopefully I can do Kyle’s room and the bathrooms tomorrow afternoon.

A sick boy …again……

Today the kids were going to Suzanne’s to play for awhile. Kyle came in my room this morning and said he didn’t want to go. Very strange for him. He loves Lorien! LOL  I noticed he was hot and took his temp. sure enough it was 102.5.  I called the doc and told them this was the 3rd time in 6 weeks. Both times before he was sick a week. I took him in and they said he had puss filled pockets in the back of his throat so they knew he had some kind of infection. They said at this point he didn’t need antibiotics though and he didn’t have strep.  So it is a waiting game for us. He slept alot today and he didn’t have fever a little while ago. I hope it doesn’t turn into another week thing because I am looking forward to the meeting.

Sunday both kids got to go stay the night with Curtis’s parents and then came home the next day. It was a good time for them to go since Delana is off school and Kyle out of speech for 2 weeks. They had alot of fun.

Justin and Gabe came saturday and spent the night with us. I took the kids to a birthday party that was also a cookie decorating party sat. night and they loved it. Gabe was eating lots of icing. lol

I am looking forward to Curtis being off work some this week and next. He said today he might go to Justin’s when he gets off tomorrow though so I may not get to see him much until the meeting starts. I think it depends if Justin comes here or not tomorrow if he goes or not.  Friday I have to do a 5 tiered cake as well as another smaller cake, so I will be super busy this weekend with that and the meeting.

Keeping busy

We have been so busy around here. Feels like we have been in a whirlwind. I have done severals cakes for people and Kyle still has speech 2 times a week plus anything else we have to do we have been just busy. At least I don’t have time to be bored. :)

We got a new dryer today. It was a little over 2 weeks ago or maybe it was 3 that our old one caught on fire.  I am so thankful I have a clothesline to hang the clothes out but on very cold days or dreary days I just have been having clothes hanging around the house. It works but it will sure be nice to have a dryer again and not have to worry about the weather.

Dryer Fire excitment and some pics of kids

Today I turned my dryer to the setting I wanted and started putting clothes in. I noticed that it was bright orange in the back!  I wasn’t so worried thinking it was the light somehow coming though until it suddenly got very hot in the dryer!  I was telling Delana I think the dryer is on fire!  I called Curtis and no answer so I called the office and told Melissa I needed to talk to him it was an emergency. When I told him he said unplug it…duh why didn’t I think of that lol.  Anyway I finally got it unplugged and all was well. No idea how it caught on fire but we will be dryer shopping now. :(   After it was all over I was thinking why did I call Curtis?!?!  What could he do 30 minutes away. lol I guess it was just me panicking. |I sure hope my house never catches on fire I will probably call him before I remember to call 911. LOL

Gabriel is staying with Justin for about 5 weeks or so. He came to our house yesterday and Justin is coming friday. It is very exciting here and LOUD!  I have no idea what I would have done if Kyle would have been twins. Here is a picture of them being silly.

boys

Here is Delana peeling carrots for me for our soup last night.
