Memorial Day Weekend Begins
Its Friday, the first of the holiday weekend. jeffrey's last full day of school. He goes in Tuesday for a half day, during which time they will walk to a nearby field, play games and have a picnic lunch. No way he's going to miss that! :) Then one day next week K is going to drive down to his mom's and get a load of stuff (tables, shelves) and possibly bring her back as well. I don't think she will stay long, as she has to hire a real estate agent and put her house on the market. But she hasn't seen the new baby yet so it would be nice if she could come even briefly! K says she is going to buy a house after she sells hers, and most likely here in PA near us, but who knows, K is great at assuming things without knowing the facts.
My mother is coming this evening and staying til after church Sunday. I have some cleaning to do after K gets back from picking up J. Baby C is sleeping in her Jumperoo so I have 2 hands to type with! N is doing some art work at the kitchen table, P is watching the cartoons I put on for N. N had pudding for breakfast. I can hear our mother's gasping with shock. But does it really matter? At least it has some calcium in it. I am tired of food battles, let them eat what they want, when they want. Within reason I suppose.....
The crew finally finished our yard around the new garage yesterday and today's rain should be a nice start on the new grass. It will be exciting to show my mother the new garage, I just wish we had more done but Kevin was sick for a week or more so very little was done in that time, the basement is still filled with boxes of stuff that needs to be put in the garage and the garage is still waiting on shelves for his tools and construction stuff which is laying all over the floor. Oh well, we never claimed to be perfect :)
C was up on her hands and knees today, tummy clearing the floor! With all the others I never wanted them to walk early or anything but with her I am very much looking forward to it! She's so cute. Well they all were of course, as they all look alike. Now she's awake. And nursing. I am not looking forward to the day she weans, but that is far in the future anyhow :)
