Our house paperwork. . Not working out so well on the business end. Took off today for our appointment to sign, and here we are with technical difficulties. Moral of the story: if you pray for patience, it will be tested. Life can be so mysterious. We wait and pray that they can pull it all together on time. In a positive note, I did get to run errands with the Hubs on a Wednesday.

Giving my mom her house back, one room at a time.

Highlights of my day

Work
Dr appointment (another ultrasound and possible biopsy needed. Ugh)
Trip to Super Target
Bridal shower for future SIL
Asked if I was FIFTEEN
Argue with my children to go to bed
I find my bed
And wake up today praying for good news on the house. Everybody pray.

True story

Back in high school, if I was having a bad day I would go out and buy myself a new pillow. I gained quite the collection. (we have not had to purchase any for our children with some leftover) you could even buy a single pillowcase of the character of your liking. Not like now where everything is bundled in a set. Pillows should resemble your personality for the week! Or month depending on when you change them haha. What is my point. I feel like today I could have bought a new pillow. Perhaps by the end of this week I may need a few.

I looked over my children sitting on the bench at church today and one daughter was wearing Buzz Lightyear socks and the other Hello Kitty. I pointed it out to my husband in which he replied " I know where they got it from." Then he tells me that matching is not my style. Is it true?

How did the store know that I would be in line with three onry children, becoming a frustated mother. How nice of them to place a sale on the M & Ms located perfectly for little hands. And for offering such a selection of chocolate. And to think we just went in to buy their father a birthday present. At least we saved a dollar!

Happy bday!

Where did we go today?

                       A place with new places to search out and find new hide and seek spots.

                        A place for a new man cave, where the men can dream and get greasy.

                                             A place for our family. Our home. Our haven.

 Soon the keys will be in our hands. Can't wait for all of the paperwork to be over and start our new adventure.

I am a lucky gal. . . that is all there is to it

Shout out to the moms! Lots of hugs and kisses today!

 What have we been up to? Riding motorcycles on the table of course! We have learned where our belly buttons are. . . .

 We have been trying new hairstyles. . .

 And playing at the park of course.

 We have gained some artists, one who's work can be seen at the Sunrise Library!

We teach little brother's their colors by painting their nails. Daddy couldn't be prouder lol. We have done breathing treatments for babies with croup and spent lots of time together. Gotta love our Jones time.

Is it sad when the teacher at the school drop-off gate claps when my daughter gets out of the car. Yes, we were early (on time) today. Shame on me. Well, I have twenty three more days to get it right.

Take the time to be grateful

We did today. Inspired by the lesson given in church today, we reread this talk,
and this talk.Then we each wrote a list of 100 things we were grateful. I challenge you to take the time to be grateful. Because you're life is full of things, we just overlook them in the need of more.

Fussy kids in the car? Roll your windows down, throw your hands in the air, and ride the 'roller-coaster' home!

Here I am again, getting my thyroid ultrasound. Definitely not as fun as a baby ultrasound. Just me with my chin pointed towards the ceiling and some jelly on my throat. Yeah for body parts that decide to malfunction. I am getting old and falling apart ha.
