hmmmm, Trying to remember where I left off. Chad made it home safe. He was broke (from losing all his money) but he was safe and had a great time. We went over to Rick and Glenna's on Sunday. It was a nice visit. Cade was cranky for most of it, but maybe he should take his nap during the afternoon. : ) I decided to call them up and ask if they wanted to get together since it has been awhile. Glenna made peach ice cream (chad and rick cranked it), and it turned out really good.

Monday... I did the usual morning routine, went to the store, got boys, fixed lunched, took naps, went for a walk - boys rode their bikes, went to the park, came home fixed supper, cleaned up, took a shower, and laid down with the boys (watched a movie). Cade was asleep by 8 and Lane by 8:30, oh and i was down by 9!! Chad stayed up and watched the football game so i just laid beside him until it was over. oh when i was eating supper a wire on my braces got loose!! i could feel my teeth moving.

Tuesday... I got up a fixed a good breakfast. man was my mouth hurting and that gave me a killer headache. Cade didn't wake up until 7:30!! He was tired! Went to school and Heidi and I went for a walk. We are going to try and do it M-Th. It felt good to walk. I went and got the boys, came home, fixed lunch, cleaned up, layed down with lane for a little while, took a shower, been trying to finish the wedding dvd!! (man that is a pain!) We went to different furniture stores to look for a computer armoire (maybe we can do that in okc) and then went to walmart to get a few things. I made chicken spaghetti for supper (so it took me all day to do, but it is worth it), salad and rolls. cleaned up, put boys in the tub, worked on dvd still. My mouth is still in lots of pain and tylenol isn't doing much. I have an appt. on thursday and i can't wait. Except that the pain in going to double since my wire came loose. : ( I'm still working on the dvd.

Exciting things going on around here:

Cade has been learning letter sounds at school. They call it the animal alphabet and it is easier for kids to read faster because when they see the letter they know the sound. Anyway, they do a different letter every week (but of course goes over all of them everyday). Cade is really into it and is finding them in books. He does a really good job! I'm so proud of him. He is even recognizing letters they haven't gotten to in their lesson. He is just soaking stuff up and school!

Lane is also doing very well. They do little worksheets at school. They don't put a lot of time into it but the last two days they have talked about under and over. We worked hard on this last night - he was wanting to say up and down. Today he had it down. Some of the other things are on and off, in and out. They are fairly simple but I'm still proud of him. And he is wanting to be apart of cade's letters. : )

I go to a check up on Thursday. Just a regular baby checkup. I'm always excited to hear the heartbeat. I'm anxious for the ultrasound (next month). Ready to just let all "hope" of having a girl go away for everyone. I hear it all the time. I'm confident we are having a boy and hate to burst people's hope but I'm ready for everyone to get excited about this little boy. He isn't just another boy, he is a new boy and I'm excited!! (sorry on my soap box) I can't wait to hear the heartbeat. I don't feel him much which makes me worry a little.

I get my braces tightened on Thursday!! A step closer to perfect teeth. Heidi told me my teeth looks a lot straighter! WAHOOO!! I haven't paid that much attention but they have. : )

I'm going to check on this dvd and see if it is time to actually get this thing burned!!!!
