wow it has been a week since i have written on here.

Tuesday... I enrolled lane in preschool for next year. we are going to see how he does. i didn't want to but chad said what would it hurt - give him a chance. this is true so I enrolled him. chad watched all three boys while i went down there. it took about 1 and half hours to get it done. i met calley up there and we stood in line together. it was nice to visit with her and not to have to stand there by myself. : ) I came home and had to go back up there for sorority for an hour. chad had the afternoon off because he had to get up at 3 a.m. and work until 10:30 a.m. He took a nap and then took over the boys.

thursday... was mdo and it was windy!! i got my braces tightened! the soreness began : ( april 1st was 1 year since i got my braces on. : ) yeah!!! - about 10 more months! I dropped jude off at heidis while i went to my appointment (first time to leave him somewhere). i was nervous that he was going to be fussy. when i got there he was konked out. so i went and got cade and took him to mdo. when i got back to heidis jude was still konked out. he finally woke up and i came home and fed him. then i got to eat. i didn't get much done because it was time to go get the boys. calley had a pampered chef party that evening. it was nice to get out even though i took jude. calley and keidi took turns holding him. i love pampered chef!!! i'm having a party and hope people come.

Jude also turned 2 months old!! he is getting so big.

Friday...boys out of school, driving me crazy. they were so energetic! I wanted to sleep in but that didn't workout too well because the older boys kept fighting. oh well. we made carrot cake cupcakes and they got to decorate them, i made breakfast burritos to put in the freezer and some in the fridge - (for easy breakfast). heidi, bryson, and rylee came over for a little bit. they hadn't been over her in a while. i had a freak attack later on about the clutter and all boys not picking up there stuff!! they just expect me to do it and i can't keep up! i had an idea for supper but couldn't find the recipe so chad said lets go out to eat. fine with me as long as the boys were going to be good. i was in a funk before we went but got in a good mood. we had a nice dinner, food was good, boys were good. we decided to go by grandpa and gigi's house. it has been awhile since i have seen them. it was a great visit. i prob. talked glennas head off! sorry glenna. : ) we stayed until 10!! sorry again for staying so long.

Saturday...what a night. jude actually let me sleep for 3 hours at a time!!! holy cow!! he has been eating pretty fast too. i actually have time to do things right now. i hope he keeps it up. chad left this morning to go antler hunting. the rest of us slept in -very nice. i got up and got ready for the day. the nazarene church had an easter egg hunt so the boys and i got ready and went to that. i thought we were going to be late. we made it and played some games inside. we found heidi and bryson and hung out with them. the boys had fun. it was cold outside and the hunt didn't last very long - which was good. after the hunt we left, grabbed mcD's and came home. i worked on pictures (orders and collages). Chad got home. he got bored and took a nap, the boys played in the rain, and i fed jude and did pictures. I made supper - which was really good and cleaned up the kitchen. The boys colored eggs. they had soooooo much fun. lane talked non stop!! there were lots of oooohhhhss and aaahhhhsssss. the boys had fun playing with all the colors. they of course showed me everytime they pulled out and expected a "cool" "pretty" "awesome" "ooohh" or "aaahh" : ) i did take pictures just don't feel like downloading them. the boys got ready for bed and chad left (card night). lane went to sleep easy but cade stayed up for a little bit. he wasn't ready for bed. he kept saying he was afraid that there was going to be monsters in his dream. we called uncle lee to put some happy thoughts in his head but he didn't answer so we called aunt sally. you could tell he felt better. he still stayed up for a little bit. i made pacifier attachers and started some laundry. cade finally went to be so i got out easter bunny stuff. oh cade left a carrot cake cupcake and a glass of milk for the easter bunny - his idea. i got the eggs filled and am ready for jude to wake up so i can feed him and go to bed (it has been almost 3 hours since i put him down).

i better check on jude and switch out laundry.

we are taking a family trip next week. just for us! we are so excited.
