The Last 2 weeks!!

My days are flying by. Geez....I feel like I am missing out on a few hours a day! We have been having lots of fun though! School plays & field trips, skate parties, play offs, BBQ's with D&C Gf's, ROTC, birthdays, friend time, & lots of family time! I feel so blessed when I take a moment and look around. I have an amazing husband & 5 of the sweetest kids that love me soooo much!! I am able to go to their school functions because I get to stay home! I love it...and could not ask for a better life. I used to count down the days to go back to work. I thought "working" made you more important in people's eyes. But, I have the most important "job" ever! I am creating wonderful memories for my kids. I get to be there for them when they get off the bus. (And, they still get sooo excited to see me) I am available for them 100%. I AM important! The more time goes by...I realize that my husband's excitement for another baby is building excitement in me. Although, I do NOT want to be pregnant again & I only want a girl! I told him last night...if you promise me a girl, I will have another one right now. The brat actually says (seriously), I promise you Lisa!!! haha...not exactly what I meant! I go back and forth on this decision...because I want to have fun now...I want to plan family trips. That is a tad bit hard with a newborn. I pray alot to for an answer.
Brandon is now a 1oth grade student! He is earning extra credit by attending the ROTC program during the first week of his summer. He is there to train the other cadets and he raised our flag for the first time! I am honored to attend a BBQ with him tomorrow during a flag ceremony!

Madyson practiced all year during her Jazz elective for their performance yesterday. Oh my goodness...it was CUTE!!! She danced all over the stage and even did the splits! All the girls were dressed in big fluffy dresses because it was based off the movie Hairspray!

Dayton & Caydon are having the best time in school. They did a very important bug project for homework. Caydon did a grasshopper out of play dough and Dayton did a bee out of Styrofoam! They did such a great job! They still have their twin girlfriends that they "LOVE" so much! They put their pictures in frames on their night stands. They buy them weekly presents. It is sooo sweet!

Ryelon is completely potty trained. He wears superhero underwear. He is the typical little boy that announces to everyone (while grabbing his peepee), "Mommy, I need to go peepee!!!" It is kinda adorable!

I will do individual blogs with OF COURSE, pictures!!! I will try to get to that today. Besides picking up all the kids...I plan on relaxing today! =-)

Favorite quote for today: Life is like photography. When something looks bad, crop it out.
