What is keeping me so busy I do not have time to update my blog

Wow... I am busy! Justin has "praise the LORD" switched shifts back to the 5 o'clock start time. It is really nice but my computer time is more limited now. But it is a much nicer shift for our family! Thank you everyone who was praying for the change for us!

Add to that... my wonderful husband decided to get us a pool! Which is awesome but MAN does it take up our time and energy! I have two little non-swimmers in floaties who want to be in from 6 am until bedtime but only stay in for half and hour to an hour. Get out and want in later. So 3 or 4 times a day I am in the pool with them. Sure I could say no but they really love it. And I like it too. Just wish they STAYED in longer. Ok, Alyssa would. Tristan is who gets tired of it. But being so young, everyone is in or out.

So that leaves housework. Do not want to do it in the afternoon when Justin is up because that is family time for a short while he is with us. So I am stuck with housework at night. My normal computer time!

We also had a really nice weekend. We went berry picking together. Then to the drive-in to see two movies. Wall-E and Kung Fu Panda. We like them both! I think Tristan likes Kung Fu Panda better as he slept both times we have seen Wall-E now. But he was all about the panda. A Great site to check out movies we like is Christian Spotlight on Entertainment If you are ever wondering about a movie and is it a good one to see, this is the site for you to check out! We do not watch anything without checking here first.

Tonight my uncle, aunt and cousins came over. We had a nice night of swimming, McDonalds (SORRY MOM! THE KIDS PICKED - shhh we are supposed to be boycotting it I hear) and bowling.

Here is Tristan with my cousin Charlie and my uncle Joe.

Bowling

So that is what has kept me super busy lately. We had clinic last Friday. Here are three pics from clinic.

First one is the kids in the waiting room. Notice Tristan's arm? He always covers his port with his arm like that from the moment I put his numbing cream on in the evening until the next day!

Here is mom with Tristan. She had to come this week with me since my mil could not get off work this week.

And last, here is a picture of Tristan loopy after his spinal tap.

Sorry so long! I will try to keep up better with smaller posts and more of them if I can! Try is the key word :)

LOL at being in and out of the pool all day. I guess the novelty will wear off after awhile, and then they'll be willing to go in for one longer swim. That's what happened here. Tristan and Alyssa are both so cute!!! I kept thinking Tristan looks a lot like my friend's little boy who is not much older.

Blessings,
Kym
