Joyful Chaos

Nov. 5, 2007

Hard day

Our day started first with Jayson and Dalton being wide awake at 6 am due to the time change.  Then at 7 Allyson came into my room to tell me the bird we were bird sitting was dead    We have no idea what happened, and have been over all of the possible causes several times.  It is just so sad and even harder when it was someone elses pet you were responsible for.

I then went downstairs to start some laundry and ironically there was a wild bird that had somehow gotten inside and was flying around our family room!  We managed to get this bird relocated back outside.

Phoenix (grandson) came for the day, as has become the routine several days a week while his parents work.  It has been fun having a little baby around, we will see how fun it is when our own baby is here in a few more weeks!

I have been a bit under the weather today, not sure if it is the stress of the day, the pregnancy, a bug, or maybe a combination of all of the above.  Here's hoping I feel better tomorrow and can get some more accomplished than today.

I think I have posted before that we are in the proccess of redoing some rooms and rearranging to make room for the new baby.  Currently Patricks old room is completely emptied, carpet and tack strips ripped out, and the walls almost completely primed.  Brad is hoping to have the room painted and the floor installed by the end of the week so we can move my sewing room/ office into it this weekend.  Then the next project will be the current sewing room, which will become Landon and the new babies bedroom.  Exciting stuff happening around here!

I haven't had the opportunity to read your site lately. I hope your pregnancy is going well. I have just 7 weeks left. I pray your days have not been quite so crazy since this post.

I enjoyed reading your blog. We don't have any babies on the way, but we have been changing rooms around and trying to redecorate as we go. I would love to see some pics when the rooms are done.

The bird probably died from stress, birds are very tempermental that way. He (or she) was in a new environment, different from what he was used to, with people he didn't know, for some birds thats all it takes! This is especially true of parakeets and finches.

About Me

Welcome, glad you stopped by! Here you will get a glimpse into the day to day life of our family, as we happily homeschool in Delaware. We currently have 2 children grown and gone, one married and one in college, 4 more at home, and 1 on the way. Things are often hectic and a little bit crazy, but usually fun and maybe a bit interesting.
