Here we are

Saturday morning and I thought I'd sleep in. LMAO I really must stop thinking. It is 7:15 a.m. Daddy and Mister left with some friends, Brian and Tristan, to go to the Pee Wee races. Max was pretty darned excited cuz Tristan was going. Had on his Mater hat and his water bottle on a string. He was good to go. Of course that was 1 hour after he got up which means there was a lot of whining at Daddy for different items. Laying in bed wide awake, just waiting for them to leave so I could lay in silence and feel the cool sheets. NOT! Missa started "Daddy Daddy"

So much for sleeping in, but Mister was happy, I got the laundry started, coffee on and here I am blogging before I go up to get my Missa. We are off to the grocery.

Later this afternoon, after naps, we are going to go see the new Disney movie, Wall-E http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/walle/ I'm looking forward to it. Don't know how long we will make it in the movie, but we are going to try. ;o)

Update on Missa's tooth: It's all fine! Didn't damage the nerve or push up into the adult tooth. They did xrays. She was awesome as usual. Dr. said they won't grind it down it could do more damage that way. That with her normal eating, it will wear down. So let's all just pray that her next adventure isn't anything worse than the dislocated toe or the broken tooth.

Have a great weekend everyone,
Love

Can you hear me now?

I often wonder what it felt like to my nephews who grew up with a brother who has Downs. As an adult, we sometimes don't put ourselves in their shoes because we are too busy with the daily tasks. Now that I have two on the spectrum and a "normal" little girl to follow up my trio, I try really hard to give them all their "special" time. I've said it from the beginning. . . Missa will be talking for Mister and doing Bobo's homework.

Nothing but A Lot

Doesn't seem to be anything going on, but there's still so much happening.

"Oreng Juce Oreng Juce" that seems to be all I'm hearing today. Oh and lets not forget the screaming "mine mine mine".

Missa has a dentist appointment this morning to see about her chipped (broken) front tooth. Jeff is going to stay with Mister who is 6 days into the potty training. He's doing good. Still only 1 poo poo potty tho. The rest have been accidents. ;o(

Husband is exhausted from getting up at 3:30 a.m. to be to work by 5. He says another 1.5 months. EEK! Since I've lost the weight and I'm eating right, I seem to have much more energy which causes a problem when Husband wants to go to sleep at 8:30. Kids go down between 8 and 8:30. Poor Jeff, he's a night owl and can't figure out why we want to go to bed at 8:30. lol

Tomorrow Husband is going to take Mister to the Pee-Wee off road races. Dirt bikes and quads. I'm sure they'll have a great time. I was thinking about going until Missa started sleeping in til 7:30. I think I'll take advantage of that time to stay in bed. ;o)

Well that probably about it besides our basic Chaos. Getting excited about my trip to Cleveland, thinking about San Diego, still have to get shirts for the kids (for the reunion).

One last thing: This weekend is a big weekend for some very close family members. My thoughts, prayers and love are with you all this weekend. Wish I could be with you guys. See you all soon. Love Gin
