Busy but good

Things are busy here but we're doing well. I have started selling my digital scrapkits and gosh, made some nice money in the last 2 weeks or so (shocked the heck out of me). I don't think it will last but I'm not relying on it as an income but rather some play money so heck, keeping that going! We recently went to a Stake Festival celebrating the Pioneers who settled in San Bernardino so many years ago, not the most fun ever but the kids enjoyed it and I loved watching them have fun. (We were cold the first night and sweating like crazy on Saturday... go figure). Jill harassed me for not blogging lately so here I am. :)

By the way, for those wondering we do want another baby and have started trying to get pregnant. I am not telling you this so you can call me once a month to ask how it's going with that, we all know that my body is finicky and won't always do what it's supposed to. It's in the Lord's hands and we are patient... for now. (laughing). We really have our hands full anyways right?

The kids are good, Alex is doing well in Speech and we're working on enrolling him in Preschool. It scares me to death but I think it's extremely important before he's old enough for Kindergarten so we're trying. Problem is he's not potty trained yet (yes, 4 1/2 and no, it's not my fault although I blame myself a lot). He's just been through a lot, not sure why it's not there but when he does it finally it will be in his time and not from a lack of mommy trying.

Ariana is great too, although she's fighting me on the same issue (not potty trained). She's been really loving and a total bossy girl lately, wants to be the mommy and has started calling Alex her younger brother because he's gotten shorter than her, even though he is in fact older. He gets mad, they both fight over the "biggest sibling" spot. (sigh). They do get along great though, don't get me wrong. She's excited about wanting another baby (not sure where she got that idea) and wants a girl in mommy's tummy right now. Goober.

Camden is walking better every day, today he was practicing like crazy. He still crawls like a Spider monkey though and even can crawl sideways like that. It's the fastest thing I've ever seen, I've really got to post a video of it because it makes me giggle and I know he won't do it much longer.

Ray and I are great too, he's enjoying work this year and staying busy with that and running a club after school. Catherine is living here now and working hard to pay her bills, we're proud of her and the kids are really eating it up that she's here.

Well here are a few photos for you. :)

Here are my kids having an orange juice break... same thing every morning...

Camden my Spider monkey... yes... this is how he really crawls...

School is in... no wait... this is a fake school house
