So I noticed it has been all to long since I last posted. Sorry. Its been kinda busy here. We are going into soccer season which means my weekends are shot and so are half my nights. Thank goodness softball is done. So in the past few months here is what has been going on. We bought a big tent and attempted to go camping for the first time as a family with no extended family. It would have been awsome had Jackson actually slept. The little snot did not sleep AT ALL. We ended up going home a night early. We did get in some good fishing a small hike great times around the fire. We even had a suprise visit from my sister and brother. They were looking for some were to have a picnic with there families and saw Haylie going potty while we were fishing. They came and crashed our campsite and had dinner with us. Great times by all.
Hunter started soccer and we have practice all the time. His coach is great. Marc and I are team managers. Its been ok. A little hectic at times but ok. He has played 2 practice games against other teams. The first one they lost the second they won. They also just had the Murray Max tournament. They had games thursday (won), Friday (won), saturday morning (lost but made it to the finals), and saturday afternoon (lost and came in second woohoo). The last two games were against a premier team. That means a team that is way higher up then we are. They had a tough morning game but that afternoon game they held there own and did awsome.
The twins turned 9 yesterday. Yes 9. How the hell did that happen? I remember getting them when they were 3. Now they are 9. It makes me feel so old. They had an ok party. It was smashed between soccer games. We had a couple friends over and alot of family. The twins and Hunters grandparents came up from New Mexico and were here from friday to today. Love them. They are such great people. The twins got alot of new cloths, and of course there phone books. My parents will be taking them over night in a couple weekends and taking them to a splash park as there present. Its something they do with all there grandkids instead of presents. They take them out and have special one on one time with them.
Haylie is Haylie. She has started school (as has Hunter). There teacher is a very young (22) year old who seems very good. So far the kids love her. They are already off track (can I cry lol). Haylie wants to do choir again this year. I think she is giving up on the violin. She just wasnt into it. She has her best friend Tresure who if they are sepereated more then 2 days they die (almost literally its kinda funny to see the withdrawls).
Zander is growing fast. I cant believe my baby is 20 months old already. He is almost 2. He loves being outside and would live out there if I let him. Its a great fun time getting him on the house. He loves to play with his big brothers and sister. One of his favorite things to do is wait until one of them sits down on the couch then he pounces on them. Such a little stink pot lol. He doesnt want to sit in a high chair anymore. He has to have no tray and sit in the high chair up to the counter with the big kids. He has also outgrown his crib. He had been climbing out of it. Instead of fearing an injury we took the crib down and he is now in a twin bed with a rail. He looks so tiny in it. Serouse were is my baby lol.
Marc is plugging along at work. He is finally done (for now) with softball. He would have loved to play another season but couldnt find a team. He hates work (who doesnt). He is thinking about going back to school. He would love to do either occupational or physical therapy. It would be a long road but well worth it in the end.
I have been working on losing my baby fat. Not happening so far. I workout every morning doing a crazy workout series called Insanity. I have so far not lost any weight or inches. Kinda getting discouraged but hopefully with my new coach I can start to see some results. I have got to get my diet under control. I think that is my biggest problem. I do great for a few days then I fall. I try to eat well but its hard. My problem is I skip meals then eat big lunch and dinners but nothing else all day.
Well I am tired of typing so I am going to end it here. This week is going to be busy as we have soccer practice and we are going camping friday.
