Blah

So I guess Spring is NOT in the air. Snow and wind and crappy weather. Where are you spring and sunshine? It is time to show yourself. Bring on the birds,flowers and green grass, sun and warm days. I know this is normal for this area but everyone is ready.
I still need to get my taxes in and my Easter decorations out. Hope saw the eggs on Grandma Zoey's trees outside and came home and told me we needed to get our Christmas tree out to decorate with Easter eggs. So funny.
The kids are back in school after Spring Break. I was ready for them to go back. Tymber had missed 2 full weeks of school. 1 for being sick and then break. Hopefully she will stay healthy the rest of the school year. Autumn was off and about with Katie most of the week but that is normal for her. They are lost without each other.
I am in a slump. No motivation and depressed. Hopefully it will pass soon.
On great news Rich got the shower done downstairs. Very excited to have 3 full baths and it will be so nice the kids can shower down there now. For cheep tile the shower turned out very nice and is huge. They will be able to use it now. Yeah

Spring!

Spring is in the air. Yeah I am so excited. I love the warmer weather. Love the birds singing. Come on Spring we are ready for you!
Now if Tater bug just wasn't sick. I just can not get her better. She has missed 4 days of school. She had an ear infection a while back and just has not seemed to get over it. So off to the Dr. we went today. She has a sinus infection and her ear is red again. We got a Z pack and some cough medicine so hopefully she can sleep at night without busting a lung. Her poor abs are sore from coughing so much.
I have Sat-Wed off work so I am very excited about it. Spring Break is all next week. Autumn is going to Katie's tonight to watch Twilight her mom is getting it at midnight. She is also going to a Shrek party from 5:30 until whenever at her other friends. The teen in her is off and running.
Hopefully in a few days Tater will feel better so she can have some Spring fun also. I really want the weather to cooperate the kids needs to be outside after being cooped up all winter long.
Tymber also had parent/teacher conference last night. She is doing great. Her teacher Mrs Speas is on maternity leave and out the rest of the year so she has a sub the rest of the year. Tymber likes her a lot also. Tymber got a B in reading & spelling an A in Language arts (Went from a D last quarter to an A) great job there. She got a C in Math and Idaho History. I wonder what Autumns report card will be when it gets here.

trike-a-thon

Hope is 100% convinced she needs to ride in a trike-a-thon I have no clue how she has come up with this idea but she talks about it ALL the time. I have tried to convince her that I don't think there are any around here. She tells me she is sure there is one far away and her dad will drive her there. The child has a very active imagination. She loves to tell stories and if she thinks she has your undivided attention like you are making dinner or cleaning she corners you and goes on and on about it. It is pretty cute until she is into it about 20 min. and you just know it isn't going to stop any time soon. Lately it has been about how Autumn was little and Hope used to babysit her and we would hear over and over all of the fun things she did with Autumn while she had to babysit her because I was to busy to watch her. What a goof ball she is.
I also have to say she is in a overall stage she refuses to wear anything but overalls. Most of them are to small she walks around looking like she is waiting for a flood but it is pretty cute. She gets mad if there is no overalls to wear.

Phone call

Well it happened. Autumn got a call from a boy. Yep I knew it was coming. She has been talking about this boy Richard for weeks now. She says she only likes him as a friend but for a friend she sure talks a lot about him. It was weird answering the phone and having some male voice ask for her. She was pretty embarrassed when she got off the phone
