Finally, i can tell!!!!!!!!!!!

It has almost killed me but i was sworn to silence until today. I was finally told that i could say "I'm gonna be an aunt!" The shirt says it all but i know that everyone is wondering who's having the baby! And i know Caris and Brandon are screaming - "Not US!" and Kelly and Casey are also screaming "Not US!" So, the only ones left are Andy and Lacy! YES! So, Andy and Lacy came over about 4 weeks ago and wondered if the boys were still awake and said they had bought them a present. Well, when they arrived they quietly got the boys in the next room while we were all talking and then they ran in with the shirts on! It was exciting. They are excited. Lacy and Andy wanted to wait until 10 weeks or so to tell anyone. And you know me, being sworn to silence was KILLING me! So, finally i can shout that Chris and i are going to be Aunt Audrea and Uncle Chris!

Oh and I will always have GUM!!!!!!!!! (excerpt from Monica on Friends)

First day of Preschool

A few weeks ago we began preschool. It went really well! They boys were so excited the night before that they layed in their beds awake until 10:30!!!!!!!!!!!! Then, they both woke up really early. I was really hoping that didn't happen every morning. And thankfully it hasn't. They are in Ms. Angelia's room and they love it. They didn't even tell me goodbye the first morning. They ran in and started talking to the other boys and girls like they had known them forever! And thankfully, i'm glad they do that. But, it also made me a little sad that they didn't worry or even ask where i was. Now Logan on the other hand, really loves his mommy! He is pictured here with the boys (showing off his dinosaur skills). We all knew it was going to be hard and he was going to cry. But, he only cried a little while. The teacher grabbed Logan and i grabbed Starla. LOL! Just kidding, it had to be hard to leave a crying child that you have rarely left since his birth. But, after a few days, he was telling her goodbye and running to be with the other kids. Starla seemed fine too! And she's very glad to have some alone time!

He was born on May 15th and the boys on May 17th. It's very funny to see these photos of the boys with Logan. She and i were pregnant together from beginning to end. Talking daily, and i mean TALKING, and TALKING, and TALKING! We know alot about each other. Things we'll never tell others - right Starla? LOL! Like what green apples are great for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And how appalled my mother was to find out that Craig was in the room when Kendra did the sonar to find out the sex of the babies!!!!!!!!!! Oh how funny that was! (inside joke) But, to see these three playing and becoming friends is really cool! Maybe they'll be as good of friends as she and I are!

Sorry about the shotty photos. It was very bright and i was having a bad photo day i guess. Plus, i'm too lazy today to edit them any.

I know my header photo is gone...

Blogger merged with Google. So, Google users were able to switch over to the Beta version for Blogger. So, i did. And for most everything - it's much easier to use! Meaning i don't have to write the custom html to make mine look different that other peoples. Yeah! Except for one thing, i cannot (as of yet) do custom html for the header section- so therefore my header is gone. But, Google said it's being fixed. So, hold on and i'll get that back up soon! And maybe, just maybe it will be a different photo this time! We'll see!!!!!!!

(#%^#@$(^&$%^*%&

That was about the house we are building. Now, i know that i am blessed to be building a house and i am very, very thankful! But, wow, it is amazing that anyone gets a house built these days! If it isn't one thing, it's another..... I posted a photo of what our house looked like 6 weeks ago. And the only difference in it now is that it has shingles on it and a few of the windows are in. Did you notice i said a few windows? Well, that is the problem! For some reason, we cannot seem to get all our windows in this house! They were ordered 6 weeks ago, yes i said 6 weeks - FOR WINDOWS!!!!!!!!!! So, when you don't have window in - you cannot brick, and when you cannot brick - you cannot sheetrock! UGH!!!!!!!!!!! Now, i'm just the one that is listening to all of this happening, because my WONDERFUL husband is LIVING it! He has really kept his cool too! Very Jesus like! And i'm not sure I would have done that. Although, he has taught me some things through watching him in these situations. He has showed me how proud i am of him and that I CAN be JESUS like even when i want to blow my top! So, all in all - if this is all that goes wrong, we are going to be ok. But, i really want to move into this house by the end of October!!!!!!!!! Please Lord!!!!!!!!!! Ok, thanks for listening guys!

He loves to look at himself.......

He can't help it, look at him - he's just too cute! Yes, he loves to look at himself. I shot this photo of him when he grabbed my sister's camera the other night. He proceeded to take everyone's photo after that. We had to stop him after that because he sort of just thought the camera was his at that point. And then the other night, Chris told me that my mom caught him with another camera. He had went to tee tee by himself and when she found him, he was WITH CAMERA!!!!! There's no telling how long he had the camera and where he took it!. So, i think i have hooked one and i'm pulling him in - he's going to love this joy i call "PHOTOGRAPHY!"

Sunday School Lake Party Part 2

Sunday School Lake Party

We had a great time at the lake a few weeks ago. Although there were only 4 couples that were able to come, we still had a good time. Adam & Charlene Ritch, Me & Chris, Adam & Crystal Russell and Craig & Starla Fowler. We watched a movie and played on the lake. In addition to EATING GOOD! Here are some photos i took of us on the lake playing. I believe that Craig drove the boat when Chris rode the tube - and you'll see why i told you that when you see the photos...

Also, did you know that there have been reports from divers that the Catfish by the dam are as big as "doodlebugs"? I promise that i have been told that!

And Charlene is ALOT years younger than ALL of us!!! Inside Joke!!!!!

Hopefully the whole class can get together this fall to watch a game on the Plasma. Well, the guys are really into that one anyway!!!!!!! Us girls can talk and lay out by the lake and pool!
