I’m to scatter brained to sit and write something meaningful so I am loading my pictures and if any comments make it on the page then GREAT…

I love these smiles. Ray is such a tease lately. Today he took Rose’s lip gloss at least 3 different times and runs and runs until she catches him and pries it out of his hand. Rose is under the sleeping bag in this one and I am sure Ray is giggling about that.

We had the opportunity to camp for Labor day but this pregnant mom was too tired to attempt it. Our kids were disappointed but they were also understanding. We still got to play with lots of cousins and we spent Sunday evening at the campground. I didn’t take any pictures but we had a good time. I missed camping but today I am not missing the camping clean up.

Matching boys! They are tired and sweaty after their 8 minute walk home.

We spent Labor Day with the Nettesheim’s. Lots of food and visiting. I love hanging out with family and letting the kids loose with their cousins. It was Great. That evening I spent some time with my sister Shannon who came down from Idaho. It’s fun to have one on one time – Shannon showed me the best foods at Taco Time since she has worked there for over 4 years now and I had never been until last night! And I made her push my 500 lb shopping cart as I grabbed dog food and detergent and diapers and snacks and anything that I might not want to run out of right when this little baby decides to be born. I had a checkup at the Dr Office today and there is nothing to report… it’s could be any day or it could be a week or more… I’m trying to let life go on …

Ray Tom enjoying Zucchini Bread at the Nettesheim Brunch – yummy.

Cute kids on Rosie’s new quilt.

Rose loves to color right now. And she loves to tell me all the things that the new baby will need. Today I had to eat the last oreo because she wanted the new baby to have it – OK. And she really needs to go to McDonald’s to show the new baby the slides. Funny Girl.

And today I took the 2 rascals to the park after taking Cali to Preschool. I didn’t want to BUT I’m glad I did. They had a blast. They were sweaty but they didn’t care. They played in the drinking fountain and threw wood chips and teased each other BUT there was no crying and no one else was there so they couldn’t disturb anyone or be shied away from the playground. I sat in the shade in the grass and dreamed about having our own yard to play in. And now I need to be done cause I should have dinner cooking and I don’t. Taco Tuesday?
