Alex the Great

As you can see, Alex the kitten is smitten with Georgia and Jude. He sleeps with them most nights. The kids have been sick and one night he slept with them all nighting switching 4 times! Right now he's curled in a ball on top of my desk. He's such a sweetie! I'm so glad we got a people cat.

He also "made nice" with cousin Daisy. There was some hissing involved but also some nose touching, so I'd say it went well.

Girls' Night Out!

I love this picture of me and my girlfriends, even though Rachel isn't in it (she lives in Philadelphia now)and Cathy is leaving in less than a week! Cathy, Kenneth, Theo and Josie are moving up to Winona Lake, IN to finish college. Grace College is my alma mater. Go Lancers! Ha ha ha....

We have been meeting for a long time, like going on 10 years. It's always social and involving food, but we try to do a Bible study, keep each other accountable and pray for each other. They're the best friends I have!

We took Cathy out to Stoney River Steak House last Monday for a last hurrah. It was yuuuummmmyy!!

We are: Kim, me, Cathy, Bethany, Tammy and Karin.

I should also note that most of us met through our other friend Tammy, who lives in Dallas now. We miss her too!

The kids have been waking up soooo early, like 5:30 or 6 am. They finally fell back asleep on the couch this morning...til 8:30. Yea!!!!

Here are some cute pictures of Jude on Theo's tractor today. We were over there most of the day hanging out and packing a little bit.

On another note, we found out that our kitty Savannah is a boy! We have renamed him Alex and we're getting use to using the male pronouns!

Turns out he had an undescended testicle. Who knew?! He is otherwise healthy and still "fixed"

How Cute Is This??!

This is what I found tonight when I went in to kiss the kids goodnight...

That is WAY cuter than a new kitten!

Our new kitten is so sweet. She lets the kids carry her around and play with her. She talks all the time and she loves to snuggle and sleep with us. So far, my allergies are fine. I've taken a few Claritin and God must know we want to keep Savannah!

We have a new baby...

So I got an early Mother's Day gift. This sweet little kitten from Happy Tales at the Factory in Franklin. The kids and Steve picked her out and she is so adorable. Very affectionate and snuggly. Georgia named her Savannah, after her favorite jet plane. She's 12 weeks old and fully potty trained!

The kids had their first summer swim! They loved it, but were frozen even after I added hot water to the pool.

The kids have been great about entertaining themselves since I've been working tons more hours from my at home job (pretty much 40 each week). They had so much fun stringing beeds the other day and I was impressed with their manual dexterity!

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet....

Here are Jude and Georgia reading their little New Testaments. Can't have enough pictures of that!
