This is the ongoing saga of our lives. The good, the bad, and the funny. Join us as we attempt to live simply in a complicated world. I'm not a woman of secrets, but I am often an open book for all to read (however, i may have glued a few pages together over the years). My hope is that in all the ridiculous antics and mundane memories you will find a family full of joy. A joy not based on how life is going, but a joy based on the knowing and loving of the One who created life. Enjoy!

Sweet Success!
Okay, in this case it may be stinking success, but success all the same. Declan is potty trained!! We haven't used pull ups in over two weeks. I'm really proud of him. For all of you mom's looking forward to that stage....I wish I could tell you some trick I used, but the fact is its all on Declan. I did the same thing I did with Edana and Aidan. Everytime, I got different results. Edana took a few months, Aidan took about a year, and Declan took a couple of weeks. I have one baby in diapers now and no more on the way!!!! I can't begin to tell you how wonderful that is.
I have no pictures for this blog, but things are going well! Rileigh Cait is growing like crazy! She has two teeth now, and can roll just about anywhere that she wants. Edana is playing fall t-ball. She is definitely a newbie! The coach is great! He just calmly goes over how she needs to do things until she gets it. She might get pretty good in time, with some practice. Edana is still loving school. Poor Aidan still doesn't have much to do. He is making a few friends and he follows Edana to her friends. Aidan was trying to get out of going to school for about a week there, but he seems better now. They are both really picking up the accent. Cracks me up!
Its homecoming week this week, so the town is buzzing! Jeff somehow managed to get elected m.c. I guess they figured he should do it since he is the speech teacher. We have a parade Friday and they have a special ceremony then as well as that night at the football game. They announce the queen the day they announce who all is in it, so its not a suprise the night of the game. That seems a little anit-climatic to me.
Well, I guess that is about all. Oh me, I'm not doing much. Cleaning house, chasing kids, cooking dinner.... I do sneak across the street and hang out with my new friend when I can, and of course I always have running. As a matter of fact, I might go do that right now. Have a good day!!

YAY! Good job! Potty training is the hardest part of parenting (well so far!) and I have another one about to be there! Heopfully it will be easier with one already trained. We'll see....
Great to see you back on the blog. I've checked it everyday except the weekend you were in Fayetteville. I thought you would be to busy to blog then. The pictures of the kids were really good. I can't believe how they are growing. Shawna told me Brayden told Dec to come on. I guess he missed him.
