Ok I am a month (almost) behind again....

I am almost a month behind, again I know. I have to say things are really not stressful, just busy. Vin and I are busy getting the rest of our things transferred over to Indiana from Mass. Cars, insurance, doctors, dentist etc. You can't even imagine the paper work involved to get a license and registration here! Wow!

I am happy to say we are almost done with all of it. Just in time to enjoy the summer on the lake. The kids are doing awesome, Gina is really coming into her own now, she is getting smarter by the minute and with that comes its own challenges. She always has a story to tell me every night when I come home and always wants to help fold the laundry. My big boy Joey is growing as well, not only his he big for his age ( size 3T )he is talking up a storm and making sentences - its amazing how quickly he put it all together. The kids actually play together now more and play nice more often now, than just fighting over toys. (Thank goodness!)

I can honestly say everyone is settling in nicely and we all like the area we picked. Vin told me the other day at first he wasn't sure because of how far away everything "seemed" to be. But, now that he has the hang of it (mind you the store is only 10 minutes away!!) it has grown on him. He is very excited to start fishing soon like a kid on Christmas morning. I can hear him giggling (yes, giggling) in the garage as he works on his fishing rods - getting them ready for the big "splash down". I love to see him so happy. Its been along time and a long road.
Have a fabulous Thursday!

Easter Humor

OK I can't resist - These make me laugh every time!

Hope they make you laugh too!




Spring Shoe Shopping

Tis the season for new shoes, I love this time of year it marks the start of spring/summer when I get to take the kids out for new shoes. Last weekend we hit the shoe store in Ft Wayne looking for new sneakers and sandals for them. My kids have big feet! Gina is wearing an 8 1/2 wide and Joey is wearing a 7 1/2 wide!

Here is some pictures of Gina riding the horse in the shoe store. (Joey didn't want to - I think he was frighten of it). There a little blurry it was my cell phone and the horse was moving.








Joey the "Foil"

Another sign that Gina is smart as a whip and growing up quickly - probably more quickly than I would like.

The other morning Gina ask Vin if she could have pancakes for breakfast and Vin said, "No, honey not today we have a lot to do this morning so we are going to have cereal." She leaves the kitchen disgruntled at the thought of no pancakes, but goes on her way. About a minute later Joey comes in the kitchen and says "Pancakes, Pancakes" - Ah my Gina has figured out already how to make her brother a partner in "crime". Oh, I can hardly wait to see what she comes up with next and of course Joey will gladly follow along just happy to "play" with Gina.

I think I am in trouble here....

Ok I am behind again on the blog

Yes, I know I have been hearing it from everyone. "Update the blog". What can I say life has been moving at a crazy rate of speed lately and time just seems to drift away. I have a couple of updates for you and some story's I think you will enjoy.
