Aug update

Well despite the fact I keep saying I will do better at blogging I don't. LOL I really enjoy blogging it is like a way to get my world into words. I don't know what has kept me away, but sometimes I think about blogging and just never seem to find the words or time.
July was H's 8th birthday, hard to believe it has been 8 years since she was brought into our lives, you never know how much you can truly love someone until you have kids. It gives love a whole new meaning. I feel this everyday when I see my kids. Sure like any mom I get frustrated, but it never changes the love I have for them. For H's birthday we went to Great Wolf Lodge for the weekend. We even had friends come up for the day on Saturday to share her day with us! We are truly blessed to have made these special friends here. They all had a great time and it was nice to get away for the weekend with the whole family, we haven't done that in a long time!
H is growing up so fast for her birthday she asked for a new phone, so that is what she got for her birthday, and she was so happy! I think she truly had a great birthday! I am so proud to be her mom. In a couple of weeks she will be starting the third grade. Again how did that happen? How do I have a third grader already? L will be in her last year of pre-school and G will start pre-school this year. Which means for the first time in eight years I will have a kids free day. I wont know what to do with my self. Two kids free days a week. I am thinking of taking some photography classes. And I may work on those days as well, but not all of them. LOL
G will turn 3 this month, we will be going to my moms for his birthday and he is so very excited to go to Grandmas. He asks everyday if we are going to Grandmas today. It is cute. His allergies seem to be doing well, we have taken him off of his medicine and so far so good. He still cannot have eggs or peanuts but as long as we stay away from them he does well. We are working on potty training and I hope to have that done before school starts but we aren't doing well with it, he loves to wear his Thomas underwear, but he continues to pee and poop in them, or he takes them off and pees in the floor. How do I get that to stop? Boys are so different. And yet he is so loving to me, I have a hard time staying mad at him. Hubby says I am soft on him, but I have a hard time looking at him and getting mad. LOL
L is still having curious George moments, and they are becoming harder to control, now she intentionally waits until she knows you wont see her do the things and then does them. She also has the attention span of a fly. She can not concentrate on things for more then a few seconds, and it makes it hard for me to work with her on things like the letters and numbers. Although she loves to play on the computer and will do it for it long periods of time. Maybe the curious George incidents are to get attention, I am not sure but we must work these issues out.
I am doing well most days, I have made a great friend her that I feel I can count on. She is great and she is alot like me which makes us great friends. LOL I am blessed to have her. I have also made some friends at work and we have a great time together.
Step-son has been at his moms and as far as I know is coming back tomorrow. But we shall see if his mom changes her mind or not. She was originally going to bring him this weekend and didn't so we shall see. The kids are ready for him to come back and I think he is ready to come back as well.
Well that is my update for now. I will post new pictures this week. Till next time remember to hug and kiss your family and tell them you love them, today is gone and tomorrow may never come.....................
