whats happening with us?

We have a had our 'typical' busy life the last few weeks. Real estate has picked up for me, which is WONDERFUL!! Jermey has also been very busy, but is the best at helping me around the house and freeing me up for my crazy work schedule.
It feels like we just got done with cheerleading and now here we go again....Riley is trying out for high school cheerleading this week. Although it is very time consuming and stressful on our family she is wonderful at it and absolutely loves it. So we put on our happy faces and just grin and bear it!
Ella is going to stay with Grandma Missy and Papa Charlie next week, and she is very excited to sing and cook and beat grandpa at UNO.. She told me "I am going to meet some new kids in the neighborhood and make friends". Our little social butterfly.. Drew is great, just being Drew..he is a mini Jermey. Just goes with the flow, laid back.
Seth is currently cutting 4 top teeth at the same time and trying to walk. He is now 10 months old and is getting really brave and taking steps on his own.

The other big news is we are going to Africa in July!!! We have been thinking and praying about if for several months and we finally took the leap and booked the trip. We will be going to Swaziland Africa and working at an orphange for 11 days. I will post more on this soon!!

Waiting for Grandma

Two days a week my mom comes to babysit the kids. Every time I will open the door so the kids can watch for grandma. As soon as Drew hears the door open, he starts saying "papa, papa". I"m pretty sure he is meaning to say granmda, it just comes out as papa??

Yesterday they pulled up their bean bags and a couple Dora books to pass the time. Look how cute just sitting their anxiously waiting for grandma to pull up. As soon as they see her car they usually run to hide from her. And then Ella will yell "come find me"... so cute!!

Thanks grandma for babysitting the kiddos!!

Slim pickin'

I have been super busy with real estate the last week (PTL) and the weather is just gorgeous outside. As you can tell the blogging is getting slimmed down. I haven't had as much time lately to play around on the computer and blog.

Our family is a outside family. We have the best neighborhood in the world. Lot's of kids and our great friends, so we don't see the indoors other to use the bathroom, shower and sleep!!

I will be posting soon with lots of pictures and new's about our upcoming summer trip!!!

Big Weekend

We celebrated Drew's 2nd birthday with a 'Cars' themed birthday. He got lots of fun boy toys. Slowly but surely we are filling up our house with more cars and trucks. Soon he won't have to play with dresses and Barbies anymore...lol

I think Drew looks just like his daddy in this picture.

The other big deal this weekend is Seth took his first steps!! He can balance really good on his own, then on Saturday he took about 4 steps all by himself.

It's pretty funny if he thinks he is going to fall he will close his eyes. But then he gets really excited when he figures out we are going to catch him!
