Quck Update

Anyone still here? Sorry I've been away. With the two hurricanes, there is lots of work to catch up on. School is much better this year, but still lots of new teacher requirements I have to fulfill.

K has been acting better in school, but acting worse for us at home. At least we don't get called by the school as much.

J just made 2 a couple weeks ago. No more babies here. I'm having serious baby fever.

Smiley started tickling me back when I tickle him lately. It's so adorable. He's at the stage now he's incredibly spoiled to mommy. I love it!

I'll try to check back again soon.

Sometimes He Just Surprises Us!

So far, it is unknown the extent of mental retardation Smiley may/may not have. Sometimes, like tonight he surprises us. I don't know what you think but it definately looks like he is problem solving here:

Inside Smiley's mind:

Hmmm...There has to be a way out of this bed....I got it!

1. Jump and jump real hard until the screws come out.

2. Slip out through the bottom!

3. Watch out! I'm free!

Fish

L returned home Tues and I followed back on Wed. No significant damage. We got really lucky. We are missing about a week and a half of school and don't return until Wednesday! The only odd thing is there were fish in our yard and pool. Yuck! I'm glad L cleaned them up before I returned.

Wednesday I had the privilege of spending all day in the hospital for a kidney stone. Lots of fun. I almost laughed hysterically when the nurse asked the usual question, "Is there any possibility you could be pregnant?" Yeah, wouldn't that be nice. I guess it passed but didn't see it, but the pain is much better under control now.

Smiley was at Nannas for 4 days, just long enough to get seriously spoiled rotten and has developed a nice case of armitis.

Anyway, did ok for the hurricane and got pretty lucky this time. Especially considering we have power and the phones work most of the time. Still almost no businesses open and gas is extremely hard to find.
