Yup, We're Still Here...

First of all...

Happy Late bday to Granma Blankinship..Forgot to get it on the website when it was last Thursday. We had her bday part at Jen and Chris's on Sunday, good food and good fun watching the kiddos..

Secondly..a short version of the long story of our going ons lately..

Andrew is tballing with coach Daddy on Mondays at 6:45 and Saturday 11:30 for an hour and half. We should have schedules today and shirts. Their team is the "Dinosaurs". We are even getting hats with a D stiched on them. Paul is learning that more then two kids is kinda nerve wrecking especially when they are not your kiddos..But he is really enjoying coaching as far as I can tell..Andrew is LOVING tball so much that he wants to play even after practice when he gets home and he wants to play at everyone else's house as well. He has new tball pants and cleets and a new baseball bat, so the next time you see him ask him about tball. We will have schedules for those that would like to come and watch the little kiddos play..He is still doing his karate and loving it as well..

Maddie, Maddie, Maddie, where do I start. She is on the go non stop until she gets worn down and then she sleeps for a little while and then gets up and goes again. She is 11 months old today. Can't believe our baby is almost a year old. Time really does fly and even more so I think b/c this is the last one I will ever have. But I am going to enjoy them to the last drop every day and every hour..Okay now back to Maddie, we took her to see Dr. Couch a orthopedic about her right foot that she turns almost sideways when she walks and he said that everything looks good just ignore it and it should get better. It does not slow her down. She is one smart cookie and she knows how to work her daddy and her brother. She does stuff that she knows will piss off Brother and then she grins and then she goes right back and does it again.

Brother and Sister Love and fights...She does things to irratate him on purpose and the gets irritate and then the screaming starts and then before you know it you are getting on to Andrew he is telling you that he did not do anything Mads did it and Mads is smiling and sometimes laughing b/c big brother is getting in trouble and as soon as you are done getting on to both of them she very turns around again and does the same thing all over to make him holler...it is too cute to watch and sure brings back memories for me and daddy of our childhood..

As for Paul he tested yesterday for his MPO 2 test and made it so pay raise and another stripe to his uniform, I am proud of him..He is staying busy with work and coaching tball and playing softball as well. We had our first placement game Friday night and we tied the other team. Our second game is tonight at 8:30 and we are playing a fun team, the Vet Med team.

For me staying busy at work, the new job keeps me on my toes and learning more and more everyday, sometimes good and sometimes bad. Time goes by a lot faster b/c I am staying more busy. Staying busy at home being referee with the kids and with the kids and daddy too. I am playing softball again the year. We should have a schedule the end of the month and I will get it posted on here.

I am getting ready to head to Indianapolis the end of the month for a trade show for work. Not to keen on the flying but will make it. Paul won't be able to go with me since he is coaching. But I am making a trip the end of June to Mass and that one he is going to go with me I am doing that show by myself and would be a great time for a nice get away for us.

Other then that staying busy and busy and busy...I can't imagine when both kids are doing activities and so are we...But that is what keeps ya young right or is that what makes you old...I will say keeps ya young sounds better...We sure miss Uncle Jake can't wait to see him this weekend....

Well better get to work I do have pictures at home on the camera that I will try to get posted tonight..We finally have our internet up and running after being down for 4 days. The modem died and talk about upset 4 year old and daddy...No internet, no games...

Until later....
