Summer has begun

Well, it is official school is out. I am loving it. I like not having to be up at a certain time in the morning or having to be home at a certain time to see the girls off the bus. My big girls also help alot at home. Now I can go to the bathroom and Caroline can watch Ayden. They also help me pick up. I have horrible back pain with this pregnancy so bending and picking up toys or anything else kills me. The girls do most of the picking up for me.

We have been on our own pretty much for the last two weeks. Jeremy has a job that is last minute, so basically, all he has been doing it working either from home or at the office. It has been a bit overwhelming for me. Jeremy is a HUGE help. He takes a lot of stress off of me when he gets home from work. Lately, he gets home, eats, and gets back on his laptop to work some more. The kids are having a hard time b/c they miss playing with Daddy. Thank goodness it will all be over in a couple of days.

We are all very excited about going to the beach. My wonderful inlaws have rented a condo for a week on the beach and we are going to stay with them for 4 days. The kids are so excited!! Jeremy will be finished with this project so we will all be able to relax for a little while and enjoy each others company.

Right now, my mom and younger sister are visiting. It has been nice b/c they are helping out when Jeremy is working. My kids love when Granny and thier aunts come to visit. Another exciting news is Jeremy's sister will be coming home for awhile. She may even get a job here and stay. YIPEE!!

So as you can see our summer is moving forward pretty nicely. For our Baby Blake update, she is doing well and such a wiggle worm. I think she may be a soccer player. She kicks hard for only 28 weeks. Thatcher seems to have taken to this pregnancy much better than with Ayden's. He kisses my belly and asks what Blake is doing all the time. I am feeling okay. I have started walking more and it helps alot. I still have days where I feel very overwhelmed and totally exhausted but they seem to come less.
