Blog? What? I have a blog?

It has been SO LONG since I have posted. How sad. We have had a whole lot going on.

So, this will be a quick get caught up post ...

We have another dog and oh me oh my am I in love with her. She is 8 lbs, smaller than my cats, and is so funny and cute. I can't believe how quickly I fell in love with her. Madelyn too. Molly (the chihuahua) LOVES the kids. She is so sweet. I found her on craigslist.com. Her family was moving and couldn't take her with them. Daisy and the cats have been fine with her. She's so little it's like they don't really care.

Elijah continues to crack us up. He has decided to call Molly "Ayeechop." I'm not too sure on the spelling, but it's pretty funny and has stuck with him.

We were in the car yesterday and Elijah said, "When I drink water from a water bottle and stick my tongue in that's my tongue exercise."

Madelyn really has a fun sense of humor now. She totally gets jokes, or funny things which is fun to see.

We are going to the beach with Shannon and her family and my mom. It should be crazy, but fun. Man do I love the beach. The doctor said this morning that the salty air should really help clear out Elijah's nose congestion. He gets sinus infections pretty regularly. Hearing her say that though I think is enough confirmation that we need to move to the beach. I'll keep you posted on that.

Friends are the best. I have 2 friends who just had babies. I love to see good families multiplying their numbers. Dan seems to be getting a bit of baby fever lately. I, on the other hand, am not.

Nick's nephew just died from a burst brain aneurysm. I can't even begin to describe how sad it is. He was such a great kid. The funeral home said about 1,000 people showed up for the viewing. As a mother it tears my heart apart to think about losing one of my children. They buried him on the day they were to have his graduation party.

Dan is doing well and is continuing to wean off his meds. While this makes me a little nervous I am glad for him. He looks healthier and not as bloated, especially in his face. Many people have commented lately. I think that makes him feel better as well.

Right now I should be cleaning out my car, packing, making beds and washing sheets, but instead I am online. Go figure.

Why is it that lately I have thought of all these things to post about and when I finally do I can't remember half the things?

Oh well. I guess this will do for now.

Glad to hear from you again! And I'm jealous about the beach. But we're going camping near a waterpark! :)
