Julie is PREGO!!

Yes, Julie finally went to dr. today & she is right at 8 weeks pregnant. I have known for two weeks but had to keep quiet. She told no one and I told like five people and told them not to tell, lol! Her due date is July 6th. She got a call this morning that Hannah will probley remain in the foster home she is at right now until December 11th then the mom has the chance to get her back because she has stayed clean the last two drug tests. We will see what happens & pray that everything works out the way it should. She does not want to foster her if the mom has the chance to get her back. Doesn't want to get attached or the kids attached to her. Anyways, Happy Thanksgiving again! CONGRATS CYNTHIA & JOEY ON THE BIRTH OF ABIGAIL TODAY! SHE IS BEAUTIFUL. MAKE SURE YOU KEEP UPDATING YOUR BLOG SO WE CAN SEE HER IN ALL THOSE OUTFITS YOUR SISTER BOUGHT.

Thunderbash, my little indians, singing, book parade & Christmas list

Maybe I should blog more often so I want have so much to blog about or realize I don't have to blog everything I take a picture of. Last Monday Brooke got to attend a Bounce party at schoool for selling over $70 in fundraiser stuff. Wednesday night for awanas the kids had to dress like pilgrims/indians. Brooke has worn the same Old Navy costume for three years well she could barely move in it this year. Mom get ready to make a new one. My mom made Bradys outfit (thanks mom). Saturday the kids cut out pictures like they do every year to make Christmas lists for grandparents. Its crazy they don't play with half the toys they own but cut out atleast a thousand dollars worth of stuff. Now its ipods, digital cameras, razor scooters. Sunday Brookes choir sang their Thanksgiving songs.Monday Brookes school had book parade. Her class selected SkippyJon Jones which is about a white cat with black tail, black paws who thinks he's a dog when he looks in the mirror. My mom made her a cat costume (once again thanks mom) and I must say I don't normally like cats (sorry Margo) but she was one cute kitty. Yesterday Brookes class had pow wow day & the parents got to come and enjoy vegetable soup. I think that keeps you updated until Thanksgiving. Hope everyone has a great one. We have so much to be Thankful for. Right now I am really thankful Heath took today off & we don't go back to work until Monday.

It's A Girl!

Yep, thats right its another baby for our family. Well, thank goodness its not me.
Jacob & Jadens birth mother gave birth almost two weeks ago to a little girl she named Hannah. They are working on getting Julies foster license switched from two kids to three so hopefully if all goes well she will get the baby this week. Not sure she will get to adopt this one as the mom will once again get the chance to get her act together and get the baby back. Well, she didn't with Jacob & Jaden & that should all be finalized December 18th so chances are she won't this time either. I will post pics as soon as she arrives.

Flowers & Babysitting

Well, I will follow up with my last blog that said vote. I did vote & the one I voted for didn't win so I will once again just say pray, pray & pray some more.
Heath & I are doing the love dare book so Wednesday he brought home these flowers since the book said to buy your spouse something that day. I ofcourse totally forgot and he comes home from work with flowers. The kids & I had just gotten home from Piggly Wiggly to buy brocoli. I said well I bought brocoli for the rice & brocoli casserole I am making for your thanksgiving lunch at work tomorrow. I am not real sure if that counted but I thought it was sweet that he remembered.We babysat Jacob & Jaden tonight and Jaden loves to go get Brookes purse and pull everything out of it and put on the jewelry. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Vote!

Don't forget to get out there and vote today & pray, pray, and pray some more. Our kids will be selling lemonade, cookies, doughnuts and other goodies at Lugoff Elgin Middle today so stop by if you get a chance or if you are voting there. Brooke & Brady have the 11am-1pm shift. The money is for Operation Christmas child.

Trunk or Treat

Friday night our church celebrated with Trunk or Treat. We have over thirty families decorate their trunks and my kids got way more candy then they needed. Yes, thats my mom dressed as Raggedy Ann. She loves Halloween - she was Tina Turner one year. Brooke ofcourse was Dorothy, Brady was the lion, my nephew Aaron was a scarecrow, Jacob was the tinman and Jaden was a lolipop gil. We managed to trick or treat at my neighbors first (Brookes teachers house) and then headed to the church. Brooke also won a cake playing the cakewalk at church and she got so excited about that. The kids had a great time and were worn out. We had to get up early for Brookes last soccer game but the kids had a great time.
