Milestones!

Brian is getting ready for work at the moment, Luke is bouncing and.. I just finished off a hazelnut iced coffee. Holy moly. I feel like I'm on crack.  I can't wait for Brian to get off work, we need to paint trim and doors.  Some guys will be here next week to hang the doors so I'm ready to get all of this painting done.

Yesterday was Luke's half birthday!  I can hardly believe he's already 6 months old.  It was just yesterday that I was driving Brian nuts with my baby fever.  I NEEEEEEDED a baby. wellllll now I've got a baby and I do NOT have baby fever..lol.  Most days I feel like pulling my hair out.  I love my children but God did not grant me with the patience thats needed to take care of children.

Luke has started babbling more, and he can get up on his knees.  I watch him repeatedly throw himself forward.  He flops onto his stomach.  Figuring out how to use those long dangly things that lay limp on the floor seems to be really frustrating to him.  He's pretty sure that they don't work, and that I am crazy for encouraging him to continue.  and He probably thinks I look like an idiot while I smile and coo and say "Good boy!" as if he were a dog who just rolled over.

So really thats about all thats going on right now.  Next week is the 4th of July, and Raegan's half birthday! Maybe we'll make a cake.  I'm not sure how she'll like the fireworks.  She really doesn't like loud sounds. buttttt I'd feel bad for her missing such a beautiful display of colorful lights.

4 weeks into the Summer semester and 12 assignments later, I still have 100 out of 100 points in both of my classes.  Now if I can keep this up, I will have A's in both of my classes and on my transcript.  It makes me feel good.. I think the only A I got in any class in high school was in Music.. which was a lot of fun, but felt like a bird course.  So having an A in both of my Psychology classes is saying a great deal on my part!  I think the only other A I have on my college transcript, was in Intro to Psych.  So maybe that says a little bit more.

In other news, today is going to be a beautiful day.  Beautiful yes, and HOTTTTT yes.  Last summer was ridiculous. It was 112-116 degrees the whole month of July.  This is the end of June and its been 100-104.. which is better but its still hot, we have barely any shade in our yard... so in the evenings we've been going to Brian's mother's to swim in a pool we put up.. so Raegan can swim in the shade in the evenings.  She realllly enjoys it.

Well I'm surprised I got this much typed on my own without kids screaming. So I shall end this before they change their mind about allowing me to concentrate.

I hope anyone who reads this has a wonderful day, and is super blessed.
