Randomness

It's been awhile since I've had a post filled with lots of different, random stuff. This one will probably be one like that.

It's been a week already since we went to Crane's apple picking. We went on Monday, after the long weekend of rain. It was a perfect day to go, the temperature was perfect! The kids loved it and there were hundreds of honey crisp apples to pick from. We came home with lots of apples, a few donuts and a couple of slices of cherry pie. Yum! We love going every year as a family!


The kids are doing great in school. Abigail loves going. She's tired by Friday, but has been doing great. She got her glasses on Friday, so we'll see how she does wearing them this week. Henry also loves school. I am truly shocked at this. He's been enjoying each day and is so proud of everything he's learning. They both have awesome teachers and we have been so blessed so far this year!

We've been busy, but we're getting into a routine too. The kids don't have school on Monday or Thursday so we've been enjoying those days as "lounge around" days. We really haven't been doing much of anything on those days, which is nice, but also not real productive. We'll see if that changes as we get used to the weeks even more.

I went to the doctor last Tuesday for another appointment. I'm just over 14 weeks now. My doctor couldn't find a heartbeat on Tuesday so I had a quick ultrasound. The little one was moving all around with the heart beating like crazy. It was fun to see the baby at this stage. I am starting to feel a bit better, so I am extremely thankful for that! I'm really tired yet, but my stomach is feeling a little better.

My terrible news of the day...I lost my calendar. I have probably spent over two hours looking for it. It is nowhere. Nowhere. I can hardly handle it. I write everything on there. Everything. I've already missed a birthday (sorry, Kim!) by not having it. It seriously makes me freak out a little. A lot. I really don't know what to do! Ugh!

Time to enjoy a little time while the house is quiet...Henry's sleeping and Abigail's watching "Veggie Tales." Have a great day!

Good to hear you are feeling a bit better...and that the little one is active!

I envy those of you who use calendars. I've tried in the past with no luck...I just don't keep with it. BUT, I'm always having to reschedule appointments and cancel on friends and I seem to miss EVERY birthday! Perhaps one day I'll find something that works for me :)

I'd be LOST without my calendar too. Hope it turns up for you! So nice that your kids are enjoying school. Love their facial expressions as they bite into their apples. :-)

I know I tell you this all the time, but your kids are so dang cute!!

I love the cranes pictures, love that place.

I have pictures of my kids in front of that old little shack at Cranes, (when they were like 3 and 4) and
last week we went there and I took pictures of them
now in front of the door, they were about taller than
the shack!! (at 14 and 16) Time flies, enjoy your babies!!!!
