I have no clever titles anymore. . . .

I'm working backwards, be patient:)  Luke is his usual almost 23 pound 10 month old self.  No, he doesn't crawl, I barely have him on the floor because I don't want him to get harmed by the other children.:)

BooHoo.  We said goodbye to Kristin last week.  We will sorely miss her:(  But she is going home to get married!!  Yahoo.

Lawrence graduated from Kindergarten.  We, I mean, he will miss it:)

Jud and Emma go back in August.  They will join their same teachers and class mates for their last year of Kindergarten and then I will have 5 children at home to school.  Oh my.  

Emma's teachers love her.

Last day of school!!  

I made my own cake after my birthday was officially cancelled due to throwing up Judson and feverish Luke.

My life has consisted of many game nights this month.

First day at the pool!!

Hair cuts!

Dance recital.

Carolines Dance performance

If ever a blog post was for the Grandparents, this is it:)  Will try to upload pics soon, just trying to keep up with all the kids home and guests and saying goodbye to everyone leaving over here!  Thankful for this class that our neighbor helped us find for Caroline, she loves it.  She is on break now until the beginning of Sept!!  Enjoy!!

Luke was really ill right after my folks got here.  

We went to the park while the big kids went with Daddy camping.

If you know where we are, you know this is my fav restaurant!  

Started eating solids and sleeping through the night after he got better.  Only took 8 months!! 

Proof they were here!  Sorry Dad, should have asked before I posted:)

What we have been up to

Well, sorry for the long time off.  Flu, computer troubles, a great visit with my folks, life, you know.. . Here are updates starting most recent.  Oh, Luke got his first tooth today!  Almost 9 months old!

Its getting hot.  Popsicles with our neighbor friends at the local park on the mandatory day off when leaders met in our city.

The silk worms are hatching!  We hadn't looked at them over the weekend and found them coming out of the box on Monday!!  WAAAHHH.  The only science my kids have had all year.   We grew them from when they were tiny tiny and watched them grow and build their cacoons.
