Well another week has come and gone, the good thing is Zach goes back on track on Mon. Yes! i love having my kids home with me, but not for 5 weeks during the school yr. like this. he has just gotten way to bored. And on the days when Adam doesn't have preschool, the two of them just fight.

So he is very ready to go back to school. Monica just recently started Driver's Ed. :( i wasn't ready for this day 8 yr. ago and i am still not ready for it now :( she was so excited to get to school last Tue. it was unreal, and now she is so funny she thinks that she is ready to get in the car and start driving with the instructor. Although she has already been driving with shane, not in my car mind you. The learning car is shane's Car :) And when she goes out driving it's with shane :) he can handle it, i can't.

ok i have a post about monica and the fam. although i tried to put it on our blog pg, it ended up somewhere else, long story :( any way i have a post about her and when i figure out how to transfer it where i want it i will get it there.

Any way that's why i did one of all the other kids, and not her. so today is Mon. and the kids are out of school again for Martin Luther King day. and then Zach doesn't go back until next week this has been a long 5 weeks, i love having my kids home with me but Zach does better when he is out for less time.

well i am of to my usuall Mon. stuff I hope that whoever reads this, has a wonderful Mon. i am at least going to try. :)?

Today the kids are all home due to the fact that it is the end of term for monica and CJ, Zach is still off track for another week, and Adam doesn't have preschool on fri.

So we are doing the usual luandry and chores which they love NOT. then i am taking the kids to grama's tonight while shane and i have a date night. we try to have date nights often but doesn't work out very well still yet. but it will get better :).

ok so my last post of updateing the family didn't really work out so i am going to start with CJ and then cont. and then i will find a way to Add the other later.

CJ- is in the 7th grade this yr. i was a little worried about him transitioning to jr high, not because of the school but just because of his personality and i was worried about the bigger kids taking advantage of him he is still a bean pole and i just worry that he can't hold his own yet, that's just the mother in me talking. He has done very well, he is enjoying his classes, he has done some projects for his history class and the last project that he did he built a fort and his teacher was so pleased with how well he did. she gave him an A++++ he did a very good job i was very pleased and proud.

He became a Deacon in Sept. and now gets to pass the Sacrament, i sit there and watch him and am so proud he is growing up way to fast.it's hard to believe i will have two teenagers this yr. i really am so not ready for that. He is taking a brake from Karate right now he got his purple belt, but he has decided to take a brake for a while.

Zach- he is 9 now and is having lots of fun in school, he is also in cub scouts and has fun with that. he has a fantastic teacher he still struggles with his developemental delay prob. but he gets better with them a little bit every day, but he does still stuggle.

Adam- he is in preschool now, and loves it. he wont talk to his teacher, but he does do what he needs to do while he is there. he gets to do show and tell and play with trains and other toys, his teacher has some cats and every once in a while the cats are there during class and they get to play with them and i talks about it all the time. He alsl started Sunbeams this yr. he also has a wonderful teacher there, i took him to class last sun. and he cried at first but then he settled down, it was hard for me to drop in off, but i had my class to teach so shane suppervised him. and in the end he did fine :)

Shane- is still with Morton Salt he oversees the trucks now, i am so proud of him from where he started with the comp. to now he has come a long way. he is also the scout leader ver the 11 yr old boys, and then just helping me out at home. I don't know how i got so lucky, to be blessed with such a wonderful husband :)

I am still blessed to be a stay at home mom, I am also blessed to be able to sell AVON and still be at home when the kids leave for school and be here when they get home, i wouldn't have it any other way. And if i cant be there when they get hom, my awesome parents help out, or Monica and CJ do ok for a little bit. We are still monitoring my Iron, the prob. is still there but for right now it's being good.

Life is good right now for our fam. and we are truly blessed :)
