Where was I ??

Oh yes, my new blog. No excuses for slacking so I'll just get right to it!

It's July 14th already - the kids have been out of school for a month! Holy smokes, where has the time gone?! We've been keeping busy and so far, the kids have not driven be insane yet. YET. We've actually had a lot of fun.

I have a bunch of pictures to share, so I'll just post them all separately. Read on!

My Kids Are...

Funny. Sweet. Energetic. Loud. Happy. Talkative. Innocent. Honest. Observant. Smart. Sassy. Independent. Dramatic. Beautiful. Messy. Clumsy. Strong. Clever. Determined.Strong-willed. Silly. Caring. Athletic. 

EXHAUSTING!

Seriously, I love my kids more than anything but it's only the 2nd day of spring break and I'm already about to pull out my hair. Half the time the girls are at each other's throats, the other half they're sweet as pie. 

I have to say though, tonight Bailie made up for the crappy attitude she had this morning. Without prompting she made dinner (meatloaf & brussel sprouts), dessert (chocolate chip cookies), unloaded the dishwasher then loaded it again, and worked on her 4H report. She's such a good kid when she wants to be. :-)

Love my kids, love my life!

Welcome!

My OCD finally got to me. I couldn't continue posting on my blog titled "Smith, Party of 6" when our family now has 7. So, I'm truly sorry for the 2 people who read my blog that will now have to learn a new URL. I hope you will forgive me. :-)

Don't be discouraged by my lack of pretty much everything on this blog. It's late, I'm tired, I'll work on this another day.
