My new ride!!

Robert calls it the man van. For those of you that do not know that Robert and I will be expecting our fourth child in June. We could not fit another person in the explorer, so we went and bought a Honda Odyssey. I LOVE IT. I love Robert even more for getting it for me!! He's the man!!

Claire's the big 3!

Yesterday Claire turned 3 years old. This girl is so funny. She woke up yesterday morning and I reminded her that it was her Birthday day, she looked at me and pointed to her toes then to her head and said "look, I'm all tall know". Poor Claire she just started wearing 2T clothes. She has the vocab of a 5 year old. Even when she disobeys she is still cute. You can read Robert's blog for more funny stuff about Claire. Robert took her on her Birthday date today for lunch.

Grocery Bill

I am really getting mad about the cost of groceries. I went to the store on Monday just to get a few things. I left with $57.60 worth of nothing. Milk is now $4.00 a gallon when two years ago it was $1.98 a gallon. I told Robert that we needed to stop eating. We would be rich if we just cut out food. But, then again, we would die.

What are your thoughts about this?

Change of heart.

If you have not read Robert's blog you should. Robert and I felt the call to home school Ashlin. We took her out of public school last Tuesday. Last week went well, today UPS will bring her books. I love to teach and train our children. Ashlin and Claire love for me to teach them. We are very excited! I pray that Robert and I will teach, train and disciple our children to love their God with all their heart, soul, mind and strength. That they may honor Him with their lives and desire His will over their own.

Thank you Father.

O Claire

Yesterday was Claire's first day of Mother's Day out. She will be attending on Tuesday and Thursdays. I picked her up yesterday and asked if she had fun, she said yes. I also asked her what did she learn about. At first she said nothing, then it was like a light went off in her head. She stopped and said I learned about Adam and Eve and they got naked! I laughed. I tried to remind her of the rest of the story. O, this year going to be fun!!

school days

Robert and Ashlin started back to school the same day. Ashlin did great!! No crying all week until Thursday night. She was worn out and sad that mom and dad were not at school with her. She said she never gets to see us. So Friday I went up to eat lunch with her and I brought McDonald's. She was cool with going back on Friday because she knew mommy was coming for lunch.



Robert on the other hand cried like a baby on Monday. I would to if I had to take Hebrew. I feel sorry for the man. Ok, he really didn't cry. But, he will want to by the end of the semester. I believe that after this semester he will be a little more than half way done. I feel like we have been saying for years now that he only has two years left.

Life

We took Ashlin to "meet the teacher" night. She loved her room and her teacher. Her teacher is Shelly McDaniel. We dropped off the school supplies, found her cubbie and her desk. She is sitting by all BOYS!! Oh, she'll have them put in their place by lunch time. Robert has been teaching her some moves, just in case any boy tries to make a move on her. She's ready!!

Tomorrow we are taking 35 students to Six Flags. Levi is staying with a baby sitter. Ashlin and Claire will be attending with us. There is a concert that night, so we will be home rather late. Naps for everyone on Sunday!!

I baked and decorated another cake today. I don't like it has much.
