crazy times at the mam's house!!!!!

We had such a great time yesterday. I am exhausted. Back is sore and I could sleep. It is 7 a.m. Everyone is up but Andrew and Papa. But as noisy as the kids are... the others will be awake soon. I was in bed.... papa was in his chair. Maddie comes in because her sleeping bag was messed up after 6. She climbed in bed with me. Next thing I know Jordy is climbing in bed... then Dylan. That was comfy cozy. not. We laughed until I almost fell out the side and I got up.

Friday did all our errands.... Papa went to his cardiologist. What a waste of time. Besides visiting.... he changed nothing. Papa is doing great. I took pictures to mom's and visited for a spell.... got her weight watchers books. They are awesome. Picked up Andrew at school, picked up Sandy and their stuff, picked up Lauren and came home. Then we left and Andrew got an awesome swimsuit he is super happy with and flip flops he likes too. Next he went to guys night at youth group and had so much fun. I got to meet the infamous Norman.... Andrews mentor. Nice guy. Papa was upset with himself because he had read his walmart schedule wrong.... he was suppose to work 7-11... not 4-8. So he came home until it was time to leave.

In the morning we went to Lauren's lessons and she put her head under further. Michael didn't work with us like I was hoping. He didn't even acknowledge us. So maybe he just said he would help to appease his mom.... I don't know. Andrew ran the high school track with Auntie Karla, Maddie and Dylan. He ran two miles. Pretty cool. Dylan and Maddie went home with us and Papa had picked up Jordy and Riley and they were waiting at the house. We had lunch and got ready and took off to the pool!!!! When we got to the pool they were doing this big awards presentation so there were quite a few people!

The kids were all trying to encourage Lauren to jump!
Here is the brave one going down the water slide by herself!!!! First time she went down with Andrew... next time she tried to go with Dylan and the person said she had to go by herself! I was shocked to see her.... she was so happy! I won't even go down it!!! It is a dark and windy tunnel!!! Last time I got turned around and scared and Kevon and Andrew were laughing at me at the bottom! Never again for me.... Lauren did it many more times!!!!
Jordy's turn....
Dylan loved it....
Maddie wanted to try.... here is her first time with Andrew... she wanted to do it over and over. She wore Andrew out!
Maddie thanking Andrew!
Pretty girl Jordy was having a blast.

Dylan and Jordy!

They all had so much fun.... even me! Only planned on staying an hour but stayed 3 hours. Andrew and Jordy wanted to go on the rope swings and diving boards so they had to take a test with a lifeguard over in the lap pool (which is a separate pool) They had to swim the length of the pool and then tread water and float. They passed and got bracelets and licenses so they won't have to take it again. Big accomplishments of the day: All three girls went down lazy river by themselves, Lauren went down the big slide alone, Riley swam 12-15 feet alone, Maddie went down the big slide, Dylan went every way possible down the slide... on back, front, backwards, etc..., Jordy and Andrew went off the high dive! They all had a great time. Stopped and got sundaes/cones at McDonalds and came home. The kids all showered at the pool after swimming so we didn't have to deal with that at home. I showered at home. Had dinner and everyone played and played. They watched some tv.... caught Dylan with Jordy.... quite a shock... he pulled away quickly. lol! He loves his cousin! So does Andrew.... especially when Jordy talked to Auntie Manda by phone and she agreed to let Andrew have something..... so Andrew was super happy and thankful!!!!
The girls having their ice cream cones! num....Dylan and Jo snacking.....Bedtime for girls....
Dylan and Jo fought over who got the loveseat....So they decided to both sleep on the floor... Jo teasing Dylan and laying on his pillow... he doesn't like that! lolWe didn't play our games like we were going to. Time just goes so fast!!!

They are having such fun this morning! Wrestling... Jo stealing Dylan's sock, pig piling, etc... Dylan and jo made scrambled eggs/omelets with ham and cheese. They did pretty good.I have to go watch a play right now.... love it! Til later!!!! Have a great day! xoxo No weather posted.... it is sunny! Movies tomorrow or later!!!!
