Gonna do better.

Here are some recent pics my sister took. Man, I have cute kids!
Look at my cute Lucas. Totally not paying attention to the picture taking...but soo cute. This pic cracks me up. It's not too often that I actually see myself with all my kids. Wow - I have quite a crew!

This is SOOO Gabriella. Love love love her.
I am really becoming a lazy blogger these days. Not sure why, but I think it has something to do with the fact that Shawn has gotten us hooked on watching "Lost". We are still in the first season, but it seems to take up the nights, hence putting my blogging time on hold. I am going to attempt to blog more though. Funny I say that...I started this post on Friday and now it's Monday and still not done! ha!

Just need to post something...

It's been awhile since I've been on here...so I thought I better come up with something exciting to tell all my fans (all 12 of you). Let's see. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous so we have spent the majority of our time outdoors. We've already been to the petting zoo, 17 different parks and played for hours in the backyard. Lucas has discovered a whole new play area called "the backyard". He was amazed the first time he got to go out and play and spend an hour and a half in the sandbox without moving. He had no idea what he was missing out on!! The only problem is that now when we are inside, he just stands at the backyard screaming at the top of his lungs. He is crackin' us up as usual, he has such a funny personality. And the looks he gives are priceless. He loves to get into whatever his siblings are doing and do just the same. He even did some coach-pitch baseball last night with Shawn and Austin!! And he hit the ball!! I think we have a baller!! Scholarship, baby, scholarship.
We had a wonderful Easter - the weather couldn't have been better. Had a great day with the fam. My mom is doing better, still learning to deal with the RA, but I think she is figuring out how to make it work. We even went shopping for a few hours on Sunday! That's how we know she's feeling good - 3 pairs of shoes were bought at the first stop. Go MOM!!
Today is dad's b-day - he doesn't seem to add a year to his age anymore though - he just subtracts a year from the years until retirement.
Shawn is working like crazy these days. Economy is still not good, he has a job which we are very thankful for, but the hours are long as there aren't many people left in his office. I'm sure Obama is gonna turn that around though....right right.

Ok, I started this post yesterday and just realized that I forgot to finish it and post it...it is now over 24 hours since I started the post. But now, I have more important things to do - like leave for the weekend!!!!!!!!! Yup, I'm headed to the hotel with some gals for some serious scrapbookin'.
Hope your weekend is as good as mine!
