Life is changing fast

Well it has been almost a month since my last blog entry. I know I am behind on things, I have been busy. I have deiced to go back to school. I am going to get my associates of arts in business. I start online classes on Sept. 3 rd. It is great I don't have to leave the house to go to class. All I have to do is go and get on line and check in to a blog and do my homework. I can't wait to start.

Shelby has started to walk around the couch and holding on to everything and pulling up. She has 8 teeth. She is 9 months old today. She got a new carseat and she loves it. She is growing up so fast.

Gabe is still working on potty training. But it is getting better. He is not enjoying his sister new form of moving around. She likes to pull his hair and take away his toys and he knows he has to be nice to her or he gets in trouble so he just takes what she give him and then comes and tell me or his daddy or his gram that sister is being mean to him. But he always wants her to be on the floor with him where he and she can play. He is talking more and more every day. It is crazy how kids pick up every word you say.

I went and got my hair permed last week. I like the new style change. It is different, it was time to do something new with my hair.

The kids just got back from going away with granny and papa(kyles parents) they went up to prescott to visit some family that lives up there. We let both kids go for 4 days. It drove me crazy not to have my babies with me. Well they came home on friday after noon.Well last night shelby was really fussy and all gassy and she was running a fever too. Great right so now she is sick. She has a slight cold. And we are working on the gas problem. We were up for 3 hours with her last night just trying to get her to go potty # 2. Well we finally ended up giving her some sweet pototoes and it made her go. For some reason when she eats them she gets direaha. But now we know how to make her go with out all the meds.

And as for Gabe well he has a rash of some kind. Not sure what from. we thing it is from the laundry soap that they used. It isn't the same as what we use here at home on their clothes. I have to keep an eye on it and see what happens in the next few days. If it gets worse I will call the doctor and see.

Update on life

Well we have been really busy lately. Shelby is learning that she can pull up on things and Gabe well we are still working on the potty training. Some days are better then others. Today Gabe told me his "MOO" which is his cow flash light was really sick and he was sick too. Well "MOO" sounded sick(the batteries were dieing.)
Moo was given to Gabe by his gram(my grandma) for doing good on his potty chart for a whole month. They go every where together. Gabe has to have MOO to go to sleep. He likes having it when there is a storm so he always has a light with him.

So when we went in to town to get Shelby's weight check done we got something to make "MOO" feel better. Now they both are feeling much better. Shelby is weighing in at 18 lbs 13 oz. They didn't measure her height right for some reason last time she was around 27 inches long.

We have been having the monsoon storms here since about the 7th of July. And we have got a lot of rain around the state but not very much here in Florence. Kyle thought the other morning that he was going to be rained out. I pray some mornings that we don't get a rain out because that means a short pay check.

We have been helping a friend with his race car for weeks now. On Saturday we had planned on going to race it in Tucson. But that race was canceled do to rain. Some times I hate the rain.

We aren't pregnant this month but haven't given up trying. We are putting it in God's hands.
