BUSY BUSY BUSY!!

Hello, just a quick update before I do some laundry...

Brookie is good, starting to wake up right now and I hope she stays asleep so I can do laundry, growing like a weed and just as happy as can be!! She is getting baptized on April 19th and we are all excited...just need to buy her a baptismal gown.

Aidan is also doing well. Loving school still. His conference is tomorrow. I hope I can make it to it. He felt warm this morning as I was leaving for my mom's group and sure enough has a slight fever and has had it all day. I hope it doesn't progress to more. My mom is suppose to watch him tomorrow during the conference but if he is sick I won't be going. He LOVES his little sister and is the best help with her!!

John...hasn't been working at UPS much. He has worked 4 days out of the last 8 weeks. Not good for paying bills and our budget...err I mean WHAT budget!! He was called in at 11am today because someone got an on the job concussion. The guy who drove him to the truck (it was already in the middle of the route) said to expect to work tomorrow and all of next week and that things should substantially pick up from here on out. Same thing was said last year at this time and it wasn't until June that things picked up so we'll see. He is picking up as many hours at Garlic Jim's as possible. He only has one night off at this point a week unless he is driving for UPS then he doesn't go in at all.

Me...well I am as I like to refer to it as on "baby patrol" for a few friends that I know are due anyday now!! I am so excited for them to welcome their newest family members!! Other than that I am doing my jobs, taking care of my family and trying to be thankful for all that I have no matter how challenging my life is right now with John not working. There ARE people who have a lot less than we do. Other than that, nothing new with me. I am itching to scrapbook but can't until John is working full-time again at UPS. All my money I earn goes towards bills and such and not fun stuff such as scrap booking. Boo, but I would rather have a roof over my head then scrapbook.

Aid, just walked out of our room (its TV day since he isn't feeling well) and noticed that Brookie had kicked off her blanket. He picked it up and put it back on her without me asking!! I love how much he loves her!! More to come later!!
