ANNOUNCEMENT!

OK ALL BLOG READERS, LISTEN UP! i have made my "comments" section open to write comments, even if you don't have a blogger account! i'd love to see who is reading.... and i didn't realize you could only comment if you had a blogger account. so there ya go, i changed it!

today was a nice day outside again, yay! and guess what? we got our top soil delivered!!! we got some delivered last fall, before it snowed, for super cheap... and then we got another bobcat guy to spread it out for us early this spring. but, we didn't realize we had to have the back done too. basically all previous efforts were for nothing, and now tomorrow they should be coming to finish our final grade. then we order sod and voila, we have GRASS! we're going to lay the sod ourselves. i WISH WISH WISH we could have a fence, it would be awesome! but, there's no point in building one when we're moving in the fall/winter and also, our neighbors on one side move at the end of july, so they won't be doing a fence either. i am temped to go buy some of that plastic construction orange colored fencing and set it up to make us a backyard.

i went to look at a pre-owned home tonight... just in case it was amazing and then we wouldn't have signed our contract. but, i don't think i can go from brand new back to really old. oh well. i tried.

tomorrow i have a day off... well sort of. i just have 1 extra in the morning and then the rest of the day off. we have it full of plans though, so i should probably get myself to bed! i always think of such great things to blog about while in the shower, but then never remember then when i am blogging.

my baby girl loves toast! and her newest thing is goldfish crackers -- thanks to her big brother & sister sharing theirs with her. hmmm... she also likes green beans, carrots, peas, ANY fruit, and her oatmeal cereal. she's not big on anythingi have made for her, like chicken with peas, pureed in the blender, or anything else i've tried.

my koolio kai... looking like such a big boy in this picture! i swear, he looks about 8 if you just look from the head up! haha! i don't have many pics of kai this week because he has been so so so grumpy! maybe because he was sick? it's been very.... tiring for me because he wants to cuddle and be carried and whine all day long and i just can't do it with the others to take care of. he's not sick, just not himself. i sent him to grandpa's house this afternoon for a break!
my princess hallie! her favorite outfit. what a little diva, already! she totally cares about what she wears now, and prefer skirts even if she's out playing in the mud.
my emmy! 8 1/2 months old already!
emerson standing! ok i put her in that position but if she holds onto something, she can stand there for a while! just quite wobbley without any balance! but she does love to stand! all of my babes have been super strong since day 1... now if only she could learn to ROLL OVER!!! haha!

LOL don't worry about Em rolling over, Kade didn't roll over until he started walking, I swear. He took until 10 months! Ivy will probably be the same.

I feel your pain about the DIRT! Ugh, can't wait to sod as well!
