Wow... I think I have separation anxiety

or I am just SUPER emotional. Mike and I have been gone all weekend finding a home in California. Which I think was successful, I am still waiting for the owner to email me the application, but I have never been so sad as when I had to leave my little kiddos in SG. **** A HUGE Thank you to my parents and my mother in law who watched and spoiled my kids**** This trip made me realize when I say- " I NEED A BREAK", it really just means I want to go to the grocery store alone. I hate leaving my kids and now I KNOW I will have a better time if I just take them with us. I was up this morning at 4 then ready to go at 5, Mike was still sleeping and I told him he had better get up or else I might just leave him. Not really. But I was ready to get home to my beautiful children, I really LOVE them so much. It was really, really weird looking at homes in a totally foreign area, thinking could I live here, could I make this feel like home? Right now it feels like NO this isn't home and it caused me a few tears, but I'm sure it will sometime. Right now we are waiting to get into a home in the Preserve in Chino, California http://www.thepreserveatchino.com/, it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. It seemed safe. It has EVERYTHING I could ever want and more right outside. Hopefully it will all workout. Anyways, that's really all that's going on here. I need to get busy packing, I just haven't found the energy to do it yet. Really, where do I start- any ideas?????

Happy Mother's Day!

I just wanted to wish my Mother and my Mother-in-law a Happy Mother's Day tomorrow! They are both awesome and we love them. I hope you all enjoy your Mother's Day!

Our kids have the best Grandma's around. Thanks for everything you do to help us. I couldn't do it without you both! What are we going to do when we don't live close by....

***WARNING*** It's a long one...

Mike + the boys have been making huge castles or whatever they call them out of blocks. I think Carter looks so cute the way he is sitting and his goofy smile!
He LOVES baseball, he is getting pretty good. He's such a BOY! I just noticed he still has dinner on his face, oh well!

Friday, May 1st Mike graduated with his Bachelors in Biology. Congratulations Babe!!!! We are soooooooooooo proud of you!
Just a cute graduation picture... did I mention I am sooooooo proud of you!?!?!?!

My other little graduate... really... from preschool on May 19th.

And our baby grad... isn't he so stinkin cute?!?!?!

Mike's graduation cake made by Wendy (my brothers wife). She does an amazing job.


This was actually today (I'm not even playing catch up!). Ammon and Carter were playing with the hose. Carter decided he should drink the water out of his chair. Don't you LOVe that his pants are falling off and his diapers showing. TOO CUTE!

I had to add this picture because this is our new van! I can't believe I drive a VAN now. A year ago I would have told you I would NEVER, EVER drive a van. ANd look at me now... it really is so nice though.
Just another picture of water in the chair, totally out of place, oops!

Gotta love the bum... They had so much fun!

Our little family after the graduation, also out of place... whatever. I'm done.
