Back from Eagar today...sad....I wish we could go up there more often. It was a nice 2 day trip for james and I though with no kids! We had a blast on the way up & going back in the vette. We can talk for hours on road trips and never once reach for the radio! Wish i could have visited more with Connie & Homer. I always get so tired when I'm up there and end up sleeping most of the time! Must be the altitude (LoL) One of these days lets catch up just me and you Connie! :-)

Anyways, life is grand. We are having a little trouble with Blake these days though. Don't know if its better he goes to live with his dad for a while or not. Tori will be coming home on the 21st of March for 10 days! YAYYYYYYYY!! I can't wait! It's been 4 months since I've seen my baby girl, and that's just toooooo long in my book! She will be coming back for the summer and for good next school year as well. We may end up just swapping kids & letting blake try it up there for a year. He's just starting the typical "teenage garbage". I feel so unqualified to deal with this! Any ideas out there? It's hard to deal with mouthy,  sarcastic comments and the fighting on going to school...to bed...to church...to whatever. It's exhausting sometimes. I need a manual for this, designed just for Blake! Anyway, he's a pretty good kid, just a little fiesty sometimes! (wonder where he gets that???)

The twins are doing great. Not much talking, but boy, are they SMART! They are always 100 steps ahead of us at all times. They are into anything and everything their little minds can think of. They are so mechanically smart, we sometimes joke when things go missing, that they are secretly building a bomb or a computer or something in their room, or that they're trading stock online already or ordering things on ebay. I wouldn't put it past them! They have their own little "language" if you want to call it that, with each other. I have heard about this but have never actually seen it. They motion & nod and make sounds and this jibber jabber talk to each other, and the other one always knows what she's talking about! It's so cool to watch! They definately are entertaining! I can't believe how big they have gotten. They are solid little girls. Kaelsy is a bit taller and thicker and heavier than sienna. She is like lifting a bag of bricks! My little linebackers! They're getting a little more hair too, sometimes we can even put tiny little pony tails in their hair! I will get more pics up of the kids soon and more info on Tori and Lexie tomorrow. I'm tired, and hopefully will be able to sleep tonight. I have been having a lot of troubles sleeping lately. every other day I seem to be up almost all night. That's when I try reading, making random lists, or blogging again! Later for now......
