Latest happenings

Hi again. I never got a chance to put Clayton's whitewater rafting pictures on the blog (Clayton is the one in the blue helmet). He went on our anniversary (August 18) to Ocoee River in Tennessee with some men from church, and had a great time. He was home by 4:00pm to celebrate our anniversary, so I didn't have a problem with him going on that day. :) So, here's some pictures of him whitewater rafting! I've been busy with being a Room Representative for Kevin's kindergarten class. I've had to have meetings at the school and with his teacher, and had to type letters to parents/e-mail/plan things like class parties, volunteers, etc... I'm glad to do it though, so I can be involved with him and his class, and get to know his teacher pretty well too. I also "volunteered" (got pushed into) being Kevin's soccer team's Team Mom, so I'll have to organize snacks for after games and organize an end of the season party for that too. We've been continuing with soccer practice, which Kevin really enjoys and now he kicks the soccer ball all through the house too. So, my 5 year old is definitely keeping me busy (as is my 2 month old.) Chloe is still doing well, and we have a doctor's appt. for her tomorrow. I'm anxious to see how much she's grown. And now onto that middle child of mine, who is now pretty much my constant shadow. :) Darcy was running in flip-flops on the driveway, which she has been told not to do time and time again, so here's the photo of the huge bump she got on her forehead. She skinned up her knees and hands a little bit too. But, as you can see from the picture, a little bit of love and a lollipop helped her feel much better! And I followed Jill's lead and let Darcy bake while Chloe was sleeping the other day, and she had a great time making sugar cookies and decorating them. Well, that's about it for now. We'll write more later and put more Chloe pictures in then!
