Well, I guess it's about time that I wrote a post on my blog. Needless to say, things have been a little bit crazy since our fire occurred. We moved back home April 1st, and despite dealing with our difficult insurance company, we are very happy to be back home! Although, we have been back home for a month now, I still have a few boxes to still go through and get some things organized, but things have been a little busy. The month of March brought Spring Break and Seth's birthday. He is now 10 years old, which is hard to believe. He is growing up so fast. He is now in the Webleos Scout den, and playing baseball. He had to try out this year to play on a 10,11,12 year old league. He made the upper league where they only pick about 30 ten year olds out of about 130 boys trying out in that age group. He is adjusting to the more intense league, but as a ten year old doesn't get much playing time in a game, and as a parent Iwonder if the other league would have been more beneficial for him, however Seth is learning how to hit off of 12 year olds pitching the ball fast, and is getting more confidence as the season goes on. April, brought moving back home, Easter, Kite Festival, Pinewood derby for Seth, Field day's, and Baseball Baseball Baseball! Seth's school had there track and field day and he took 1st place in the final for the 50 meter dash, and barely lost in the 100 meter dash final taking second place, his relay team also took first place for his age division 9-10 year olds. He will be racing in the district trackmeet this weekend, so we will see how he does.

Matt and Megan's field day was on Friday, they had a fun time and they both ran in the final race for the kids in their grade, they did good; however, they don't quite have the speedy gift of speed as Seth does, but are still pretty above average. Megan took second place in the soft ball throw for the girls in her grade, so she was excited about that. Seth, Matt, and Megan are all in baseball right now and between the 3 of them we have 5 to 6 games a week, plus practices. Baseball season will last until mid June. It's pretty busy! Sadie is being a busy 3 year old and loves to play with friends and cousins as much as possible. Bailee turns 8 months old on the 9th of May. She is a very chubby baby she already weighs 21 pounds.! She is sitting up on her own now, and is getting up on her hands and knees and tries to scoot, but isn't crawling yet. She is a fun baby, but boy does she have a mind of her own and a temper to say the least! She thinks she needs her mom's undivided attention all the time. This can make it difficult, especially when I have 4 other kids that need my help and let's not bring up time for cooking, cleaning, ect...It's hard to believe that school will be out in 3 weeks, and all 5 kids will be home for the next 3 months. I have got to decide on how to make this an enjoyable summer for all of us, or else I will go crazy! I hope all of you and your families are doing well, and enjoying the end of spring weather before the real HOT HOT HOT summer begins!
