Miranda took part in her first science fair and took 5th place out of the whole 4th grade! She is a smarty tarty!
Miranda, Haylie and Hannah all learned to ride bikes with the persistence and patience of a good friend! Yeah for them!
Our computer had a drive crash, now I am working from scratch until I get my address book off the old computer!
I lost my diamond from my wedding ring, then found it!
I got to visit a friend in San Diego for the weekend to celebrate the arrival of her little girl. Boy was it fun and such a long desired trip! Can't wait to do it again. I was shocked that 7.5 hours in a car with friends who know all my stories still didn't get old and the drive went by fast! BOTH WAYS!
Jackson took a faceplant and caused a gruesomely bloody nose, two fat lips (top and bottom) scraped chin, upper lip and nose. The stroller got caught on the lip of the curb and Hannah kept pushing. If there wasn't so much blood, it probably would have been comical as Hannah fell on top of the stroller that contained Jackson, who was not even awake from the nap that I rudely woke him up from.
Two days later he tripped over a friends foot, caused his nose to bleed a itty bitty bit and scaped his forehead. He looked real cute for a couple days! But my resourceful two year old solved the bloody problem by sticking a round Trix up his nose. Luckily I was able to get it down with out a trip to the Dr. He came around the corner and pointed to his nose saying "Mommy, it stuck."

He is talking so much and showing signs that he is ready to potty train (which I firmly believe is the worst part of rearing toddlers!). He came up to me and said "Mommy, I stink!"
We hiked a little on Mt. Diablo. It is one of our favorite family activities.
We have only two more birthdays to celebrate until October as far as our immediate family is concerned. Lauren and Jeremy.
Lauren is maturing into a sweet girl. I just adore watching her. She is quick to tattle on Jackson. What she omits is that he learned it from watching her. He mimics everything! She is three and everyday she asks "Is it my birthday party? Is that my cake for my birthday party? I am going to be 4 at my birthday party today!" Jackson ressponds by singing Happy Birthday to her. I guess that is what happens when we celebrate birthdays every month!
Lauren spells her name, but says it with such self assurance, it is so funny.
Haylie and Hannah still enjoy ballet. They love it so much that Haylie now wants to be a ballet teacher when she grows up. Logan is enjoying cub scouts, and Miranda continues to enjoy Acheivement days (kind of like Pioneer girls or girls couts...sort of) with our church.
Life is busy but I wouldn't change it and we still manage to have good family moments. This past friday we did pizza and a movie. I won't name names but some people really enjoyed Camp Rock 2. After dinner, Jeremy surprised all of us with Drumsticks with SPRINKLES. Boy were the kids excited. I wish I had a video camera showing Jackson's response. He was so giddy! Then I wish I would have taken a picture of Lauren's Chocolate go-tee and the puddle of ice cream that was on Jackson's fist as he gripped that cone so tightly! Oh and a picture of Jeremy's face when he realized the mess we would have to clean up!
I ran a whole three miles in the rain! When I say ran please know it is the loosest sense of the word. It was almost my slowest 5k. But there is always room for improvemnt. Now I know I can do it, I just need to step it up...faster! I am starting the real training for my little Tri-Sprint in September.
