I hear ya faithmom. I am psuedo-looking for work at home...not very seriously right now. Jake will not be in school full time for another 2 years.
School starts the first week of september here. i actually cannot wait. i'm exhausted.
this past friday we went to Howe Caverns. the boys loved "exploring" the cave. Nick said "it's creepy down here" stephen said "wow, look at that" (pointing to a huge stalagmite -- or was it a stalagtite?) Jake said "Holy shoot!" hahaha! anyway, it was fun. we bought them each a minor hard hat (the ones with the light on the front).
saturday, we jaunted over to MIL's house. her town was having a town-wide garage sale. DH found a couple of good deals for some tools he wanted, & i found a serving plate for a dime, a snow suit for Jake for $5, a raincoat for Nick for $1, and wooden folding chairs for $2/each (we bought 8 of them!).
then DH decided he and the boys were going to camp out in MIL's backyard! boy, i tell ya! spontenaity is not my strong suit! but i agreed.
long about 11:30pm, Jake started screaming! i think he awoke and was disoriented as to where he was. i could not calm him down. half an hour later, Jake still screaming, i told DH that i was taking him home or no one was going to sleep that night! LOL! so i drove jake and I home and went back sunday morning for DH & the other two boys.
i guess we won't be doing that again too soon!
hope everyone had a great weekend.
