Our week without Kris

is almost over. He is actually in town, but can't come home until tomorrow am. He spent the week at Ft. Chaffee playing with guns and grenades, and I spent the week chasing kids and dog.

Jasper is fitting into the family nicely. He knows to go potty outside with the occasional accident, and he knows what SIT means at least 50% of the time. The best news is he now sleeps for 7-8 hours at night...yahoo!

The flu is going around right now and it landed at the babysitter's house, so I stayed home most of the week with the kids. Aunt Brenda also stayed for 2 days to help out (she is a lifesaver) and we all enjoyed her visit.

The weather was beautiful this week!! I'm talking 60's, 70's, and sunny. What a relief from the winter blues. Kailey earned a ribbon in gymnastics this week for mastering her back walkover! We were very excited, but wish Kris could've been here to see it.

Jayden and Jasper are already asleep, Kailey's watching tv, and the rain is moving in, so I'm going to spring forward and go to bed. Night!
