As if I didn’t already have heaps of respect for single mothers everywhere. This past week I had the slightest glimpse into that realm and have decided I’m a little too weak for this. In short it’s Friday and I’m exhausted! Hurry home honey! If this was your plan to make me appreciate allll you do it worked! Dean left on Sunday and I think after a nice long Sunday nap things were going well. It hit me on Monday morning though (as Dean takes maddy or Maddy and Logan to school in the morning) Almost like it suddenly dawned on me out of nowhere. Yikes it’s after 7 and i need to get all of us ready to drop of Maddy. So here is a few of our activities this week that you missed. The beach, the park, the zoo, the outlets, toys r us :) and everything in between. Yeah, we had to go on lots of outings for mom’s sanity. Just so that those precious children got to see their dad with every beautiful hair on their heads. :) We had some very fun moments and then those that I was definitely ...12 days ago
Halloween 2009……. Ariel, Buzz Light year and a very busy ladybug. Thought I would finally get on and post some pictures of all the Halloween festivities. I think Halloween on Saturday meant twice as many activities. On Friday the kids had their school parades and parties and then off to trick or treat on Linden to all the little shops.Then Saturday was the church trunk or treat and more trick or treating in the neighborhood. Not to mention finding time to fit in a few pumpkin patches here and there .As of recently I am realizing that getting a good picture of 3 kids is near impossible. Trying to get them all to smile, look the same way, and the biggest challenge is to get Chantel to sit still. She is soooo busy. I have pretty much relinquished the idea of being able to get a good pix of Chantel for the next year. 90 percent of them are of her backside or her sprinting to put her face into the camera. Oy. Oh well these are some pictures of the kids in their Halloween costumes and a ...51 days ago
Today I find myself trying to decide what’s more crazy. Summertime, with lots of free time and running all over the place playing and entertaining the kids or once the school year starts and then all the craziness of school schedules and activities start up. Hmmm….. having this sinking feeling that’s just how life is going to continue with 3 kids. That just maybe it has nothing to do with the seasons. Yikes. Maybe I’ll stick with thinking any second now life is going to slow down again. Oh wait, we have the holidays coming up and the last 3 months of the year always seem to fly by. So maybe no luck with that one. Anyhow craziness aside this year has been exciting with Maddy starting 1st grade and Logan back at preschool. Sureal for me to think back a year ago right as Maddy was just starting Kindergarten. So many changes, such an exciting time, just days until our little one made her debut. What a difference a year makes. They grow so much. They both are lucky enough this year to ...

Ok so it’s only been about 6 months since I blogged. Not too bad right? How much happens in half a year with 3 kids? While I probably could just say busy, I think at some time I may want to flip back through this journal and have a slight recollection of what was happening. So I suppose I will just highlight a little bit of what each of us has done this summer. Burdean celebrated his 33rd birthday in may, and in June we celebrated 8 years of wedded bliss. Maybe a little more bliss on my end then on yours honey. Thanks for putting up with me for 8 years and pretending that you are loving every minute though. :) Dean has been very busy at work lately with some big changes that have been made. Last month he spent a week in New Jersey to begin managing an office there as well. But hey we aren’t actually moving to New jersey so no complaints here. :) He has also been busy with his calling, rec softball, volleyball, and enjoying lots of summer hanging out with the family. Maddy is ...273 days ago
