Keeping busy
Posted By Melanie on August 19, 2010
I have not made a post in a while. I have been keeping busy, or at least trying to. I have made 4 dozen cupcakes for my sister’s bridal shower, made 3 little outfits for Cailey, a tutu for Cailey, made adjustments to one of my skirts, made myself a new skirt, & made 2 pillows for the kids.

I usually will get to talk to Brett through online instant messaging daily, even if only for a couple minutes. He has been really busy with work, online classes, and his 7 level training. Its nice to be busy, but its exhausting him.
The kids are well. Colvin starts first grade tomorrow, and no he’s not excited, my impression is that to him its another day. 
We are working on riding bikes with no training wheels, we started today, and plan to continue through the week. Not sure how long it takes to teach something like that, he seems to do alright, so hopefully it won’t take long. We are also working on tying shoe laces, thats not going as well as bike riding.
Cailey, now 18 months old, is being her little self. She is enjoying the attention she is getting from everyone. She is learning well how to bat her eyes and smile pretty to try and get the attention she wants. She has an 18 month checkup next week, so we will see how much she has grown!
Well its been a long day, so I am signing off for now. Today we have been to Dariy Queen, two playgrounds, Walmart, Casey’s gas station to clean out the car and also the bike riding, that alone wore me out, LOL! 
I am also uploading some photos in the July – December 2010 album for you to view as well!!
