Pushing onward, if you’re still there! Summer activities are finally winding down, the camping trip was the end, until the youth wanted a lock-in before school. : ) I can’t wait to have a job with one focus area! Speaking of which there are two job openings right now that we are sending in info to, one is in Olympia, WA, and the other is in Monroe, WA, both are around 1000-1500 people so we’ll see. Be praying for the right position, whether it’s these or not, but hopefully soon? Travis is going to be recording a couple of the songs he’s written. There is a radio contest going on that he’s entering, so there’s a possibility that his songs could be on the radio, cool? The baby is close, though not quite close enough! The ‘due date’ is September 17th, but I’m hoping earlier (because I’m tired of being pregnant). I’m actually shooting for the 1st of September, then we would have 5 birthdays in a row—Jeremiah, Cousin Daniel, Uncle Dustin, New Baby and Aunt Brianna, Aug. 29th to Sept. 2nd! Good plan, right? Well, anyway it goes, it’ll go. Ugh, this waiting is worse than the others—it’s like the last 2 weeks on a job, they seem to go by so slowly! I have Preschool stuff to prepare. I’m starting Preschool with Jeremiah and Lilly and don’t have nearly enough done! Though we did clear out the back room for an education room! But of course it still has a ways to go, and that means we’re transitioning Jeremiah and Isaiah to the same room. It hasn’t been too bad, except when Isaiah isn’t asleep at night time we put Jeremiah in our room to fall asleep—however, if it’s hot in the house our room is the only cool one, so I roast! Or they keep each other awake until 9ish, argh. Alright, enough boring, wordy stuff, here are the pictures. Random ones that didn’t fit the other categories, but were too cute not to post:
In July I watched our friend’s two girls, Heidi and Clara, we got a picture of all five kids
Jeremiah and Travis found a HUGE beetle in a piece of firewood. Yes, it was already dead and here is Jeremiah pretending to eat it! We’re not sure what it is, a June bug perhaps?
An updated picture of all three kids…they don’t all have to be looking or even happy, right? And shoes on the right feet would be too much!
We took Jeremiah’s training wheels off just to have fun and see what would happen. He actually did really well, however he couldn’t quite remember to pedal he was too excited.
Jeremiah with Diesel. The dog does NOT like to be alone and howls and whines all day (thankfully he’s stopped at night).
Lilly with Diesel. She loves the thing. As does Isaiah who calls him what comes out as ‘DC.’
We had a yard sale last weekend, this is Jeremiah and Lilly taking a nap because they were so bored! Jeremiah had been using the blue bat as a pillow!
Isaiah just being funny!
They love their daddy! Isn’t he so strong?!?
Strong man Jeremiah—we went peach picking. Picked 89.5 lbs of peaches, learned not to let me pick any (I apparently can’t tell which ones are ripe enough and thus the skins do NOT come off for canning). We canned 41 jars, broke two, froze four bags of slices for smoothies, and dehydrated one dehydrator full. I can’t believe I have so many peaches!! Yummy.
The End, though I’m sure I missed something I was going to post.
