Things have been SOOOOO Crazy around here.
The 90 DAYS OF MOM is still in full swing. we had t break for a week because Dad was on vacation..but we have made awesome progress.
Rachel finally finished her reader, Mary is about to catch up with her, Ben Hannah and Caleb have almost finished the years school work. Yep! School in the summer does suck...but I bet you a thousand dollars they remember this next fall.
Caleb has decided against a class ring. He's his own man, and can't see purchasing something he will never wear. Anyone who has seen my closet can tell you that he must get THAT from his father.
Our INS application was FINALLY approved!!!
Happy Happy Joy Joy...oh wait..only AFTER it was denied because our homestudy got there 3 days after the deadline....Did I mention 2 of those days were a Saturday and a Sunday???
But Im thankful...no complaints.
Rebekah has turned two and has decided to run the show...Everybody's Show.
"Rebekah, No!" seems to be the "phrase of the day".
She's got a hard head! A VERY HARD HEAD!
..but she's cute..so whatdoya do?
Adam has had his MRI to see if he is in need of a valve replacement, right now.
We 're waiting on the results before we log in for our next adoption.
I'm sure I do not need to explain to anyone how brutal an adoption right in the middle of open heart surgery recovery would be ...the the newest members AND for Adam.
We may have to hold off on adopting for a while or forever..Only God knows.
We'll see .
Our summer is shaping up to be dubbed "Craziest Summer EVER!". as the children have been signed with various agents and are embarking on Acting, Theatre, and Modeling careers.
No! Im sorry..No "Stage Mom" action here.
This is a hobby for the kids.
We refer to it as our "soccer or baseball team".
I think the kids "Que Sara Sara" attitude is what is making them so popular , right now.
They are having fun..and really.. that is the most important thing.
The kids are spending the day fishing with Dad and I will try to get some pics on when I switch computers.
Hope things are well with everyone in Bloggy land and beyond.
xoxo!

Pardon Me For Bragging!
Ok Im not really bragging...I'm documenting so that my children will see that I REALLY tried to write down EVERYTHING they did.
I did this with Hannah and the Opera House.
and now it is Caleb's turn.
Caleb has never been the kind of kid to use the words "One Day" lightly.
He thinks long and hard before he uses the phrase "One day I'm gonna".
As a matter of fact, I can probably count on one hand the number of times I
have heard him say it -since he started talking.
The very first time I heard this from him, He was 5 years old.
now keep in mind he is the oldest child, so when I say 5..
what I really mean is 12(mentally).
He and I were lying on bean bags in the living room and he was watching Star Wars.
He said, " Mama, Do you know that this is not real? "
"Yes", I said.
"Did you know that Harrison Ford wanted to be Luke Skywalker and the director told him NO!"?
" No", I said, "Who told you that?"
"Daddy..He knows everything about Star Wars. Did you know that Harrison Ford is an Actor?'
"Yes I Do..Why?" I asked.
" Well..One day I am going to be an actor and make a movie", he said.
"Really?! That would be cool- but I thought you said you wanted to be a doctor like Daddy and PawPaw and Uncle Greg" I asked.
" I do", he said. " That's my WORK job... I am going to be an actor for fun!"
Here we are- 12 years later- and this weekend Caleb shoots the first scenes of his very first motion picture .
Low Budget, Non-Union..but still a movie... LIGHTS , CAMERA, ACTION..The Whole 9 yards.
He is pumped and I am proud!
Nothing cooler than being around to see your child have his or her "One Day".
