Whew! What a day! The boys got up at their appointed time this morning: 6:45. The tacked up beach towels hanging over the windows couldn't even trick them into sleeping late. Day three of healthy breakfast went over well enough, if you consider Calvin's claim that I "make yucky pancakes," a compliment. Which I do.
I wish that it wouldn't have rained today. This lousy summer so far has me totally bummed. I had envisioned me and the little ones sitting by the edge of the pool already. Instead we made our father's day homemade gifts, which included: 2 original painting, and a custom-made hat (with pictures of Mario, Wario, DK, and Yoshi taped to it, AND some fake hair hanging out of the back). Then I tortured the boys by making them clean out from under their beds. I threatened to throw away toys. Then I threw away some toys. Then they cried. Then we all felt better after lunch.
Naptime/Mommy time was wonderful. I spent every moment paying bills and filing papers. My favorite!!! It was all butterflies and rainbows until I found out that someone had stolen my identity. And let's be honest, why wouldn't you want to steal my identity???? I'm awesome! I just wish that they had done a thorough job and stolen and paid all of my bills, made dinner, and finished the laundry.
I saw Aubri's new baby today. He is beautiful, and it made me excited to hold my new baby that is coming soon. I want to name him Lucas Cruze Shafer. Noah is not sold on that name, but I bet we will agree on something.
Much Love Until Next Time,
Katie

I love that name! If we have another boy, we want his middle name to be Hardy.
We tried garbage bags over the windows, plus blinds and brown curtains, and it didn't work. Then, my kids were kind enough to clue me in that it was actually our neighbor starting his truck and leaving for work at 6:30 in the morning that was waking them up. So glad there's nothing I can do!
really? someone stole your identity??? on a lighter note, what a lovely name for a third little son! --mom, cathy, mimaw
You are the first person I know to have their identity stolen. How did it happen and how did you find out??
Wow! You got a lot done in one day. I like Lucas Cruze Shafer for the baby. Please don't tell me the choice might come down to rock, scissors, paper - you know the Cruzes aren't lucky!
Wowza. I know it doesn't help, but your comedic presentation of your hardships really made me laugh.
Would you call him Lucas or Luke? There's a lot of Lukes around Emma's age.
I was going to say the same thing as Becky, how did you find out? Good work on getting everything else done.
First of all L-O-V-E the name. Second of all, healthy breakfast's changed my children's lives, and third, it was me, I stole your identity. I'll give it back when you come to visit me.
