Car Wash

This last week the kids and I decided to wash Curt's old work car (He has the old DM's car out there and the new DM gets his).
What fun! :O) They did pretty good, but did notice some spots where they were washing it and it got missed! Who cares, let the new DM re-wash it! :O)
That nite I didn't put the bucket or the brush/sponge away. Opps... There was a little bit of water still left in the bottom of the bucket too. I did put the hose away in the garage.
The next day I let the kids out to play outside. When I went out to check on them, here they had the hose hooked back up to the faucet, the bucket was FULL of water and leftover soap, and the back of the van is soapy and wet. (By the way, the van is still in the garage!) I said uh guys, what are you doing? (Of course, Kotah claims it was ALL Gavin and Sklyar, but I know the truth! ;oP) Gavin said, we wanted the van to be sparkly and clean like Daddy's old car! We wanted to help you mommy!
How can I resist that? So I said, well guys, first of all, the van is still in the garage, you don't wash cars or vans when they are in the garage! And second, you need mommy to help you guys. We will do it another day, ok? So we unhooked the hose, got that put away and emptied the bucket and put it away as well. Oh I did have to hose the back of the van off!
So if you think you see us, and you notice the whole van is dirty EXCEPT the back, you know it is our van!!!! :O)

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
