It's been forever since I wrote anything. I think from now on I'm going to come up with a topic and just write. That way I'll have to do it everyday!!
So much has happend since the last time...Aaron is working, Morgan had her birthday, Halloween, Thanksgiving. I'll add pics later, I'm not at home right now so I don't have any files.

Wow, it's been over a month since I posted an entry!! Since then, it seems as though my world is collapsing around me!! So, what's happened since the end of August?
Madison's 3rd birthday was August 30th. She got a "Princess Castle" cake.
Ryan's 2nd birthday was September 18th. He got a "Lego" cake.
We went to the zoo for the second time this year. St. Francis had their annual Zoo Day which is really fun. All alumni and their families can get in at a discounted rate and have lunch etc. The kids got their faces painted and got to meet "Johnny Cougar".
Speaking of St. Francis, the football team broke their 54 game (8 years!!), regular season winning streak last week, with a loss to Ohio Dominican. Chances are, we'll see them again in the playoffs!!
Aaron took a job with Banker's Life and Casualty, selling insurance and Medicare supplements. It's strictly commission which is why my world seems to be collapsing!! There is alot of stress when there's no money coming in. However, we're very confident that he will be successful at it and we've put it all in God's hands.
Well that's about all of the important things. Morgan's first birthday is right around the corner and of course Halloween. Hopefully it won't be another month 'til my next post!!

Mogan
Since I don't have any pictures of Morgan on the blog, I decided to post for the second time today, just so I could put a picture of her up. I really wanted to add to a video but I can't get that to work. Oh well, here she is!! She's just learning to get around and trying to stand up. She's doing really well. I sometimes feel 
really bad for her because the other two kids try to pull her and move here. She's probably thinking, "Would you people leave me alone? I want to walk!!!"So cute!!!!!
Ahhhhh, Sweet Procrastination
Ok, admit it, you know there has been a time in your life (if not everyday like me!) that you know you need to do something and you just keep putting it off. This is the story of one such times...
A couple of weeks ago, Aaron and I took the kids to visit his parents in Huntington. The van was getting low on gas so I told myself we would just get some when we got back to Fort Wayne (50 miles later). Usually when my "Low Fuel" light comes on I've got at least 60-70 miles before I MUST get gas. When we got home, my sister Mary called me to see if I wanted to go to the hospital to see Tim's (our brother) new baby. Of course I wanted to, who wouldn't. I told her that I needed to get gas but that we'd probably be fine until we got to the gas station by the hospital. This would not be a problem if you don't make any additional stops on the way!!! Mary wanted to stop by a friend's house and pick up some movies, which we did. It was only about 5 minutes (and 1 mile) out of our way. So, we're driving along and sure enough as you've probably already figured out, we run out of gas, LESS THAN 1 MILE FROM THE GAS STATION!!! I was completely embarrassed, but not Mary, she jumped out of the van and started pushing it while I steered. I turned into the gas station and had to get up a hill, which I couldn't because as everyone knows you can't coast UP hill. There happened to be a really nice kid out changing the trash bags in the parking lot. He looked at me and I said "You need to come over here and help us." He already knew that, he was already walking toward us. The attendant inside the building had the nerve to tell Mary that she looked tired when she came in to buy a water!! He was kidding of course!! So, it was so histerical and yet so humiliating all in one!! Let that be a lesson to you all, don't procrastinate!!!!

Rain Rain Go Away...
I can't believe it's been a week since I posted anything!
The rain this week has really made a mess of the plans we had for the kids.
We were supposed to go to a baseball game on Sunday, that got completely rained out (we're going Friday instead). We ended up going to Chuck E Cheese instead, the kids just love that place. Madison finally figured out how to go down the slide to get out of the "jungle gym". She figured it out so well that I couldn't get her to stop! I fell way behind on using my tokens because I was standing there watching her for so long.
Monday we were supposed to go to the zoo, needless to say that didn't happen either, RAIN!! We went to the mall instead. We had to ride on the carousel, which Ryan loved. That's only his second time riding.
