just another update

Not too much going on here. Tom leaves Thursday very early to fly to Ottawa for four day for Quentin's wedding. Pretty disappointed me and the boys can't go but not much we can do about that now. Money sucks period. I do hope he'll have fun b/c lets face it we sure don't get to go out or do anything fun together, and he pretty much works no stop so I really hope he can have some fun even though I am seriously jealous!

Well it sure now that the Flynn family is going to finally have a girl in the family. Tom's brother Dan just found out that they are having a girl in late September. So I am pretty sure everyone is very excited! So congrats to the two of them I know Genevieve really wanted a girl.

Well we get our windows soon Got the new credit card in the mail so we can pay for them woo hoo just what we need more credit haha. Well at least it will hopefully keep the summer heat out and the winter cold out. Tom and I are really excited to have a working patio door than the windows. So next Thursday they start and I am hoping it will be a one day job but the book Friday too just in case.

Got to get on the ball and get Noah's pre school papers done. he's suppose to start next month. Seem strange starting school in August but the do down here and they get out the beginning of June. It's going to through me off big time since I always think as August as summer since it still is really.

Lucas is starting to walk. Just a few step here and there. Very different from the other two boys. Once the other two took even two steps they were walking the next day none stop but there is no hurry for him to get going fast, well at least I don't think he should hurry. But I have no doubt he'll be going full steam at the end of August for sure.

The boys are in bed and I am just waiting for tom to get home and putting off cleaning...sigh I really wish I had a live in maid or someone to walk behind the boys and Tom to pick up everything they just drop and leave around. But I guess that is what I am here for right. Mom's work never ends. Well should run because nothing will get done if i keep sitting here now will it.

I need to post some new pictures I know but I was hoping to edit some actually but at last I have no time to do that so I will just post the un edit pictures, soon.

what a day

Well Lucas had his 9 month and his %'s are going down a lot now.He is now 29. something % for weight down from 90+% from birth and his height is 78% down also in the high 90%. He is totally one of our kids. So he is 19lbs 8oz and 29 1/4 inches at 9months. He is babbling non stop and I find he is very much like his big brother Noah , right down to expressions and looks. The only think I am not liking very much is since we were all sick last month we are not sleeping that well at all and it is wearing on me. Looks like I will be doing some sleep training again....so so tired. He is just not happy today and is screaming like mad if he's put down and will not sleep, it like he got needles too which he didn't.

Well Noah completely surprised me today...He had to get some needles even a TB skin test for pre-school and he screamed and cried like I never heard before in my life, he even yelled Stop that at the nurse and get it out!!! He has never really cried at all with the needles and I had to pin him down and he cried all the way to the car. He made Lucas and Jonas cry in the injection room. Tom will becoming for his next set of needles which most likely will happen next month I think.(he doesn't have all his needles yet). And he still screaming now and than about his arms which I know are sore but he will for get about it and play and t have all of a sudden remember and he can't lift his arms and screams...long day. Jonas is tired too so he's just hitting and screaming...is there a full moon today?!?!
Well in the dr. office, Jonas started screaming he had to pee so I ran out of the room with Lucas and Jonas to the bathroom down the hall and Noah stayed with the dr and talk her ear off that she was laughing when I got back. She told me he told her all about his birthday and that he is 4 now, he had a bouncy house at his party and he spelled the word Zoo. I didn't even know he knew how to spell that yet but he has been pretty much learning a new word each day I would say, He has duck down, cat,dog, his name, mom, dad, and so many more. He is such a sponge these days and every day I am in a spelling test and it's is getting harder for me b/c he is picking out much bigger words and the English subject is my worst subject and my very weak point sigh.

Well I am still waiting on Lucas's passport to come. I was really hoping it would have been here yesterday. Jonas's passport came in a week but I guess this time around it's not going to happen :S. Still hoping any day now.

Well Tom will be leaving in a little over a week to Ottawa now! Completely and ultimately down in the dumps and I could say depressed to some extent that I can not go with him. I haven't been back to see our friends in Ottawa since we left and what more fun could it be to go back for one of our friends wedding!! Money sucks is all I can say I wonder if I will ever get back there I love that city and our friends! I know it wouldn't be the same life with the boys there but still it suck that I can't go to the wedding too. But tonight I am going to see Deathly Hollows Part 2 I am so excited I an't even express myself. I love the HP movies/books and As well getting a little get away from this day is just what I needed!!! Woo hoo can't wait the movie is going to be awesome!!!!!!

Before and after

Well it not finished but we finally got furniture!!!! Woo hoo. still need like end tables, stuff on the walls but that is not a big thing. We have paint touch ups and well actually you can't see it but the seems of the wall paper under the paint are starting to show and cracking. Not sure when we'll deal with that but now we can sit in this room. I love being able to sit and read in the room and in the winter I can't wait to sit comfy and watch the fire. The boys love the furniture too. I am not sure if these are the pieces we would have picked out if we didn't have the boys with us. I like the look but not sure if they are really comfy. Shopping for furniture with three kids is pretty much not a good thing but what can you do. I figure if we don't end up loving them than well if the family furniture ever breaks these pieces can go in there and than we can get new pieces for the living room but some how I don't think the family furniture will die. hahaha. Anyhow I want a mirror in a white frame over the fireplace and have that wall painted a light blue with the other walls an light cream color I think sort of like the color behind the couch but more yellow than brown it's a very light beige. I have some wall decals to go up like a small tree with birds but not sure if I want to put them up where I know we have to remove the painted over wallpaper(this really bothers me because it is not easy to remove, I think I have ruin the drywall in Lucas room and I worry that we may have to replace the dry wall, which in this house in order to get done mean I have to hire someone to do it, unless there is some crazy person that wants to help me out. haha I was hoping tom and I could put the walls up in the laundry room this summer but I don't think that is going to happen at all. sigh But Hey look at the living room we have furniture :)
