I haven't been a very good blogger lately. We have had a bunch of things going on and the kids have just spent all my energy that by night time, I just want to sit in front of the tv and eat my ice cream, ALL BY MYSELF!! As you can tell by the pics above, we have 6 new additions to our family. Once again we have a litter of kittens. Cute as they are, they could have lightened someone else's door step. Olivia is like a mother hen with them and has built several new "houses" for them with doors and all. Logan loves them also, but wants to grab them by the neck or ears. OUCH! He's now not aloud to hold them and it drives him crazy. Doesn't help either that his sister taunts him with them. He tries, but he's got not self control not to squeeze!
Along with other first this year, this was Olivia & logan's first wedding. See we don't have a regular sitter for the kids, so we chose to take them with us.......Note to self: FIND A BABYSITTER.........Olivia wasn't so bad, she was just excited about everything. Logan wanted to dance his life away. Ok, before you all go "well what's wrong with that", please remember we are dealing with a almost 2yo. and the reception didn't start until 7:30pm. (BTW...it was rich's cousin Tara and new husband Jason that got married and oh so cute they are together. They got married at the beach and then had their reception here.) Ok, so I was thinking Logan wouldn't be that big of a deal b/c he would play shy to everyone and hang on my leg like everywhere else we go, right?? Of course not! It was hard keeping him off the dance floor when he needed to be (example: Father/Daughter dance) yeah, you get where i'm going with this. There were other kids there also, so that was fun for them. Key the music, Logan is also in a "stage" of hitting people and kids in the face...........LOVELY! So what do you suppose he did every time he got close to a girl his size.........you guessed it. I couldn't really drink, although I'm thinking I really should have and everything would have just been funny, but the drinks weren't tasting all that good to me, probably since I'm outta practice. We could just chalk that up to God simply saying, "No, you will be totally coherent to chase these children", punishment at it's worst. So all in all, it went well. Olivia got to dance and dance with Logan. We left at 11pm, had to force Logan in his car seat, as he was exhausted and wanted to stay longer, kids in bed.........nobody slept in the next morning....................to be continued

I did get to pawn my children for a bit off on Aunt Melinda!!
