WOW! My last post was in April? Well I dont think to many people read this so I don't think Im disappointing anyone.
Probably the most exciting things going on in the Higgins House right now are (1) Alivia is potty training (not as easy as I thought she'd be, considering she's been going on the potty since she was 18mths, but I guess since I'm done with diapers now and she in panties all day, she's forgetting to tell me alot, but it's just as much work for me as her and Im not always on top of my game) (2) Hannah and Alivia are now sharing a room. They shared Hannah's room the night of Relay for Life, since Darin and Katy were sleeping in Liv's room and ever since she hasn't wanted to go back to her room. Hannah has had no problem with it either, in fact Hannah doesn't ask to sleep in our room anymore. So last night I made it official and moved Liv's bed into Hannah's room and they were, to put it lightly, very excited about the arrangment. I figure if they are wanting to, I might as well go with it. (3) Hannah has her first T-ball game on Saturday (the first two were cancelled due to rain) and she did pretty good, better than expected considering her shyness. She'll only play one more game, but at least it gave her an idea of what it is, and how to play, and most of all she had fun! No swim lesson's this year because "Mommy" was to slow to get her signed up and they all filled up, but she doesn't really fear the water and can do most of the things they teach them in the lessson anyway.
As far as I'm concered, Im still doing Daycare part-time this summer. Im not as busy as I was during the school year. I call myself more of a drop-in daycare. The girls and I are still pretty free to go and do as we please.
Chris works night 10p to 6a with Monday and Tuesday nights off, so thats his schedule, he sleeps during the day and gets up to be with us around 3p everyday. He's been working alot of over time this summer already, but thats always nice, so that we can do those little summer projects on the house.
We went to Branson for family vacation May 21st-May 27th. It was alot of fun, but it sure wore me out and of course it's more expensive that you plan for........ (Im voting for somewhere cheaper and closer next year, we'll see if Chris goes for it)
We are heading to Swisher/North Liberty the 2nd week of July to visit family!
Other than that we are hanging out here and swimming ALOT!!!!!!
