Friday Thankfuls (EARLY)

We are leaving for a mini vacation tomorrow so I won't be able to post until Monday. I will take tons of pictures for sure. Where are we going?

We are headed down to Lake Seminole to a friends lake house. We have a ton planned and I will just try and keep up. Oh, yeah and we are getting the ghetto car window in tomorrow morning too. I am thankful for both these two things. The one thing I am most thankful for is only by miracle the Chief is going too, for the WHOLE time! I swear that man never takes time off and I am so glad he will be with us. It will be great to get away for a while.

I will blog to you later...have a great weekend!

The Doodlebugs Make the Paper!

The Jenkins crew made the local paper for a "Beat the Heat" entry! (well, three out of four did) I had forgotten I had submitted it,until the Chief opened the paper and said "Why are my kids in the paper?" Anyway,it's kinda cute!

Friday Thankfuls...

So I thought I would try something new. So you have to post something every Friday stating what you are grateful for. It can be funny, serious, thoughtful, dedicating whatever it is you are feeling. I will start.

Today as I rolled (literally) out of bed and stood up I realized that at 7 months pregnant I am doing o.k. on the weight gain issue. I am please to announce that my knees are still NOT touching each other! For this, I am thankful. Yeah, me!

Ema and "Jake"

So lately Doodlebug #3 has been calling her brother "Jake", o.k. yeah, see his name is Gunner. Anyway, she does and he answers to her. Why we aren't really sure. So here is a video of her and "Jake dancing, this is Doodblebug #3's favorite pastime besides singing. The two are really starting to show the mear 14 month gap between them are truly great friends and companions.

And, yes I do see my sons attempt at a "Plie" with three sisters what do you expect?

Down in the GHETTO!

So on Monday the girls and I were unloading groceries and Doodle Bugs went to close the back of the truck up and you have to close it like a puzzle on side then the other THEN the glass. So what sounded like a small gun shot was the back of my truck window. No injuries to report, thank God.

Although, I am now driving the "ghetto" car, until it is fixed!

Na, na, na, na,na, na, na, na hey, hey, goodbye...to $500 dollars!

This is the tally since the doodlebugs were born:

#1 D.B.- Excursion window

#2 D.B.- Excursion window, 4 pairs of Daddy's glasses, 5 disc surround sound dvd player, cut own hair, near 'bout severed finger and two surgeries

#3 D.B.- ceiling fan bulbs on back porch, flooded toilets, dozen eggs on couch (on daddy's watch), cut own hair,

#4 D.B.- ball through coffee table, fist through window, swinging on rear view mirror (total loss), art work throughout the house, flooded toilets, dozen eggs on couch (on daddy's watch), stitches in head

A Camping We Will Go!

The Chief decided to have a camp out with the doodlebugs, so I made chili for dinner and he was in charge of smoores, except we had no marsh mellows...so microwaved chocolate later my doodlebugs looked liked this!

Yum, Yum!

Then Daddy made a great tent using every blanket possible in the house!

AHHHHH! Sleep.... finally!

I am gonna hold these pictures of proof that "Yes, your Mommy and Daddy were fun once."

What's mine is yours?

I woke up on Sunday morning to this...

Three little doodlebugs in my bed....but where is Daddy?

Found him! Poor Daddy, had to resort to sleep on the bunk bed just to get some rest.

The Chief said he gave up at some point during the night...sorry honey!
