Hello all!
We are all a mess at our house. We are in the process of putting on a new roof. It is so loud during the day poor Brad can't hardly take a nap. The crew we have are really hard workers they have been here scence Tuesday and will probably finish on this next Tuesday. It will look so nice when they are done. They are putting on a membrane roofing system that is white so it will reflect the sun and be more energy efficent. We also had thicker insulation put down that will help with cooling and heating costs. We have also had trouble with our car, we found that the altinator is shot, so we have been playing musical truck while that is out of commision. I love getting up at 3:30am to take brad to work! Okay that was a lot of exageration. But it is nice to spend some time together early in the morning.
Zack is doing well. He has been such a good helper around the house. He is so proud of himself that he has chors and that he can clean the toilet. He askes me almost every day if there is any chors he needs to do. It is so cute and you know I am not going to stop him. Our neighors have been out of town and they have chickens. So we have been caring for them and Zack has made it his job to remind me every night that we have to go collect the eggs. We had his cousin over and hewanted to show his him that he could catch and hold a chicken, and if he wanted Zack would catch one for him. Way cute! Brings a tear to my eye just thinking of the special spirit that has yet to join us and have the privelage to be Zack's little sibling. They will be so well cared for they will be begging to be left alone and be independent.
Well on that subject I was really sick the first of May so I had to change my dr apt but I am going in Aug with a new temp chart that they are having me do. We are so blessed with Zack that sometimes I feel silly even asking for more but, I can't stand to think that Zack won't be a big brother. I have spoken with a few friends that have adopted and I am heavly thinking of that option if we are not pregnant by Jan 09. Well that is the news of the week I am going to be better at writing more consistantly.

June already!
WOW! Can you believe it is June already? I sure can't, Zack will be out of school in three days! I had to change my work schedule to stay at home with Zack, until Brad gets home at noon. Then I will work till 6 or 7. He is so excited to have almost 100 days of no school! I am trying to think of fun things for him to do to keep him busy and his mind stimulated. I do not want him to sit infront of the tv playing the Wii all summer. We plan to go to the dinosaur park this year and camp tonz as we have not gone much the last two years.
In my last blog I spoke of the wall that I was getting for my birthday, I LOVE IT! my yard looks so nice and trim now. I can't wait until my garden is grown and producing. I still have the stupid birds to deal with they already ate half of what I planted! Stupid birds! I will have to do cages every year until the plants are big enough. Spaking of the birds, Drake has found a new pasion..bird hunting the dog is on CRACK! When we let him out he FLY'S thru my garden and to the cinder blick wall where the birds nest and stalks them all day. He may trample my plants but if he gets those stupid birds then he wont be in as much trouble.
Spring has brought us such nice suprizes. I got my i-pod for mothers day, my wall for my birthday, and brad and I just bought a new bed set that is really nice. We needed a new mattress and one that would be good for brads back. So off to crown bed rooms we went. We had thought about a new set but we were going to wait. Well untill I set my sights on this set. I wanted it from moment I saw it, and with the sale I had to get it. We got a really nice mattress as well that Brad loves. After getting out of bed even hours later you can still remember how comfy it is, how it feals. ahhh!
If you haven't heard we thought we had a baby on the way! But with more complications we are not pregnant. I changed doctors and am seeing a specialist to see what we can do. I am going later this month.
Well I had better get back to the grind. Talk to you soon!
