moving and .......streaking?!

As you can see, mom is totally psyched about her knee pads...and dusting her new hardwood floors by hand.....thats my mother folks!!! Believe it or not....this will be a kitchen in a few weeks when the cabinets get in
Jak was happy that his "pider man" aka spider mad bed was at mamaw and papaws new hoooouse

Ashlyn sitting on her my little pony bed taking a break and reading a story before loading her toys onto the truck. I think she has the right idea. Let the men do the work!
Jak was excited to find the grabber thing that mamaw and papaw tried to hide from him....notice the word TRIED
Jak pestering Ashlyn enough to put her book down and take off running away from him
Even Hello Kitty gets a new room!!
Dad putting the couch back together in the new house so we can watch tv and relax for a bit


Today was a great, fun, beautiful family day!!! Jonathan had to work so the kids and I got up early and headed to mcdonalds to get breakfast for mom and dad and head over there to get most of the stuff that was left to move. Desiree and her husband Allen came over and brought my uncle Butch who just had quadruple (I don't think thats spelled right) bypass surgery about a week ago. He couldn't do anything but watch and cheer us on. I think it upset him because he is so used to helping do everything and always doing something. He is healing well and hopefully will be up to par soon.
We got almost everything moved except a few things out of the closets, mainly just clothes, so they are living there. still no kitchen but at least a bathroom and a bedroom. Seth and Hannah came by to play with the kids while Carrie helped us load up the truck. We got to the house and the kids played in the creek and somehow ended up finding a dog to play with. Luckily the dog had a tag so there wasn't the whole "can we keep him issue". good thing!!!

Ok,so to the streaking! I went to the store and got food to cook for everyone and got back to mom and dads house and was standing at the grill when Jak walks out and tells me that he had an accident. I was frustrated until he started to tell me that he had an accident because he was filling up a water jug with water....the sensation then took over i guess (lol). So, hes standing on the deck, I'm standing at the grill trying not to laugh and Jonathan is tellling him to take his clothes off and he will get him a fresh outfit. Jak starts to giggle and takes off running!!! Across the deck, down the stairs, through the side yard and to the front of the house. I am running as fast as I can to try to get ahold him all the while giggling at his little butt cheeks bouncing in the breeze!!!! He got in the truck and I got him out and wrapped my dishtownl around him and carried him back to the house and he took off again!! I just threw my hands up and told Jonathan "Tag you are it!" Needless to say, he ended up putting clothes on after daddy got him. Did I mention that Jak is a fast little runner!!

Very intresting night. Mom and dads neighbors are probably wondering what kind of neighbors are they?! The kids were worn out. They got home, we all got ready for bed and they were out in about 10 minutes! I love spring!

Tomorrow night is the cubbies awards program. I'm so excited that Jak is getting his 1 year award and that Ashlyn will be moving up to Sparks. I can't believe how big they are getting! Time goes by sooooo fast!

Jaks new word, by the way, is "actually" He uses it in almost every sentence. "actually mommy, I not tired, I sleepy" just for example :-)

He also found 2 new worms today...yeah, i'm soooo excited (sarcasm)

Ashlyn is getting closer to Kindergarten. I'm getting more and more nervous but she talks about it at least once or twice a week....before I know it she's going to be in first grade sniff, sniff!

well, jonathan is asleep on the couch and I don't seem to be a bit tired...think I'll sneak away for a trip to meijer. I am looking for ideas for my kitchen :-)
