OK, I'm posting!

OK, I was told that I don't blog much, so I needed to add something. However, I have misplaced my compac flash for my camera so I won't be able to add any photos until I find it, which may be after school gets out!
Austin is busy playing baseball and learning how to become a true "tween" He seems to be getting that 'mouth' on him, and getting grounded more frequently and having those "games" etc. taken away! I think he's ready for school to be out, as we all are. Piano is about to come to an end. He just doesn't have the drive to practice anymore and I'm not paying $20 per lesson for him to play the same songs over and over because he refuses to memorize them (or says he can't)! He wants to take band next year. His instrument of choice is either trumpet or drums/percussion. So, we'll see how that turns out! He will be going to Kanakuk Kamp the last week of June. He's looking forward to it and I hope he will be able to get a lot out of it, bring it back and carry it with him as he matures. He was sick today with fever headache and stomach ache. He was at school until about noon today, when the fever came.
Cameron is becoming quite the communicator. He definitly has the gift of gab. He's learning great stuff at his school and tells me about it every day. He will be taking swimming lessons starting in June and I think we might be able to do some t-ball for most of the season before he has to do visitation with his dad. Both are through the Y here and are good programs. We still don't know about when he will be with his dad this summer.
We welcomed a new neice/cousin on April 23, Caroline, she looks a lot like her sister! Cameron and I got to see her after she was just a few hours old! She's a cutie!
Not much else going on here, we're ready for school to be out, our last day is June 4 (I'm supposed to go June 5) and that seems like a late day for school to be getting out, I guess since we started in AR, but TX started about 8-10 days later, we really are going longer this year since we get out later doen here in TX, it seems like this year has been really long! Lots of changes went on this past year, but now that we're more settled I think things will be better, heck, they already are!

About Me

Austin is my oldest son. He loves most sports with a ball (especially baseball and football), used to take taekwondo, used to play the piano (when forced to practice), now plays the trombone,and is a very good chess player. I could go on and on here, but needless to say, I'm pretty proud of all his accomplishments. If this is what he does now, I can't wait to see what his future holds! My younger son is Cameron. He's 4 going on 30. His life is full of admiring his older brother, trying to be just like him, but also pestering him just as Austin pesters him. Cameron loves to eat and never misses a meal. He is into trains, trucks, just about any vehicle that he can "drive" or push as fast as he can go, likes to watch Little Einsteins, Barney, Spiderman, Stuart Little, and has now joined the Harry Potter club. He is also trying to see how far he can push my buttons. I think that is a normal 4 year old thing, maybe???
