May has seemed to pass in a blur. Earlier this month John and I went on a quick trip to NYC to go to Brett's college graduation from NYU. What a great time we had. Brett showed us some of the neat NYC sights and we had a great time visiting with him, John's parents and sister Cindy. Brett's graduation was at the new Yankees Stadium and it was really neat to see it (although I think John would have loved to get to see a game there as well!)
After our quick trip we got home and with in 15 minutes Annie had fallen on the trampoline and broken her arm. She ended up needing orthopedic surgery that night to have her arm reset and pins put in, she had broken off the end of her tibia and it was floating down below her elbow.
She was such a trooper. She was more worried that she was going to need a shot than if it hurt or not. She wore her splint for 10 days and now she is in the next cast. She wears this one for another 2 weeks then she will have the pins taken out and be in another cast for 4 to 6 weeks depending on how it is healing.
Right now she has a very cool pink & green stripped cast with green glitter, who knew that casts could be such a fashion statement!
Well the rest of the month has gone by in a blur it seems... baseball is over this week and both kids and John had a great time. Charlie finishes first grade tomorrow. It has been amazing to watch him this year, we are so proud of him! He has learned so much, he is doing great in math and I am always so happy when I hear him read something to me. He is so sweet and will now read stories to his sisters! Annie is excited to know that next fall when Charlie goes back to school she will be there for kindergarten. Audrey is getting so big as well. This morning I had one of those moments when I turned and she seemed so big all of a sudden. She is our little ham and loves to make us all laugh!
We have started some home improvement jobs. We painted our master bedroom & bathroom. We are having the carpet ripped out in the bathroom and tile put in tomorrow! We will post pictures when it is all done but I love the colors!
And yes, to top it all of the new ticker on the side of the blog is right, we are expecting #4! I am feeling pretty yucky these days and just want to curl up in bed. The kids had been really concerned why I have been so sick. Charlie would come into the bathroom and tell me daily that I need to go to the doctor because I am throwing up so much something has to be wrong. We told the kids last weekend and they all have been pretty sweet about it. Annie wakes up everyone morning and puts her hand on my tummy to see if she can feel it yet. Charlie told me this morning when he was curled up on my lap that he can hear the baby and Audrey is sure she has a baby in her tummy also!
Hopefully as summer is here I will feel better soon and we can all enjoy a nice lazy summer!
