Kindergarten Screening
Kindergarten screening went great! I was so proud of Bronson. He knew all of his letters except for Q and Y. He didn't recognize the numbers 9 & 10 either. He knew all of his colors. He knew his shapes except for the triangle. I told him a triangle looked like a tent but he still didn't get it. Oh well, we can't expect him to ready for Harvard! He had trouble with rhyming. When they did problem solving with him on what do you do about a dark room he said"don't go in there" and what do you do if you break something he said "spanking". Yep we beat our kids if they break something:) Not really but we must threaten them really good. LOL! He was able to tie his shoes 100%, so GO BRONSON! Anyhow, this doesn't make our decision for us on whether or not to send him to Kindergarten. Jared still wants to wait. We will just have to wait and see who wins this battle until after summer school. N0 matter what our decision is he still did great!

Grandma Margie's Baptism
This is Grandma Margie getting baptized.
This is right after.Bronson wanted to know if Grandma Margie was going to have to take her clothes off to get baptized in the bathtub. It is so funny what kids think and wonder about. What it would be to be a child again:)
The 3 BS's
What a beautiful day! I am so glad to see the sun shining.
It was a good, busy, but lo key weekend. Jared dug Vance and Andrea's basement this weekend. That was fun and interesting. If you haven't checked out Andrea's blog to see the wonderful pictures of me in my "boots", then you need to. Yesterday my grandma got baptized. That was such a wonderful thing to experience. It isn't everyday that someone gets to witness the baptism of your 83 year old grandma. Very moving! Then we had cake and ice cream for my counsin Amber's little girl Mayci who turned 2!
Braxton is going to get 40 more egg laying chickens. So if you need eggs give us a call! He is so excited to have his Egg Laying Business:) He has it all figured out on how much he should make a week minus the feed. I think it is great for a 9 year old to have some kind of repsonsibility. Braxton had 2 baseball practices this weekend. He did some pitching on Sat and he hit someone. At least we got that out of the way! I am sure it will happen lots more.
Bronson has Kindergarten screening tonight. I am kind of nervous because I want him to do good to prove to Jared that he is ready. I will let everyone know tomorrow how he does. Bronson wanted to stay at Colby's Sat night so I told him he could. When I got home Andrea was there to get him some clothes and Bronson looked up at her with big ole' tears and said he wanted to stay home with his Mommy. That just makes me so happy:) He was tired and needed me! I was sitting with him in my lap and I asked him why he wanted to stay at home and he told me "because I love you mommy." Doesn't that just make tears come to your eyes? Just when you think they like their dad more b/c they want to be with him all the time they say something like that to make up for all the jealousy issues you have!
Braylon was his usual ornery self over the weekend. He was really good all day Sat for being couped up in a vehicle watching his daddy dig. He decided to throw up again last night. IMAGINE THAT! This time though was not on purpose. He had ate a little bit and drank some lemonade and then we sat down for supper and he took 2 bites and threw up everywhere. Normally he waits until I have a couple of bites left but last night I had just sat down. So what a way to ruin an appetite.

Gotta love your children although they get on your nerves!
Braylon and I are clashing today! He was a grouch the minute he got up this morning. WHINE, WHINE, WHINE! When I was watching the kids at daycare for a little while this morning he was in trouble 3 times. I put him in the corner and when I looked at him he was acting like he was going to throw up. Which this is his new thing now when he gets into trouble, because he know that I am going to pick him up and take him to the stool or sink so I don't have clean it up. So what do I do? Let him throw up all over the place and then punish myself by having to clean it up or do what I have been doing? It isn't like you can have a 2 year old clean up his own puke.
Bronson's practice went really good last night. I was very impressed.
Braxton's team did good too. I think Jared is getting stressed a little bit. He is ready to find out what position these kids are going to play and the other coach has the kids in different places than Jared thinks they need to be. Guess they will just have to work this one out on their own.
Thank god it is Friday! This week has been so stinkin slow. Jared is digging Vance and Andrea's basement tomorrow. Andrea is so excited. Braxton has practice tomorrow for his Lancaster team and then practice on Sunday for his Memphis team. My grandma Margie is getting baptized on Sunday too. I am so happy for her. She is in her 80's and is nervous and ready.
Hope everyone has a great weekend and I will blog on Monday.

Mama and her Chicks
My dad took this picture last night. These are the egg laying chickens. I am smiling and talking at the same time. Imagine me talking:)
Sunny Days
I love sunny days! I was really worried that it was going to rain today, but I think it is going to hold off until after midnight. Braxton and Bronson both have practice tonight. We will be at the ball fields from 5:15 to 8 ish. What about supper?? I guess we will just eat when we get home. That is the only thing I don't like about it staying light later. We never eat until 8.
I weighed today! I have lost 33 lbs altogether. I seem to gain 2 lbs on the weekends then lose it by Thursday. I may need to work on my eating habits on the weekends. Who can eat good when they are never home? How come you can gain 2 lbs in 2 days and then it takes you 4 days to lose it? I don't get it......
Braxton got him some egg laying chickens last night. He is so excited for them to lay eggs. We had to check on them last night before we went to bed and then he was up at 5:45 to go check this morning. Wonder why he doesn't get up that early for school? Once they lay their first eggs for Braxton I will post some pics. Bronson told Emma last night about the new chickens. He told her that they laid their eggs from their butt cracks. Emma thought that was gross b/c they might have poop in them. I told her that all those eggs she eats come from a chickens butt. She thought that was funny. I am sure her mom has filled her in on this before but coming from Bronson made it funny:)
