We had big plans for today, but the rain has definitely put a damper on them. We were all going to our friends house to swim. They have a beautiful swimming pool. We were going to swim for a few hours, have the kids take a nap and then have a cookout at Jeremy's mom and dad's house. We were also going to have the 4 grand kids picture taken outside today. It has rained all morning and it looks like there will be scattered storms all day. So, we are just hanging out at the house and will head over to Gran and Papa's later for a cookout (if it is not raining).

 We had a good day yesterday. After church and lunch we all took a long nap and then we went to Gran and Papa's to visit with the family. Samuel and his cousin, Austin, had a blast. We laughed that Jeremy's mom would have to take a nerve pill after we left. Sam and Austin (who is almost 3) ran through the house yelling and jumping around. They were crazy. Andrew (who is 9 months old) slept most of the time and Emma fell asleep at about 8:30. We were imagining how crazy it will be at Christmas when Emma and Andrew will be running around and hopefully Chloe will be home. Gran and Papa may have to add on another room for the grand kids. They will have 5 grand kids under the age of 4 years old. We got tickled at Sam because Austin is not potty trained yet and Sam thought he was going to teach him how to use the potty. You can just image the conversation between them in the bathroom. We were all up late last night but my kids were up at 6:30 this morning. They sleep so much better when they are on their regular schedule. They were up early and I had to get up with both of them in the night. Well, I am going to try and get the kids down for a nap in case the weather clears up later for us to go swimming.
