I really am bad at this.

I know it has been forever since I last posted *even after I promised to try harder* But alas tis finals season:)
Michael has been in need of the computer every night for the past 3 weeks and since I don't get on-line until the crazies are asleep the means I'm out of luck.
Things have been good around these parts. We are still working hard to deal with challenges we are facing and I think we may have gotten some of the kinks smoothed. We decided it has been a blessing Michael has not needed to focus on work this semester. He needed the time to figure out how to study again:)
I was felling VERY torn the past few months on whether or not I should work. Michael has strong feeling I should not and realistically I didn't have all these babies to have someone else raise them 40 hrs a week. After some prayerful thought we decided I nee to go back to school. So this fall I'll be a student again:) I'm excited and nervous. But really there will be no better time than now.
Kk got into the charter school near our home and I am so excited. She has been pretty bored the past 2 years at the public school and I'm happy to have something to push her academically. She is not so thrilled about wearing a uniform but Michael and are! This little diva focuses too much effort and time on what she is wearing(and all her friends)and I am happy to change that. She is loving piano since we switched to Grandma Great as her teacher...and grandma is loving it as well. She also decided she LOVES dance now. There were a few weeks where she really hated it but I think she has learned to push through the hard things. I am so happy she is such a good kid!
The Cage is as crazy as ever! She is talking so much more everyday. She is such a kidder also. She will do anything for a reaction...good or bad. *Cox & Griffee's-does this remind you of anyone you know?* She is a funny little ball of energy. This crazy kid no longer will take a nap:( The upside is by bedtime she's wiped:)
Buddha is getting bigger and bigger. I actually have started having people ask me if he and Cage are twins. He refuses to crawl-he tried it for a day but it was slower than the army crawl he has mastered so he flopped back to the belly. He will climb on anything! He will also climb over, under, & through everything in his way.
Well that was much longer than I intended & those babies wake early-ish ;-)
The Cage showing me her "surprised face"!
Buddha had Vampire teeth for a while:)
