Today is our last day in Forest Creek, until the fall. I keep thinking about how this will be the last time that I am here as the mom of 2 kids. Next time we are here I will have the new babe! I think that it is exciting and scary all at the same time. I can’t wait to hold and see the new little one, but at the same time I am fearful of how I will be able to handle all 3! The thought of traveling with 3 seems overwhelming. I don’t really think I could do it by myself. But, who knows. Before I had Ian I thought that I couldn’t travel alone with 2, and now I have done it many times and it isn’t that big of a deal. I am hoping that happens again…..

Today is Memorial Day, but it really doesn’t seem like a holiday at all. It just seems like any other day. The kids have been LOVING the pool here! It is a fantastic pool for kids. It is a zero depth pool that goes to about Ian’s waist. It is a BIG kiddie pool, but the best part is that it has a fence around it and the kids can’t even get to the big pool. It has been fun, but I didn’t want to go again today. We have been the last 5 days in a row. I needed a break

I have had a fun trip, but I am ready to get back home. I am REALLY ready to see our landscaping start and see how the project will turn out. I can’t wait for it to be done, and to see how much it changes the look of our house. I think it will be awesome to be able to use our back yard. The kids will love it when we put in the play ground, so I am looking forward to that too.

Emma only has 2 more days of school left. I can’t believe that the year is over! It seems like yesterday that I was taking pictures of her on her first day of school. I saw some pictures of her at school the other day, and I couldn’t believe how much she has grown and changed. I put her uniform shorts on her and I could see a HUGE difference. At the beginning of the year they were huge in the waist, and they were so long. Last week they fit, just like shorts should

I am excited to get Ian’s room all set up, but nervous about the transition to a big boy bed. It is so nice to be able to put him into his “tent” and know that he is contained and that he can’t get out. I know that it is going to take some effort to get him to stay in his new bed, but his new room is going to look so cute I was thinking about painting, but since he may be moving rooms, I am going to wait.

Both kids are sleeping, so I should go take advantage and get a nap myself. Tomorrow we are taking the early flight, and have to get up at the crack of dawn!
