My famous person....CASEY TIBBS, MY BROTHER-IN-LAW! My famous Olympic Medalist brother-in-law. Well, he was nominated for an ESPY award....and won! Male Athlete w/a Disability of the Year. He and my sister were driven in a limo to and from LA/Hollywood for the awards, given the all-star treatment, got those goody bags all the celebs get. All the cool stuff. They met and saw all these famous athletes and some other celebs too. They had a great time, and I must say, Robyn had a beautiful dress for the Red Carpet. They had a great time, and congratulations Casey! Like I say, it pays to have only one leg! hahahaha. Check out their blog for pics.
CONGRATS CASEY!

Month of July
Well, I must say, life has gotten so much busier then I imagined. Not too much time to just sit down to do nothing. By the time I can sit, I just want to sleep! My time is going fast!!! One minute it's Monday and the next it's Sunday and I can't remember what I did the whole week!
I didn't realize it was the end of July already, and then I got an e-mail for extreme registration at school and realized that still needed to register for classes for the fall, and not only that, but school started for me on the 13th, NOT the 31st! So, I'm rushing to register, find daycare, and money to pay for it all!
Anyway, aside from being busy, the kids and I are mostly at home. We have a pool that occupies a lot of our time in this terribly hot weather. Our friends come over often to enjoy the cool water too! Kyle is doing great, swimming to me and jumping off the diving board and swimming some more...but I think his favortie thing to do is to really get out of the pool, wrap up in his towel and lie on the lounge chair. It's the cutest thing.
Joshua can do with or without the pool. He has fun now sitting in his floatie, but mostly he likes to explore the outdoors.
For the 4th of July we had a great time. We had our friends the Hedgecock's and Friginal's over for a dinner and pool party, the kids loved it and then the Sheldon's came for more swimming, dessert and fireworks! There were about ten kids and then grandparents and great-grandparents. We were all lined up outside and we brought a mattress out and all the kids sat on that. Cute Joshua was a riot following the crowd of kids around and immitating everything they did. It was so funny. What was better, was that none of the kids were afraid of the fireworks and all had a blast.
This last weekend we went to San Diego and had a lot of fun. We visited my sister and brother-in-law, cousin and neice. Kyle's favorite part I think was to stay in the hotel, which was very nice (thank you GG!). I was also able to visit my friend who is now stationed in San Diego, and I haven't seen him for five years. The last time I saw him was when we were in Italy.
Anyway, everything was going well, and then suddenly on our way to my sister's Joshua's getting all fussy, and then throws up all his breakfast...poor Joshua! Well, that proceeded the rest of the day. He couldn't keep anything down. Later that evening, we were at the beach and Kyle and I were playing in the waves and having fun, he decides he's done. Hunts up some shells and has fun in the sand. Well, Robyn and I are playing in the water like little kids when Jodi come yelling to me to come in.,...Kyle got sick! ewwww!!!! Another one! My poor boys!!! Here we are on vacation and my boys can't keep anything down!
So, we go home....well, by the time it is time for bed, they boys are fine, it was just a 24 hour nasty stomach bug. Well.....it liked to travel....I was up sick all night, almost passed out a couple times do to dehydration, but it passed....finally. Then my mom had it, but pretty mild (thankfully) and we go home the next day. Then my sister calls...oh, she's sick now, Jodi and Olivia are sick now..Robyn had to go get an IV for fluid for dehydration (and she's pregnant), and the following day Casey had to! Because he got sick too!!!! Nasty little bug....
Well, that's all for now!

Friday, June 22, 2007
Well, life has been a bit crazy this last month. I just started back working, and trying to figure out hours and babysitting and all other kinds of "responsible" things has been a bit stressful. Well, I think for the most part I've figured out most of it, but there are still a few loose ends to tie up and put schedules in stone.
We will start with little Joshua, who really isn't so little...He is SO CUTE! He makes the funniest faces, and just has this great personality that makes me laugh constantly.
Both Kyle and Joshua have been such a JOY! I love them so much. They are just growing and growing! Still have pics and video's to post! Please be patient with me!
