Sorry

I'm sorry for not updating this much in the past couple of weeks. I can't seem to get my life straightened out quite right, but next week Alex starts preschool and soon we'll finally get someone hired for the office and life will settle. I haven't taken many pictures lately, and when I do I can't remember to bring the memory card to work to get them on here and I certainly can't do it from home. (Avril freaks out when I'm not paying attention to her - something we need to work on obviously.) For a quick update, our house has been a bit sick lately. I came down with a cold last Monday and just today I'm feeling close to 100%. Frank picked it up late last week and was pretty bad off all weekend, and the kids are just pestered by some runny noses. But hopefully it will all go away pretty soon. It is dry and hot here and we can't go outside at all for fresh air and I think that has something to do with it.

I've been busy this weekend doing school shopping for Alex, and that was fun. I spent way too much, but hopefully he'll be able to fit in this stuff through most of the year. He doesn't really grow fast; Avril is catching up to him in height! We're visiting family in Indiana this weekend and I'm really looking forward to that - it has been several weeks since we've seen Beanbah and Papa Great. And to top it off, Kimmi will be there on Saturday and I'm so excited to finally meet Ireland!
