Kids Camp, Daisy, & Arkansas

Kids camp came and went in with a whirlwind of events. All in one weekend, I had Oso Fun (practices and the actual event), my cousin got her baby, Carter, back, i had to pack for camp, clean the house (because mom & bill were coming back from Alaska), and make sure everything was in line for Camp. whew.

In the midst of all that, my cat, Daisy, who I've had since I was four disappeared. I'm kinda still in denial that he's gone. I think. Maybe it's because I haven't seen his body that I don't really believe that he's gone. I still kinda have hope, I guess.

Well, tomorrow I'm leaving for Arkansas. I am SO SO SO excited! I miss my boys so much!

Juillet's coming with me as far as Dallas (well, technically Duncanville).
Depending what time we get to Duncanville will decide what time I'm leaving there on Monday. If I can get there & get to sleep quick, I'll leave around 630am (before all the dallas going to work traffic), which will put me in Russellville between 1230 and 1 (hopefully). If not, I'll probably leave around 9 or 930, putting me in Russellville between 3 and 4.
Then, I'll get to hang out with the Wojteks the rest of Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Then, I'll leave early Thursday morning (no later than 8...or 830...) and go back to Duncanville to pick up Juillet. I'll probably have her drive to Cedar Park (since I'll have driven for 6 hours already), where we will stay with Missy, Bryan, Landen, and Lleyton.
Friday we will head to SCHLITTERBAHN! and stay the whole day.
Friday night, my parents will hopefully meet us in San Antonio & we will hang with them Saturday and come back either Saturday or Sunday.

I am WAY WAY WAY excited...

and now i must go pack!

All nighter...almost

So, I had to teach a Bible study tonight in my Principles of Teaching in the Church class (which went very well, and Ruthie came and watched me!!! YAY!)
So, last night, of course, I was freaking out because I didn't have it prepared. So, I went and got a huge starbuck's vanilla frappuccino from circle k & went to Megan's house. I mean, i figure if I'm going to be up all night, I might as well let her sleep and keep baby boy, right (i'm such a good cousin by the way)? So, I stayed up & studied & about 4am, I was exhausted. So, I got into bed...and what do I hear? baaaaa. maaaa... baaaaa... (also known as baby boy's goat noises). So, at 415am, I was back up. He finally went to sleep at 5am, & I was up at about 630 or 645 when I heard Aunt Maggie come in the room. So...about an hour and a half of sleep. And let me tell you, I'm functioning pretty well for me.

BUT, I'm going to bed now.

Looking forward to a fun day tomorrow:
1) Babysitting the Lierman's :)
2) Possibly lunch with Juillet (maybe Olive Garden?)
3) Shopping! (gotta get khaki's and a blue shirt for pics)
4) Babysitting the McDermott's
5) Slumber Party @ Megan's

and somewhere in there, studying & i'm going to start running again since beach to bay is in like 2 weeks---crap.

ONLY 2 DAYS OF CLASSES LEFT (FINALS) ---MONDAY is Government, Theatre, and Western Civilization---WEDNESDAY is Swimming---and, technically THURSDAY is going out to eat with my class (we did the lesson as a final tonight!).

Carter

Carter is perhaps the sweetest baby...(okay, i'm sure everyone says that about their babies--of course he's not really mine). Anyway, I did a night shift with him Thursday night. He was awake the whole night...okay, not the whole night. Just 1:15 to 5:50. I was so exhausted on Friday. :) But it's worth it. He's so sweet.
He's grown out of the preemie diapers and clothes and is now into newborn clothes. He's over 7 pounds now & is 7 weeks old!

Here's a freakin' cute picture of him, taken last Tuesday.
