Hello

Well, we have had a busy last two weeks. With work, school, homework, and whatever shopping we have to do we have been gone a lot. This past week we have been doing a lot of shopping for the kids birthdays. I am letting Taylor pick out a pair of shoes and some dresses for her birthday. She picked out some white shoes with a high heel, as she would call it. Tyler also needs new tennis shoes put we seem to be having a hard time finding the right size. They are either to big or to small. Unfortunately most stores don't sell 1/2 sizes. All three of the kids picked out their St. Patrick's Day shirts. The girls both picked out ones with a Monkey on them and Tyler has a Camo one. Both kids are very excited about their upcoming birthdays.

This week Jason found our local dog park and took Buster to it. Buster really liked it. Today he is taking Buster and the kids there for a little while before the Illini game starts. We will see how this goes. Speaking of Buster he just keeps getting bigger. I am hoping that one day he will stop growing. He is 6 1/2 months old and we are thinking he is probably at least 70 lbs. In January he was neutured and at that time he was 60 lbs. He has been averaging 10 lbs a month. So hopefully before he is a year old he will stop gaining so quickly. We will see.

This past Friday night we went to a visitation for a parent from the daycare. The last 7 months he had been battling with cancer. Their son is in Tyler's class and Jason is one of his teacher's. I also had the little boy in my room when he was an infant. It was really sad but the little boy was so happy that his teacher came to see his dad. The boy has done very well so far. His parents had him in counciling since they found out his dad had cancer. We keep him and his family in our prayers.
Well while the house is quite and I am alone I am going to try to watch a new movie we got. Hope everyone has a great week. We don't have to much other than Taylor's Birthday. She will be at her dad's on her Birthday so we will celebrate on Friday.
