Can’t believe how fast this pregnancy has gone.  I guess with it being #5 it just seemed to ZOOM by!! I was blessed by a good friend Jenny (THANK YOU SO MUCH)  in Washington to host an “online” baby shower for me.  She made up and page on FACEBOOK and people have been mailing gifts.  It has been such a blessing to us.  I agree with her…. every baby should be celebrated.  They are ALL blessings from God.  Many people think, “oh its the 5th, they don’t need anything”! Actually by the time the 5th has come around a lot of things are broke, and used to the point that they don’t work anymore, plus its nice to get a few NEW things for the baby too! Makes it FUN and exciting.  We set up and registry on AMAZON since most people do amazon now.  Made it fun and easy.  There are still things we need for this little guy. 

Sleeping is getting harder for me lately.  Titus is getting big in there and running out of ROOM! Low on energy too! So hard some days.

Gregory and Adam start basketball camp on Friday evenings for 4 weeks, starting this week.  They are pretty excited.  Should be a fun thing for them to do. 

Although Gregory will miss the first one.  He got invited to a girls 13th Birthday party on Friday.  We were really hesitating about letting him go.  However after talking with the Mom (she’s a counselor at the High school) and used to be an old neighbor of ours growing up, it seems pretty tame of a party.  He gets to ride in a LIMO to go to dinner with the group and then have cake and ice cream.  Wasn’t sure what to get her for a gift.  We went with a camelback purple water bottle, purple nail polish and a dr. pepper lip gloss.  I wouldn’t mind getting that as a gift, so figured she would be happy with that too.

Gregory is getting so tall.  His voice is so deep.  He is a really great kid and I can’t believe he will be 13 in July!! Oh my goodness!! Pretty soon he will be driving.  He loves playing with his penny board, scooter, swimming, sports and a few video games.  Moving on to 8th grade next year.  We borrowed some neat devotional books from our pastors wife and he’s been enjoying one of the baseball ones daily. 

Next week is the LAST week of school!! Adam’s LAST year at Sespe school which is right across the street from Brian’s office.  They are re-doing some of the classrooms and its expected to take a few years.  So Adam is moving to the new school which is in the river-bed.  We just turned in the teacher request for 4th GRADE! Yikes.  He will be in middle school before we know it.  Oh my goodness. Gregory and Adam have already been enjoying Granma and Pop’s pool a lot.  I love that Gregory is a good life guard!

Luke starts preschool in August.  Just two days for a couple hrs each day.  We visited and he seems very excited.  Hopefully we will be able to teach him more swimming this Summer and that he will get it! He sure loves to go down to Pop’s and collect quail eggs.  Still loves Girl as much as ever!

Gideon is still taking 2 naps a day and sleeping all night.  He’s getting so big.  Starting speech therapy today.
