The season has started

They've already been a couple of times, but now that it's really getting nice the 3 big boys will be gone constantly.  As long as they eventually bring something home to eat it's alright.  Hey, we gotta keep our boys happy and when they go fishing, they stay happy!

Soccerx4

This is Kae's 4th season in soccer.  She is so great!  We're taking it easy this time around, but she's still just enjoying it.  Plus this season (league) is with her classmates.  She IS tough on that field and, I know I've said it before, is natural!  If we never get soccer in school by high school, she will have had fun playing anyways.

Here are her fans.

MMM...late snack

And no, I don't share.  Hey, it's the only time I can sit and savor something I really love.  Tonight's delight was king size Reese's peanut butter cups.  Bad mom, but my mom did it to us and I'm sure the tradition will continue on.

PICTURES!

We have new pictures as of today.  The girls love modeling for me, so I get tons.  Chelsi had to go to the bathroom when I was finishing with the hanboks, so I thought she was done.  She came back when I was cleaning up and pouted until I got it back out for her.  :)  She is a MAJOR ham!

Swingin'

Been a little busy lately.  Friday we had our annual rummage sale and while we got rid of almost everything we came home with a few extras.  Of course, I always buy some new clothes for Kaelin there, but they also had their baby swing....we have our rummage sale at someone else's house with other families.  I traded something of ours for the swing.  Jaemin knew exactly what it was when it came through the door.  Since there never seems to be enough perfect days to go out and swing I asked Brian to get some hooks for the basement living room.  See, we never did finish our ceiling in half of the downstairs, so I figured he can just swing down there sometimes.  We can move it outside to the real swingset when it's nicer.  He LOVED swinging.  How many kids get to swing in the house??

Look at the joy in this face!

Lost Mail?

I'm really hoping it's not lost, but I think it is.  Jaemin's foster sister emailed this week to check and see if we received the Christmas present they sent.  Oh no, it's April and we haven't received anything.  That really worries me.  I wonder what it was?  We would treasure anything from Korea.  I am still holding a little hope it shows up eventually or maybe they sent it through the agency and that's what has held it up.  But, I can't imagine they didn't send it directly to our address since they have it.  I so hope it went through the agency and they just haven't had time yet.  Most of us have all heard of the agencies not having time to send packages out right away and they can sometimes take months...this is what I'm hoping for.

Fishin'

As in fishin' for something to write.  By the time I get here my mind is just tired and blank so even though I have a million thoughts go through my head as I drive I'm too tired to rethink them and reiterate them here.  Drive time is my only quiet time completely to myself.

But, I don't think I said that Ms. Kae got glasses last week.  I think I eluded that she may, but we now have them.  For now she only has one pair that she is wearing at home only.  Her vision isn't terrible, but she has an astigmatism exactly like I do and when her eyes are tired at night they make things clearer.  They said she'll need them for more in a year.  So, we thought this would be good practice for her to learn to care for them and keep track of them.  She picked them out and everything.....can't go wrong for $50 total (frames and lenses).  We're hoping to get a second pair this summer and then have her leave them in her desk at school next year.

Here she is.
