All summed up

So it has been like a month and I haven't updated. Not because there wasn't anything to say, but there is so much going on.

Getting ready for UT. The kids are super excited about UT and I am for them too. I will miss them terribly but they are going to have a blast. I am so happy that Pennie has offered to watch them and keep them super busy the whole time they are there. Thank you Pennie! I so owe you one. (Katelyn can come spend a summer any time)

School. It has been a ton of work. I am trying to get out early from school, which is taking its toll on me and the family. This week I volunteered for our local PBS station answering phones for extra hours. It really isn't a bad gig. They feed you and you talk when you are not on the phone taking a pledge, but it is from 6 to 10pm after a whole day of school. Then I have to drive home 45min. So it is a little stressful. Thank goodness it is over though. I made up an extra 24 hours this week from it. Which is a week of school time.

YW. Wow we have a ton planned coming up and I am in charge of some menu's for an etiquette dinner we have planned. The only problem is finding the time to make them cute and fun.

Abbey's final days as a 2nd grader. She had a couple of performances, (including a beautiful solo) you can watch on my facebook page. Then the end of the year performance and picnic. Of which both I will post pics soon. Abbey finished her SAT 10 above average in all category's with exception of spelling. (Which I think was test anxiety) she has 100 on all tests throughout the year.

Hunter finishing 1st grade. This was a great achievement for him. He really took off with both reading and math this year. His scores for the SAT 10 were all above average. He really is a Craig. I am so proud of him this year

Caroline and Kindergarten. I am not going to sugar coat it, Liney was placed "at risk" at the beginning of the school year. I have been working extra hard with her to make sure she was going to be ready for 1st grade. I have to say that all the hard work on Liney's part paid off. She scored above average in all area's except sentence structure, and at that, she was at the top of the average section. So I can rest easy knowing she is right on track.

Baby Craig. Well the morning sickness has subsided. (Brent is happy since we can have pizza again) and as of Friday, the baby looks and sounds great. We find out what we are having on July 3rd. So I will update as soon as I know. I did find out this week that 2 of my highschool buddies are having babies around the same time as me. That was great to find out as well.

This is just an update and pics will follow soon. Thank you for being patient with out very hectic lives
Katie
