Thursday, April 17

I hope that last blog satisfied those of you who seem to be hungry for more of the trials and tribulations of the culver clan. I have actually been busy since we got back from our vacation. You don't know how messy a clean house gets when you come back from out of town especially when you have 6 people to clean up after. I think I am finally all caught up on laundry and the kids are finally getting back to their normal bedtime routines, and thankfully so am I.
Dakota got his report card the other day and is doing excellent which doesn't fit the behavior that he exhibits when he is at home dealing with me and his homework. Obviously he knows what buttons to push with me and how far he can push them. Although this week he has been doing very well with coming home and getting his homework done so he can go out and play, until tonight. We were off routine, when Dakota got home I had the kids outside with me and we were digging in the dirt and putting in new soil so we can plant flowers out front and I wasn't focused on Dakota so of course he was doing everything but homework. Then around 5 I cleaned up my mess and brought the kids in so I could start making dinner because we had to leave by 5:45 to go to a kindergarten info from 6-7pm and as usual it was just me VS. 3 kids. I think I won but that was only thanks to the teachers at the school that volunteered to keep everyones kids entertained so the adults could have some adult time. Although one of the teachers read us a story that the kids would be learning in kindergarten and I didn't feel like it was adult time anymore. None the less it was nice not having the kids interupting every few minutes for something to keep them happy.
Bob went and worked out tonight at Peak Fitness he is friends with a guy that is a personal trainer there and is helping him out. I think its great Bob seems to be getting into great shape and is eating healthier than I have ever seen. On the other hand he still likes to bring home fattening snacks for "the kids" which I feel that since they are here need to be eatin. (my personal philosophy) And you would think that as much as I run around chasing after the kids and am up and down the stairs answering every beckon call that I would be in better shape but NO, no such luck. I think right now I actually weigh more than my husband and that is not good.

Well I feel like I have gotten enough of my chest for one night. I promise I will start blogging every night for those of you who can't seem to get enough of my stressful life. I love you all and to all a good night.,
