OUR FAMILY CHAOS

Well just 2 more days of work until vacation!!! I was off yesterday and went shopping all day - had to buy new clothes in a smaller size. I am loving weight watchers and doing pretty good losing weight. Scott is just working and working. Mason is wild and crazy as usual. He just moved to a new class at school, because he was bigger than the kids in his class and he was beating them and getting put in Time Out everyday. He wasn't really beating them up he was just being the big brother so his teach said. If a child took a toy from another child he would hit them and take it back to the other child. hahaha Bully. He tells on himself everyday - Mason got Time Out Mommy! When he talks to Momma or anyone he tells them too! Mom said he wears his Time Out like a Badge of Honor. He also has a new best friend - the little girl across the street. Alden is 6, but he loves to play with her. She comes over and swings, blows bubbles, and plays in the sprinkler with him. We got a new mattress on Sunday and we left the old one on the floor until after we mowed the yard to put it out for the trash. Well Mason called it the jump bed, he doesn't get to jump on the bed so that was great to him. He jumped on that stupid mattress all day and was sweating he jump so much. Then he had Alden come over and jump too! They played ring around the rosie and everything. Kids what joy they get out jumping on a stupid mattress. Why do we buy them toys? Sunday we are going to Toledo Bend for a couple of days with Scott's whole family for a yearly fishing trip. I bought Mason a fishing pole and tackle box yesterday -- I can't wait to see him fish. Then on Tuesday we are headed to the Big Easy -- Carrie's house. We hope to go to the Aquarium and Zoo and whatever else we can think of. I am taking my Camcorder and Camera, I will put pictures on when we get back -- that is if I can figure out how to do so. More news later. Love Beth
