Busy Weekend

Our weekend was full of fun and failure. Failure by Josh's truck. On his way home Friday his truck was sputtering, and when he pulled over it stalled. Luckily we have roadside assistance, so he was towed home. Now this wouldn't be so bad if my car was working properly, but it's not. A little over a week ago my headlights went out, I took my car in and it is the switch for the turn signals and low beams. A part you can only get from a dealer, so we are playing the waiting game. Josh hasn't figured out what is wrong with his truck yet, luckily Kylie is home waiting to have her baby and Josh was able to borrow her car for work today. It's dark when he leaves or he would have taken mine, plus we are waiting to hear from the auto-shop saying they have received the part for my car.

On the fun side we went to Funworks for Josh's work party from Pepsi. We left Aaron with Ama Kimmy. It was a lot of fun. We played some arcade games, putt putt golf, and Samantha and Josh rode the race cars and hit balls in the batting cages. They had some really good food there too, and we won an ipod dock from the raffle. We don't have an ipod of course!

Megan favorite thing was the horse ride. Josh let her ride it once before eating, and while sitting and eating she had her eye on it. Another little girl climbed up to start riding it, and Megan put both hands up to her checks and said "Oh no, Megan's horsey!" She was so upset!

She did really good putt putt golfing, for a 2 year old. She would start off hitting it, in her own unique form, then hit it two or three times more and then just pick the ball up and hold it by the hole and hit it with her club into the hole! It was great! Thank you Grandma Kimmy for taking such great care of Aaron so we didn't worry the whole time we were gone! We knew he was in great hands, thanks for keeping him!

One last thing, if I ask Megan for her "Happy face" this is what I get, I love it!

Okay, well my little ones need me, so I will wrap this up for now. Keep your fingers crossed and pray that we figure out what is wrong with Josh's truck and that it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to fix! Love you all!

We're back and better than ever, with our new addition, Aaron David Loveland!

Hello everyone! Since my last post, which was almost a year ago, LOTS has happened! Biggest news is of course our new precious son! Aaron David Loveland was born on July 21, 2009 at 8:15 A.M. He weighed 8 lbs. 15oz. and was 18 3/4" long. He was chubby and perfect! I had a few problems after they delivered him. My blood pressure dropped and I hemorrhaged, they gave me two bags of blood. I gave everyone a real good scare, but all is well! I felt much better the next morning. He is 7 weeks old today! His big sisters adore him, as does everyone that meets him!

Samantha is now in 5th grade! Time flies! What is really weird to me, is that my memories really start in 5th grade. I remember so much from 5th grade and beyond. I can't believe my daughter is at that point in her life. She is quite the chatty Cathy. She just signed up for band and she will be playing the flute. Luckily she has a band teacher for an Aunt too if she needs any help! Her newest thing is finding ways to make money. Mom and Don bought her a book called "The smart girl's guide to Money". She took off with ideas. She started her own car washing business at Grandma Debbie's. Also when Josh needed some cash the other day he borrowed it from her and told her we would pay her back when we got cash, as a reminder she handed him an invoice for $6.00 a couple of days later!

As if the antics of a 10 year old are not enough, we have Miss Megan with her very BIG personality! Everyday is something new that makes me laugh. A couple of days ago I had started the water and bubbles for her bath and went to get her a towel. While in my bathroom I heard her run into the living room yelling "Mommy, fly, help, HELP!" She hates flies! So I go into the bathroom and tell her I didn't see one, she slowly walks back into the bathroom and I notice she has the loofah with the long handle. She looks in the bathtub and starts swinging the loofah around and saying "Fly Mommy! Fly!" In the bath on a washcloth amid the bubbles was a spider. I tell her that it isn't a fly it's a spider, and she said, "Oh...spider" looks at it for a second then yells, "HELP!" Biggest character ever! Her iron is going up every visit we have at the Children's hospital. She is no longer dangerously low. Thank God, that was scary!

Josh is still working up in Sonora, he works very hard for our family. Amiee is pregnant with #2 and it is a boy too! So another nephew for me. Kylie is going to have my newest niece Katelynn any day now. She is one of the cutest pregnant woman I've ever seen! I'm not getting much sleep these days, so I think I'll wrap this up for now! Just remembered I had this page and thought it would be nice to write some things down!

Love you all, Love our family of five!
