So far in the month of May...

We've had Christian's birthday. Here's a couple pics of him and his friend that we took to Incredible Pizza with us...


This same boy had a birthday party on Saturday and the theme was CAMOUFLAGE. This is not a typical birthday party and it was SOOOO much fun. We played all kinds of war games and I was the "team leader" for the north, a.k.a. General Stephanie *LOL* After the games, we had a barbecue (instead of bringing presents, we were to bring a side dish, coke, or chips) and then everyone started leaving. Not us, we were there until 11:15. Steve and the dad started talking computers, so his mom and I played with the kids, talked pictures (she's the one who takes Eliana's pictures) and school stuff (she also homeschools). I learned a lot that night!

Eliana also turned 5 months...I can't believe it. Time is going by so fast. My last baby and she's not supposed to grow up that fast! I've already posted pictures from that day, so I'm not going to add any more for those. She's doing very well at sitting by herself and when you put her on the floor, she'll scoot (on her stomach) all over the place. She also started cereal on Saturday. Steve and the boys fed her and the boys were cleaner than Steve! Steve put the bowl too close to her hands and she grabbed it and spilled 95% of the cereal and then he put it above her feet and she got all excited, kicked the bowl and spilled more (this time on himself). He had to get a crash course on how to feed a baby. LOL


Steve started his master's degree last Monday and yesterday he started his new job.

Last night the kids and I headed up to Fort Leonard Wood for the Tops in Blue show. It's a traveling Air Force show that I normally love to watch. But, this year they were quite disappointing. The best part of the show was the end when they sang "Love in Any Language" and "God Bless the U.S.A."


I've also decided on a new way to go with school, which is a huge load off my mind, although I'm not 100% what we're going to do, I'm 100% sure of what we're not going to do! This may sound confusing, but I'm headed in the right direction.

I've also done something, but I won't mention it just yet. But, if you look closely you'll be able to see in one of the pictures. Tif, I expect you to get it! Sheila, you know, so don't say anything!
