Rain...

          Well, it is pouring rain here again... and again... and again... I really can't complain since the cooler weather suits me fine this year. But my little ones are getting fed up of being cooped inside! I'm working through my list of things to keep them busy. The bickering has increased though in spite of efforts to keep them out of trouble. I'm feeling thankful that during the long days in the winter when we're cooped up at least we have school work to keep them busy! I could give them extra work now, but I don't really want to give them the feeling that school never ends. We're taking the month of July off, we might start in August, then take a break when the babe comes. We'll see!

Hey, speaking of a baby coming! I went to  my 3rd birth (other then my own four)  last night! On the way there I was thinking and wondering... If maybe I prefer to talk with mom's about birth then to be at it. But this birth was really great, and I must say it was awesome to be a part of it. I wasn't acting as a doula or anything, just there to gain experience and to observe another doula in action. I'm so thankful for the experience. Birth is simply amazing! So hopefully I will be able to act as doula and to support more mom's in the future :)

  So how are all of you keeping yourselves and your kids out of trouble with this rainy weather?? I need ideas!!!!!!
