I've been trying to keep them busy with all sorts of things but it's been hard plus keeping up the house. The other day I actually felt so overwhelmed by everything I thought of going back on the Prozac pills. I went cold-turkey once I found out we were pregnant. Dave has been working horribly long hours the past week which has made it worse for me. He's been leaving at 6 am and coming home at 7, one day at 8pm!!! 12 hour days are hard enough for me as it is but when I fix dinner and have to do that whole process plus baths myself I just want to throw in the towel and say screw it. Next week Alex will be gone the whole week to church camp so it'll be interesting to see how I function since she's such a helper. I know I will get through this though, I always do.
Today we finished our garden and HOPEFULLY the rest of it will grow strong. It's hard to tell
much by this picture because I put some fresh grass clippings on the rows for weed barrier but there is 5 tomato plants in the front row, 20 different varieties of peppers growing behind and then cantaloupe and cucumbers growing off on the side. I can't believe how tall things are getting already and that a tomato plant already has a yellow flower on it! The bare earth on the side is corn rows and then over alittle more is carrots and pumpkins.
Here's a few other pictures I've taken recently....
Damien still won't get into the hot tub but stands on the stairs. lol
Alex with her awards from the awards ceremony. She got a KU reading award, A Honor roll, the medal is for Honor Roll and she got a perfect attendance for the quarter.
