Sooooo behind!

Wow am I ever behind on this huh?! Well here is an update on the Kile Krew....(if your reading this and there are no pictures check back tomorrow and I'll have them loaded)

Madi is spending several days a week with Grannie and Grandad. She LOVES it. Probably for the most part due to the constant attention and over feeding of her ego. She looks at me or says things sometimes that remind me of ME!

Caitlyn is doing great in PreK. She is really picking up on the reading and LOVES doing addition. Thats absurd to me that they do it in PreK but whatever....she's happy. She spends a few mornings a week with Grandma Pat who currently is feeding her shoe and shopping obsession!!! Boy you get my girls one on one and they are attention stealers!!!
She had her first soccer game with coach Daddy on Saturday. It breaks my heart I missed it but she scored 3 goals!!!! There are lots of pics. courtesy of big brother Josh.

Noah is adjusting to the new schedule well. Bless his heart he is so patient. He definetly gets "forgotten about" more than the others because he's just so good. School comes easy to him and he's just happy to "be". He wrote an adorable paper we got to read at open house last night and it was basically all about how much idolizes Joshua. He is performing as a rooster in a school play on Friday and I'm anxious to see him.

Joshua is sooooo headed for the "diseased" years as my dad calls them. He's 11 going on 16. I'm SOOOOOO happy we chose this route of school for him. He is onery but still so sweet and respectful the majority of the time. He's struggling a bit in school right now with some new math concepts but they push them to excell so hard in his school that its good for him. Please pray we can send him back there next year.

ME. I'm still working both at Dillards and at the secretary job. I really enjoy Dillards during the evening. Its the weekends away from the family that make me sooo sad. Its hard missing events and missing out on time with Vince. Hopefully, I won't be there much longer. As for the other job. It has suddenly gone from part time to very full time. I LOVE it! Its just another adjustment period we need to go through. I feel so blessed that God placed the opportunity in my lap when I needed something and fast.
My birthday was a bummer but thats chalked up to cookie dough nightmares and too little money. Besides who wants to celebrate when you get this old????? LOL

Vince ~ I have finally diagnosed my psychotic husband with Too much Stress Syndrom. Bless his heart. He is such a good man he just goofs up on the little stuff like:
1. sharing the stress
2. confiding in me
3. telling the truth about the little things he doesn't think "matter"
He has been under an enormous weight of pressure for the past 6+ months and he thought he was sparing me the stress and frustration and holding the burden himself. Little did he know he was making me CRAZY!
Long story short ~ (call if you want the juicy details).... He is no longer working with his partner but has begun a new adventure in the same field and the benefits seem to be endless. Most importantly he's nice, sweet, caring, relaxed, and back to the Vince of old (Hallelujah!)

Pray for us as God is moving us in new directions. We are soooo blessed!

Love to you all,

Shaunna

Shaunna, Loved the updated BLOG. It's Friday, where are the pictures? And, Noah took just as many pictures as Joshua did! All of the first pics that were taken were by your youngest son, and he was feeling SO grown up getting to be the official photographer while Joshua was at baseball practice. I know! We let your eight year old carry around your camera, shoot us! LOL He had the strap around his neck and me, Dad and Pat were keeping an eye on him.
It is a joy to take care of your children.

To Sunni, LOL, Meet for lunch? Catch her if you can. Shaunna's on the run all the time. You are a sweet friend. Shaunna's birthday was on the 11th, a friend did manage to slow her down enough to take her to lunch then drag her to the school to pass out cookie dough.
