Grandkids

This week has been hectic!! I'm not used to having 3 little ones 24/7. My week started with working on Sunday and Monday, then Brad and Chely flew to Utah on Tuesday so I've been responsible for the kids since. It's a lot of running to and from school. Plus Patrick was sick Tuesday and Wednesday so he didn't go to school. I sent him today, but told him if he felt bad to go see the nurse. I'm sure we'll have lots of homework to catch up on tonight. Cameron didn't go to bed easy on Tuesday night but did better last night. Emily is a big help, she likes to help cook and clean up afterwards! Of course this would be the week that Doyle's work decides to work 10 hour days. Then after work he has to swing by Brad and Chely's and feed their basset hound, Tag. I'll get a little break this weekend, Chely's parents will take the kids either on Friday evening or Saturday and keep them until Tuesday morning. I'll get Cameron early and then pick up the big kids after school. I wish I had Monday off, but I don't, so I'll have to wait until next Thursday for another little break.

Here's what I know so far from Brad and Chely's trip. They have decided on a place to live. It's a 3 bedroom apartment in a really nice complex. It has all appliances, 2 baths, fireplace, garage, and storage. I'm glad that they will have a comfortable place for the kids to move into. Their little rent house is really just too small for all of them. They also will have access to a fitness room, and two pools. I'm anxious to go and see the place once they get settled. I haven't heard anything on their job hunting yet, hopefully I will today. It's going to be such a change for us all. Hopefully it will  be a good change for them, we really won't know until they are there. The kids told me they are excited but that they will miss us. I told them we will Skype and we'll come visit when we can. I may have to get a second job to go as often as I know I'll want to!!!

Looks like everything is falling into place for Brad and Chelly. I know th mixed feelings you must be having. Happy for them but sad for the situation.
