while the kids are napping..

I guess I should try and post something. I've been in a bit of a rut lately. Sad for lots of reasons, stressed for even more reasons and crazy busy. Between work, getting Cadynce ready for school, swim lessons, weddings and camping things have been go - go - go!

Last night I was thinking of some of the really funny things that have happened to share with you all:

• Cadynce asked our friends son, Skylar (12) if he would play with her (he had been just prior) and he said, "no, not right now Cadynce." Her response. "Skylar, let me tell you how this works, I'm going to ask you again and say pretty please, and then you're going to say yes." * where does she get this from!? hilarious, right?
• Colby and I recently started a new work out called p90x and we had to take "before" pictures. There are 4 poses we did, forward facing hands on hips, forward facing arms up all muscly like, same as before from the back and then the side. Colby takes my picture and instantly says, "you don't wanna look at those." haha... gee thanks babe!
• While down at the river at our friends house we were all swimming and Camden was playing in the sand area where it just meets the water (he's not big into swimming or being in the water this summer). Camden was naked and slinging mud...Stacie just happened to capture this:

On the not so funny side of things: Camden has had double ear infections, strep throat and tonsillitis while Cadynce has managed to escape all these for the most part. Work has been really stressful and as most of you know us and our situation - it makes home a little hard too. But we're doing our best to make things work and to keep work and home separate.
What has summer been like for all of you?
