second in his class

yesterday was such a busy day,

we cleaned our little apartment from top to bottom.

out of all three kids

i think ab's is becoming the best helper.

she saw me mopping the kitchen floor by hand

and she ran into the other room and grabbed herself

a hand towel and started scrubbing on her hands and knees!

brayden did a great job too with a little encouragement

but blake... he was hilarious!

i'd hear, 'momma, my legs and arms are soooooo tired.'

i'd tell him he could either go sit in time-out or he could help.

he actually choose to sit in time out some of the time,

can you believe that?!!

he did help once he realized he wasn't going to get to watch

fox and the hound if he didn't help but he was so funny to watch.

chuck is doing so well in school!

the owner (momma brown) called three students into her

office yesterday and two were kicked out because they didn't pass their drug test

and one was given his last warning before he is kicked out.

his class took a quiz yesterday

and chuck got the second highest grade in the class!!

they did dry diving yesterday.

the helmet itself weighed 40 lbs and with chuck's small head

he said it almost made it so he couldn't see, lol.

one student was really afraid and almost passed out,

and when they cut the air off of another student

he didn't even notice

until 2 minutes had passed, they finally asked him over the com

if everything was ok.

then he freaked out since he realized he'd be breathing his CO2 for so long.

thankfully these helmets float when he in the water

he won't have a problem seeing.

he said the oxygen constantly being pushed into this helmet

was so wierd and there was so much pressure it wasn't like

normal breathing.

he said i wouldn't be able to handle this type of helmet, lol.

there is a possibility that they might actually dive today!!

on a side note, abigayle can now climb a ladder up to the

top bunk on the boys bed. nice huh?

and although a 'suggestion' was made

to try to get my children to take naps at the same time,

i just want to report that even though they

did all three nap at the same time yesterday,

and i was able to read for the first time in peace and quiet

in such a long time

lets just say... i didn't get much sleep last night.

ab's did not sleep well and i will not be trying to move her

nap a little later in the day.

thanks mom!! i blame my sleepless night on you!! lol
