Molly

This is more of a post so I don't ever forget the date type of thing, but may peek interest in some people! Molly, our basset hound came into heat again tonight.......we have a very suitable male for her and now need to get them together in about 10 days! Anyone wanting a basset hound, look me up in I believe 70 days (pregnant) plus 10 days before we can breed and of course 6 weeks til they can leave their mommy! Molly will be a WONDERFUL mommy! She has been the most amazing dog we have ever had! I love her to pieces, although she is her daddy's dog! She sits on the rug 5 minutes to 5 every week day, waiting for him to pull in the garage! He loves when I open the door and she runs out to him....they are too cute! So anyways.....ha didn't want to forget the date! Lets hope they can make some cute babies! In the mean time, she gets to wear a diaper (size 6...although I may need to look into some depends for her big butt) and a pair of undies to keep her diaper on! She's so cute! Dew...I hope your up for the challenge...LOL

The last few days!

Wednesday my mom and I met my Aunt Nancy, Aunt Mary Jo and cousin Kim with her new son at Linwood corners for lunch! It was our first time meeting the newest addition to our family. He was born on Thursday March 12th. His name is Zane. This is my cousin whose husband is still battling lung cancer, son! Such a sweet little man!

Me and my new 2nd cousin!

Great Aunt Kay with Zane

Today I went with Bryce's class to the Dentist in Reese. I snapped a few pictures of things at school, and a few pictures of him at the Dentist office.

The first picture is of Bryce's Dr. Seuss hat. As they read a book, they add a stripe to his hat. Bryce's hat is the tallest in his class and the 2nd tallest in the 1st grade. Such a kid!

This picture is of Bryce after he earned 50 AR points. His picture was put on the wall. He was the 2nd on the wall in 1st grade and the 1st in his class. After they have their picture on the wall, they earn a sticker for every 10 points. The stickers are added on Fridays. Bryce has 3 stickers on his picture this morning, so he has at least 80 AR points. He amazes me!

These last 2 pictures are of him with Mitchell and Lauren at the dentist office and of him playing on the dentist chair.

More bathroom work this weekend and pictures to come after our progress.

Sherri and Adam's latest project...revised

Last Thursday I decided to make a few small changes to our main bathroom, well it turned out to be bigger then a few small changes.....when Adam came home and said, you should just take the ugly paneling down.....so now this is where we are! No idea when it will be done, since we are trying to do all the work ourselves to save money...but we are well on our way! Enjoy.....LOL (I tried posting this on the 24th, but for some reason, it took forever for the pictures to post using photobucket, so I am doing them this way!)


Bath tub surround



Home made shelving unit behind door



Same spot....all torn down, LOL


Big mirror, and part of vanity



same wall.....paneling down

Brown plastic flooring that was a pain to take out!

Dry wall down....same wall mirror was on!

My mess, last Friday!

Drew working hard too! LOL

Vanity top off

Vanity out, Adam working on the rest of the partical board floor

New vanity, going with 2 36" vanities so we will have a double sink...this one is just sitting there, and is actually out now. Was there so we could see what it will look like!

My parents are coming out tomorrow to help move plumbing and electrical, and hopefully start hanging dry wall! More pics after that I am sure! What a project...but it will be one beautiful bathroom when we are done!

Bryce's baseball schedule!

Bryce moved up this season to the minors in Reese! He is the youngest on his team, and there is only 1 other 1st grader. I'm not too worried about Bryce though because he just seems to have this natural ability with any sport! I hope he learns a lot being the youngest on his team! We met his coach and team on Thursday and the coach says he needs pitchers. If any of you have had Bryce pitch to you, you'd know he's really good. He has never pitched to a kid his age at the home plate though, so I am sure we'll be working on that. He has pitched to his brother though! His coach also mentioned that he only knows of 1 boy on his team so far that is a catcher (Tommy) so we may see if he'd be ok doing that too. Adam is the Assistant coach and I am team mommy! Most of his games are at diamond 2...which is the farther one from the bathrooms and the concession stand and such! The 1st 4 games are coach pitch, then the kids start pitching! Anyways, here is his schedule!

Opening day is Saturday April 25th. He has pictures at 10:20am. I think opening ceremonies is at noon and he plays at 1pm. Diamond 2.

Monday April 27th 5:30pm Diamond 2.....3rd base dugout (he won't be at this game due to his 1st grade musical)

Friday May 1st 5:30pm Diamond 2.....3rd base dugout

Monday May 4th 5:30pm Diamond 1.......1st base dugout

Wednesday May 6th 5:30pm Diamond 2......3rd base dugout

Monday May 11th 5:30pm Diamond 2.......1st base dugout

Monday May 18th 5:30pm Diamond 1......1st base dugout

Thursday May 21st 5:30pm Diamond 1......3rd base dugout

Wednesday May 27th 5:30pm Diamond 1........1st base dugout

Monday June 1st 5:30pm Diamond 2......3rd base dugout (my first day of school)

Wednesday June 3rd 5:30pm Diamond 2.......3rd base dugout

Friday June 5th 7:15pm (under the lights) Diamond 1.......1st base dugout

Play offs are scheduled from Monday June 8th - Sunday June 14th

There it is. Hope some of you are able to make it to some games! Bryce is very excited about the up-coming season......although he's also going to be in soccer at this time too...LOL Hopefully not many games will be on the same days so he don't have to choose!

Sherri's a college student

So it's official.....I start school on June 1st at Ross medical in Saginaw. I will be taking the 30 week course on medical assistant, and will then be able to do many things! Some of my opportunities include but are not limited to......lab assistant, medical biller, chiropractic assistant, phlebotomist, EKG tech, medical receptionist, pulmonary-function tech, medical records, pharmacy clerk, medical secretary, dialysis assistant, and admitting clerk! I will be in school Mon-Fri from 8:15am-12:35pm for 24 weeks. After the 24 weeks are done, I will start my externship in an office that I may eventually work at full time! I am extremely excited and ready to do something with my life. Although I LOVED doing day care in my home when my kids were young, I knew it wasn't something I'd do forever. When Citgo closed in September, I looked into getting in the PTA program at Delta, and recently learned there is a 5 year wait for clinicals....Drew will be in college by then. Adam and I have talked and think this is a GREAT opportunity for me and something I am very ready to do. According to all my paperwork, my last day of my 30 week program, including the 6 week of externship, my last day will be Christmas day 2009. Not that any Dr.s offices are open that day anyway! So wish me luck! : )~
