Thor's Bobcat
Thor earned his Bobcat in scouts a few months back, they just gave it to him this past week, so we took some pictures of his bobcat paws and patch :)

Things are going really well! The kids have been having a nice summer vacation, playing with friends and each other, and endless "Water parties", which are their favs.
I have been really busy w/ the business, it's going awesome, it sort of just blew up in the last few months or so, which is great! We finally got our web site up and running (not perfect, but it's there!). http://allpurposecleaners.net
I even had to do my first "firing" the other day, good times! :\
Nate's loving his job. They changed his schedule to the Mon-Thurs schedule like the state's. He wasn't sure if he was going to like it or not, because it would mean 10 hours a day instead of 8, which in itself is fine, but including the commute time, it is a little lengthy, especially now that he gets finished at 5, when everyone else that's driving does :\ So now we get up at 5:30, he leaves at 6, and gets home at about 6. But he gets a 3-day weekend, and on thursday holidays (like tomorrow!), 4 days! So there are pros and cons, but so far it's okay.

Thor apparently taught Annika to pick her toes, and she loves it... She looks like a baby monkey when she does it, and if she finds anything she goes, FIND!!! lol. She'll hate us for this one when she's older ;)
A picture update!
An update via pictures!
We've been experimenting with a lot of homemade foods lately. Last week we (mostly Nate, but I helped! :P) made homemade tortillas, and fresh pasta. Yesterday Nate tried his hand at Shepherd's Bread (first bread making experience for him!), and it turned out awesome.

We signed the kids up for the library's summer reading program, and they got these t-shirts. (silly faces sold separately)
Annika got some cute, tiny "clippies" for her birthday from Charli and Aren, she loooves them.
The face (above) reminds me of my "Chubby chipmunk" picture lol.
Annika escaped the house with Thor yesterday (with no clothes on!).
Looking out the window, we noticed she had made herself perfectly comfortable.. on the driveway.
Notice the silly face, when she caught me taking pictures of her!
Happy Mother's day: Erik made me breakfast, on top of a bunch of cards and pictures.
Love the sign!

All's well..
Nettie had surgery on Tuesday (I had a hysterectomy).
I came home from the hospital yesterday afternoon and am doing okay. We decided to keep it on the down low, so please don't be upset if you hadn't heard about it until now, it was just kind of a tmi kinda thing.
I'm on pain drugs n all that fun stuff, but doing okay other than that. Everything went really well and Nate has been able to take the week off of work so that's been great and everything has been going smoothly. Sorry if this is rambling and I hope it makes sense, lil drug-loopy haha.
Everything else is going well around here. Nate is still enjoying his job. The boys are done with school at the end of May. Thor will be baptized in July sometime (when Nate's parents get back from Iraq/Azerbaijan), Erik is as silly as ever and Annika is as girly as ever!
