Summer!




Summer time is finally here and what a summer. Here in New York I think we have had more rain than anything else and I think the highest we have hit is the 80 degree mark. I was lucky though Nikki Tyler and I went to Myrtle Beach for a week with some girlfriends it was a week of all the moms and our girls and oh i can't forget about our sole man 8 year old Josh. We had a great week at the pool and beach while back in New York they were battling hail storms and cold weather. We picked the perfect week to be away. The kids had a great time and it was truly a relaxing time, I spent lots of time reading and catching up.

Nikki had to change her site daily with all of the swimming and her blood sugars were running high. I still haven't figured out a way to keep the sites on with excessive swimming. I was glad that I had brought enough site changes to change them out twice a day. Better to be prepared than worry about what to do when I run our. By the end of the week she had swimmers ear and we had to start her on drops. Over all it was a great trip, even with 14 hours of driving with all of the kids it still was a great time.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer. This week Nikki went camping with her dad and friends of ours (I don't do camping, its to much work for me) so I decided to spend the 4 days home with the boys, who just happen to be around this weekend, which is a rare event with a 20 year old and a 17 year old so its Mom and the boys this weekend!
