Photo dump!

I finally got the adapter for my camera and am able to download Jaden's pics from last week. So sit back a relax cause there are alot!
Yep that is a sprinkler in March in Ohio!!!
The weather was so nice we were able to have a street party with neighbors one night. Jaden and lasted till 9:30! The dads on the other hand came in at 11:00!
I always knew that dog had the devil in her!
And my funny Jaden story of the week...
We are working harder on potty training and now she gets money when she pottys. Yesterday we had to go the bank to get the first of many money orders for Warren's adoption. Jaden and I talked about what it was for before we went in. When we were inside I told her to tell the lady why we were getting the money and she said "Because I am peeing and pooping in the potty so I get money!" She was very proud of herself and the lady thought it was a hoot! Only Jaden!

Pool time!

So we decided to join the local YMCA so Jaden could take swimming lessons and she and I could enjoy the pool all year round. She and I have already been a few times and she loves it. She will start her lessons next month. One day when I get my adapter I will be able to download our other pool pictures but for now you can take a look at last nights fun in the water! You will notice that Jaden's lips are blue because for some reason the pool was freezing last night! I felt like we needed to pee in the water just to warm it up! (not that we did or anything!)

And were back...

So we have been SO busy this past week and I have been dying to post but there has been one MAJOR problem. My camera was DEAD! I thought it was the battery and got on the internet and ordered two which lead to our credit card number being stolen(I will get back to that later!) The batteries came in and my camera still would not turn on. There were MANY tears shed by me because I take about 1000 pictures a month! Then we found out there were two batteries in my camera(you would never have found it without the interent!) We tried that and still it was not turning on. I cried some more and then Rusty said we could go out and buy a new camera! Then I got my hopes up and started looking at new models. I decided to flip on my camera one more time and low and behold the thing turned on! I was happy but a little sad after looking at all the new cameras out there. So now we are back in business. I got to use my camera last monday and then it died so I had to use my little back up camera. The only problem with that one is that I don't have an adapter to download the pics, but don't worry it is on order and I will download them soon.
So we have to go way back to St. Patrick's Day and play catch up!
On St. Patrick's day Jaden became my little gardener and helped me repot my african violets!
Then we went inside and threw our own St. Paddy's day parade since we were missing the big one in Mississippi!
We spent the afternoon letting Jaden chase down her daddy's airplanes. This was a sure fire way to get her to go to bed early!
And because the plane chasing did not wear her out at all we spent the night making smores outside with the fire-pit!
On Monday we had a playdate with all of our new neighbors and friends! The kids had a blast and so do us mommies!
We also found out what happens when you play with boys!!!
But it was nothing that a Dora band aid couldn't fix. And right about here is where my camera died!
The rest of the week was a ton of fun and trips the the YMCA to swim. Once my adapter is here I will load those pics!
Today when my camera came back on we had some fun painting!
And now onto our story about the credit card. We think that someone got our number from my online camera battery order and made themselves a credit card. Luckily I just happened to go onto our checking account and see that someone had gone to Marshall's and TJMAXX and spent about $100 at each place. I was pretty sure Rusty didn't do it and we I called him he confirmed my suspicions! So I called the bank and found out that they had also filled up on some gas and had tried to use the card at a Wal-Mart for $423 but they were asked for ID and of course they didn't have it. So now they are investigating it and we should be getting our money back soon. And I would like to send a big shout out to the Wal-mart in Lancaster PA who actually checked for an ID! You guys rock!!!
