It's been busy, busy, busy!!!

Many of you may think I have fallen off the face of the planet, but I haven't. It seems like I had a couple of weeks the end of May where I was beginning to feel a little better, but still experiencing some "morning" (mostly mine was at night) sickness. As I started to feel better life got a little bit busier. Then it was as though the minute I was done feeling sick life kicked into full speed and I have been at that pace ever since, hence my absence. I have really kicked my Discovery Toys business back up in hgh gear and I am enjoying it. That has taken up much of my time. I have also been busy with planning for Braxton's 4th birthday coming up and getting ready for that on Tuesday as well. I also have Kent's family reunion at Fish lake coming up as well on Thursday. Between Discovery Toys, being pregnant, Braxton's birthday, Fish Lake, and the regular life I have just been busy, busy, busy.
