Rebecca always amazes me by how creative she is and how she is constantly looking on Craige's list for the best deal. She has been looking for a trampoline for awhile and she found one close that turned out to be $20. It's in great condition and it was already disassembled and ready to pick-up. So, yesterday she broke the news to me that she was picking up the trampoline. In Rebecca style, she got home and began setting the whole thing up. The kids have absolutely loved it. They have also been trashed after using it for awhile. Last night they went right to sleep, even Jonah.
There were the normal bumps and bruises that the kids end up getting everyday anyway. About every 30 minutes, one comes in crying saying that they bumped into one another but as soon as they get a kiss, they are running out the door for another go at it. It has been great.
Jacob, who has even had a fever off and on, will run out for a quick jump and then he goes right back to the couch.
I found Jacob on the trampoline when there was no sign on him in the house. So, Rebecca, the outstanding award for mother of the year goes to you this week. I have a lot of work to do to one up you for the father of the year award. Better get working.

Allyn would be so jealous... She has been asking for a trampoline for years. What is it with jumping that she likes so much?? I guess I will start checking out craigslist for a $20 deal. I need to find a bumbo!
