Unger Squad: What happened to April?

Not only have I been a major blogging slacker, the month of April flew by with hardly a moment to breathe. Each day Josh and I have run back and forth during lunch to let Charley out. She has been doing really well. Well....except for the fact that she thinks 4:30 am is an acceptable wake up time. She gets up to potty, then wants to play. Uh, no Charley. Notice that it is still dark? Sleepy time...shhhh....she does not go for it.
My 39th birthday came (and went) with hand made cards from the kiddos, angel food cake, and soccer practice rain out so I could spend the evening with my family. I tried not to dwell to much on the fact that I am in my last year of the 30s. There will be a whole year to dwell on THAT.
We planted Max's loofah seeds since he was so successful last year. So far we have had two sprout up. Hopefully, we will see more. I also planted him some blueberry bushes. One is not looking well, but the other two look good so far. I am not the greenest of thumbs, but I am trying.
We have seen a ton of rain this spring. The kids have seen more of the inside of our house than the soccer fields. The rain is good for the grass and plants and all but it is starting to get to be a bit much!
After almost 15 years, Josh and I got a new mattress. I have been longing for a king size mattress....especially since everyone always seems to end up in our bed! So we bought a mattress which is being made and hopefully arriving early May. We had a day off from school so Josh and I went to Ikea to pick out a frame for it. I spent the next day putting it together. Can NOT wait til the mattress comes. The little things, right?
So here it is....end of April. 24 calendar days left of school...til summer break....

Here are some April shots....
