Monday

It's definitely a Monday around here. Nothing bad, just Monday. The girls are more tired and cranky than usual. I'm running around trying to clean up the house, and 8pm (bedtime) seems really far away. This morning I went back to the gym for the first time since we all got so sick. It felt really good to work out and I was surprised at my endurance. I'm working on a weight loss picture. I had the King take a few this weekend but I just wasn't satisfied. I promise I will post before and after pictures very soon.

We had a great weekend. Friday night we watched movies with the kids. On Saturday morning we went and got new cell phones, Chiggie had a b-day party to go to, and we took all the kids bowling that afternoon. Sunday we went to church in the morning and then Chiggie and I had a Mother Daughter tea event to go to through Girl Scouts. The tea was fun. We had finger sandwiches and played BINGO. It was nice to have some quality family time.

The weather really can't make up its mind. After a weekend of nice weather it's now hovering below 40 degrees and looks like there may be a possibility of snow. Have I mentioned that I cannot wait for Summer?

Explosive



Lately Midge's language has just exploded. I don't think there is anything that she can't say. Last night she had a bad dream and cried out. I went upstairs to check her and she told me that she had had a bad dream. I reassured her, tucked her in, and promised her a treat of eggs and bacon in the morning. When I went up this morning to wake her, she immediately said " eggs and bacon?" I had to laugh. Very soon we're going to start working on potty training. My feelings are that it will be pretty smooth. It will definitely nice to only have one in diapers.

Gardening


The girls got Garden Girlz from the Easter Bunny and today we planted their gardens. In a few weeks we should have grass, bean stalks, and silk plant. The girls are excited and actually so am I. Hopefully I'll have some actual garden pic's soon!

Upswing

I think she's feeling better!

Cousins


Poor Boo

Everything seemed fine when we went to bed last night. By around 3am everything was clearly not fine. Boo became irritable and restless. She tossed and turned, and she was very warm to the touch. Today she is fussy and obviously not feeling well. Tylenol helps, but I can tell she's just not herself. She doesn't have any other symptoms so at this point I'm just assuming it's a mild virus.

I went to the video store first thing this morning and rented Alvin and the Chipmunks for the girls. I grabbed them a bag of candy a piece and we're going to a have a nice afternoon just hangin' out. It's 26 degrees outside so there really isn't much else to do. It's April now, warm weather has to be coming soon!
