    Can you say "BRRRRR"......???!

    Well it's been another week! Uneventful i must admit. Didn't get to much of the organizing as it is a much larger task than i first anticipated. Also, looking for tax stuff is right up there with impossible. The kids "uncleaned" everything i managed to clean...and did i mention that it is 0 degrees today ...yes ZERO. ICK! No snow except on the mountains. DeRells van broke down and was in the shop 2 1/2 days. OMG, $900. later i think we will be eating potatoes all week! The good news is I only have 6 lbs to go to meet my goal weight and it's only been 7 months. I'm not losing so much anymore but maintaining and pretty happy where i am at. I started excercising on Friday which i am hoping will help get me off the plateu. More good news is we finally settled into our stay-home routine. Bubba has finally given in to his naps and wakes up just in time to go pick sissy up from school. Typical days are Bubba playing with his treasured cars on the crappy plastic mat. (Maybe for his Birthday we'll get him a carpet type area rug thing!) Lining them up in perfect little rows of LA type "traffic jams" and the occassional begging for Spongebob on TV. Danielle continues to torture our new kitten - who actually takes it in stride as part of her "job" as entertainer of her master. She covers her with Blankies and takes her for walks by tying her jumprope to her collar. It's quite comical, but no animals are harmed in the making of her happiness so we watch carefully and intercede when necessary.

    Yeah for settling into a stay home routine! I'm sure Bubba enjoys all the one-on-one attention during the day. The pictures are cute! Where is the kitty picture taken? I don't remember that wall color. It's really pretty!

    Yeap, got your emails on the products. We have the Mommy Bear and we're going to try it out. It doesn't hurt to try a million things. Sleep is a beautiful thing.

    Yeah for weekly updates. I'm excited about pictures even! I'll show them to Grandma since she just got here to rock Miss Aubrey.

    Oh, Miss Pixie is just too cute. I am glad she tolerates the kids. Our cat had no chance when you were here for Christmas. Which by the way, it took Whiskers about 8 hours to realize you were not coming back.
    Enjoy your weekend and good luck in continuing your organizing. Yeah...for Bubba and his naps! I am sure he enjoys them too.
    I know that it's too early to think out Danielle's birthday next month, but let us know if there's anything. I found something cute for her V-Day gift.
