Nice day

What a NICE day compared to yesterday! Once the girls wake up from their nap we are going to go run some errands, and I am looking forward to it!

We went to a playdate today at Carrie's house. The girls made such cute snowmans (well more like they told me what they wanted, and mommy made it, lol). They had a great time. Carrie's house is so much fun for them and me. :)

Today when we got home from the playdate daddy was working on the toilet! YAY! He fixed the toilet! Now we don't have to worry about shaking the handle or opening up the tank to close the stopper because of water running. It is fixed and I am so relieved because I have been asking him for MONTHS to fix it. I wish I was as handy as Lori is, that woman can do anything she sets her mind to. I would probably bust a water line or something!

So today Shealyn was laying under the tray in between the couches just chilling out (she likes hiding sometimes). Then she accidently kicked the tray and the big Christmas picture frame that was sitting on the tray came down on top of her! This thing is HEAVY and it has all sorts of decorations on it (very hard to explain what it looks like). Let's just say it is very heavy with a lot of sharp edges on it, especially sharp if it falls a few feet on top of your HEAD! Poor baby got a hole in her head from this thing and her head bled for a few minutes. She was so upset. She is napping now and her head didn't bleed that long and the hole isn't that bit. But when you see blood coming out of the top of your baby girl's head you get a bit freaked out!!

Karleigh is being really good today. She is playing nicely and relaxing on the couch watching Dora as I type this. She doesn't really take naps that often, but she does get "relaxing time".

Tomorrow we have a birthday party to go to at noon. It is at Birdies. We have not been there before but we are looking forward to seeing what it is like. :) All of the kids in the Mommy Network are growing SO fast, TOO fast. It is so bittersweet. I remember when there were so many little ones crawling around, now they are running their tushes off and fighting over toys! lol

Sunday morning Nathan is heading over to Louise's house to do yard work. Louise emailed me and asked if Nathan could do yard work once a week for them for a few weeks. She said it would help them out because of all of her treatment and her hubby working and taking care of Michelle. She said they are just too tired to keep up with the backyard. So Nathan is making up almost the same amount of money that he is loosing every week because of his hours being cut at Superior Marble and Stone. Isn't that just wonderful?! Louise is helping us so much. God is so good and He is looking out for us SOO SOO much in our time of need. It is just such a hearwarming thing. :)

The rest of Sunday we have daddy to ourselves! If it is nice I will see if he wants to go to Mt Tmore and fly kites with the kids. We haven't done that since this past Spring. It has been nice and gusty out and today is perfect weather to fly a kite, so hopefully Sunday it will be as well.

Today I decided that I am no longer going to scrapbook with paper and stickers, etc. I am going to finish Karleigh's first year and do Shealyn's first year. Then once I have those completed I am going to sell my scrapbooking stuff and move on to digital scrapbooking. That way I will have books of pages of memories, but it will not fall apart and it won't be as bulky. I also just have a ton of fun with digital scrapbooking, although I haven't been able to get into it that much yet. But once school is finished I will be able to work on that stuff. :) I am excited about this!

Well, I think that is all that I have to say right now. When I got on here I didn't realize I had SO much to say, but I guess I did.

Til next time. :)

Yucky day

It is such a yucky day. :( I am glad the girls and I were able to get out to the park the last couple of days. That way we don't feel too cooped up. I am so relieved school is over! I should be getting the rest of my grades in the next week, but I am sure I got all A's. I got 3 As and I am waiting for two more grades. It is a nice feeling, like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. I have to get some much needed rest for when I start my Spring semester. I want to try to go to more playdates as well. Also I would love to make it to game nights. It is just really hard when Nathan is working all the time. Winter always seems to be the time that I get depressed the most. I'm not that bad right now, but I think that is due to me being done with school. I'm happy about that. Anyway, not much else to say right now. I'm pretty boring right now! lol Anyway, til next time.

DONE!

I am almost done with school. I just need to turn in my portfolio for Studio and get my grade for Drawing and Studio next week. I got an A in all of my classes. My teacher emailed me today to inform me that since I got A's on all of my assignments for History I do not have to take my final exam and I have an A for the class. That is SUCH a HUGE relief! I am so happy that I don't have to take the final!!!

On another note, I got a weird email from an old friend today. Not sure why she asked me what she did, but I hope I don't get involved with more drama from that previous group of friends. I was really hurt by what happened in the past and I don't want that to happen again. I wish I could have my friends back, but that can never happen.

Let's just hope that one day I will be able to make best friends again.
