Sunday, Sunday!

Oh the things I wanted to get done today, but of course didn't. At least I got one thing on my list done, hey it's a start. I got the van washed and waxed, yes waxed by myself. Now just the inside needs to be cleaned.

I'm up at my parents house again, I think it's going to be a weekly thing since I'm closer to work, my Father can get his work done, I've got my computer and we have 2 sets of eyes on the twins. It works and we both think it works out well.

Our website is updated, and I still need to get photos us as well. Another task that will take awhile, don't worry I'll get there, when? Who knows haha!

After washing the van, sleeping weird last night because Brinlee was cranky and wanted to breastfeed, my neck, arms, feet and back are very tight. So I figured while up here at my Dad's I'd sit in the hot tub and relax the muscles. I had to give the twins a bath, then the baby, so I'm beat! Well...the heater isn't working on the hot tub. ARR!! So it's just not my day today.

Hopefully tomorrow will start a better week!

I'm on Facebook

Well a lot of people have been talkng about it and I thought it might be nice to find old friends that I worked with and some other friends as well. I won't be ont ehir often I have so much going on here, though I'm writing this right now. LOL!

I need to still finish updating our website, work on cutting music and clean the house. Oh yeah and the kids too! If you are on Facebook go ahead and find me :)

Happy New Year!

Well some of us made it to 'Ring' in the New Year! I twas Sarah, Quinn, Gramps and Brinlee asleep on Sarah's chest. Quinn was a party animal, but hated the fireworks. We just relaxed at home and really did nothing, watched America's Funniest Home Videos, and had snacks. Bella has been fighting a cold so she crashed early, then Jay crashed because he had to be at work at 7am.

Brinlee woke me up at 3:15am crying with a poppy diaper, and wanting to eat. Then after breastfeeding on the couch and dosing finally around 5:30am, I tired to get her to fall back asleep because I moved her she was up until about 7am when I finally got her in her crib. Bella was up by then, and we went into bed. I only slept from 7-8am when Brinlee woke up again, I tried to sneak out of bed but the notorious Bella followed! So needless to say, I had nothing to drink, didn't party, but still feel like I have a hangover!

We hope you all enjoyed your New Year festivities. May 2009 bring good luck and happy times to all!

Christmas 2008

What a great Christmas we had this year! We went to Disney for a few days with Nanny and Gramps before Christmas. The kids nad a ton of fun and so did we.

Christmas Eve and Day were very relaxing but I think they were a bit overwhelmed by the toys. They didn't know what to play with first! Busget was tight so we did get a lot of things ourselves for the kids through Freecycle, and they love all of them.

We hope that you all had a great Christmas with your familes. Please take a look at some pictures that we took. I hope to update our website and keep up on out Bolg some more. There is always way too much to do around here and I can enver get to everything I want to get done!

I took a ton of pictures so here are a few of them with some video.

Ice Box

Wow has it gotten cold these past few nights! BURRRR! I'm sure htose of you up north don't thinkt hat 60 degrees is that cold, but I'm freezing this morning. The kids are walking around the house with no socks on, barefoot, and I'm getting colder just looking at them. I think fall/winter has arrived, well at least for a few days. It's supposed to warm up for Halloween so taht will be good for the kids.

I realized that I should ahve turned on the heat last night, poor Brinlee when she woke up this morning her hands were cold! I didn't put a blanket on her since she slept in her own crib last night. And through the night too. So this morning I wrapped her in a nice warm blanket :)

Those of you who are up north, stay warm, I'm sure you are laughing at my post. I better go make some breakfast for me and the twins, though they will tell me, "No, I'm not hungry Mommy."

'Cookie Monster'

Well just wanted to share Bella's fascination with 'Cookie MOnster.' First of all I relaly don't know how she even knew who Cookie Monster was. We don't watch Seseme Street, so how she knew who he was is beyond me. We do have Elmo books and the talking Elmo, humm? Anyway she has this fascination with 'Cookie Monster' for Brinlee and her diapers. The diapers have the Seseme Street characters and when she helps change Brinlee with me, she MUST go through all the diapers and pick out Cookie Monster! So needless to say it takes 5 min just to get a diaper on Brinlee!! When there aren't any in the bunch, she goes through it again, can they make them all with Cookie Monster? She did this with her diapers until we switched to Huggies from Papmers, but now the fascination with BElla and her diapers is that she MUST have 'Mickey and Minnie'. OH how I can't wait until she is in undies. But then again I'm sure she will want a certain pair each time!!

HAPPY SHOPPING!!!

We did it!....maybe?

OK well today Bella went stinkies in her diaper. I always tell them yucky and that they need to do that in the BIG potty. She wanted her diaper off and a Pull Up on, I said 'No not until you go in the big potty.' So she ran to the potty real fast and had me prop her up there. Well....she did a tiny nugget! I mean it was smaller than a dime!! She was so happy and said 'bye bye' to it and flushed the toilet.

So yes we got to put a Pull Up on. Later on in the day she went stinkies in her Pull Up so I put a diaper back on her. She threw a huge fit!!! I walked away. 5min later she comes to me with a Pull Up in hand, Quinn was asking for it, and I asked her "Did you take your diaper off?" and I lifted up her skirt. NOPE...she took off her diaper and put a Pull Up on HERSELF!!! Well can't yell at her for that.

Are we finally on our way to Potty Training? My oh my I hope so!
