Good Grief

I really need to update my user-pic over here. Ava looks SOOO small!

I was clearing out some thing sin my Photobucket account yesterday. I found a bunch of videos I had made when Ava was about 6 months old! That seems SO long ago. Even hearing Johanna's voice on the videos, she sounds so different now.

These children are certainly growing up so fast. Lost teeth, language explosions.

How do they keep getting older while I stay the same age? ;)

This, I want to know. :)

11-11 - 11:11am

I just noticed that's it's 11/11 and I'm writing this at 11:11am. LOL

I always notice weird times like that. I'll just happen to glance at the clock and it'll be 4:44pm or 10:10am, or 2:22pm. That one is a favorite, since Johanna was born at 2:22pm. :)

WHY I notice the odd times, is beyond me. Maybe it's just because they are more noticeable. LOL

Hope everyones Sunday is going well. The Hubster is off taking pictures. I should be clenaing something, or maybe taking down our H'ween decorations. LOL I've been too sick to take them down, and I'm better now, plus it's nice out, so I really should. LOL


I've been busy playing Webkinz and d/l-ing the beta version of YIM. Hopefully this version will solve my YIM issues. More often than not, I've had to use the web version. I can send messages on the old, regular version just find, but I don't always receive them. Then everyone thinks I'm being a snob and ignoring them. LOL

I've also got all caught up on Facebook, and successfully Mass Poked everyone, so I think I'm good with my online activities after this post is done. :)

They girls are busy playing "summertime". Well, I'm not sure what Ava is doing, J's trying to get her to go along with her ideas, but Ava's not to reliable. LOL So far, J's set up a beach, making summer pics and now wants a "summer snack" so I guess I should go work on that for her. :)

Have a Summery Day! ;)

Photo Hunters











Today's Theme is "Flexible". I'm posting this picture for a couple of reasons. Not only is she physically flexible... and don't you wish you still had the same flexibility today, you did as a child? But also, she was and still is my "go with the flow" kid. :) As long as she's with us, she's up for anything (most of the time anyway) . As a baby, I didn't need to worry about her schedule. She was happy to be with her Momma, and would just fall asleep wherever. LOL

Grrrrr

Blogger has been taking fooooorever to publish my posts. So now watch, this one will fly right through! LOL

My antibiotics are slowly kicking in and I've been feeling more like myself every day. The Hubster on the other hand... after 3 days of staying home from work, I suggested he go to the Dr. too. :) He's now got some antibiotics too. :)

Johanna has a long weekend. We had a fun day at the mall yesterday. She got a haircut and a new Webkinz, I also bargained with her. She could get the Webkinz, if I got to yank out her VERY lose tooth. So she now has now front teeth! :)

She's been running around singing "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth!" LOL

I told her her classmates will think they have a new studen tin class when she returns to school on Tues. LOL

It's a Miracle!

Wow, Look who's actually posting??

ME!


LOL


I apparently really suck at keeping up here, don't I?


I think I got a little too addicted to Facebook. :-P Between that and household, uhhh, "duties" and my boards and email, I don't seem to get over to the ole blog too much. :(

Not to mention I'm now a Webkinz addict. LOL


Things here are going pretty well. I'm just getting over a fun old chest cold. The Hubster seems to have it now. Lucky him.

Johanna's turned 6, lost 1 of her front teeth, and the other one is about ready to fall out. Actually, it won't surprise me if she comes home today w/o it. LOL Her teacher yanked out her first one. She was afraid J was going to swallow it. I tried to yank out the other one for her yesterday, but she wasn't going to let me. I think she wants her teacher to do it again. LOL

She's loving Kindergarten! It's just amazing to me what they learn in K these days.... I remember going 1/2 day and having a nap time and snack time and story time. Johanna is READING.

So umm, there goes the days of spelling out stuff we don't want her to know! Dammit. :-P

Ava's 21 months old now! She's back to being interested in the potty, and she's talkign up a storm. I probably hear a new word from her every other day! It's fun that I can have little conversations with her now!

Of course my having the chest cold has made that a bit challenging. I lost my voice completely one day and I still don't quite sound like myself.

We we're getting ready to go to the grocery store this am, and I told her to go find her socks. She had her shoes, but needed socks.

She comes back, hands me a piece of double bubble (from TOT-ing) and says "Suck". I look at her and I say. OK. A) that is gum and not a sucker, and B) I said SOCK not Sucker! LOL

So, Yeah... LOL It's Monday here!

Hope you've all been doing OK out there in blog-land, and I'm really sorry I stink at updating! :)
