Chearleaders

Today was pretty not interesting. But I have this wonderful little girl who follows me around all day to make me feel better. She is full of compliments. By far the cutest thing she has started is following either me or her daddy around and at random times she will start cheering for us "Go Mommy, Go Mommy, Go Mommy" it just makes you feel good about doing the laundry :) When we ask her about it, she simply says "I'm your cheerleader" with a look at you that says you plainly should have known that, any idiot can see it. With motivation like that, I just might move past procrastination to activity soon (But not too soon, I don't want to confuse anyone)

My boys went to see a Jazz trumpet player tonight. they thought it was a single man, but it turned out to be a complete ensamble. They were both pleasantly surprised. What a great fun event for them. We love the local entertainment you stumble upon sometimes.

Weekend

What a weekend! On Sat with all the ice and snow and more ice, wow. On that night, wouldn't you know, we had a babysitter lined up, and all was ready for us to go out. Our sitter called and said she would still come. The concert we were going to was cancelled, but our friends are crazy and wanted to go out anyway, so we went out to eat in the middle of it all. It was fun.
Everyone in our house was holding out for a late start today,but no such luck. Oh well.

My beautiful little girl is sitting with me and telling me I am "my best mommy ever" what better compliment is there in the world? What a sweetheart.

Eight Years!

Well yesterday was our anniversary. My day started out at the Dr.'s office w/ my 3yr. old girl has an ear infection. It is never good when the Dr. looks in the ear and says "wow, that's not good." So then it was off to WalMart (What's a day without adding to Sam's fortune?) After waiting the appropriate amount of time, they decided to tell me that they don't stock the particular brand my insurance wanted to give her. If I would like to come back tomorrow, then they might have it by then. Well, she's 3 and sick, so no thanks. Off to Walgreens we go. Eventually we made it home. Where I got to pack a lunch really quick and wait for hubby to pick me up, and off to the VA Hospital we go. After spending all afternoon in that lovely place. We do some time killing in Iowa City, then find that we have no currency with us. No debits, no checks, nothing.
Eventually we head back to Musc, get our $ and head to Davenport instead. We got to Texas roadhouse and some other places. Even though the day was slow in starting off, It ended quite nicely. Thank you so much to Grandma for staying several hours past scheduled time. We really appreciate it!
It was a very long, odd day. But it seems to be the way that our entire marriage has worked! We love it, there is never really a dull moment. Eight years down, here's thanking God for that and praying for many, many more.

New Address

Well, I had to get a new address for this blog thing yesterday, for some reason the old one wasn't going to work for me.
Today is President's Day, so no school. All three of my kids are sick. each one has slightly different symptoms, but the same bug for all. The Daddy has it too. So it isn't very fun around here right now. At least there is no school to miss.
It is definitely a snowman day today, being 40+ degrees outside. We'll have to wait and see how they are feeling before we rule that out.

Is this how it all starts?

Hello, apparently I have too been sucked into this world of make believe. This will probably not be a very interesting page, as I don't have all that exciting events happening around me daily, but we'll give it a try.
I am at home tonight while my hubby is out with the guys. The Kids are all in bed, so this is where I am at.
Today was a very lazy day around our house, lots of movies, playing and just hanging out. I love those days when all we have on the list of things to do is let the kids play, and clean up after them every now and then.
I have never blogged before, so we'll see where this goes. I hope you enjoy reading my ramblings and I look forward to anyone's comments. Please be kind in what you say. Thank you and Good night
