This is a picture of my book that I'm reading. It is a Percy Jackson book. Even though I haven't read the other books in the series I'm still reading it. It is a good book.

We only got one pumpkin in our yard this year. But, it's a windfall pumpkin, anyway. We didn't plant it there, it just started growing from where a small pumpkin had been forgotten in the front yard over the winter and through the spring thaws.

Today Joe cleaned the house up since we had someone that wanted to look at the house fingers crossed. then we went to my mom's and slept over. James loves hanging out with his Aunt Jess. James also loves his blanket!

This is a picture of Dylan trying to skateboard. He is not as good as me though. He said so himself. He fell down like 100 times.

Today was my baby shower it was so nice seeing everyone. I loved all the gifts can't wait to see the baby use everything. I ended up putting everything away that night and organizing everything and picking out what the baby was going to wear home from the hospital. Tomorrow me and James and Jess are sleeping over at my mom's.

Gabby got rear-ended a couple of days ago. The other person was at fault and her insurance company says that it will cost too much to fix the car. So now Gabby is trying to decide if she will take their offer of $4,000 and they take the car, or $3,000 and she keeps the car. It is driveable, so she is leaning toward the 2nd option and then save for another car.

Tonight we slept over at my moms since I'm on bed rest and need help with James and Joe needs to work very early in the morning tomorrow. Today was someone's birthday so they brought treats for all the kids. James first goodie bag.

This is a picture of me and my friends at Funway. Too bad I fell down and could not roller skate as well. But I still had fun.

I love how the composition of this picture came out - 3 kids up, 2 kids down, with a nice little up/down pattern. Hey Betty, are those my hidden math skills kicking in?

I always forget to bring my camera with, so here's the "after" picture. Nikki and I went out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant to celebrate her raise that she got at work today.
Cole September 24, 2009
In this picture I am doing a manule. It is when you put your back foot on the tail and lift up the front weels. I think I am doing very good at skateboarding so far. This is my first picture of the day and I'll say I did good.
Marla September 24, 2009
At first I didn't think this picture was good because I chopped Cole's head off. But, after I took a better look at it I really like it now. I like the way that Cole is in focus and everything else is blurry.

Got the results today the test came out positive I have to see the doctor every week now and stay on bed rest. I packed everything so i'm ready since the baby can come at any time from now and up to 2 weeks. I just hope I can keep her in as long as I can.

Once I finished spinning all the wool, I ended up with these four ugly balls of "singles". You can use them this way, but it is much better if you twist (or ply) them together to make 2-ply yarn.
This is the 2-ply yarn I ended up with... When you are just learning, you get some sections that are skinny and some fat, but when you ply them together they sort of even out in a lumpy sort of way... Who wants a lumpy scarf for Christmas?
Marla September 23, 2009
We went to "Yeah! Boardshop" today to get Cole's skateboard all ready to go....Thanks, Steve!

Today I went to the doc's office and they took me a test to see if the baby was going to come in the next 2 weeks and they told me that the result would come back tomorrow. James also got a bad rash since he's getting 3 new teeth. Poor baby, so we took him a milk bath to soothe his bottom.

Over the weekend a couple people asked what we did when it was nasty and we couldn't go outside. Dick reads and naps. I do silly things like "spin yarn"... This is some wool I bought from a fantastic shop on a farm near Marengo, with about half of it spun onto two handspindles. Very relaxing, once you practice enough to stop cussing... Especially if you can watch some girly movies while you do it!

Today in the mail I received 2 copies of the Family Fun magazine with my jellyfish costume idea published in it. They changed it quite a bit, but I guess that since they bought the idea from me, they can do what they want with it. I think my version was much cuter! And, I stll haven't received the $200 that they are paying me. I guess I'll give them a couple of weeks, then check into it. Still, it's fun to see my idea used - and on two pages!
Marla September 22, 2009
Took Miranda's advice (from my September 10th photo) and got some more lottery tickets. Finally scratched this one today....Yeah, again!
Maureen September 22, 2009
Annie & I got haircuts today. I haven't had bangs in years & years. They don't really show very much in this photo. I'm not sure how I feel about them, yet.

Today Joe made cookies by the time I took a picture we had eaten almost all of them. I have a sweet tooth right now. I really crave chocolate.

Cole got a skateboard deck from Dylan's friend, Tommy. Now we just need to get him wheels for it. Yeah! Boardshop here we come.
Maureen September 21, 2009
The soap at my kitchen sink, which I used about 25 times over the course of making & serving dinner tonight. The puppies were in the kitchen with me... I'd clean up after one, wash my hands, do one thing toward dinner, clean up after another, clean up after what one did while I was cleaning up after the last one, wash my hands, do one more thing toward dinner, etc...

Apparently I'm the only person in this house who knows how to work the dishwasher.

Go Bears! This is the group of people that Joe and I normally go to the game with. I didn't get the bus in this picture, but we take a school bus that is decked out in Bears stuff. We have a ton of fun! Thanks for watching Gianni mom! : )
