Today we went to my mom's to try on Emily's Baptism dress. Those pictures are a surprise so here is another picture.

This is an extension of cleaning my laundry room which I started a year ago. I have amassed stacks and stacks of papers with ideas for child care, Girl Scouts, and Cub Scouts. I spent the entire day sorting and filing the papers. I still have a lot to do, but did make a huge dent. Whew!

Some of the fabric that we bought, today, to use in making blankets for Project Linus as part of Disney's 'Give a Day, Get a Day' promotion.

James was left alone for just a little bit and this is what I came back to. Milk everywhere

Joe and I put Gianni to sleep and had a drink....but, I fell asleep half way through my glass of wine..does that mean I'm getting old? : )

Making some 'ice cream' out of some chocolate soy pudding that I'd made last weekend & that Shelby hadn't eaten yet. The ice cream maker was loud, but the ice cream is delicious.

Today I went with Nikki for her first ultrasound. It is too early to tell the sex - she is just at 3 months. But we thought it was funny that he was just lying back, sucking his thumb, with his legs up in the air, crossed at the ankles. Like he is just lying back in an easy chair relaxing!

Annie noticed a note in her 'mailbox' at school on Tuesday (she thinks), but didn't get it out until today, when she was taking things out of her mailbox & putting them into her Friday folder. She didn't open the note until she got home.
Now, she doesn't understand the note at all. She does not know who gave it to her or what, exactly, it's supposed to mean. It says 'hobo Not you' on the first line, then 'Annie' on the second line, all over a picture of... A hobo? Annie? I wonder if we'll ever know or if it will remain a mystery forever.

Loved the shadows that the fence made on the snow as I was walking back home from Molly's house this evening.

Tonight, I told Annie to put on the Mickey Mouse ears & gave Shelby some money to put in our 'vacation fund' jar, then asked them to pose for my picture for today. It didn't take long for them to figure it out. Spring Break with Aunt Betty, Uncle Dick & Bryce, here we come!

James dipped his face in the water and when he came back up this is what he looked like.

I'm trying to send this picture to Oprah (thanks to Marla finding that Oprah is having a "how to throw a birthday party" show) but can't because it says my picture is too big...How do I resize the picture? Is it easy? Anyone know?

I was balancing the checkbook (haven't done it in months-I figured that it was about time that I did) and Cole was doing his homework. I found it funny that he was multiplying 3 digits numbers by 2 digit numbers the long way and I was subtracting numbers with a calculator.

We brought Annie's Girl Scout cookie order form to Al's dorm today & hit the jackpot! Thanks Allison! Thanks college students!

What a weekend.....first G was walking, then he decided to climb the stairs! : )
Maureen January 10, 2010
She was getting her book to read for school tonight & I asked her to pose with it, pretending to be reading. Then, to be goofy, I told her to hold it upside down & pretend like she was reading it like that. She did, but then was laughing because she said that she could read it just fine like that, too.

Woody came to visit this weekend...he helped me empty the dishwasher...Thanks, Woody!

Finally got caught up with putting patches on Annie's Brownie vest! It feels good having that done (for now)!

I don't know if you remember, but Mom always used to say "No fighting, no biting" to us and to her child care kids whenever they were arguing. I came across this book on my bookshelf today. Funny how you pick up certain things people say. I am always saying "no fighting, no biting" to my child care kids, and now I hear them saying it too.

They have a shortcut over the fence - up on the doghouse, over the fence, land on the kid-sized picnic table.

We met up with some friends tonight at their house. G and their son were sleeping together...

All of these boxes got delivered to the library today. The librarian had ordered TAG reader pens (they are made by Leapfrog). They will be for classroom use (not to be checked out to the students). I was very confused by the "Do Not Open" written on every box...but, I went ahead and opened all of them (I guess that I was never taught to follow instructions)

Lately it looks like it has dwindled down to Marla & Maureen posting. Sorry I haven't kept up. I've been a little busy. Plus I was running out of ideas for pictures and didn't want to keep posting Madi's pictures. So, here are the trees out front. Pretty, but I would much rather be in Alabama, or Florida, or Punta Cana........

Dylan and Clint were both in Geneva tonight. Clint came up to the bowling alley to visit us. And, then after we got done bowling Dylan, Vaughn, Clint and Joe bowled a few games.

It started out with a few accidental marks on her face, but then she started to have fun with it.

So far the new year's resolution is not going so well. I am trying to get to work on time. I am supposed to start at 8:00. No one really cares when I get there but I just can't believe that I'm always late. I'll try to get up 5 minutes earlier tomorrow.
