First voting experience under his belt. They wouldn't let me take a picture as he was voting (it's not allowed).

I now live in the middle of nowhere. Translation: This is the middle of nowhere. Keep out of this place. I love reading kids' writing when they are just figuring out how to do it. It is like a fun puzzle. And yes, all evening I was in the midde of nowhere and had to watch out for snakes and dinosaurs and stray dogs.

I went to babies r us and found these new bottles. I'm going to see if Emily likes these they are the closest things to breastfeeding since I breastfeed and bottle feed.

Don't forget to vote tomorrow. These are the two people that Vaughn has been helping with their campaigns...so,
And, Vaughn went bowling for fun last night...Wow!!!

I have this pocket chart hanging up for my child care kids. It has velcro ABC letters and pictures. Somebody (not a child care kid) wrote this. I don't know who, but I like the idea of "cozy homes."

Dinner for Vaughn and Cole looked just like it did when they were 3 years old. Mac-n-cheese, cut up hot dogs with ketchup, orange slices and chocolate milk.

Discussing the days events (this is one of those photos taken at about 10:00 at night when I realized that I hadn't used my camera all day)

We dropped off our blanket donation for Project Linus, today. Their living room was FULL of blankets! Wow! They said that they had so many they had to find other places to donate them to, so have arranged to send some to Haiti, too.

About once a month he snaps his skateboard in half from riding too hard. He got a new board today and was putting the trucks and wheels on.

This is a school zone sign by our house...not sure if everyone knows, but you are not allowed to talk on a cell phone while in a school zone (new law for 2010). I had no idea until Joe got a warning ticket for it!

Shelby messing with the puppies' minds. He locked himself in their crate. They kept sniffing around & one even grabbed hold of the latch & tried to open it.

We are working on a reading program with the library. I know he is kind of young, but it's fun challenging ourselves to meet the requirement!

Homework, studying, grades - it's a constant struggle here lately. How do I stress the importance that grades have on a person's future?
"Do you want fries with that?"

We are in the market for blinds/curtains/valances, etc. We got a quote today from a super cute grandma from JCP. I almost want to buy them because the lady was so cute!

Cole and his friend Myles had a worksheet to do for their teacher. She set them free in the school to go measure things. They came by the library to get some measurements.

Waiting outside for me to drive her to her park district acting class. They both play outside until dark, after school, these days. Even on cold, cold, cold days like today.

This is a photo of the shovel that appeared in our yard yesterday when the snow melted away. Cole had used it to dig out his snow hut and then I guess it got buried when we got more snow.
Maureen January 25, 2010
We let the puppies go outside for the first time today. Annie was sitting on the sled, watching them and one picked up the sled rope & started tugging on it. After that, they tried hard to get the pups to do it again and to actually pull the sled, but they just weren't smart enough (or strong enough!).

Dad came over and got James some new toys. James really loved it and so did Joe.

Our new family friend. He(?) came in the mail on Saturday, then moved to the dorms to hang out with Allison today. He'll stay there until he becomes a frog.

Madi asked if she could decorate the dollhouse. She went a little crazy with the pink paint. But, now I am motivated to begin refurbishing the house, repair the broken parts, put in lighting, and redecorate each room with fresh paint or wallpaper, and add furnishings. Hopefully I can stick with it for a while.
