Stacy - Happy Birthday Party weekend!! I so can't wait to see those pictures.
Katie - 6? As in a.m.? That is entirely too early. Although who am I to talk when we've been on soccer fields that early as well. UGH!!
Lindsay - Good luck with the intake on Monday.
Jac - I have to take notes to keep up anymore. lol
Tracy - She sounds like such a girl. Hope you got some good sleep. Ethan and I were doing battle over bed space and covers half the night. Then one of the cats woke me up twice clawing at the bed wanting up.
Lauren - I still mix in the "trashy" novels. Brain needs a break every once in awhile. And yeah, I often read the kids' books too. Can't help it...I get sucked in while I'm reading with them at night, but then I miss all the parts they read during the day. Happy house-cleaning! I'm doing that this afternoon too. And good luck with the shots.....thinking good thoughts.
Sooooo.....sounds like Grace's soccer team will be getting a new coach. But then this club has been known to get a new coach, then give the team back to the old coach a month later. I'm at a loss. Tryouts are Monday and Wednesday. I think we're going to have her try out, and then if her old coach gets the team back, we'll pull her. So much drama over a kids' team.

OMG, I'm so behind! Not even going to pretend to catch up.  Stacy - saw the pics on FB and they are ADORABLE! Looks like the party was great! Happy Birthday party day, Elim! I'm so out of it this week. Matt was home the entire week and on thursday was diagnosed with Strep. He's been on antibiotics for over 48 hours and still spikes temps over 103! Poor guy.  I worked from home all week but I really need to be in the office next week so he'd better kick that fever soon. And please, please, please cross your fingers that Kimmie doesn't catch it. You'll all read about some crazy lady in Detroit who jumped off her roof.

Jackie~ Did you say FB?????? Those pics were shared on FB while we're all waiting to see our might man Elim's party pics here???  STACY~~PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Happy Birthday Elim!!! Donna~ I don't blame you for not taking a chance with the crazy man again. That'll damage a kid for life!! I remember having a coach that totally killed my love for a particular sport.... good thing I got him last. Lindsay~ I hate that the situation has you hanging, but I had to giggle at the fact that there are job fairs in your area. There are NONE in my area at all because nobody is able to hire due to lack of money!! Good luck on the events Monday and on the job search as well. Oops....Jackie, I was in such a rant about that darn FB that I forgot to mention that I hope Matthew is better soon and that Kimmie has a Lysol fortress around her to keep her from getting it. Brrr....it's frigid down here!! I just got home from a friend's house and my car temperature said 25 degrees!!!! Seriously, last week it was 70! I'm not complaining because it is winter, but it's taking some getting use to for sure!

Lauren: Ouch!!! Which shots do ya gotta do? 17P? Donna: Is this the same old coach that was a jerkface last year? Ugh! Jackie: Hope that Matt feels better soon and Kimmie doesn't get it! Elim's been on antibiotics for an ear infection since last Friday, brought him in yesterday, and still infected, no better in fact! So a new antibiotic, and his temp was 100.1 yesterday, and 100.4 today! Not horrible, but still, it shouldn't be going up at all especially with motrin still in his system for that second temp! Tracy: You should get a facebook. We can name you Joe Schmoe and you can add only Share peeps, totally incognito and then you could see my pics right away. Same for you Lauren, only we can name you John Doe! Because I'm lazy, and don't feel like shrinking my files here's a couple pics, and here's the link to my facebook pics. I believe I left the album as public so you should be able to see it, let me know if you can't see em! It was a blast, so much fun and so worth all the work!

Oh, and the crayon thing on bottom is something Charles' friend made for me! I <3 it, definitely going up somewhere in the house! She's also one of a set of twins, and she's pretty awesome at doing thoughtful things like this. Not sure if you remember me posting about it way back when, she's the one who had the prayer blanket made for me like two years ago.

Donna- Ugh on the drama!
I had to work with a few fams this afternoon/evening so Lance took Micah to the drag races! Hope the boys are being safe! Back to organizing my office... it's never ending...

Stacy~ GREAT JOB!!!! Love the party pics and thanks for linking me to the "important" ones. I love the crayon art too! I've seen many on Pinterest, but none with the butterflies stamped in them. Ansley immediately asked if you could make her one!! LOL! Lauren~ Chocolate covered potato chips  I thought Trader Joes was suppose to have healthy alternatives......UGH!! Hope the boys enjoyed the drag races. Ansley always loves that event with her daddy too! Speaking of......guess who was back up at 5 a.m. with vomitting and diahrea.....again.  Um yep---the same kid who was up at 6:30 a.m. last week doing the exact same thing! Thankfully this morning she seems to feel fine, but good grief!

Lauren: Go right on ahead and finish the bag! If it will help calm your nerves, go for it. Normally, I would suggest Scotch or something, but yeah, chocolate covered potato chips are way better for you right now:)
Tracy: Sorry your little one was up sick. That doesn't sound good at all. Hope she stays feeling better.
Mountain of laundry almost tackled. So bummed about Whitney Houston. I was just singing one of her songs yesterday- "I get so emotional baby. Everytime I think of you-ou-ou." So weird. I still have the cassette to her singing the Star Spangled Banner. I feel bad for her daughter.

I dunno... woman had amazing fabulous wonderful talent... and I'll bust out "I waaaannna dance with somebody..." like the best of them... but um... she was also everything ya don't want your kids to grow up to be... drug addict... alcoholic... sad story, and totally sad for her kiddo.

Jackie- I hope matt feels better and that Kimmie does not get it. I am sorry but I seemed to have missed which job you decided to take. If you don't mind sharing. I love hearing about what everyone does.
Lindsay- I hope the intake and the job fairs go well. Both are so stressful. As tracy said, at least there are job fairs.
Stacy- WOW. That is a serious first birthday party. Congratulations, you deserve to sleep for a week..I hope everyone had as much fun there as we did looking at the pics.
Donna- I hope the soccer tryouts go well and the coach is nowhere to be found. I never understand why kids sports are a breeding ground for drama but they so are.
Lauren- Good luck with the shots. I hate all kinds of needles so I cannot watch but they are definitely for a good cause. I hope your house guests are lots of fun. Don't feel bad about the chips, I am currently addicted to somekind of popcorn chips from Costco, they are awesome
Liz- How was your trip?
We had snow this weekend and during abigail's ice skating lessons so that was fun. I am just glad that she is upright more often than she is on the ice now. So proud of myself. I am actually doing some of the cooking (basic) lately. Something I have never done before but it is going ok (at least is all edible) I am at work and headed home but wanted to see how everyone was doing. Sounds like you guys are a busy lot...
See you tomorrow.

Lauren: His next party will not be as crazy as this one, pinterest sucked me in and made me it's slave! Mmmm, send some my way, those sound interesting! Don't worry, I'm heartless too. Here's a couple recipes I found on pinterest! I loved the cheesy enchilada casserole especially. http://www.justgetoffyourbuttandbake.com/?p=3352 http://www.chef-in-training.com/2012/01/crock-pot-chicken-parmesan.html Tracy: Haha!! I've got no idea how to even begin with those! Rosie said it was kinda easy though, so maybe! Aww poor Ansley, I hope the nasties go away soon! Ellen: It was a blast!! He won't remember it, but we'll have tons of pics to show him at least! Sounds like a ton of fun with the ice skating!! OMG! So guess what! Elim decided he knows how to walk today!! It's so crazy, yesterday he wouldn't take a step on his own while he was paying attention! Today he just let loose! Still only like five steps max, but he's trying and it's sooooo cool to see him doing it, and without coaxing even!! I love watching him learn new things!

Morning ladies,
Weekend travels were nice. Visiting with friends and having girl time with no husband or kid were fabulous. Coming home and stopping at the Flight 93 Memorial was the best part of the trip. We couldn't get to the actual rock or wall of names, but it was nice. It was so windy and snowy at the tip toppity of the mountains, the park ranger said it was negative number temperatures and about a 300 yard walk to the impact site.
As for classes, I'm taking an Excel and Powerpoint class.
I did read all of the posts but have a 2 year old tugging at my pj pants....bbl

Oy - Monday. Ugh. So not feeling it. Rainy, cloudy, cold day which wouldn't be bad except I have PT, work in Ethan's class, and then G's tryouts tonight (yep, they will still go on in the rain). Still no updated info on who our coach will be. I'm terrified we're going to get there and it will still be them. Add to the fact Grace started a cold Saturday which is full force today. Poor child.
Jackie - Did I see on FB that Matthew is feeling better? Strep stinks.
Stacy - Sooooo impressed with the party. And walking? Just in time for his bday = awesomeness.
Lauren - chocolate covered potato chips? You're so allowed right now!
Liz - Glad the travels were safe and good.
Ellen - While you're freezing and sending, will you send some this way? I'm with Lauren - I feel like I cook the same things over and over and over again. BORING!!!
Tracy - Eye doctor? That is mean. I hate wearing my glasses in public.
Anyone find that laundry fairy? Kids' clean clothes are spread all over the couch.

Okay---the mean treatment continues.....they send you out of there with your eyes dialated and those goofy wrap around sunglasses to keep you from dying in the sun! The final verdict....I'm still blind, but just a bit more than before!  Thank goodness for contacts!! Donna~ Poor Grace! I hate dealing with colds when I'm not having to run around and show my skills. Add rain on top of that and UGH!! Okay---so far so good on Ansley today. She's playing with my nephews at my mom's right now. She didn't want to play the waiting game at the dr's office and is thrilled to be out of the house today! Shhh....me too!!!

Hope the eye doctor went well. Now I go to Panera to get a cookie and wait for my eyes to get back to normal. They probably think I am an addict based on the size of my pupils.
Ladies- When I say basic, I meant it. Turkey meatloaf (Paula Deen has a good one-no butter), pork chops, etc. DH has always done the cooking. He is much more adventuresome but since he took up the laundry when we moved. I was starting to feel a bit bad so I thought I would learn how to cook something besides tortellini (well at least not be terrified in the kitchen). I have always baked so my cooking phobia is a bit weird.
Yay for Elim!
Tomorrow I finish off the root canal. Wish me luck. Bad dentist appt today but good work and an awesome fitness class so it all balances.
Liz- Those classes will be great b/c I know here they are a must for any hire we make. Glad you had a good trip.
Good luck tonight Donna.

Hello Ladies, hope everyone is been doing okay, Im finally overcoming a horrible resp cold that I have had for over 2 weeks and felt as though I was not going to make it through. Last Friday we were given the news that a very dear friend of our family (although he has been more like family) had passed away on his 71st birthday! He was an amazing man and a deacon at one of the Catholic churches in our town, He would come to the hospital and pray over my FIL when he was in the hospital batteling cancer. He was just a very amazing man and Jadon loved him so much! today was the viewing and it was tough Im not sure how I made it through and really just want to go to sleep! Hope everyone has a great Valentines Day!
Love ya ladies!

Soccer tryouts cancelled for tonight. It's been raining since we got home from school. Relieved - last thing I needed was Grace out in cold (low 50's now), wet, windy weather for two hours.
Root canal - yuck!! Hope it goes well tomorrow.

Donna~ Yay for no nasty coach and even bigger celebration for the fact that rainy try-outs were cancelled!!! Anyone else watching The Bachelor this season??? I usually enjoy watching this show and laugh most of the way through at the craziness of the girls and guys involved, but this season is a bit disappointing..... Let me tell you another hilarious thing.....Valentine's Eve at Walmart in a small town!!!!!! You could not fit another person on the aisle and others were waiting for their turn. I swear, sometimes I need a bench in public just to sit and laugh.

Tracy-I am watching this season, nothing too exciting. We all know he's probably going to pick Courtney.
Donna-So glad the old coach is not back. We just made the league move Alex to her old t-ball team because she was put on a team with a crazy coach. I am not going to have her ruined that little!
Happy Valentine's Day! I hope that everyone has a wonderful day!
