Happy Birthday, Christina!
*Sorry if this post seems clipped, but I’m trying to do about twenty things before I go to bed, and Christina seems pretty restless tonight. . . .
Took Christina shopping with me, to get a couple of last-minute presents and cake and ice cream. Got a couple of white boards while we were out, […]

Scanning and stuff
Scanned a LOT of things for Kelly today. Her website is coming along really nicely, and she’s getting really excited about it! : )
Christina fell asleep at 2:30, so I didn’t get the kids until almost four. They were on the playground, and they wanted to know if Miss Effie had seen […]

Trees and Things
A man knocked on our door and asked if we were interested in having our limbs trimmed. He offered a price that we couldn’t refuse, so we took him up on it. He did a nice job, so we decided to have him do the rest of the trees as well; he […]

You can uncross your fingers now. . . .
We got the job!!!
We’re super-excited and can’t wait to get started!
We go in Friday afternoon, to pick up the materials, and then we have ten days or so to go through everything and come up with some sort of game plan. We’ll be checking in with them periodically to make sure we’re on the […]

We have a Wii!
My brother decided to surprise us with a big present to make up for Christmas and birthday presents that he’s missed in the past: boy were we surprised!
He called me first, to be sure that I had no objections to the kids having a Wii, then Fed Ex’d it to us. I didn’t […]

We started off the day with a phone call from Deb, (wishing Clint a happy birthday) followed in quick succession by phone calls from a lady we intended to buy a desk from (for Alexander), and from Curt; he, Ginny, David, Del, and Colleen sang Happy Birthday to Clint and then they were off to […]

Christmas
The good news: we weren’t up all night wrapping presents. (We had them done two days early this year!)
The bad news: we were up all night with a coughing, feverish baby. :(
Dave didn’t bring the kids over until almost 7 o’clock on Christmas Eve, and they hadn’t eaten dinner yet, so […]

Thursday, October 18
A few months ago we decided that if we were ever going to see Billy, Shana, and Dalton on a regular basis that we needed to have something scheduled, something that we could put on the calendar to make sure it actually got done. It’s worked pretty well, kind of. . . . […]

I don’t like it when my babies don’t feel well. . . .
Angelina was sick all last week: the strep test that they did in the doctor’s office came back negative, but the backup culture that they sent to the lab came back positive; of course, they didn’t tell us that until we were at the school this morning, and just about to leave — Angelina was […]
