Is a year too long?

New adventures to come

Church

I like going to Church, the girls like going to Church.  They love going to the children's mass and learning all about our faith.  The lady that runs the program gave my DH a big compliment today and said our children are very well behaved and Kayleigh always helps her younger sister while they are there.

Today there was no Children's mass.  All 3 children had to be in the "adult" mass. 

Today would have been a good day to start drinking ..................................................

17 days

In 17 days Kayleigh and I will  get on a plane and fly to Tampa to visit with my brother and sister in law.  I can't wait. 

2012, the year of good things, I hope

I've decleared that 2012 needs to be the year of Kick ass things.  Frankly, we deserve it.  I try to be a good person. I'm friendly, helpful, caring and things like that, ya know?

The last 2 years have been horrible.  Horrible.  I mean like Alexandar and the horrible, terrible, no good day ,bad years.

But 2012 is going to change all that. 

Neat Craft

the girls made a tree today!  We used an old cardboard box that we found in the garage. We cut a large circle for top and a rectangle for the trunk.  We taped the two pieces together to make the tree. They then went on a leaf hunt to find a few leaves that have already fallen to the ground.  Then we glued the leaves onto the circle.  We found a few flowers to add as well and then they drew an "owl hole" and lines on the trunk and added grass and bugs!

Feeling a bit blue

I know in 30 years it won't matter if I have that cute item from etsy  or if I got that awesomely cute picture of the kids in their month to month oneies or other cute posed pictures.  But right now, I look at them and wish I had them.
I know what matters is my girls go to bed every night knowing that I love them and are so very proud of them.  I know deep down that is what matters most.

So I guess this means I'm a cheer mom now

Kayleigh has joined a cheerleading team.  She loves the uniform.  She loves practice.  She loves it all.  Somehow I got roped into being one of the team moms.  
Kayleigh likes to make up her own moves.  Audrey knows the cheers to, thanks to Kayleigh.
Don't you just love how the skirt is shorter than her shorts......I think it could fit my right thigh.
