Leap Year 2008

to think if I was born on 2/29 in a leap year I wouldn't be as old as I am :)

I can dream, can't I????

winter, winter, go away.... so much snow has been coming our way...

tired of cold, tired of snow, will it stop? no no no

What Delight!

who would have thought that a package of Jiffy Pop pop-corn could cause such delight?

A few weeks ago I bought a few packages at Target in their dollar section and today the kids asked for it for snack.

Well when they saw the foil expanding from the popping of the kernels their eyes grew wide and the giggles and laughing started.

Mental note to self: when the kids are cranky, pull out some popcorn!

Exhaustion

So busy lately...let's see what's been going on at our place.

Marissa lost her first tooth on Saturday. She was so excited, but truthfully she kept wiggling it. We were at Game On a Girl Scouts Event at Pitt's Petersen's Event Center and their women's basketball team during the day and she was remarking how loose her tooth was and I said "it should be falling out soon". Sure enough that even while she and Dylan were rough-housing with Larry she came up with her mouth bleeding. I started yelling out Larry that he's too rough with her and that he'd given her a fat lip and then we realized her tooth was missing. It fell out and she didn't even feel it. The toothfairy brought her $5 and she was so excited. She had her check-up at the dentist yesterday and she has one more loose tooth and her new teeth are coming in already and will be pushed up into place soon.

Sunday Marissa nd I went to see the Hannah Montana Concert movie. Before we went we stopped at the mall and I saw that Value City was going out of business and having a huge sale, so of course I went shopping :).

When we came home I found out that Dylan gave himself a haircut :(. So Tuesday I took him to get it corrected and we ended up buzzing off most of his hair.

Monday I interviewed with a company for a per-diem nurse recruiting job and it went really well, but I don't think I'm going to take it if offered. Salary will be low and there's no flexibility with working from home.

I registered Dylan in Deer Lakes Nursery School for pre-school next fall. He will be going Tues & Thurs mornings and tonight while Marissa & I are at Daisy's, Larry will be registering her for Spring Soccer.
