Bad timing

Brian has been bush~hogging Doyle's pasture for the past two days. He went back today to finish up, as he was working he came across a little bunny rabbit. So sweet. Brian was worried that it would get ran over by the tractor so he caught it and decided to bring it home for the girls to see. Not a bad idea over all....but he didn't get home until 9 pm. The girls should have been ready for bed but the bunny got them all excited and so here it is 11 pm and they just went to sleep. Oh well, learning experiences are valuable any time of the day :)

Celebrating 2 Years of Leora!

Tonight we had a small get together for Leora's birthday. We had a homemade cake, complete with the misspelled "Birthay" on it....Oh well, it didn't affect the taste. She got some clothes, a baby doll, a DVD/VCR player, and some $$!

Sweet Leora,

I'm so blessed to have had you in my life the past two years. I have loved watching you learn and grow. I can't wait to continue watching you become the amazing person I know you are. I love you so much! Happy Birthday!

Love,

Mommy

Seems like yesterday...

I was pacing around Union County Hospital trying to coax Leora Camille to make her grand appearance! Today she turned 2 years old! In some ways it feels like time has flown by and other days it feels like an eternity ago. She is a true blessing to our family. She made it complete, I'm so thankful that she is here with us, safe and happy.

Yeah...One of those.

Today has not been a great day. The girls woke up whiney, the house was a wreck, and the battery on my van died...I think. More like the alarm has gone haywire and shut the whole darn thing down. Once the van problem got solved we headed over to Nana's to eat salad and spaghetti. The girls did okay, Leora kept harassing the dogs and Lachlan pulled over Nana's plant and dirt went everywhere. Nana told the girls she would take them to the fair tonight. We'll see...they've already been to Lake Winnie and the Blue Ridge fair this summer.

I'm trying to talk myself into going to STEP tonight. I need to sweat. It's therapy. If I can only wake up!!! Red Line, Take me away!

Another Day...

Today was a busy day. Took the girls to Chic~Fil~A...Lachlan kept saying "Momma, can we go to Chicken Puh Lay???" It was too cute. My mom kept asking her "Where did you go Lachlan?" She'd get aggravated and say "Ah!! Chicken Puh Lay Nana!!!"

We also took some clothes over to Castaways for consignment. I hope they all sell. Really cute stuff that is too little for the girls but in great condition. Then we went to the gym, I taught KICK at 4:30...had a pretty good crowd of nine.

Now.... BEDTIME! I'm hoping the monkey's go down easily after the busy day we had.

Music feeds my soul....

I love music. I think in a past life I must have been a musician. But since I don't believe in past lives that is a moot point. I think back over my life and along with almost 99% of my memories some song is attached. Right now I'm seriously loving on Kings of Leon. Those guys are...I don't know an accurate word to describe them. Caleb Followill's voice gives me chills. Another guy I can't get quite enough of is Anthony Green. Old Saosin, Circa, or his solo stuff....~sigh~ Speaking of his solo stuff leads me to another amazing band Good Old War. Their harmonies are mind~blowing.

My girlies are visiting memaw & pepaw so I'm having some uninterupted computer time which is really nice. The floors are mopped and the dishwasher is doing it's thing....Now if the laundry would just do itself I'd be on cloud nine...Til Next time.

What am I thinking?

Exactly what do I need with a blog? I seriously doubt anyone would want to read about my day to day routine. On paper it would sound pretty bland, although at the end of the day it sure doesn't feel that way!

I guess I can use it for my own personal amusement...a nice little place to write down the clever things my girlies come up with before I forget! I used to have a LiveJournal, I still look at it from time to time and get a really good laugh at all the craziness that I'd get into. Well...we'll just see!
