Cold!!!!

We Had Too Much Fun!

Yesterday afternoon found us at the tail-end of vacation and the tail-end of some one's limit. I was seriously cracking up watching her dominating the back seat. With her little fur coat on she was like a miniature matriarch. The little tyrant sat back there & ruled over her two (much older) siblings.

We had busy, full, wonderful, tiring days. I was so busy living that I took very few photos. Unfortunately. The ten nights of vacation found us in other people's beds half of the time. Three of the five nights we were home we had company.

Little bug slept until 9:30 this morning. She was quite dismayed to wake up to an almost empty house. She shuffled through all the rooms looking for fun people to play with only to discover she is stuck with me. Hope you all had a happy new year!

BLARGHHHH!

Blogger won't let me post my videos of my kids' adorable school programs. The blog post I had in my mind isn't going to work & I don't have the energy to re-think it. Half of our supper company for tonight canceled on us. After I had two roasts cooking & dessert already made. Speaking of dessert we made cookies last night & my kids won't stop asking me for one. Even though I've said no multiple times in multiple ways. They've even resorted to making the poor innocent baby come & ask me. Right now they are upstairs putting everything they find on the floor into a garbage bag. I'm that sick of their mess. I might even go put it in the garbage can when they are done. It wouldn't take much to push me over that edge.

Videos

Anyone else having trouble uploading videos? The last few times I've tried I've gotten an error message. I'm not doing it any different than I used to. This is very frustrating......

Signs Of The Season

The gingerbread (high fructose corn syrup) house we made at school today.

Listening to the Christmas carol station.

The Girls Part Two

The one in the foreground is a holy terror today. I think her goal is to see how many time-outs she can achieve during a days work.

The one in the background really is sick now. When she went to the school nurse yesterday neither myself or the nurse believed her. She proved us wrong after she got off the bus yesterday.

Sigh......

The Girls

I don't think she's really truly sick. We'll call today a mental health day.

Excuse the crusty nose. I just had to show you her beautiful eyes. I'm in love!
