Monday, Monday..........

Well, the weeks are flying by. Lindsay is counting down to her birthday and is very excited!
I have been doing well with my daily Bible reading!
Not so good with the walking!
Ugh, could someone give me a shot in the arm of ENERGY!!?
Jacob is doing well with his guitar class. He sounds really good, I hope he sticks with it.
The twins are doing well, Ian has had a little set back but nothing major. He really does better
on sunny days. Dylan is honing his social skills and not quite as interested in academics!
I am getting to work on our taxes...........Turbo Tax!! I highly recommend it!
I have another little online shop that I am working on. Baby Luv. I am in the process of stocking it.
Please take a look!
Have a great week!!

DATE NIGHT!

Last night was Date Night! YIPPEE!
Doug's sister, Laurie came over to babysit! The twins screamed their heads off in glee when she got here with her "Mary Poppins" bag!! She always has all kinds of healthy snacks in her bag for the kids, NOT!!! She is their sugar queen!
The kids adore her and Ian was mad that we came home too early. Well!
We went to see 27 Dresses, very good movie!!
And then grabbed a sandwich at Subway! YUM!
We got home fairly early as it was snowing like crazy!
I love Date Night.

Legs & Feet.................

I was sleeping the other morning and then awoke to feet hitting the floor right above me. I thought, "Oh, no.........one of them is up."
I looked at the clock--6:ish, too early, go back to bed!
Then I heard another pair of feet hit the floor and then another and then running........running down the hall and then the stairs.
Ugghh..........they're up, except Jake....one nice thing teenagers do for you is sleep as late as you want them to!
My first impulse was to be annoyed........why can't the little buggers sleep til 7, for pity's sake! But then God gave me this thought- "Three healthy children, six healthy long legs and six healthy feet to run down the hall and down the stairs. What do I have to be annoyed about? And then there's Jake- his two healthy very long legs still sprawled out on his bed. Thank you so much, Father for healthy little buggers that wake me up at 6:ish!!!"
And thanks for changing my thought pattern. :)

Some funnies I found today..............

Ok, my life and therefore my blog is pretty boring lately...........sorry!
So, I found these cute little things in a magazine and thought I'd share them here!
1. Why is it that if someone tells you that there are a billion stars in the universe, you'll believe him, but if he tells you a wall has wet paint, you'll have to touch it to be sure?

2. Deep in the jungle, why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?

3. If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?

4. If money doesn't grow on trees, then why do banks have branches?

5. Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours?

6. Ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face he doesn't like it, but when you take him for a ride in the car, he sticks his head out the window?

These are from a book 1,001 Smiles by Marion Kaplinsky

Don't expect this every day! Hahaha!

Here are some pictures of my 3 wee ones.....







For some reason, Jacob will not participate in the "jammy pictures".........go figure!
Anyway, here are the 3 little ones in their new jammies on Christmas Eve. They always get
new jammies and a book to open on Christmas Eve. They love it!! Jacob gets the same thing but as I said..........he won't get in the picture!
ALSO, some outdoor pics taken on Christmas eve! Yes, my kids do own snow pants! :(
