Happy New Years ladies! I wish for you all a healthy and happy year filled with polite toddlers (HA!), helpful big kids (a girl can dream right?!) and more babies (for those who want them!) and none (for those who don't

). Love you women!

Good morning! HNY! We slept in this am. Left the girls at gmas. E, dh and I in bed together this am. Jeff is making brunch before heading off to work. He's doing a side job with his brother. Perfect timing as we have car ins pymnt coming up soon. I think I'm going to work on setting up envelopes and later dh and I are going to start our budgeting system. I see laundry and sewing in my future today as well, if I can muster the energy. lol

Happy New Year!!!!

I am so bad with even thinking about an envelope system. Way to go Vanessa!

Well, we'll see how long it lasts! hehe But so far today I've tackled purging the bathroom! lots of stuff went into the trash! Doesn't really look like I did much but I know it's done. feels good. many more rooms to tackle in the next month or two. Hoping to get little man down for a nap so I can do even more.

Going to work today kind of sucked... seems like we're the only place open. I literally answered the phone and said "yep, we're open until 7:30 tonight!" about 30 times. Ugh! I wish we could set up a recording on holidays!

Luke's home today so we're going to go check out a vehicle (that I don't want) and then probably watch some movies. Kids are back to school tomorrow.

Since Wayne works walmart (and the only day ours is closed is Christmas), I forget that other places actually close! I wanted to go to the library yesterday with the kids (more than a little stir crazy in here) but they were closed yesterday AND today. won't have thought librarians liked to party so much.

yes, I'm a dork.

Christmas went very well. Between grandparents, friends from church and finally our own presents, feels like we had christmas 4 times...so sydney is all confused that christmas is done and there are no more presents for a while. but they are all really happy with what they got, so that makes me glad.

elijah's fav present from grandma and grandpa

kezia (with bad bedhead and peanut butter face) laughing with daddy after discovering that her finger fits into her nostril.

sydney falling on her butt in her 'new' skates. tied a small pillow onto her with a dress up costume.

very excited

awesome batman for $2!

anyone else thing she looks kinda like that grumpy cat pic that's going around?

kezia at 16m and a few days...and sick, poor baby was just miserable.

Lol grumpy cat. Yeah, um I might Greg pics up idk. Yesterday was busy and today I have a long to do list. Kids are still sleeping. My house seems like I will never get it clean ! Ugh! Evan is going to drive me nuts with his constant dumping of toys. I hate having toys downstairs but there's not much room upstairs and I can't leave him up there all day if I'm working down here. We don't have an area that I could block off either. Sometimes i miss my old house layout. Oh well. We are hoping for some good storms this spring so we can put away some money go finish working on the house. That would be awesome. Ok need coffee. Gotta get moving!
