You should have bought a lottery ticket...

Well, I turned the house upside down...looked everywhere at least twice, then Matt looked in all the same places. I called and called the phone trying to hear it. I called the pool and Target. I drove back to the pool to see if it was in the parking lot or locker room. Nothing!! I finally decided that maybe I had put it on top of the van and drove off with it there. Now why I would have done this, I don't know. I have never done it before. So I took a walk for about a mile looking on the side of the road. Decided to take a bike ride and went about 7 miles (I said 5 on facebook, but clocked it this morning...it was 7) turned around and started riding back. Got pissed off when some other biker rode by me and yelled at me for being on the wrong side of the road. Mind your own business buddy, my phone's not on your side of the road! Then miraculously, there it was. Sitting in the tall grass on the side of the road. So HA! Mr. Biker, if I had followed your rude advice, I would still be without a phone! It is even still perfect. Not a scratch on it. The case is a little banged up, but I will take it! I couldn't believe my luck, until I continued my ride home and there was a guy in his yard picking up a 4 foot long dead snake to carry to the creek. It was at that point that I decided this is truly NOT my lucky day and started pedaling much, much faster to get away from the snake man and his snake yard.

We went to swim lessons today again and I have decided I am done with them. The girls basically hate them and I am tired of trying to coax them into not crying and participating. I don't think they have smiled more than once each the entire 6 days we have gone. So no more. Surely I can teach them the same things in our pool here where they might at least have fun.

Peyton quotes of the day:
S: "Can I have a kiss this morning?"
P: "No, I don't have any kisses left, I gave them all to Nan...I could try to find a hug though."

And another one:
P: "I am just going to take my clothes off, go on stage and dance. It will be fun."

And Kalee Jo:
After seeing Peyton take her clothes off, starts stripping down..."Mommy...my boobies!! Big ones!!"

Yes, they are 4 and 2. Why do they both have stripper tendencies? I am officially worried!

I Hurt

I hurt my back. It hurts bad. I can hardly nod my head without it hurting. I don't know what happened. But it hurts in case you didn't get that. I took some drugs and have been laying on a heating pad, so it is feeling a little better. I need to run, but just don't know if that will happen tonight. This puts a cramp in my training! (That's my sob story of the day.) ****** Last night Matt was telling me how he just puts Kalee in bed and she stays there and will fall asleep. So I let him show me. Well, he put her in and she started crying and crying. Then we heard her get up. She went into the bathroom...don't know what she did in there. But she came out and closed the door, then went back to bed. We then heard her yelling Blankies, Blankies!! Stuck, Stuck! So Matt went in and got her blankies unstuck and put her back down. She cried some more, then we saw her nightlight go out and heard her door slam shut. She then went into Peyton's room and had a chat with Peyt...

Day 2

Day 2 went just as well as day 1 of Preschool. It seems too good to be true! Oh well, I'll take it! Peyton went right in and did her "jobs" (putting away her bag, folder and picking her drink). Then she went to play with a puzzle and read a book. No tears, no clinging, AWESOME!! Kalee was upset again that she didn't get to stay. She kept saying I want to play with the tractor puzzle at school. So she and I spent the morning playing outside. It's so funny how happy she is once we get home. I think she loves not having the competition for the toys or the bossiness that is Peyton telling her how to play! She had every baby out and every stroller with them. Plus, her tricycle, 4 wheeler, shopping cart, firetruck... I have a new TV obsession...Melrose Place. Sad, but true. I watched it last night and am hooked. Can't wait for next week! There may be a problem though...I think it is at the same time that DWTS is going to be on. Speaking of DWTS...di...

Sunny Monday

We had a fun day today. After Peyton got upset that Daddy and Pop were going to the ball park without her...it was a boys day...we decided to have a girls day. She told me that on girls days, you read stories and sing songs. Well, we haven't done any of those things yet, but we did swim a little in the freezing cold big pool. Then the girls swam in their little pool. They both brought their babies to the pools, so they had fun. I put the solar cover on the pool as soon as I got them out of it!! It's amazing that they don't ever think the water is cold! Peyton sliding with her baby Kalee "swimming." She sat in this little bucket for about 10 minutes! We had lunch and the girls napped. Then we went to the mall play place. I gave them the option of the playground and feeding the ducks or the play place. Peyton wanted the play place. Really, I think they have more fun playing on the little cars that move when you put money in them. They don't even need them to...
