Tuesday Thoughts

We are finally all well again.
Kalee was miserable last week.
Sick from Wednesday to Sunday.
NOT FUN
Ear infection, sinus infection and the flu...ouch!
She is still coughing, but on her last day of antibiotic and doing much better.

The school Christmas Concert is tonight.
I think this is something that most parents dread...
I am totally looking forward to it!
Can't wait to watch Peyton sing her Christmas songs on stage!
She won't tell me what she is singing.
Says it's a surprise.

The Homestead has a fireplace and one tub (sitting in the garage awaiting install!).
It's coming right along (I say that all the time.)
Our french doors for the dining room and walkout basement were ordered wrong.
They open in, not out like they should.
The dining room door has been installed and will have to be taken out.
Of course, it's my fault...why wasn't I there before they put the door in?
Oh well, I'm used to being blamed.
So they have to be taken back and redone to open the right way.
All of the windows are in though! 
I have pictures, just not right now. 

I am still working on figuring out my new camera.
I am in love with it.
I think it takes pretty awesome pictures.
The lenses and focus points are what I am trying to figure out right now
There are so many things you can do with it...my goal is to work on a different function every week.
Maybe in a few years, I will have it all figured out!

My Katie is having surgery today on her elbow.
She was in a bad ATV accident two years ago and severely messed up her shoulder.
All x-rays, scans, etc stopped at her elbow.
So she has been having pain there for awhile now and the surgeon decided that they probably overlooked her elbow when they were trying so hard to fix her shoulder.
So now they are going in and trying to fix the problems in hopes that her pain will diminish.
She has another long recovery ahead of her.

Peyton was invited to her first sleepover this Friday.
She is so excited.
I hope she is as excited about it when I drop her off as she is now!
I'll let you know how it goes!

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...
