Another couple days gone by!

Well, there really isn't too much exctiting to report from the last couple days. Just kinda living life. Tonight we went and got our family pics done. They came out really cute...as usual! Brynn has off school tomorrow and Fri. for parent teacher conferences. We go for ours tomorrow night. I can't wait to see how she is doing in kindergarten. The aid from her classroom said she has been great. They giver her more responsibility than the other kids in the room because she is such a good helper! She said they call her the little teacher, which doesn't surprise me!! Well, I'm very tired and about to fall asleep so I think I'm gonna head off to bed. More hopefully tomorrow!

Great Day....Bad Night!

Well, today we went over to Keith's parent's after church to celebrate Jon's 30th birthday. It's technically not until the 15th but we had to celebrate today. So, this is a pic of Jon with his gift/gifts from us. We decided that it would be fun to give Jon 30 different things and of each dif thing give him 30 of it. We do have pics of him opening all 30 items but that would take up way too much space and bore you. Some of the things we did were....30 squares of toilet paper, paper clips, tacks, m&ms, skittles, gummy worms, lots of dif types of candy, nails, pencils, markers, mini packs of tissues, happy birthdays (cut out 30 "happy birthdays" from a roll of party crepe paper) and many other things. They were all numbered so he had to open them in order (just for something fun to do). The last gift to open was 30 $1 bills all rolled individually and rubber banded.


So, it was a fun day celebrating Jon getting old! He really enjoyed his gift which made it well worth the time and effort put in to it. It was fun to do!!


Tonight, on the other hand! I have had better. Little Miss Brynn woke up around 11:15 with mess in her pants. Of course there was lots of drama with that because her bottom hurt. So, you can guess what happened. Brylee woke up!! Well, then she thought it was play time. Then she got mad cause we put saline drops in her nose for her stuffy nose. So, it was fun getting her back to bed! Of course this all went down in a matter of about a half hour but you know how it is when you are dealing with a situation...it seems like an eternity!! I wanted to ring Brynn's neck! If they only knew the extent of the drama they create! They have no idea!! Of course now, 10 mins later, it really doesn't seem that bad, and probably wasn't. It seemed like it at the time though! Oh well, now they are quiet as can be, sleeping away. When you look at them sleeping, they look so sweet and innocent and you almost forget the bad things....almost :-)


I guess that's about it for our exciting day. Now it's time for bed for me too! Gotta get rested up so I can deal with any drama that may come tomorrow. Don't do well on not much sleep. My patience is bad enough with sleep, it's really bad with not much sleep! So, off to bed I go. More tomorrow.

Two Fun Nights

Friday night we had alot of fun. We had a game night at church for the young adults. It was a good time! We got pizza and wings and just hung out for a bit and then played some games. We played Mad Gab, which is one of my favorites, and some people played the Wii on the big screen. Some played Monopoly, the new version. We left before some of the others since we needed to get the girls home to bed. It was really nice to laugh and have fun!

Tonight, well kinda last night (it's after midnight), we went to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Keith, my dad and I went. My mom watched the girls. We got 3 tickets from Keith's work to sit in the box for the show. It was absolutely incredible!! Definately hope to go again next year!!

I guess my mom had an interesting night while we were out. Brylee kept scratching her neck so she decided to clip her nails. Well, I guess she cut the end of Brylee's thumb on accident. Of course Brylee was crying. Then Brynn started in. She apparently went and got the bandaids and told my mom to put one on her. My mom said she didn't need one. Brynn then says, "We need to take her to the hospital. She is the youngest member of our family and you cut her!" She is sooo hilarious!! Then apparently my mom finally got Brylee to stay asleep in her pack-n-play and went over to take her meds. Well, Brynn poked her finger on what she called a pin and started screaming. Well, you can guess what happened. Brylee woke up! Poor mom!! What a zoo! Oh well, she was able to laugh about it.

Nothing too exciting

Well, once again, no pics for today. I know I'm slacking a bit in that area but at least I'm doing my blog. Really, there isn't too much exciting to say today. I did a little shopping this morning for Brylee. I had some rewards money and coupons so I was able to get her 6 outfits for around $18! I guess that, in and of itself, is exciting. Then I had to work for a bit, pick Brynn up from school and work for a bit more. My brother Roger and his fam stopped in for a bit on their way home from Maine. I didn't get to see too much of them cause I was working. Brynn got to play with Becca and Nicole a bit so she was excited. Tonight I pretty much crashed out on the couch and just woke up. I figured I better do my blog before heading up to bed so I don't get out of the habit yet again. So, off to bed I go! As I said, nothing too exciting. More tomorrow.

More fun painting

Well, I don't have any pics for today. It was generally a good day. My mom, Brylee and I took Brynn to school and then headed out for some grocery shopping and other errands. We took the groceries home, fed Brylee and headed out again. This afternoon I volunteered in Brynn's class again. More life size elf painting today. It was messy but fun! We came home and Brynn played with Austin and Lindsay for a bit. She wound up getting in trouble and was sent over here to our side. She wasn't very happy about that! I started feeling kinda crappy this afternoon and def got a cold. Keith got home late from work today so we didn't have much time together. Shortly after he got home I headed out to church for prayer meeting and praise team practice. After practice mom and I went tanning. Came home, checked the computer (of course!) and did some dishes. And that is about it for my exciting day. Right now I am the only one awake and am listening to Brylee making all kinds of sounds in her sleep! It is sooo funny! If I ever get a camera with video that has sound on it I can post it on here. Oh well, I am off to bed to try to sleep off a bit of this cold! More tomorrow.

Not much new

Well, today was a good day. I took Brynn to school this morning and shortly after I got home I got a call from her teacher. I was afraid she was sick and I needed to pick her up. Nope, she was asking if I could come in and help in her class because they had a cancellation last minute. So, I headed in to help out. It was fun! Of course I forgot my camera!! We painted life size elves of the kids. I go in again tomorrow to help. Not sure if we are doing the same thing or something different. So, I had to work a bit today which wasn't bad at all. Tonight Brynn and Brylee were snuggled in the rocking chair again. Look at the first pic...Can you tell they are sisters...LOL!! So, Mandy did the elfyourself thing today which is soooo hilarious!! I spent a good part of my evening try to make one for my bro and his fam. Finally got it done. The website wasn't cooperating! Anyway, Keith gave Brynn her bath and up to bed she went (after I was done messing around with the computer!). Then I headed out to go tanning with my mom.

Now, I'm messin around on the computer again and this is what is next to me on the couch?! Two sleepy heads!!!

Well, guess that's about it for today. Not too much exciting. That's ok though! More tomorrow :-)

Perfect Timing!!

Well, today was a pretty good day. Brynn is such a good big sister! She held Brylee for us while Keith was getting ready for work and I was getting Brylee's bottle warmed up. They are so cute together! Brylee just loves her big sister. I love to watch them interact! We headed out to take Brynn to school and Brylee and I went with my mom to have her blood work done. We decided to go to Bob Evan's for breakfast...yummy!!

Later in the day I was made aware that Mandy got her package I sent her. I saw her comment on facebook and then was told to read her blog. You can see what it said. I'm so glad that it was perfect timing and showed up on a day that she really needed a smile. Funny thing is, I paid for priority mail which was supposed to be there by Sat at the latest. I was a little aggrivated that she hadn't gotten it until today. But when I found out how perfect the timing was, I realized it was for the best! I wish the Bills were doing better so the magnets would have been a more exciting gift...lol! Oh well, what else is new! So, speaking of teams not doing so well...Keith and I got to go to the Sabres game tonight. He got box seats from work. It was fun but def not good! We lost 2-0!!! It was 0-0 until the 3rd period! Glad we didn't pay for the tickets!! Of course I forgot my camera for the game. Well, that's about it for today. More tomorrow!
