Mama Files

So I've been neglecting the Internet lately (sorry fantasy baseball, facebook, twitter, blogger, etc.).

 A lot has been going on but nothing to really report on (only my other mommy friends might understand this statement).  I got my van last week...it's nice I guess, but I'm totally not feeling very cool while driving it (but while driving an old lady buick i managed to keep my coolness intact? Go figure!). Oh well, i guess convenience and space trump coolness.  

My kids are still being hilarious but i don't have the time or memory to chronicle everything. Sometimes I think I should just set up a nanny cam so that you all could get a better perspective on how cute/amazing/adorable my children are. But then the down side would be that you all  would experience how truly weird our little family is....the joking, the butt kicking in Guitar Hero, the piggyback rides through our tiny house...and that's just me and Marc. Sometimes I worry about how our children are going to turn out being surrounded by all this nerdiness...ha! somehow i think they'll survive! 

So anyhow here's my blog about nothing...ENJOY!

THRL News Update:

Our last (hopefully for the spring) batch of snow is melting quite nicely!

Xavier will be discharged from speech therapy at the end of this school year!!!! (YAY!!!) I don't think I've ever mentioned that he's been going into the local public school for speech therapy twice a week for the past 2 years. And although it's been a really great experience overall it still cuts out a rather large chunk of our school time. It'll be nice to not have to schedule that in next year, especially since I'll be teaching 2, eeek! (No idea how that's going to work)!

Gaius is asking, pleading, begging me to let him "go potty". I so don't want to be potty training again. I keep resisting just because he's my baby and the whole process is such an ordeal that I just want to put it off for a while longer (see this is what happens when you have 3 kids). But I think I've decided that the training will begin this summer and hopefully be over before September...we shall see.

I'm getting a minivan! It's nothing special, just an older one that my in-laws have hanging around. But it'll be nice to have some extra room and a defroster that works consistently. 

And last but not least! The snow is melting (am i repeating myself?) :-), the sun is shining, and our road is dry so I can get back to my running regiment! (woohoo!)

And I think that completes today's installment. What's up with you?

I think...

that my kids could win over any non-child-liking person. Because they're just that cool!
(lately I haven't been able to take a picture without the dog jumping into it...what a weirdo)
