So Tired!

Okay, so it's 8:00 in the morning and I am sitting here writing a blog. For many of you this does not seem too absurd, but for me...I am not usually up quite yet :) Why am I up you ask? Hmmm lets just say a little someone has been getting up far to early this past week. Why? I do not know. I thought maybe her room was too bright for her in the mornings so I put an extra blanket over the window to block out the light, but this morning I realized that's not the problem. Who knows, maybe she just wants to be an early bird now...but I sure hope not!

So yeah its 8:00 and lets see what I've accomplished so far:
watched Elmo
cleaned kitchen
swept and mopped
did some laundry
cleaned part of the bathroom
and I even made pancakes for breakfast!

I must say I am quite proud of myself. I don't usually get that much done in a whole week! :)
Anyways Janey has finally gone down for an early morning nap, so I think that I will take one as well

When will it end?

Will this winter ever end? Every morning I wake up dreaming of a nice sunny day, hanging out outside or going to the park, only to have that dream shattered when I open the blinds and see the rain...AGAIN! I am so sick of sitting inside all day trying to find ways to entertain Janey...unfortunately I have found that the t.v. works quite nicely. Now all day she asks for Elmo or Signing Time, too bad I have turned my daughter into a t.v. addict! Hopefully she will forget all about it when it gets warm and we can be outside all day long..yeah right! If anyone has any fun activities to do on rainy days...PLEASE let me know!

Our Trip



















Okay it's been a long time since I have posted. It started out that I was just too busy on vacation to post...but now it's just laziness! So we had a fantastic trip to New York. We went to visit my sister who lives on Staton Island, and my mom met us there as well. We drove up to Palmyra and were able to see all the Church History sites. That is something I have always wanted to do and it was truly amazing seeing where it all began! It really helped to strengthen my testimony. We also went to Niagra Falls...It was so beautiful but extremely cold!! Then on our last day we went into Manhattan and just walked around. There's just something about big cities that are so exciting! I wouldn't want to live in one forever but I think it would be fun for a couple of months. There is just so much to do and see...and I love seeing all the different types of people :) That night my mom watched Janey while Kevin and I went to see The Little Mermaid on Broadway! It was such an amazing date! I will admit that I was not that excited to see The Little Mermaid but afterwards had no regrets. It was an amazing show...and the things they did with the props and everything were amazing!! So if anyone is thinking about seeing The Little Mermaid...I highly recommend it! It was a great trip but after all that traveling I feel like I need another vacation...just the kind where you sit at home and do NOTHING! :)

Big News

Okay so the big day has finally arrived that we get to find out what we are having. Kevin thought we were going to have a girl and I felt like we were going to have a boy. Needless to say, my mothers intuition was correct this time and we are in fact having a BOY!! Guess we will have to buy some blue since all we have had in our house is PINK! I am definately a pink girl so this will take some getting used to for me, but I am very excited :) The Doctor said that everything looked great and that he is right on track. We are very thankful to be so blessed

Snow in March?

I can't believe that it is actually snowing...I have been looking out the window and watching the snow fall all morning long. You may think that I am crazy...but I am actually enjoying it and finding it pretty refreshing compared to the rain we always get! Janey was pretty enthralled with it as well...she sat mesmerized during breakfast just staring out the window (she has rarely seen snow fall from the sky!) I tried to teach her how to say snow, but all it comes out as is "Oh"...I thought it was pretty cute :)
And what is it about snow that makes me want to bake and have a nice comforting warm snack? Does anyone else feel this way? Maybe it's that I feel like it's Christmas, and you can't have Christmas without yummy food! Anyways enough of my going on about nothing...hope you are all enjoying the snow as much as I am!

Am I losing my mind?

Okay, so yesterday I had some tacos for lunch and I put some sour cream on them. Later last night as I was going to put something in the microwave what do you think I found? That's right...the sour cream container. How I got the fridge and microwave mixed up I have no idea. Thats not the only time its happened to me this past week...earlier I also found myself trying to put ice cream back into our cupboard...luckily I caught myself on that one, that could have been disastrous! Seriously though...I think I am losing my mind
