The Ocean

Okay - so, that went well, but I ran out of room on the picture adding part, so here are some pictures of the ocean. Love you! Mom

Another Snow Day....

Well, it's snowing again! The snow on my back deck is piling up quickly, and Dad is going to have to shovel the snow off the balcony for fear it might collapse! I thought I'd take a minute to post some very lovely pictures of our trip to NC back in November. I thought I got some good shots of the ocean, and the kids! (hope this works....) Love you all! Mom

The Perfectly Random Wreath

This is a wreath I have been working on to go over my desk. Well , really I made it to enter in a yarn contest, but it will go perfectly over my desk. It is pretty big (18 in across ) and took me about 2 months to complete, because; #1. I have a slight case of OCD ( your shocked right) and i was having a hard time just making the flowers. My goal was to not use a pattern and just make up each stitch as I went. I was going for that " perfect- random" look. #2. There are these 4 kids that live in my house that think they have to eat like EVERY DAY. Not sure where they got that absurd idea. and #3. I have a procrastination issue to go along with my OCD issue. Strange combo I know, but I'm sure I have both!

I also learned a tiny bit about taking photos indoors. Probably won't win the contest, but It will be Ok cause I have something nice to hang over my desk that i wouldn't normally have spent the time or energy to make.

In completely different news, Briceson potty training is in full swing. Wile at Old Navy last night he began to holler " I need to go peepee!" I quietly reminded him he was wearing a diaper, and he very loudly told me " I don't wana peepee in my diaper" , so I'm guessing here but I think he is"ready" . He has worn a pull up all day and kept it dry. He even got down from dinner and went to the bathroom all on his own. We will see. EveyLynn insisted on wearing a pull-up too and it was wet with in 10 min. : b

As i was typing that last part he came over to tell me in a very straining type voice that he was going to poop, but he was just going to "do it in my pull-up. OK Momma?" Let the potty training fun began!

Love you all
