and now I have to put all the crap away by myself!".... per Ashlee when I asked her to pick up her toy room yesterday. I had tears I was trying not to laugh so hard. No question where she gets that from (me!- though I guess I could say worse)
Just thought I would pop on and say hi- it feels like it has been forever since I have been on here. We had the girls birthday party this weekend. I cannot believe how amazingly generous everyone was with the donations they gave for CHaD. I am trying to set-up an appointment to bring everything to the hospital during our August vacation. The girls already said they want to do the same thing next year. It makes me so proud. When I get around to it- I plan to take a picture of them with all the donations- I'll make sure to post it.
Haven't had a chance to catch ip on posts.- hope all is well with everyone.
Re: "First I have to carry all the crap upstairs by myself,
Hi you- I can't believe how big Jack is getting! It goes too fast.
I actually was on vacation last week (just me and the girls)- we went to Winnepesaukee for 3 days- it was so fun, and the whole family will be off the first week of August. We are going to the RI Jazz festival on Sunday (Buffett is headlining and the girls have been dying to see him) and we'll stay over and hit the Roger Williams Zoo on Monday. Then the only other thing we have planned is to go to Storyland. Other than that- relax in the pool!
Yes, I was so proud that the girls decided they didn't need any gifts this year and wanted to collect donations instead. People were CRAZY generous. It was so nice. Madison was really sick when she was 1 1/2 and was in the ICU in Lebanon for 6 weeks- so she wanted to collect for the hospital there. I thought that was really sweet. I asked them if they were second guessing their decison (after they were opening everything to see what people brought) and they said "No Mom- what would we do with all this stuff and think how happy it is going to make the kids up there" I'll admit I teared up- they are good girls.
Yes, I am still looking. There may be a different position available here after the fall- so I am going to keep my fingers crossed. It would be no nights or weekends. I will miss the weddings- but it is time for a change.
How have you been?

Wow you guys are busy bees! Sound slike your relaxing vacation is gonna be quite hectic too, but in a good way! Buffett is playing here on my bday and I would love to go, but not sure we would be able to find a sitter!
I'm alright, feeling kinda crappy these last few days, not sure what's going on, I am worried I am getting an infection again as aches and pains were the start of it last time, so keep your fingers crossed for me please! I just want this all behind me already!
Well enjoy your next vacation!
Hahaha!!
My DD says to me today. I am sooo not a fan of grownups. Well. Except you and daddy.
