What a MESS!!

I thought I would try this out. I heard about this on The Lazy Organizer, go check her out, she is great. I just took an Organizing Class from her and learned a lot, not just about organizing.

So I had to get my carpets cleaned and didn't have enough time to fully clean so this is what happened. I had to get everything off the floor and it took about 2 days to dry, because of the cold. Me and the kids have been sleeping on the couch, which the kids love.



Now comes the job of going through everything and putting it away. I am going to get rid of a lot. I am going to be selling a lot of things to so stay tuned. I have already gone through the kids toys and got rid of a lot.
Wish me luck!!! I am going to need it.

I hate the Dentist!!!

I really like my Dentist, but I hate going. I have had a tooth ache for about a week so I went in today to see what was up. I have two cavities right by each other. One is very deep and he drilled it and put a temp. filling in until next week and then he will fix both. The filling he put in has some thing in it to take away the pain. He hopes he can fix it with out doing a root canal or pulling the tooth out. YUCK!!! My cheek and gums are raw. I don't like going to the dentist, but I need to go more than once in 5 years. Bad me!! :(

Bob and Mary telling our new exciting news!!!
We are all way excited, and Bobby is counting
down the days!

The Test!!!! We just found out today! I was making the sign for Joe with the kids and I had Bobby read the sign to me, which took a little bit of practice. When he finally understood what he was reading, he said, "I don't know why, but I am really, really happy and I want to cry." Which he did, which made me cry. We had a whole bunch of balloons on the kitchen floor with things written on them, like 'It's a ???' - Then I called Joe to see when he was coming home and told him the kids were doing arts and crafts and had a surprise for him. He came in and looked at the balloons and said whats this? The kids ran in with the poster saying Dad Dad Dad!!!! Joe is very excited, to say the least, he has been very, very baby hungry for along time. I am due around the 20th of July, my daddy's birthday!

A new cousin!!

Saffron, she is a very sweet baby.

The kids are very much in love with her. Bobby wanted to hold her all the time.

Mary couldn't stop looking. It was a lot of fun to be up with family and to meet this new little one in our growing family.
