Mary had her first dance recital and was way excited for it. She walked out, looked up, walked off. We finally got her to stand out there. Her second recital was one week later. I begged her to dance. I bribed her with a new barbie doll. Still I was not convinced that she would dance. Her teacher had told me that she did it really well. Mary told me that she was going to dance, she walked out with her class, and DANCED!!!!! I am so proud of her, she was so cute, and did a great job.

Not much going on...

I have been a slacker again at posting. I just don't have a lot to say. I am very, very tired, and nauseated most the time. Could be worse. Joe said that he was worried about me being so tired. I tried to explain it to him. I am only eating about 4-5 oz of food (protein) about 3 times a day, and the baby is taking most of it. That and my body is working very hard to help this baby grow. I am trying to eat more often, but it is hard when every time I eat I am nauseated for about 1-2 hours after.

On other things. Mary had her first dance recital at a Assisted Living Center. She was excited to do it and walked out then looked up and walked off. I helped her go back on and her teacher talked to her. She stood on the stage and just watched. Hoping that this Thursday performance goes better. Her teacher tells me she does the dance very, very well. Hope we get to see it. She is very cute in her costume, I will post a picture later.

Bobby is doing good, just having fun with the snow. He had his Music n' Me performance awhile ago and did an excellent job. He had a solo part and was so cute. He loves to sing. He can sing most of the Christmas songs that come on the radio. He has an ear for lyrics.

I am going to try and sleep. That is the funny part. I am really tired, yet can't sleep. I know, it is my bodies way of getting me ready for a newborn.

Rocking Chair for sale.

I am putting it on here first to see if any of my family or friends want it before I put it on KSL.
We got it from the Cracker barrel, and got dark green chushings. (don't know how to spell that)
I am going to sell it for $70.00. Please let me know by Friday if you want it.

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!! :(
