Day 55

Thursday, February 24, 2011
Today's POTD is the book I am reading.  Actually I am almost done with it now.  I actually read it pretty fast for me.  I have read all the others in this series and have really enjoyed them.  It's not Twilight, but still a good vampire series.  Now I have to wait for the next book to come out in NOVEMBER! I guess good things come to those that wait, Right?

Day 54

Today Riley's teacher sent home a worksheet to practice his full name.  It is a little "weird" for them to be learning cursive in kindergarten, but it is really neat as well.  He has his first name down, and now we need to get busy working on the last name.  Not too bad for starts!

Day 53

Today I noticed that we have crystals from the ones Riley and Ron decided to grow.  It didn't take two weeks like the package said it might, but Ron wasn't sure that he did it completely right in the first place.  This picture isn't the best, but they did get crystals, so that is pretty cool.

Day 52

Happy President's Day!  Today we met my sister and her kids for lunch at Chic-fil-A, and then we went shopping together for a little while.  The boys just love Auntie La and her kids, so it is nice when we all have a day off and can get together.

Day 51

YEAH ZACH!  He finally let me put the "sticker" in the roof of his mouth.  We have been going through "tongue therapy" with the speech therapist at school for some time now.  We are trying to re-train him and his reverse tongue swallow.  The therapist gave me trachea patch to punch out and put on "his spot" on the roof of his mouth, so that his tongue will automatically go there and eventually stay up there instead of being lazy.  Well he is totally opposed to having things in his mouth that he didn't put there himself.  But today he finally let me put it there.  He didn't leave it very long, but we are making head way finally!

Day 50

Today, I picked up Mom and we went to Castle Rock Factory shops looking for new bras for me.  I ended up only getting one, because I REALLY had to have one, but was pretty sure I could get them cheaper online.  I did find a good deal on shoes for the boys (I hope they fit) and some school uniform pants for Riley.  It turned out to be a pretty good day with Mom.  We hit Archiver's on the way home and did their make -n- takes.  I came home to freshly cleaned carpets.  Our carpets are the wrong color for a house full of boys, but because we aren't ready to replace the carpets, a good cleaning always helps refresh them!  Thanks Babe!

Day 49

This is the way I spent my Friday night.  Ron worked late, so I set up my cropping stuff and grabbed the little DVD player and had a Julia Stiles marathon.  Problem is, I watched 3 movies (that I had seen multiple times before), and only got one layout (almost) done.  That is not a real good track record for getting albums done, but the movies were GREAT!
