This is fun!

This setup is much, much easier than the way I'd been doing it. I think my past method was the technological equivelant of talking through a tin can.

Today is going to be a more productive day than yesterday was, although I'm still dealing with a tweaky back due to some ridiculous ab excersises my gym had me doing. I tried to lay flat (a.k. on the floor) some yesterday, but I soon gave up. I'm sure you can imagine why. A Mommy laying down is a Mommy just begging to be jumped on/crawled over/jumped over (truly terrifying). I did get one sloppy, suspiciously slimy kiss from Abbie, which was sweet in an icky kind of way, but not enough to keep me on the floor.

What did one snowman say to the other?

"I smell carrots, too."

My to-do list is looooong today: the great clothes switch has begun (putting away the summer clothes, and bringing out the fall/winter ones -- this gets more and more monumental the more kids we have), I need to clean one of the bathrooms, the kitchen is a mess, we need to do school, I have to finish planning Katie's bday party.....

So have I opened a single box of clothes? Pulled out the bathroom scrub? No, I've spent the morning pouring over various Lost message boards. Those who know us well realize that Chris and I both have a tendency to obsess over various shows/movies/bands. I've yet to encounter anyone who has as large a library of MST3K tapes as we do, or who has gone to such lengths to aquire them. And Chris' X-Files collection is legendary, and the main reason I began dating him in the first place. :) Well, here we go again with Flight 815! I've discovered some very cool things about the show, but my kids are completely neglected, so I guess I'd better go.....do something with them.

This is not a blog

Well, not really. Don't look for anything profound coming from here! It will just be easier to write out little updates about the kids using this format, instead of tediously managing it the way I had been doing. Hopefully this ease of use will result in more consistant updates....at least, that's the way I'm hoping it will go. I'm going to put a link to here from our website, so this will be the new "updates" section. Plus, bonus!, you can leave comments if you want. Only nice ones though, please. :)
