I survived!!

Well, my 1st week at the new job has come to a close, and thank God--I survived!! I was so tired last night, a very mentally draining week, that is for sure! Not to mention, fb and cheer started back on Monday pm as well...we are all tired! So, last night Rob told me that his sis is engaged! I'm glad for her. R is the youngest of 3--and only boy. You know, not only the only boy, but also the baby boy...y'all know what I mean?(*wink*). I'm glad for her, she is 1 year older than R, and I'm sure she is excited. Here is the kicker---they got engaged like 3 flipping weeks ago, and he told me last night!!! Umm...I have a problem with that!Now I look like a #$%&@ b/c I have not even called her, sent a congrats card, nothing!!! I mean, seriously! So, today I am out to hallmark and in search of the perfect card...among other things I'm sure I "need" once I get there...(my obsession w/ purchasing cards, stationary...:)~e

When will it ever stop?!!

MATH-I am not good at it, therefore I dislike it greatly,I would say hate, but I don't allow the kiddos to say that word, so I will practice what I preach--this time... so, tomorrow am 7:30 sharp, guess what...that's right--a math & medication test--just my luck! So, in spirit of ummm...hating *cough* math & any and all studying in general I decided to make like, a top 5 list of things I'd rather be doing this evening(rather than study!!)

#5)cleaning...I know, my SL 'S' is saying WTH?She knows how much I despise cleaning, but guess what S, I'd rather clean...!

#4)SHOP!!!!yeah baby!!!(and I always need a new coach!) ;)

#3)watch GWTW---my fave movie of ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#2)lying on the beach, of course(w/ SPF no doubt)

And not to be out done-----#1)DISNEY!!! I would love to go for a 3 or 4 day weekend w/ Rob, my kids, parents, sisters and their families, and hell, anyone else who wants to go!:) However, due to lack of funds I don't see it happening anytime this summer...it will just give us something to look forward to!:)~e

busy, busy week ahead...

Whooohhh....I am already exhausted! Today was my 1st day of orientation at my NEW JOB!!:) (It went excellent, by the way). And, now this PM we are off to the 1st week of football & cheer leading, hello 2008 season, and good bye life--or whatever it is I have?! Recap of movies yesterday-Rob said that C laughed his head off at Get Smart. C has what me & mom(his Mimi) and infectious laugh-when you hear it, you can't help but laugh either. As for "the girls", our American Girl movie was precious!!That's the best I can think of to even describe it. I was born way before my time, I've said this often. But the movie only solidified this even more so. All the Mommas stayed home, and took care of the families, and wore dresses! That's really what I wish we(mommas of today) still did...*sigh*. Okay, so my son is giving me the look of death(all of you mommas of 11 y/o out there feelin' me?). I will post maybe later tonight, or tomorrow. Ta-ta for now.~e

movie date :)

This afternoon Rob, me, and kiddos in tow are heading to the movies.We are then 'splitting up' and going to see separate movies. The boys will go to a boy/more mature movie.And, well us a girls are going to see a more age/gender appropriate movie. Let's see if y'all can figure out who's gonna see what? ;)~e

Thankful..

Girls will be Girls!

Of course, K helped "host" the shower...and had a GREAT time with all the other little "hostesses"...~e

shower for Aunt C

Well, yesterday we had our shower for Aunt C, and it went great! As you all know, she has been on BR for the past 3+ weeks, first at the hospital, then sent home to continue BR, where she will remain until our lil' baby B decides to make his grand entrance! The shower was at her house(so she could attend), and it went off without a hitch. Everything turned out truly lovely! Enjoy the pics!~e
