Is it Friday yet?

I know that it is only Wednesday, but I really want it to be Friday! Lauren woke up 4 times last night, and was up for good around 5:15. This makes for a very tired Mommy! On top of being tired I am fighting a sinus infection (I think?) and my ear hurts. Ok, enough whining for now.... on to the real reason for the post.



Megan is growing up so fast. She is doing so well with the nighttime potty training, she is learning so much every day, and she says the cutest things! I need to start writing them down, because of course I forget them them by the time I want to scrapbook or type up a blog post. She has started bargaining lately. Eric or I will read her a story before she goes to bed, and then we leave the hall light on so she can look at some books in bed until she falls asleep. She will ask for another story and start to bargain. "If you read me one more story I promise I will go to sleep" .. and then we say "If you do not be quiet and go to sleep we will turn the hall light off".. "but Mommy, if you read me just one more story I will go to sleep... please?" (Ok... sometimes it works, but we try to be firm!)

Pictures

2008_02_23_0090_edited1Ok, Eric has been bugging me about putting new pictures up, so there is a new album on the right. Unfortunately the truth of the matter is that I have been really bad about taking pictures lately. So I was good and took a couple of pictures tonight.



Megan's reward for having a week of dry nights was a new princess dress, and of course she chose Cinderella. 



When she is in one of her princess dresses you have to call her "Princess Megan". What is funny though, is if you call her "Princess" when she is not in one of her dresses she will correct you and say" I am not a princess, I am just Megan"

Relay for Life

I am the co-captain of the Booz Allen Hamilton - Leavenworth Office- Relay for life team. Our event will be held June 6th at Abeles Field. Of course I will be harassing all of my friends and family for donations. If you would like to avoid the harassment you can go here Kelly's Relay for Life Page to donate to the cause.



I will have more information about the event and fundraisers as we go along, but I wanted to get this out there since we got the website set up for online donations. Thank you all for your support!!

Laptop Totes

Who would have thought that I would have such a hard time finding a laptop tote that I like! The only requirements are that is have a shoulder strap and be pink (yeah yeah, I know... but I love pink!)



I found a few that I like on ebags.com. So Eric... I have been asking for a laptop tote for 2 years now, and you have 2 good gift giving occasions coming up (Valentines day and Mother's day).. hint hint!

Besides being extremely excited about our cruise next year there is nothing else really going on. Did I mention how excited I am???

A family affair...

It seems that everybody loved our idea of a cruise and now we will have quite the group going! Mom and Dad, Dwayne and Carla, and Amanda and Billy have already booked their cabins. Jason, Kendra and the kids will be booked when their tax return comes in. Mom and Dad are going to call and invite Russ and family as well. Logistics aside, this is going to be so much fun!
