Weekly Posts Are Okay Right?

Well, another week closer to Christmas.

We are 18 days away and we haven't got the tree up, still need to wrap and generally a million other things to accomplish.  It wouldn't be Christmas without some stress right.  LOL

The kids have roughly 2 more weeks of school before their vacation. I think they are pretty excited. First Christmas in our new house. I know that I am.  Jenna starts her new job next week and I am finally getting over this blasted sinus infection that I have been battling for about a month.

Andrea has had a pretty rough weekend. While putting away groceries, I asked her to take some frozen stuff down to the freezer in the laundry room, She managed to slide/fall down the second half of the stairs.  I feel really awful for her, she is very sore.

Alyson had a much better weekned. Granted her bad weekend was last week. Nothing seemed to go right for the kid. This week at school she got 4 pink days which is awesome. Pink is the second to highest she can get for daily behavior.

This is the behavior chart:

Purple - top
Pink - great
Orange - good
Green - middle (always starts here)
Yellow - did something wrong (5 laps)
Blue - something more wrong (10 laps)
Red - Danger! Will Robinson (call to the parents)

Well, that is it for a weekly posting. Stay safe everyone.

First Snow of the Year in the Richmond Area

Well, my kids are happy.  They get to sleep in tomorrow since they have a snow day. We got our first snow of the year this weekend with any real accumulation.   We probably got around 3-6 inches, I'm not real great as measuring the amount. On an exciting note, we finally got to use the snow blower that we purchased last year. Yeah!!!!  We got it last year and then it never snowed again, doesn't that figure. LOL.  Well, Jenna and I took it out and dug out the driveway and front walkway in under 3 hours. Which is a vast improvement from the 6+ hours last year that Keith, Jenna and I worked to get the cars out. Alyson went out to play in the snow and lasted maybe 1/2 hour. She came in and told me she was done with it. She said that "you can't get anything done outside because it so cold".  That made me laugh. Dre didn't want anything to do with the weather. She has been closed up in her room as teenage-dom requires. LOL They called off work on Saturday bu...

Catching up yet again

I haven't been on here in so long. I have had a busy few months. I was working for a while but then our sitter quit. So I'm now staying at home with Aly and Andi. Aly is growing really fast and is talking up a storm. Some words are really distinguishable and some just sound like a new language. We are trying to potty train her and she is resisting. Maybe she's not ready. Andrea is in the middle of her own battle, her weight. For those of you who know us, she has always been little. Well, after speaking with the doctor about this issue, we were trying pedia sure. (That stuff is expensive.) Almost a year later she has only really gained like a pound. So now the doctor wants to have her blood checked for a thyroid problem. She may have hyperthyroidism, or that is what he is thinking. well, any thoughts are appreciated.
