A picture really IS worth a thousand words!

Last week, after finally giving in to the fact that our little Sara isn’t as little as she once was, we decided to head down to Ikea and get Sara her first ‘Big-Girl’ bed; a big twin-sized bed with large drawers underneath and a pretty Princess bedding set. Sara was a trooper; we talked about it the day before and explained to her that she was growing up and needed something bigger. We also decided to tell her that we would eventually move her into the bigger bedroom (my old office) when the time came for her to have a new baby brother or sister. She was a little bit reluctant at first, but when she realized that she would be able to make some of the ‘design’ decisions, she got very excited. She’s already decided on the color of her eventual new room!
A week later, Sara hasn’t looked back. She loves her new bed and her ‘rearranged’ bedroom. She has a place to read her books and listen to her music. If only we could find a nightlight that doesn’t produce ‘scary shadows’…
I’ve been working on the site for the past few days, upgrading some things ‘under the hood’, as well as giving the whole look and feel a total overhaul. I’ve got a few more things I want to add in regards to functionality, but the look of the site is about where I want it for now. Hopefully, all this work will give Amy, Sara and I some incentive to try to be more consistent with posting to our site…
Wow. Just yesterday Sara and I were playing on the deck in short sleeves. It made it up to 70 degrees. Today, on the other hand, is a different story. It’s 28 degrees, windy and snowing. Ack! Make it stop!
Whoooohooooo!! My sister Sally is getting married! Mike and Sally got engaged over the weekend and we’re all very very happy for them. Mike is a wonderful guy and will be a great addition to the family.
Sara turned 3 today! What a great birthday she’s had. Right now she is fast asleep, worn out from the days festivities. Happy Birthday Sweet Sara!!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday dear Scot-ty
Happy Birthday to YOU!!
(Tell Eric he’s taking you out to lunch today!)
Guess I’ve been a complete slacker and haven’t updated in a loooooong time! Let’s see, we’ve been dealing with yucky weekends filled with snow and ice. They say this weekend will be nice and in the 50′s but I will believe it when I see it. These meterologists are jokes. Heck, I could do a better job!
Sara is going to be 3 very very soon! Time is a flyin’! We’re hoping my parents and sisters and aunt & uncle can come up to celebrate with us. Eric has been working hard, oh wait…maybe it’s hardly working? I’ve been busy with Creative Memories and Sara and I just enrolled in a KinderMusik class. Should be fun! I think we’ll sign her up for a 3-year old soccer program too. How cute is that gonna be! I love watching the little ones swarm around the ball! Too cute!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SISTERS!! Beth is celebrating today, Feb 4th and Sally tomorrow, Feb 5th.
