RIP

RIP mr frog the toad. Lili loved you very much, we all did!


Toad died yesterday, even though it was very sad, Lili has taken it very well, and now wants a fish. We promised her a goldfish if she became potty trained and now she's done it! So after Christmas, we are going to get her a fish!

Post 100!

Did I mention it's freezing out side? and this was taken a few hours ago!
I got the Christmas tree up the other day! The cats have left it alone, for the most part and Ax does't care about it unless a cat is under it! (1 glass bulb down and broken)
The weather outside is frightful. Yeap it is! cold cold and frozen! Glad that my lovely awesome husband froze his fingers off plowing the driveway this morning!
Tonight we had Joe's first band concert of the year. Lili kept herself busy! My little yarn girl!
and Joe had a solo performance! He did a great job, nearly brought tears to my eyes!
Lili was the first to clap and the last one to stop clapping, she really enjoyed this concert.

I'm nearly done with my Xmas knitting. 21 out of 23 done! two things left and I will be done! I know there are a few things I want to finish up, but it's going to be all good, and none of it has to be done by xmas!

FYI: Yes Jess, that is Gerard Butler from PS I LOVE YOU, he is a sexy man!

10 December 2008

it snowed!

I know I know, I've been a bad blogger, life has been crazy the last few days. Here is what happened...

I shoveled my driveway after going to Khans Mongolian BBQ with Steph (YUMMY!), oh and thanks to Steph I became a rock star in the parking lot of target with my shovel, long story, but lots of fun!

Then it snowed more so Adam had to plow the lot at work with the tractor! Twice now, he's had to do it.... all this snow and you think we lived in Minnesota or something... oh wait... we do...



Josh & Adrienne stopped by and the boys went and hung out while Adrienne and I watched chick flicks! She found Lili's Chicken Little hat! Again, a fun night! who can complain when you get to watch him!!!


Lili and I stayed home yesterday because she hadn't been feeling good the day before according to her day care lady, what ever... blah! I'm not exactly thrilled about this daycare but what ever.
so... Lili went to daycare as spider girl today!

She is really into this whole fashion thing, I think she changed outfits oh, about 8 times yesterday. Most of them even matched or had a theme! Must be the stage she is at, all I know is it is quite funny to watch her figure out what she likes and doesn't like! There are days that she wakes up in a different out fit than what she went to bed in! The girl changes in her sleep apparently!

Knitting update: 16 out of 24 done, lots to do still, but i'm not giving up yet, I did have a little break, and at one point I was ready to give up knitting all together, but I held on and I'm still workin on it! There will be LOTS of pics once Christmas is over!

Yeah, and I'm voting to take on the Sinterklaas tradition here in the US, anyone with me?
