On Sunday was our"engagement anniversary." Can you believe it! You say yes to a wonderful very cute man and look what happens. I live in WI and have three kids! Crazy, crazy.
I am so glad that spring is finally here. It has been a long, long winter. This winter set the record in WI for the most snow fall since they have been keeping a record. Over 100 inch. of snow!
For this spring I have signed up to be a soccer coach for a U6 team, Natalie's coach. It is SO much fun. Our game last Saturday was canceled, but I hope that we can have a game this Saturday. The best part is the snack and treat! Isn't that why we played soccer at that age?!
I also went to Vegas to visit Melanie, and Emily and Jenny came too. IT WAS AWESOME!! I won 4.5mill...just kidding. Anyways, it was great to get sunshine, take a break from momming, and hanging out with sisters.
I have slowly gotten better, and they are still upping my medication. I say this so that Emily will not worry so much!
I'm also still working on my book. I decided that it would be better told in first person, so I am re-writing, but as I work I get to know the Characters better and so I am able to add more detail and back story. Writing a story has taught me how much work goes into writing. It is also hard to find the time to really focus, when I still have three kids at home. Can you imagine that Natalie will be in kindergarten in the fall? Wow. Were does all the time go?
Thou Shalt Have Fun...

NJ
Today NJ told me that she has her life all planed out. She is going to have three babies just like me and that their names are going to be; Sam, Pocahontas and John. And that all of them are going to be born in New Mexico. I told her that it is good to have your life planed out and that I hope it turns out just the way she wants it to.
I also mentioned that she can not have babies until she is married and she can't get married until she is at least 25.

New Computer
Not going into any name calling, Jim! Our computer died. Jim has successfully rebuilt a computer that is much better then our last, obvious since I am writing so much faster and better then before. Right?!
So though it has been a few months since the last entry I still have the promise of more pictures. I also have a list of funny stories to tell.
My girls have seen too many princess movies, this is how I can tell...
The other day as I wound our Grandfather clock I decided to let it chime and strike away. Needless to say this is a perfect setting for a princess story. The girls dressed up in there princess dresses dancing to the Demo song on our piano. When the clocked chimed, they turned off the music each dropping one shoe and running into their bedroom. They would then return to the "ball" and repeat the process until mom called them to lunch. They did this all before watching Enchanted, which I believe is their new favorite move, except for the barbie movies and Sleeping Beauty.
I made biscuits the other day and set out the honey. Natalie looking a little confused asked if it was syrup, just in a different container. I then proceeded to tell her that syrup, real syrup at least comes from trees etc. and then I told her that honey comes from bees that make it from the nectar found in flowers. As I was winding down she said, "And then the bees take the honey to Wal Mart." You could see in her face that all the pieces of the puzzle had now come together.
We had a good laugh over that.
Andrew who tries very hard to play with his sisters finds it hard to communicate with them. Girls just don't seem to understand the language of Grunt. So he has decided that hitting has become his new form of communication. And I quote from the Book of rules by Andrew, "It is ok to hit your sisters when you become frustrated as long as you give then a hug afterwards."
Though I attempted to correct this idea, my actions speak otherwise.
"Andrew do not hit your sister, give her a hug and say you are sorry." See, it is okay to hit as long as it is followed by a hug.
I can not wait until it is spring we all have cabin fever. The other day the sun was shinning and the snow was melting that the kids and I went out side and played on the drive way. I took a minute to wonder about the temperature, when I noticed I could still see my breath. It was 34 degrees and we were outside in our jackets. Take about being acclimatised!!! For Easter we had a nice snow storm. I told Jim that this had better be the last snow storm or I am going! He is welcome to join me but I'm gone!!

Promise of more pictures
I took a few cute picture last week (how could they not be cute when they are pictures of my kids), and I will try to get them loaded. I need Jim to show me how to get them from the camera to the computer and then from the computer to my blogg. Well I'm being paged...
