Things have just been crazy...... home life is not as busy as work life! I hate the first of the year till at least the end of February! Just crazy.

Piper is doing well at her new day care. She has started to talk a bunch more. She is really growing up. They work with her and so do we on potty training - but no major progress to report. She is learning by leaps and bounds every day!

Ashley is playing basketball and getting awesome grades. For awhile we weren't sure she was going to get to play...but so far it's all worked out and she is practicing and her first game is on the 27th. She is really excited. She is growing up too.... lost another little girl to teenager hood. But I feel I gained a whole new friend!

Riley is working hard and school and doing great. His ISTEP scores were great. We were very proud of him. He was doing wrestling for a bit.... but he really needs to concentrate on his grades and focus on school. He got some new glasses a couple of weekends ago when he was here and he looks awesome in them. He feels really good about himself in them too!


A Piper funny...... last weekend Piper and I sat down at the table to eat breakfast. She reminded me (with folded praying hands) that "Pray mama" I just about fell off my chair!!!! I think they have to pray before all meals at the daycare (which we now call school) I was cracking up. I made my hands in to praying hands and said grace. I about shit though.... I haven't said the Catholic meal prayer since about 8th grade (which would've been 1986) and like freakin' clock work it all came right to me!!!

Steve is having rotor rooter surgery on his sinuses and nose on Feb. 13th. Yeah, that is right ladies.... the day before Valentines Day! He said he nose packing will be red that I get to change! I hope it all goes well and it makes him feel better. In 2008 he felt like shit alot and still is. I hope it makes things better for him in 2009.

If you read his blog, you know he is getting a new bike frame. A custom bike frame. I am actually really exicted about this frame. He gets to personalize it so much its really cool. I hope he gets to get more rides in this year with feeling better and an awesome bike.

I signed up for Netflix - a trial period. It's pretty cool. Now just have to find time to get the movies watched as the pour in. I guess I think I have all this time to do this shit~

I have been having quite a bit of trouble with my back lately. My massage lady said it's because I need to stretch. So, I started doing the yoga on the Wii fit. MAN did it help. I was doing it every day there for a couple of weeks. Been just beat at night this last week. So, kinda slacked off. I bought a yoga for beginners dvd. That is going to be different from the Wii yoga. But I think it is going to really help too.

My 2009 new years resolution...... TAKE A F***ING VACATION! I haven't had one in 3 years and it sucks. I have had days off here and there. But no full week off and haven't gone anywhere. It's time.....
