I GOT TO BABY SIT

As many of you know my good friend and her husband recently brought home their newly adopted children (on March 17) and I am PROUD to say that I got to watch them today.... I know I am sure some day I am going to be witching and complaining because I am being asked to baby sit again --actually probably not... I love my friends children just like they are my own--some days probably even more because they leave LOL-- but I was HONORED that my friend trusts me with her "new" kids... :)

Floor installation begins tomorrow....wish us luck.. LOL

CHAD ROCKS!!!!!

BEFORE:AFTER:

DOESN'T CHAD JUST ROCK?!?!?! Ok so for today he rocks. He was thankfully my little pack-mule today and carried all the boxes etc (after I went through them of course) downstairs so that we now have a living room again. I am getting really excited about the fact that by this time next week *theoretically* we should have our kitchen DONE...well aside from the plumber coming hopefully he will be able to come on Saturday--even though it is the day before Easter. If not in two weeks...

Oh...and today is a day that I thought would NEVER come for my family... DELAINEY TURNED DOWN MCDONALD'S... LOL.. she actually asked for 'real' food... my poor kids :( I can't wait to FINALLY be able to cook something again...

You think???

I need to clean my living room??? (please note that there is in fact a coffee table in the center of that pile and it really isn't as BAD as I have made it look)...

As you all know we are remodeling our house and as my last post said my Father-in-law will be coming to Bismarck in two days to help Chad (read do) lay the tile in our entry way, kitchen and hall way. Well it became apparent that we would need to clean our the closet in the hall way so that the tile could be placed in there... and let me tell you that closet can hold ALOT OF CRAP!!!

Hopefully Chad will help me go through it tomorrow before the girls attack it :(

YAY--- we have a 'date' for our tile

We are happy to announce that we have a "final" date for when Chad's parents are coming to town. It seems that they will be leaving the Twin Cities on Friday am after Connie's daycare kid gets on the bus and then heading out. By the sounds of it Mike will be starting on Saturday and once Chad gets up he will start helping.
We will have to stay in a hotel on Sunday and Monday night but small price to pay when we are getting the flooring we want :) Speaking of that... I really need to call and schedule the delivery of the tile... AHHHHHHHHHHH!!! That would have been GREAT.... although I think they can go and pick it up... umm I think....

OOPS!!! LOL

RSV shots and more antibiotics

Well the girls had their 6th shot in their 7 shot series for their RSV prevention today. Hopefully they won't get sick this time like they have in the past (all five times).

We did learn that Avery has YET ANOTHER ear infection....she is now on her 16th course of antibiotics in her 15 months of life. We have been advised to make certain we get her hearing tested after she gets her tubes placed... we are no longer hearing "if" she gets tubes...it is now when. I don't know how I am going to handle one of my little miracles going into surgery (Chad is so taking time off) but I know that it is in her best interest. Avery has an appointment with the ENT on April 9th at 10:15am so I will certainly let everyone know what the plan is as soon as we do.
