Since Today is a Holiday

This is technically still the weekend so in honor of the complete and total chaos of the last 3 weeks or so I will share these photos which, quite frankly, speak volumes about how things have been around here.

About 10 days ago I made bread sticks stuffed with mozzarella for dinner and gave each kid a small cup of pizza sauce to dip their sticks in. Unfortunately, K tripped and dropped her cup of sauce and it splashed everywhere. We spent about 10 minutes cleaning up all the places it splashed (all while marveling at how far pizza sauce can splash). The next morning when we went into the kitchen A noticed a spot that we had missed during the clean up.



No big deal right?? At least not until you realize where the sauce is....








Yes boys and girls, that is pizza sauce on the CEILING of my kitchen. We actually needed a ladder to finish the clean up.

And that in one short story sums up the last 3 weeks of our lives.

School is out this week so we should be back and running much more consistently.

Really, Honest....

I will be back up and running this weekend. I have two remaining (big) work projects that will wrap up Thursday and Friday and hopefully, that will free up time to actually really get back to you all. Thanks for your patience (or lack of patience-depending on who you are)

Weekend Wisdom

"If a doctor, lawyer or dentist had 40 people in his office at one time, all of whom had different needs, and some of whom didn't want to be there and were causing trouble, and the doctor, lawyer or dentist, without assistance, had to treat them all with professional excellence for nine months, then he might have some conception of the classroom teacher's job."

Becoming a Family (tissue alert)

In honor of the day that D joined our family... I continue to debate how best to handle this day, given the joy and sorrow that are co-mingled in the events of May 9, 2007. So for this year

Um, Yeah, When Did It Get to be May?

So I guess maybe I should post some Easter photos before it becomes too embarrassing too late and I have to ignore that Easter happened rather than admit to my ineptitude as a blogger........

At our community Egg Hunt Gather






Painting our Easter Eggs at Mimi and Poppa's House






Hunting the Eggs on Easter Morning






Checking out the goodies in the basket (and debating if fruit flavored jelly beans count as actual fruit for breakfast)





Who can resist?
