The Plan

The plan for the other night:
Put Lexi to bed at 8.
Clean house.
Update blog.  Realized I hadn't even posted about Christmas.
Take a shower (the first one of the day).
Read.
Go to bed early.

The reality:
Lexi did not want to go to sleep.
Got her in bed at 8:30.
Cleaned the house.
Lexi woke up.
She started screaming.
I went in her room.
She asked me to rock her.
I did.
She held on tight when I tried to put her back to bed.
I continued rocking her.
Put her down.
Sat down at the computer to blog.
Blogger was not working.
Continued trying.
Stopped trying.
Finally got in the shower at 10:30.
Did not get to read.
Did not get to update blog.
Did not get to go to bed early.
Did get to rock my 2 year old longer than normal.
Would not trade my life for anything.

Love it. I also feel better knowing that some of my days are the same and I am not crazy...or at least not the only one :)

Day 8

Sometimes when life seems hard, sad, or stressful, I like to just stop for a moment and find something happy or peaceful. This evening, Lexi and I were driving home and we noticed the beautiful sunset. I stopped so we could take a picture on my phone. When I look at the sky and it looks like this, it makes me think of the loved ones we have lost and are now in Heaven. Instead of feeling sadness, I feel comfort they are in their forever home in the arms of Jesus. I'm thankful to have to ability to remember and the faith to feel comfort. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

Day 12

Today I am thankful for Apple.  Apple makes great technology.  Jason has been in Canada for almost a week and because of our iPads we were able to facetime with him!  Lexi gets a little shy when the conversation begins, but she quickly warms up and loves to talk and kiss him.  We love and miss him so much when he is traveling.  We are looking forward to the summer when he is home with us for a couple of months straight!!

kindergarten boxcar parade

Well, everyone was healthy until Lexi got the flu and I got pneumonia.  Needless to say, it's been a rough week...BUT, we are better again and for the most part back to normal.  Jason, Lexi and I all worked together on this and we think it turned out great!  All the boxcars were unique and wonderful!  The parade was wonderful...it should have been televised!!
