Ballet and Rock n Roll

Mom, look!

Mom, look at my cool bowls. Stainless steel - with lids! love them. A rare find at Walmart.

nothing much

Haven't had much to say lately. Seems like the colds are filtering through our house just like everyone else's. Jim and I are currently healthy, Laura is on the mend, and Adam was healthy, but woke up with a full nose about 30 minutes into bedtime tonight, so we'll see what develops. 

We had a very lazy weekend, which isn't always great for us. Seems that kids need structure and activities or they get grumpy, who would have guessed? Back in the swing this week. Tomorrow is dance class for Laura (kindermusik-ish. lots of "heads, shoulders, knees and toes", etc.) and Mom's Day Out on Thursday. Next week is March! holy cow.

So this post won't be a total waste of time, here's a ridiculous, but cute picture.

oh darn

My mom passed down a darning ball made by my Great great Grandpa and I have thin spots in my favorite socks, so I thought I'd give it a try. I obviously pulled it too tight, but they're definitely wearable now and it only took about an hour while watching TV. Wouldn't do it for cotton Hanes socks, but I'll keep it handy for my wool (or wool-ish) socks. Pretty cool to use something handed down so many generations, too.

Shark game

this afternoon, Laura and I were playing 'shark'. Somehow, we ended up 'eating' green corn, strawberries and squid. And I kept saying duh-nuh, duh-nuh (as in Jaws), so she kept saying "doughnut, doughnut".

This one's for you Linda...

No, I'm not making a statement about my loyalties, its just a cute picture. We're still using your clothes Linda, even some of the girly ones. But in this case, I picked the Green Bay romper, instead of the cheerleader outfit. Thanks again!
