I’ve got no strings to pull me down…

Hey, I’m in my living room connected to the internet! I’m sitting on the couch! Erichs friend gave him a laptop yesterday that didn’t work and he couldn’t fix it. My super husband had it working within 20 minutes of getting home! Yeehaw! So today we purchased a wireless connection (something we’ve been talking about forever) and now he’s in the office playing on the internet and I’m in the LR. That really rocks dude. No more fights over the computer AND I can be where the kids are and on the internet at the same time! I can take the internet into the kitchen and not run back and forth to the office to check conversions, search for subsitutes, or go to my alltime favorite recipe site www.allrecipes.com! Life feels good right now. Now I’m pretty sure I need to work on making sure everything else gets done in the house!

I need to go because Erich needs me to download ZoneAlarm. Now hopefully I’ll update more often.

an implantation dip on my chart?

Why are all those people staring at me? And why am I wearing this ridiculous hat? 

I’m eating the cake, do I have to make a mess? 

I was being wheeled in to the OR. After 26 hours of labor, I had to come to peace with the decision to have a csection. Magdalena was stuck and was starting to feel weary of the whole laboring process. Although I was scared, I was ready to meet my tiny little girl. Erich was nervous as heck and I’ll always remember the doctor coming in and saying, “there is one really nervous dad out there.” I’ll always remember the sound of their voices as they worked to free her from the position she had wedged herself into my pelvis. And I’ll never forget the sound of that scream, so angry to be pulled out of her warm home. What a wonderful memory.

Happy First Birthday Magdalena! You’ve made our lives so much richer and I’m sure you’ll touch many more lives as the years pass. I love you Little Diva.

While eating hamburger help-me for dinner tonight (I know you are all puking with the thought, but I’m trying to clean out the pantry!):

Me: Is it good T?

T: Yeah, it’s good, but it doesn’t taste good.

Me: How can it be good and not taste good?

T: I don’t know.

And she had seconds and thirds.

Fertility Friend seems to think I’ve ovulated. Weird. I’ve never had a coverline on a chart before with the exception being the chart I conceived Magdalena on. Hrmm. Don’t think the “magic dance” was performed in the correct sequencing, but **shrugs**… he says he has super sperm ya know. heh heh.

My sanity. If found, please return ASAP. Thanks.

It looks really cold out there, are you sure we need to go out Mommy? 

Hi!  

More of the park. 

Wanna go to the park? 

Did you bring your bathing suit? 

This is where that Indiana corn comes from… a field! 

More of the golf course… 

Wanna go golfing? 

Remember how I talked about the fifteen inches of snow that was dumped in Indiana? Then I talked about the inch of ice that accumulated? Well, now there is lots of flooding. Flooding, flooding, and more flooding and the forecast is calling for **drumroll** you guessed it! Heavy Rain! Yay! Our park currently looks like an ocean, well as close to an ocean as you get in Indiana. heh. If it gives you a mental picture, the creek that runs in the park in our town has crested and is now reaching as far as two streets away from the park! Highways are shut down, the schools closed today, and my basement is accumulating water. Yeehaw. Excuse me while I go clean up some water, oh and take care of my cranky rash covered baby.
