Tuesday (26): Last Day of OT with Miss Stephanie


Wednesday (27): girl puppies got their shots before they were boarded for Spring Break.


Thursday (28): Allie is so helpful when I'm working on the computer.


Friday (1): Zach is officially a black belt. He broke a slab of concrete. Twice. With his hand. And he survived. He rocks.


Saturday (2) A picture of tea selection for Chris.


 Sunday (3): Fun in the shower at Lowes. Because that's what people do in Lowe's, right?


Monday (4) Getting the house ready to sell.

February 12-25

Jumping right in to continue...


Tuesday (12): Taking pictures of a swing that Aiden wants Chris to build for him while at OT.


Wednesday (13): A happy gift of love from my mom.


Thursday (14) Happy love from Nana.


Friday (15) $3 goes a long way in the bulk candy aisle at the grocery store.


Saturday (16): I would go broke buying books if it weren't for the library.


Sunday (17): It was raining, so Zach fashioned a hat for himself.


Monday (18): Allie playing ball in the basement. 


Tuesday (19): Buster waiting for Chris to come home. He loves his daddy.


Wednesday (20): I love this silly, sweet firecracker with a gazillion freckles.


Thursday (21): covering the gray.


Friday (22): More chess. And a silly husband.


Saturday (23): You can't see it very well, but the yellow sign is an advertisement for a Ham and Gun raffle.
Only in Erie. Sigh.


Sunday (24): The things I find in my house.


Monday (25) Listening to music while waiting for the bus.

February 5-11


Tuesday: My computer arrived safe and sound after having the keyboard replaced. 


Wednesday: Homemade pretzel sticks


Thursday: Chris' birthday. 39. Strawberry Shortcake for dessert.


Friday: The boys were cold so they took turns wrapping the heating pad around their heads. We deemed it a "Hot Bonnet" (instead of Hot Pocket)


Saturday: It's hard to see but as we were out running errands we passed by the sweetest dogs ever! They were so adorable!


Sunday: Our furnace (less than 2 years old) is giving us problems. It will just decide not to turn on. The fix is just to go downstairs and flip the switch but it's annoying so we've been trying to get the error codes so our furnace guy can fix it.


Monday: Look at that sky! Erie is eerie. Ha!

All caught up! Yay!

January 29-February 4


Tuesday: After picking up the boys at school and doing homework in the car I went to start the car so I could drop Zach at karate and take Aiden to OT but my car wouldn't start. Thank goodness for Toyota Roadside Assistance. Ugg.


Tuesday: Because the van wouldn't start I canceled Aiden's OT (Chris came and picked him up) and I stayed to watch Zach teach at karate.


Wednesday: Chess. A frequent family game.


Thursday:Buster. A very spoiled dog.


Friday: More snow


Saturday: Zach's first demonstration with the new Demo team at karate. (They performed at an assisted living facility.)


Sunday: (this picture was taken earlier in the week but whatever) We had high winds and it didn't look like the shed was going to make it. It did. Barely. But Chris finally admitted that we need to tear it down. We will build one at the new house instead of ordering one on Amazon.


Monday: Snowy house.

January 22-28


Tuesday: Lots of snow. It really isn't bad though because we seem to get lots of snow and then it all melts and then we get another storm and it all melts so it doesn't seem as bad as if the snow stuck around and we ended up never getting to see the grass.


Wednesday: Marc Brown (the author of Arthur) visited Aiden's elementary. Each child got a signed book. Very cool, although Aiden wasn't very impressed-such a jaded 3rd grader.


Thursday: Zach had an orthodontist appointment. Check out that snow drift coming off the roof of the building next door. 


Friday: Oops. I spilled water on my laptop. Bad. Very, very bad. After sending it away for a bit it's back now. $300 repair. Ouch.


Saturday: Remember the Omaha steaks Dave and Linda sent us? The box also had some lava cakes. YUMMY!


Sunday: I can get pictures of the humans in my house! I just have to make threats first....

Monday: I have a picture but it's not mine to share so I won't.

January 15-21


Tuesday: OT for Aiden. This is one of the "swings" he wants Chris to build.


Wednesday:Allie. All tuckered out. I really, really need to start taking more pictures of the humans in this house.....


Thursday: Springer needed a picture of Aiden for his new teachers. Isn't he handsome?


 Friday: We've been getting the house ready to sell. Lots of touch up painting and moving furniture around.


Saturday: For Christmas my parents got Aiden a whole bunch of little kits and activities that are wrapped and when he gets bored I get one out for him. (He thinks my parents mail the kits to him, otherwise he'd go looking for them.)


Sunday: Tax Time


Monday: Snow. (Don't worry I was a passenger not the driver.)

January 8-14


Tuesday: I took a picture of this idea as a solution for my curtain-less kitchen window. I even bought supplies but in the end I just didn't like it.....oh well.


Wednesday: All the heavy melting snow caused our gutter to sag. Luckily Chris fixed it up that weekend and it's as good as new.


 Thursday: I caught up on a bunch of magazines that have been sitting in this basket forever.


Friday: The boys and I picked Chris up at the dealership because his car was making a funny noise and needed some love.


Saturday: Aiden. Still in his PJs. Taking stuff apart (a broken dust buster). This is pretty typical.


Sunday: Painting another chair for the kitchen table.


Monday: Another picture of a dog???? I really need to start doing better taking pictures of my human children.
