31 Days of Happy!

[SilverSabre25]

Yesterday: I finally got started on the hat I'm making for DH for Christmas and it's going really fast. Yay!

Today: Got a lot done, even though most of it was of the "invisible to everyone but me but it feels so good to know that it's done" variety. Also, got a GREAT idea for each of the hardest-to-buy-for people on my list!

Yesterday was awesome!!!!!

Child who needs to eat breakfast didn't have one, not one time out!!!!!

We went to the library for storytime and it went great.

Lunch was gobbled up again.

Naptime no problems. Its great to have the quiet time back-happyface

It was a pretty quiet day over all.

Then at the end of the evening I played a game with my youngest son and he won, which was wonderful for him.

I'm totally enjoying my job again and thankful so much for it!

December 8th: We got our engagement photo proofs back and they are awesome. We're goofy people so not many of the "serious" photos came out nice but we loved the fun, goofy and creative photos. We made silly faces, put our handprints in the sand and wrote the date to our wedding, we spelled out LOVE with our hands etc. My favorite one was in front of a church where I'm pulling on my fiance's leg trying to drag him into the church while he clings to the railing with a look of pain and panic Lol. Good times. happyface

I've survived. That's a really plus when my period starts at 4am on a Friday. The kids and I made some cinnamon applesauce ornaments today. I'm letting them dry at room temp and seeing how that goes. The house smells a little like apple pie right now. Nice and holiday-ish

1. It's Friday!! 2. Had a dcm hand me a handwritten thank you card along w/ a gift card thanking me for keeping her daughter an extra 30 min one day and allowing her to arrive a little bit early today, wasn't inconvenient for me at all and I know how grateful she is. 3. Today is the last day for an infant and SA girl that I have in care. I had considered teeming them because they are always here like an hour later than everyone else, only part time and come right in the middle of nap. But I didn't have to, mom is taking baby bonding/maternity leave. And I don't plan on taking them back after that time. no more infants or SA kids ever, not my kind of thing. I prefer the 2 and up. It's a good day. Oh and 4. I'm off to the beach tomorrow morning to celebrate my 5 year anniversary!

December 9th: We had an awesome road trip to Las Vegas. My DD wanted to go for her birthday and we indulged her. My DH, DD, mom, DS, BIL and SIL rode with us in the van and we had a blast. We left at 6:30pm and we arrived at 11:30pm.

December 10th: It was my DD's 7th birthday!! We breakfasted at IHOP (her choice), went to the Shark Reef, went shopping at the Mandalay Bay shops, saw the lions (one of the lions went right up to the glass and licked it and played with her), had lunch at the Rainforest Cafe and took her to the kids area at the Excalibur. Later my mom watched my DD while DH, MIL and FIL (they took their own car) and I went to an Andrea Bocelli concert. It was the best ever! He did 5 encores!

December 11th: We drove back and once we got home DH helped unload everything and put everything away and DS and I were ablt to take a 2 hour nap! We also picked up my MIL's Christmas gift which was a photo of all of the grandkids, it was BEAUTIFUL! Of course we all got one for ourselves and now we can't wait until Christmas to give it to her because we can't display ours until then

Sat: Got the feather quilt I'm making vacuumed so most of the feathers that are not in the quilt are also not flying all over the place. I started finishing the edge too.

Sun: Wasn't feeling the best but got to snuggle with my cat for a bit.

Monday: Got invited to my 3 year old DCG's birthday party!

Friday-Was just another wonderful day in the neighborhood! Only had 3 little ones and they played so well together. My day flew because everyone was being so good.

One of them wouldn't leave with mama because of having such a fun time playing and I didn't mind her staying so mom left and I dropped her off at her house when everyone else left.

Saturday-Got the tree and last minute gifts done!!!! This is the earliest we have done this in a long time and it feels sooo wonderful.

Sunday-My dad and wife arrived from out of town. We were able to spend the afternoon together, go to dinner, and then me, my girls and my dads wife went to the dollar tree and Wal-Mart for some things my daughter needed. Was alot of fun. They had to leave this morning-but will see them in about two weeks.happyface

former daycare girl's mama got a new job and they are back. She's such a love bug. I really missed her. She can actually be really rotten but was perfect today...and I'm up for the challenge anyway.

Sunny skies for the past few days. It's cold but really pretty. It helps with my mood A LOT.

Missed most of last week

Sat: Spent some time with a new friend. Looks like we will get along great! May even offer her daughter an assistant job next summer.

Sun: Another friend's (a dcm) mother was admitted in the ICU with a bad prognosis. I know, not good. But I was in the position to take care of her 2 children while she went to be with her. No charge, of course.

Mon: Another challenging day with the boys. But the 23 mo ate really well, took a good nap and played well with my 3 yo. Very unusual for a Monday. Now my 3 yo in in her PJ's with big sister's old ballet costume over it. ::

Such a pleasant day today! Started off with a good morning and a nice time outside playing. Cooked a fabulous dinner (lovethis my crockpot!) with lots of veggies, and went out for ice cream at the spur of the moment with my family! Kids are in bed now and I have a bunch of stuff I can finish/work on this evening.

[MyAngels]

Whoa, I'm way behind ::.

Friday: It was a slow day, so I got a couple of mundane things done around the house during naptime that I would have normally done on the weekend. I got to go Christmas shopping with my DD and then out to dinner with DH.

Saturday: Spent the day Christmas shopping with my Mom and nephew. I haven't spent as much time with her lately as I should, so that was a nice day.

Sunday: DH spent the day away from home, so I was able to spend the whole day putzing around and getting things done that I'd been putting off. It's nice to start the week with the house feeling organized and tidy.

Monday: The kids were really good yesterday. That is all, really, but it's enough .

[Country Kids]

Yesterday: Great day, a little tired but great overall!!!! Dinner was done early and my youngest daughter and I did a little shopping for somethings to decorate outside with.

She bought a package of candy canes to share at school. This is her first year of school as she was homeschooled and is making friends left and right!!!

I was so glad she wanted to take something in and share with them!
