Cyber Dork, not Cyber Geek!

Ok Ladies, I have tried to shrink the pictures down to the cute little corner pictures you all have running on the side bar of your sites and I haven't a clue how to do it, so if any of you would like to enlighten me on how, please do so! The very exciting news in our house is that G finally lost her first tooth! It happened last night during tuck in. Dad had her wriggle it sideways to show him and it popped right out. Of course this is because we have and appointment today to get it pulled. G has both of her bottom teeth fully grown in behind her baby teeth. I know they will pull the other one today when we go. I also know that it will result in a trip to the toy store.

In other news, Melissa (we have to be able to use adult first names don't you think?) Grace is going to have to be a Daisy Girl all over again here, and they don't have anyone to be the troop leader so the poor little girls at G's school won't get to be Daisies.......oh, wait, that's right they now have me, the sucker, the person that cannot say no, the woman that will do it all, so get ready to share all of your cute ideas with me, because I am going to need them!

H is playing golf twice a week and will start swim team here in October. He is very cool and I am now a total dork. Why didn't you warn me Amy that it starts so early? Both kids are signed up for Spanish here at school. It is not part of the school day, but they have a spanish teacher that offers classes at the school in the morning before school starts, and I figure that if H and G have been taking the classes for a few years already they should keep it up. Maybe they will actually learn another language unlike me.

I am still running on the treadmill, but with Halloween AND Thanksgiving AND Christmas coming it really seems like a moot point. I can't stay away from all the yummy candy and it is only September!

I am now all spun up about Christmas. I have all my shopping done except for Paul and H and G. any ideas?

Is anyone else watching Dancing? I cannot believe they did not get rid of Cloris Leachman. She is so very icky and Paul and I think she must be on muscle relaxers because she seems stoned. I am so excited about Grey's and Survivor tonight. We are watching Survivor and TiVo'ing Grey's. I know what I will be doing while the kiddies are in school tomorrow. They aren't in school today, teacher inservice day, so I am taking them to this indoor athletic club that has a climbing wall. All ages are allowed to do it. They hook you up to a harness and everything, so it is safe. I am psyched!

New song on the IPOD....I loaded "Johnny and June" by the girl from Trick Pony

Dinner......beef stir fry with the leftover steak from last night.

OK, so no Christmas cookie exchange, BOO HOO on the Oreo Balls, however, maybe we should do a secret (ok, you and I know it isn't really going to be a secret) Santa. We could go in a big circle. You gift to whoever is clockwise or counterclockwise to you. We could set limits to what we spend, or white elephant, or themed (like an ornament exchange), it could be fun.

I will probably update the blog throughout the day as your letters all start coming in, or I may comment on yours. So, if you are like me and check your emails all day, you should check your blog all day.

Look at you and your fancy Tivo'ing!
Just so you know, I totally gank all of my super great ideas from all those websites listed on the sidebar of my blog- 'cause I'm not crafty I'm a poser!
Check out the Bakerella link, she basically takes the oreo cookie balls, makes them look like adorable cupcakes, and puts them on a lolly stick! So precious!

How do we decide whose clockwise or counter clockwise from us? geographically? or do we just draw names and put them in a circle - just finished Laurie's Peach pie all this sugar is affecting my thinking

Cool that you have H&G in Spanish. I'm having trouble iwth blogger too - I know there is a way to password protect it - then only "allowed" readers can read it - but I want password THIS one and leave my other open for when we head back to VA
