There is nothing on TV

I love 3 day weekends! Even more now than I used to when I worked I think. It is nice to have Daddy home for 3 days in a row. What I hate about three day weekends? Tuesday! I imagine tomorrow to be a long day. Oh well. We didn't do too much exciting this weekend. Grilled out, which is always yummy! We took Keira to Deanna Rose Children's Farm. She loves this place. It is basically a gigantic farm with all kinds of animals - ponies, goats, buffalo, rabbits, cows, etc - you can feed all the animals, they have a playground as well. Keira had a blast as usual.





I was bracing myself for a potty accident because she was so into all the animals that potty was the last thing on her mind - but she suprised me as usual and told us when she had to go.

I had Wade working on the honey-do list today - hanging pictures mostly, this is his least favorite chore and thus the reason that it still hasn't been done. But other than a few rooms that I would like to paint, I think we are finally done with most of the stuff.

I'm going through a baking phase. I made chocolate-coconut drop cookies today. The other day I made ooey gooey butter cake. I am thinking of making a sour cream coffee cake in the morning.

Dinner has become a disaster again. The last 2 months or so that we lived in Lebanon, Keira was in a bad phase. She refused to eat what we were having for dinner, generally threw a big fit about it and dinner was something no one really even wanted to attempt. Then we moved here and suddenly dinner was fine. She'd eat anything and everyone was happy. (Note - I refuse to make her a second dinner. We tried this for awhile, it just made things worse). Now, the past 2 days we're back to refusing to eat and throwing a big fit. ugh. I'll be taking me dinner on the patio, please!

Wade had his FF draft this weekend. And has been obsessive ever since. Just a minute ago I saw he had the calculator application up on his computer with the FF screen up. I asked him what he was doing. He said he was calculating how long the whole draft took. Why this is important, I have no idea. Welcome to my life for the next 5 months or so. At least I have my own team (my MOMS club did a league) this year, so I at least have something to cheer for since it's unlikely we'll get many Colts games out here.

The Scrubs Wizard of Oz episode was just on TV land. That is one of my favorite episodes! And speaking of TV, I am missing the Olympics. There is nothing on TV in the evenings that we watch except BB. Come on end of September.

That's it, I have rambled quite long enough. Big week this week though - Keira starts her Kids Day Out Program on Wednesday. I'll be sure to blog about that Wednesday night!
