Something fun!

I just found this looking around... It generates what it calls “word clouds” from your source text. You can either enter a bunch of words yourself or it will pull from a source, in this case I pulled from my blog with RSS feed. Then you can play with different fonts, colors, and layouts if you like (and have spare time).

Here is where to go: http://wordle.net/

A new school year...

It has been a week now that the kids have been in school. They seem to be pretty excited about a new school year. Ethan is making new friends at his new school and seems to be fine with the switch. Elisabeth does not like waking up early and it has taken some threats of losing TV privileges to get her to straighten up for grandma in the morning. Elisabeth missed the bus today..thanks to grandma. What I couldn't figure out was how Ethan got on the bus but Elisabeth didn't..who knows..loll.

Here is a picture from the first day of school...



Brooke's birthday planning is coming along. I got almost all the invites out in the mail with the exception of 7 which I need to get stamps for. I can not stop thinking about all the things I would like to do for her birthday and how I'm such a slacker because I have no presents for her yet. I just don't know what to buy her. There are so many toys and books and things like that left from Elisabeth. She is such a happy baby... unless she is hungry and all she wants is me, she becomes a monster! Brian gets so upset because nothing he does can make her happy. As soon as I walk in the room you can see her whole attitude change. It is crazy! It makes me feel good in a way but then again, it isn't good because then it just makes things hard on Brian. I am still nursing and it is going great except for today. She wanted to BITE me and smile about it.. so I went down and made her a bottle of my milk... well she didn't like that to much and decided she better stop. Below is a recent pic. of the princess herself.

I'm going to get to bed now that it is midnight!! I couldn't sleep..can't stop thinking about EVERYTHING..work, baby showers, birthday, photo shoot with Casey, laundry, lunches, homework....the list goes on and on.

Good night!!

My first...


Well I have never done this before and I'm not that great of a writer.


I am not really sure where to begin... I am a mom of three wonderful children. Ethan who just started 4th grade this year and loves it. Elisabeth just started K and I don't think is to sure about it yet. She is say she made six friends and when I asked her the name of the kids she had no idea. I thought it was cute! My third is baby Brooke! She is almost a year old and I'm so sad about it! I just can't believe how fast time flies.


I'm so busy lately getting ready for two baby showers and my daughters 1st birthday...sometimes it is just to much! But such is life.


I better get back to my busy work day...it is almost over. Just thought I would at least start my blog!! lol
