Party at Mom's- 11:00pm

Apparently when it is time to go to sleep now Emily thinks it is party time. She takes it easy during the day but come time for me to go to sleep she is wide awake. We usually watch a little t.v before we go to sleep so as I am unwinding from the day she knows that it is about time to start dancing around. And when the lights go out it is time to play. I try to ignore her but her timing makes me laugh. And I really can't complain because it is fun to feel her move and it gives me peace of mind that she is doing okay. I still haven't painted her room yet. I am waiting on one more fabric swatch to come in the mail before I decide which one I am going to go with. This is the one I am leaning towards so far. In real life it is alot more pinkish.

After only 354 days I finished my puzzle. I started it last Christmas Eve and after having it under the couch for a few months I decided to pull it out and finish it. It was a 1500 piece puzzle and a hard one because of all the same colors in the sky and in the weeds.



Now for some interactive fun. Create your own snowflake Remember as a kid folding paper and then cutting out designs to make the coolest snowflake in your class. Well, this is just as fun and you don't have to clean up all the little paper pieces afterwards. And you get to name your flake too.

Snow flakes are sweet and snowflakes pile up to make great snowboarding at SHASTA. Sorry you won't be able to enjoy it quite as much as the rest of us. Kristi's word af advice is to lie real close to zach so he can feel every wiggle and that way neither of you get any sleep. Sorry ZACH.

I'm diggin' the fabric and I can't wait till you start painting. Maybe you should watch t.v in the morning that way she'll be active during the day. Reverse psychology always works with the kids.

I think you should dance and party with her. But go longer than she does so she realizes that she's keeping mom up. That'll teach her.

I remember when Keith and Kim named their little flake Zachary. However, I think they did have to clean up afterward.

Hey, you haven't updated since last year. I guess being pregnant is time consuming so i'll cut you some slack.
