as far as this "collaborative" day that i was worried about … it’s not that bad. i had amanda stay home sick … ashlen and ady left after the kids got out of school to go out of town … my girls went to their friends house to play for a bit … haley is taking a nap right now.

as for matthew … our "new" kid. i must have jinxed myself by typing that good stuff about him last night. lol! because he was totally NOT thrilled about coming today. after his mom left he stood at the window holding the windowsill … screaming "someone come get me" at the top of his lungs … for about 45 minutes!!! he finally settled in though and is back to his talkative, nice self. only thing is he’s not wanting to do that nap thing … which is essential to our day. he had tears welling up and was telling me that "i think i’m going to cry" when i told him we had to rest. i felt so bad. so i did get him to sit on the floor at least … and we’re watching "max and ruby" … a nice calm show. actually he’s watching … and i’m posting this! lol!

girls have awana’s at the church tonight. it’s "hard hat night" … so they’re wearing their softball helmets. and i have some stuff to get done … so i’m hopeing to have some motivation. i have a secret project that i have to get done. not a secret assignment or anything … just something for a party this weekend. and if my brother knew that i havn’t even started he would probally kill me … luckily i know they don’t read my blog. lol! i tried to make my sister-in-law feel quilty the other day … she said she had maybe seen my blog once. at least she’s honest i guess about never looking at it. but i realized that she has no idea what i do … all this photography stuff and scrap stuff that means so much to me … and they have no idea. lol!

i also need to figure out alyssa’s birthday party and stuff. her birthday is next thursday … and her sleepover party is next saturday. i think there’s about 10 girls coming … not sure how that happened. lol! and i have absolutely no idea what i’m getting her. 11 is such a tough age … they’re not really into toys anymore … all she keeps asking me for is a cell phone, a laptop, and an ipod. talk about high hopes. lol!

but considering how most of my wednesday nights go … i’ll sit and do nothing! lol! and then kick myself for not taking advantage of my time!

    I’m glad you’re knee wasn’t a big problem, although dontcha sometimes wish it was JUST to justify the costs of going to the doctor!!! lol
    Alyssa’s bday list sounds just like my boys’. Just wait, it gets tougher and tougher buying gifts when they’re older. I must say, you are a brave woman having all those girls for a sleepover!

    I got my grandson an iPod Shuffle for less than $80 – or is that more than you wanted to spend? I’m having a heck of a time deciding on something for my 10 yr old granddaughter, though – that tween age is terrible to buy for!!
