update!

Wow It has been such a long time so where do I begin?!?!? This weekend was spent with a sick child! Ben had a fever starting sat morning and then he got worse little by little until Sunday morning I decided I shoud call the DR and make sure he didn't have strep! which he had...poor baby, he could barely swallow and he looked so sad. By monday afternoon he was back to his normal self - I could tell he was feeling better because he would not stop teasing Syd. I don't like my children to be sick but...he was nice to sydney for a day! The rest of us have managed to avoid the illness!
In other news, the business (well bussinesses! ) is/are going well. The day care is about to go through several changes as the summer schedule falls into place. I would love an easy schedule but then the funds are low so....

We are gearing up the the annual visit from my sister-in-law Melissa and the 3 cousins!!!!!!!! (they live in Florida!) She will drive up BY HERSELF and the 3 kids!(7, 5and 3) what a woman. I/we are so excited. Our lives are crazy for the 3 week visit but I love that she makes such an effort to keep our children close.
I will try to post some pictures of our fun!

Well, thanks for listening!

menu block

I am getting ready to leave for the grocery store and I decided that I need some new menu ideas! So, what are you guys making for dinner? It doesn't have to be fancy or vegetarian(I can make adjustments!) just a different idea.

science fair


Last night was the big Purdy School Science Fair. I was so proud of Ben and his first project. He chose to collect items that we found on our walks and titled it Outside Nature Collection - original I know. He found stones, pine cones and bark! oh and the most important - a cocoon! I made him do almost all of the writing on his display board (which was frustrating because it took forever) and he did great. Some of the projects obviously had a lot of parent participation.

what a week!

I stayed up a bit late last night but....I have my billing done for April! How exciting. Now I just hope people are happy with their service and want to pay quickly! ha ha

I had a close friend of my moms come over last night and talk through some of the business process and I think that once I start really working with the accounting it will all fall into place!

As for the other parts of our life...Ben has his first science fair tonight. It was hard to let him do it and not take over but in the end I am very proud of my little genius and I can't wait to go see all of the other projects tonight. I will make chris give up the camera so I can post some pictures!
