Check out my March of Dimes sidebar------->

I am walking to help raise money for babies!! Such a great cause and they do so well!

Please feel free to donate...My goal is pretty small so any little bit helps!

Thanks!!

Lazy Lou...

Yep, that's me! Just an update...on the Houghton front. He had a wonderful swim meet weekend. He swam well and bested all of his times! He amazes me every time. He is so great at paying attention and listening to his coaches, getting to his races and even helping out the newer kids! Wow he's growing up fast!! He also was told at the end of the meet that when practice starts up again(we have a week off--yeah!!) He'll be moving up a level!! He was really excited and I am SOOO Proud of him!!!

We also recieved notice from the school that he tested into the gifted program! He did really well on these 'tests' I guess what they test is how the kids think vs. what (content) they know!

I am sooo excited and proud of Houghton!! I was his weekend to shine!!

Blogger guilt

OK, so, I check out several blogs frequently and usually feel guilty when I realize that I haven't posted in a while. I have also come to the realization that I have a lot of pictures stuck in the camera. Next week is spring break and I am off. Maybe I'll have time and the inclination to do stuff. Don't take bets or hold your breath though!!

The Cutest Moment...

After I gave Mary her bath and she's all clean....She decided to walk around in a pair of my heals (wedge type) in her robe. It was sooo adorable and made me smile and all warm & fuzzy inside!

The joys of having a girl!

I am not sure what exactly to title this one.

Paul and I went out to dinner for the "Passer's Dinner" while my mom babysat and took the kids to Houghton's school 'county fair' They had all kinds of carnival stuff, food and auctions, a cake walk (Mary's fav.-she wanted the cupcake no walking for it) etc etc. It was at the school right around the corner from our house.

They had a ferris wheel and bungee jumping. Yes, Bungee jumping. Guess what Mary did? One guess, only one. Yup, she did the bungee jumping. The first thing Houghton and my mother told me when we got home was..."you'll NEVER believe what Mary did" Nope, and noone had a camera either. So, I really have no proof. But, it is the thing where the strap you in and you jump and they pull your legs so that you go higher and higher. Mary apparently went really high and cried and screamed when her turn was over. That's my girl!!! (and my mom HAD to by a cake for Mary too!!)
