Well….MAYBE I can think of something to write about. I’m sure if I think hard enough I can. It’s been since the beginning of Nov since my last post so there has to be something.

Anway, now that it is the new year we’re ‘suppose’ to make resolutions to keep, etc. I’ve never one this nor am I about to start. I WILL however try to update the blog more often. My craziness at school seems to prevent my wanting to do anything like thinking.

We’ve been doing well here. Healthy mostly (give or take a cold or two). I can manage to

deal with a cold. It’s fevers and all the other mess I just don’t want around here. 

K-bug is now 21 months old and on her way to 22. It’s party planning time. Her FAVORITE thing seems to be her babies, lee lees (silky blankies) and BARNEY!! ARG! Not easy really for planning. I’ve tried to get her to watch Veggie Tales. They sing. They dance. They are crazy. Why not replace Barney with something like that? VEGETABLES!! I can come up with a party plan of that nature!

Anyway…I have come up with some ideas as far s a cake goes. I need PRACTICE! Whether or not the cake will be a Barney theme (her fave) or something I choose I guess will be decided at some point. I haven’t decided really if it’s going to be a party for inviting or just family again this year. It was a lot easier with family last year. K-bug took a nap, grown ups ate lunch and then we partied with the party girl woke up (and in a good mood). 

This is one I thought was cute and I could do something similar (maybe).

The top picture is what I’m looking at and making characters (whichever I decide on finally) out of modeling chocolate. The recipe I had read said it can be frozen for up to 3 months. If I figure out how to make my characters now then I can freeze them and put them on the cake at that time. It’s an idea. It will all depend on time and which way I go. Even something like Pooh might be a good idea. We shall see!

K is talking a lot more. She’s also bossing Spot and Maddie around. Sit down. Get down. Stop it. Goo gur. Etc etc. She’s a hoot though. She’s very much into clothes right now…or I should say taking them off. At this moment she has on her shirt, diaper and training pants on over the diaper. Since she really messed up her pants with cottage cheese, she has on leg warmers.

Christmas was busy. We traveled to both G-ma’s and Mimi’s house. This year it was Grandma’s for us to be at her house for Thanksgiving and Mimi’s for Christmas Day. It will be the reverse next year. We were at Grandma’s right before Christmas (just the 4 of us). We went to Mimi’s on the Wed prior to Christmas. We had an enjoyable Christmas. K opened most of her presents herself, although she was very sidetracked with the new toy. It took some prodding to get her to open the next.

Now Christmas is packed away for another year our schedules are getting back in order. Here are a few pics of things that have been going on around here.

Cupcake face!
