Day 6......rainy and cold



Today was cold and we had freezing rain. We have been very lucky so far this winter, it has been pretty mild. I'm sure 'old man winter' is going to kick our butts soon though.

I decided to read a magazine this evening and ended up with 4 kids sitting on me to read along. Other than being uncomfortable it was kind of cute. The babies kept pointing at pictures for me to tell them the words and they would repeat them.

How much longer can I call them my 'babies'? Can you believe they will be 2 years old in 39 days....not that I'm counting. Time really flies....I'll have to post a picture of them when they were just home. Man, they were so little.

My picture for today....I think it's cool. It's the train tracks and stone streets that run through part of downtown. Funny, isn't it, they just leave them, they don't go anywhere and can't be used but someone somewhere decided to leave them.......

Trains and chocolate sauce


Today was a pretty nice day. Other than M bringing s to our bed at 5am because she was crying and he is such a mush that he couldn't let her fall back asleep by herself.

We did our usual Sunday morning breakfast then decided to go see a holiday train display. I didn't realize their was a football game starting right about the time we got downtown so parking was insane. The trains were nice to see and we walked all over downtown then had lunch before heading home. The 'dessert' that came with the kids' meals was a cookie and a cup of chocolate sauce. Huh? Does that make any sense? Obviously whoever thought of that does not have kids. d was hyped on the sugar rush for hours.


Here is the aftermath of our day downtown.


I'm watching this crazy movie Knocked Up and it is cracking me up. Are there really people out there like these characters? Makes me actually feel normal compared to them.
Well.....back to La La Laauunnndddrrrryyyyyy Land.
