YAY!!

Well, I did go get the boys' pictures retaken today...bruise on the forehead and all. Oh, what a difference the photographer can make. Wow. The guy today was great and we got some wonderful shots of G and some better ones of the boys together than I'd gotten the other day. Even better, I managed to just replace the prints that I returned and NOT spend any more money. :D Mama's happy now...and you all know how it goes..."if Mama aint happy..."

We also had G's 3 year checkup at the doctor and all is well. He measured 41 1/2 inches tall and weighs 42 lb 4 oz....an inch taller and a quarter pound lighter than E was at this age....off the charts for both. What a surprise....*eyeroll*

We had lunch with Grandpa and Grandma at Applebees. No school today, as we really did enough work the other 4 days that we really didn't need to. We had small group tonight at church.

I STILL have a few more things to do to get ready for the party, but I'm not freaking out yet...plenty of freak out time tomorrow. :)

Oh, cute kid saying time... Last night E asked me to "lettermatize" his Pokemon cards. :) It actually is a pretty cool word, don't you think? And the other day I rewarded the kids (for good behavior at the picture place) with a small toy at Creative Kidstuff -- don't remember if I posted about that or not. Actually, E wanted Pokemon cards, so we didn't get his reward there ...but ANYWAY, G chose a plastic approx. 4 inch cow...very real looking thing, udders and all. Well, today I asked him what the cow's name was....the answer? "Cowey Grassy-eater" heehee... Love that kid...

Alright, it's sneaking up on midnight, and I'm beat, and have a big day tomorrow, so I suppose I ought to get to bed. Here's a link to all those pictures we've had taken of the kids this week...I can't seem to figure out how to copy pictures into the right place on posts yet, and I'm too tired to mess with it...

Nice pictures, but what's with the headless shots? :)
Emma did a similar graceful move--tripped on a toy train and split her lip the night before our family Christmas photos. The next morning she had a HUGE fat lip, but they were able to make her smile big enough that you couldn't see it too much in the pictures. :P
