Where does the time go??

Seriously, where has it gone, because it is flying right before my eyes and I don't even seem to have time to blog about anything anymore.

I hate waiting so long in between blogs because then I have so much to write about and I forget stuff that I want to write about and everyone gets board with the long posts...well bear with me...LOL!

FIRST, I just signed up to be an Avon e-Rep. That means that you can shop online via my personal website "store" and have Avon directly shipped to you. If you'd like more information on my site, let me know and I'll give you my e-mail address so we can get in touch with each other!

Ok, now for the run-down quick "month-in-review" of my family...

GARY - I just threw him a surprise birthday party this past Saturday!! It was awesome and he would have been completely surprised if I didn't start laughing when he started questioning me on some thing FIVE minutes before we got to the party. Dummy me can't look at my husband in the eye and lie. He's going to be the big 30 on the 27th and I wanted to surprise him a few weeks before. It was so much fun and even though I was tired of the sneaking around, I'm sad that the party is over.

ALYSSA - Oh this girl just cracks me up everyday. I love talking to her and hearing her thoughts and dreams and wants and wishes. It's amazing to watch her play dollhouse with her princess characters and how they talk and she puts them in time-out and gives them baths and uses her everyday routine to play with her dolls. She's been asking about school lately. She hasn't been to her therapy in a few months now and we passed the street the school is on the other day and she asked when she could go back to school. I told her she was on summer vacation and she'd get to go to a new school in a couple months. So now everyday she tells me she wants to go to her new school. Thank goodness I finally got her signed up!!

MORGAN - Is making amazing strides in her gross motor skills. She's finally mastered pulling herself up on the furniture (and well everything you can think of) and has even started a little table cruising along with it. She still has no interest in the walking toys, but we are taking it one step at a time, literally! To me it seems as if her vocabulary is amazing. We told Alyssa tonight they were going to have a bath, so Morgan was butt-scooting around the living room singing "bath, bath, bath, bath". Then we were in the bath and she picked up the little toy boat and starting singing "row, row, row, row"...which is for "row, row, row your boat"....She also likes to sing along with Alyssa when she sings Dora's "backpack, backpack" song. All food is "cookies" and all drinks are "milk". She knows who Elmo is and that a dog goes "ruff, ruff" and a duck goes "quack, quack".

Morgan has picked up the lovely art of screaming. She screams for everything. She screams when Alyssa takes a toy, she screams when she wants to do something she physically can't, she screams when she is tired. She screams a blood curdling, they are beating me, kind of scream.

ME - Busy, busy, busy. In the past month I've planned Gary's party and also did an Avon open house. Next month I'm hosting a diaper party for my best friends who is having the twin boys and the following month I'm helping throw my sister's shower. It seems like there is something going on constantly! I really want to get the girls to the pool sometime soon and had plans on going tomorrow, but it's only going to be 71. While I think that is awesome weather for playing outside, it's not much of pool weather.

I hope everyone is having a great summer so far!!
