Update

Tired!!!!! All the time!!!!
No excuse, but that is why I have not posted for a while.

1. working on final touches for Bug's Birthday party on Saturday. Hard to find Curious George decorations.

2. Bryan is almost done with the bathroom down stairs. I didn't take any before pictures, and have yet to get down stairs to take any pictures of what he has done. But he has painted the walls (yellow) and the flooring is put in....non-stick tile!!! Easy to install! Took about 90 minutes total! He needs to put the floor trim, and then hook up the sink and the toilet and then I can get in there to finish decorating.

3. Getting ready for the Just Between Friends sale happening at the Spokane Fair Grounds in April. I have found even more kids clothes I want to sell. I am getting rid of all of Bug's old clothes. Keeping the clothes that could be used on for a girl or a boy and when we find out the sex of the baby (hopfully by the end of March) I can go buy some new clothes. I think it would be fun to buy new things, and the fact that this baby is being born late summer/fall and Bug was born late winter/spring the sizes could be off anyway if we are having a boy anyway. And this way if I am having a boy then I can get more excited about this baby by purchasing items just for him. *but I am hoping for a girl- but will be happy with either really*

4. Tulips are pushing up through the grown in my flower beds. :) this makes me very, very happy. Snow is melting!!!! and it is getting warmer and more sunny every single day! I love the fact that when I get up at 6:30am that it is light out side. :)

5. Bug is able to play games at PBSkids.org all by himself! He uses a touch pad on Bryan's lap top and plays the games! He is getting so good at moving the curser around and clicking on the right things. It is amazing to watch him. Hard to believe he is only turning 3 in a few days. I have nothing to do with the success of him playing these games; I give all the credit to Bryan. I have a really hard time letting Bug touch my lap top, but Bryan has been so patient with Bug and that is how he was able to learn how to get it to work.

6. Have been a really bad about sending out Birthday Cards! I still have my nephews cards sitting here to mail. Their Birthday was the end of January. And now I have forgotten my Father's and Brother's birthday the end of February. I am going to get them mailed out tomorrow! *I hope*

7. Feeling a bit better from this chest-cold/Sinus cold. I have been going to see my chiropractor every day for a week for cold lazer treatments. And I have to say...it has worked. I woke up on Saturday with the Sinus pain and by Tuesday it was pretty much gone. :) I am still coughing from time to time, and if I eat certain foods it triggers the coughing, so I just need to take it easy, and dringk lots of fluids. Has been helping.

8. Have been going through my closets and decluttering. I pulled out all my spring/Summer clothes and before I packed away my winter clothes I sorted through them and got rid of the ones that I didn't wear this winter. I think by the time next winter comes, I will be wanting to buy a few new items anyway. I have not bought new winter items for quite a while, since I quit my job a few years back to stay at home full time to care for Bug. It feels soooooo good to clean things out...declutter. I have no trouble bagging up items that I don't want, but taking them to the goodwill stores is a total different story. I have no idea why I feel guilty when I hand the items to the workers. For a split second I want to grab the bags back and say, "MINE!" I make Bryan take the items for me to the goodwill store and keep reminding myself, that I have not touched the items in how ever long (usually a year!)

I can't think of anything else.

I am looking forward to Spring too! I haven't noticed my tulips coming up yet, but I will check.
I can't wait to find out what you're having!! GIRL!!
Good for Brian for fixing up the downstairs. It's nice to have a husband that can do home improvements.
Stay energized for Bug. Get losts of rest for yourself.
