TWILIGHT!!!

For those of you who don't know this already, I LOVE TWILIGHT!!

About 6 months ago I read the whole series all 2000+ pages in a weeks time! It would have been faster if I didn't have kids to take care of!! The 1st 60 pages I read when I got the book. Then I got busy with soccer season, which was in full swing, and put it down for about 2 weeks! Then my friend who told me about the series told me she was onto the 3rd book. So I had to restart it, because I just had to know what she was so in love with! Well, after dinner and putting the kids to bed I read for a few hours! The next day, I was really busy and had to wait until after dinner again! Well I stayed up until 4am finishing that book! The next morning I had to take Sophie to school and right after I went to the book store and got the second one! I got the next one on Thursday, and Marc went and got me the last one on Saturday morning, because I finished the 3rd one at 4am on Friday night!! I was done with the series by Sunday night! I even went online and read the draft of the first part of the 5th book!

Well I am officially hooked!! I have gotten at least 5 others hooked on them too!!

So if you didn't guess I was at the midnight release of the movie coming to theaters.

And, why wouldn't I be at the midnight release of the movie coming out on DVD!!

I have a Twilight Throw, pillowcase, and two shirts!! I'm lame, I know, and I don't care! Marc thinks they are the stupidest books, but as you guessed I don't care!!

This was the line about halfway! It was crazy!

So last night Emily and I go to the DVD release party, which was a line! There were a few people dressed up and it was kinda boring! We did have an ok time! I did win a $5 Twilight gift card for answering a Twilight trivia question! The question was, who did Stephanie Meyer dedicate Twilight to? It was her sister!! YAY me!!

As you can see my blood pressure was up from posing with my man!!

When we got home we watched the movie! She cried at the meadow scene and got really scared at the fight scene! She was like "Mom, what happens tell me, I'm shaking here! I'm really shaking!!" She was balling!! It was so pitiful!

Needless to say I will be visiting Forks before I leave Washington! Look for that post soon!

A Good Morning!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Let me start off by saying I had a CRAZY dream last night! It was about my computer being hacked into! I was on it while it was happening! So I was watching all of these things come up that said things like, "copying info, passwords, etc!" I had NO WAY to stop it! I was flipping out (in my dream, of course)! I was yelling for help, and no one was helping me. There were lots of people around on their computers, but they just looked at me like I was a crazy person. Then a little box popped up that said "erasing everything on computer!" OH NO!! There was a little box that I could click on that said "stop action." So I clicked it and my computer turned off! Then I woke up! So that was my crazy dream! It doesn't seem so crazy, but it really felt that way.

So this morning, like usual, I got the girls up, and laid Sophie's clothes out for her.

I got Emily up and sent Maddy to get dressed.

They are really good about being able to dress themselves! Madeline doesn't even need my help picking out her clothes (she won't let me anyways, so I am happy she at least can match!)

Then Sophie comes into my room all dressed and ready to go! Let me tell you this is an accomplishment all on it's own! She has HATED school since the day she started! Throwing fits daily about not wanting to go to school. Now after months and months of fits she loves it! We have a neighbor/friend who has a little girl the same age as Sophie and she is in her class now and they ride together! I thought this was the answer, a friend. So I took the girls the first day, and Sophie still threw a fit!! UGH! So then the other little girls Mom took them and Sophie was WONDERFUL for her!! So there was my answer, me not taking her!

Well, now that I have drifted from my story, I will take you back, Sophie and I are in my room and Maddy comes in.

Sophie says "Madeline wore that shirt yesterday!"

Now I am thinking the same thing and I asked Madeline if she was! Madeline says, "NO, the one I had yesterday is in the dirty clothes!"

So I asked her to go get it! She comes back with no shirt, but still says it's not the same shirt! So I sent her looking for the dirty shirt.

I turn to Sophie and tell her that her sister is a crazy girl, and Sophie looks at me and says "that's the same shirt!" It was so funny! I know, I know you had to be there! It was just so cute! The way she said it, the way her eyes looked, the way she had her hand by her mouth like she didn't want Maddy to see her say it! So that was the first funny part! Even if you had to be there, the memory will stay with me (hopefully!)

Then we go downstairs, I get cereal for the girls poured and served, talk about lunches, brush hair, brush teeth, talk about today being St. Patty's Day, and see if the girls have green on (All but Maddy do, but her pants are blue/green does that count?)

After their hair is done and teeth are brushed, I load their bowls in the dishwasher and give out the chill pills (vitamins).

Then it's time for coats and backpacks! I help zip and put on.

Then I get my kisses and huggies!!

Then it's time!!!

(this is how I am feeling!)

This is the first time all three of them have walked out of the door at the same time for school!!!

OH MAN!!!

I can feel it!!!

They walk out!

I yell "I love you, Magical to me!(lame, I say it all the time that they are magical to me, so now I just say at random ALL THE TIME "Magical to me")

Then I take 2 fingers and with a grand motion I SLAM THE DOOR!

Then it just came out a BIG GIANT WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

It just came out! There was no stopping it!!

So I immediately look out the front door and Emily is turned back at the door just laughing her butt off!!!

I started laughing and yelled I love you again and closed the door!!

So I came in and sat down and wrote this post before I forgot the details!! I forget everything these days!

Well that is my story! Hope you found it amusing!

Sophie - right after she was born!!

Lazy days!

Marc is working CRAZY long days, 7 days a week! So today was a rare occurrence! He came home early! He got home at 11:30 and then worked for a few more hours! Then he sat down to watch a race that he found out wasn't even on! Then Maddy joined him. Sophie soon followed! After a few, "Don't touch me's" this is what I found!

He even naps with his boots on!! He cracks me up!

I love these days!

No school Friday!

It was Friday the 13th and school was out! So I decided to take the kids to Olympia to the Hands-On Children's Museum! We have been to the one is Seattle a bunch of times, so I thought it would be fun to see how this one was! The girls loved it and it was very inexpensive! YAY for military discounts!!

Madeline really liked the little vet area!




All three of them LOVE to be center stage! They had a lot of fun with the stage and puppet theater.

Maddy was loving the water table!



Emily is going to be an engineer! Every time we go anywhere you will find her in the building section! We walked in and she saw this section and bugged me the whole time to go there! I saw it was right by the snacks so I put off going to that side for as long as I could! Once we made it over there she was right at home!

She was having so much fun with the push pins! I have to admit they were pretty therapeutic.

Whoops! She said, "Why am I wearing this hat?"

How may I help you today?

They were having so much fun doing this!!

Sophie really liked being a doctor! She said she needed a nurse and before I could step in, Emily offered to do it! Sophie said, "I really need a nurse!" It was really cute!

They had a dentist office too!


There were a lot of different centers here! This is really a wonderful place.

There was a garden, apple orchard, restaurant, market, ambulance, and lots of other areas! If you have the time you should really check this place out!

Emily has a "boyfriend" these days! He calls all the time and he even called as we were driving away from the museum. It was really funny! She told him, "My Mom and I took my little sisters!" I just laughed so hard! She looked at me and said, "What?!" I just looked at her and said, "Yeah right, because you are just too big to enjoy a place like this!"
