Randomness......(again)

-Maeve had an absolutely fabulous birthday at her Papoo's house. The party was simple and fun! We had cake and pizza! Kyra has now decided that she wants a "Papoo Party" too in June! LOL! I guess we'll have to add some sprinklers and a swimming pool to the agenda next time!

-We put up a swing in my dad's backyard for the kids. It's hanging from the big oak tree. It kicks ass! Even Richard took a turn on it! (dork)

-I am feeling better this week. I'm still not 100%. It will definitely take a while to get there. At least I know what's wrong. My T4 levels came back fine, so it looks like we caught this in the nick of time. I'm very thankful for that. I will follow up with my doctor on Friday. I will probably have to go in every month or two to have bloodwork done to check my TSH level to see if it's coming down. But that's fine with me! At least I'm getting closer to feeling like myself again!

-Richard is officially FINISHED with his training. He goes to "B" shift this Saturday night. He's very nervous. Pray for him. I know he'll be just fine.

-Maeve now knows how to say "markers" and she asks for them instead of the crayons. Great. Once again, thank God for washable markers!

-Maeve is now in her "big girl bed". The crib is still up, but it's going to come down soon. She doesn't even bat an eye at it anymore. She climbs right into her twin bed for naps and bedtime. We have a rail that we put up for her. She's actually sleeping very good at night. Her covers stay on her better and she doesn't whine for us to come into the room and cover her back up. I'm kind of happy, but kind of sad at the same time. The crib will be put away FOR GOOD. *sigh* The only thing left is potty training (and she's nowhere near ready for that).

-Parents SHOULD NOT let their children push the little grocery carts at the store. It's not cute. It's annoying. I wish they'd all get out of the way!

-Maeve just wrote what looks like "hi" on her hand with the marker! I'm not kidding! My kid can spell! LOL!

-Dear Zoe, please stop doddling in the house. You do it behind my back ALL.THE.TIME. It's not funny. Your daddy is tired of it too and he's tempted to put your crate outside and have you stay out there!

-I just heard that it might be 90 degrees on Friday! Nooooooooooooo! I'm not ready for the heat!

-I can't believe that school is almost out! WOW! Time flies! I'll soon have a 1st grader! *sigh*

-I just took a video of Maeve singing "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star". I'll try to put it up soon.

I saw your post about your dad. I am a New York Times bestselling author working on a new book about father-daughter relationships and thought you might want to contribute. Please visit my page for details about submitting stories for Daddy's Little Girl.

Calem will be two this year also, in June. They have the big boy bed set up, but he isn't using it yet.

Oh, and I totally agree with the little cart thing, especially when the child can barely walk, and it looks like they are going to get clobbered by the big carts.
