Let's go Cubbies!!!


So upon checking the baseball stats tonight I noticed that my favorite team, my beloved cubbies are still in first place. 79-50. I'm so excited!!! Not only that, but this is the 100th year since they won a world series. So please tell me this is the year that they break the curse. I just know that this year I will be using my DVR to tape the world series or I'll be rushing home to watch the games. So like I said, Let's go Cubbies!

Friday Fill-in's

1. Dancing to the music while with my girls makes me laugh.

2. The last time I rollerbladed I nearly fell on my butt.

3. When I drive I watch what all the other drivers are doing when they think no one is watching.

4. I saw my daughter standing in front of the mirror talking to herself.

5. Give me ice cream, give me music, give me Star wars.

6. Next week I am looking forward to meeting the girls teachers.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to watching a movie, tomorrow my plans include working on the halloween costumes and Sunday, I want to hang out with the girls!

First day of school

Well today the girls went back to school. The twins are in 4th grade now and Celeste is in her last year of elementary. I'm so sad. She's growing up too fast. They all like their teachers as of today. Celeste is surrounded by boys and I think she's happy about that. This morning I took pictures of the girls.


Here is Celeste.



And Caitlyn, she wanted her hair pink and well it's definately pink.
Now we have Makayla. She got her Emo cut and I put some red in it. It's so cute.
And of course the 3 of them together at the bus stop.

And it's another week....

Well it's the start of another week. Last week was so crazy. My boss was on vaca so guess who had to handle all the problems. Yep it was me. I made it through though. On Saturday the girls and I drove out to Dayton to hang out with my sis, niece and mom. We had a BBQ. Celeste and I got to play the wii. It was my first time playing it. I really enjoyed. You can get a lot of exercise with the interactiveness of the game system. Celeste and I were playing Mario kart and I kept beating her. I told her that maybe Santa will have to drop a wii off at our house for Christmas. I'd love to get the fitness pack. I've heard lots of people have lost weight using it. My sister made chicken that she marinaded in this amazing sauce. It was so delicious. Rob even rode out on his new bike. I don't know if I even mentioned that he traded in his Harley for a Triumph. He loves his new bike. He has put almost 1000 miles on it in a month. I'll have to take a picture and post it. I'm such a loser with my camera lately. I think it's because my mind is just in a million places. Sunday we went to my dad's house to hang out. My uncle came out for Hot August Nights. We always have a family get together on that weekend. On Friday night dad out in Reno listening to music and Davey Jones from the Monkeys was there. He called me and held up his phone so I could hear. He knows that's my favorite Monkey. So on Sunday the girls all played on the slip and slide and were shooting everyone with water guns. They had so much fun.

So lately I've been having a real hard time sleeping. I went to my Dr. because of my depression and he wants to check everything to see what's going on. He gave me sleeping pills and thought that maybe my lose of sleep was making my worse. He also wants me to keep checking my blood pressure to see if it's my bp pills. He doesn't really want to change my antidepressant, because it's the first one to ever work for me. God knows I've been trying them since the twins were born. He's also trying to make sure I eat well and exercise, but it's hard to work out with 3 girls. He wants to make sure I don't go down the road to anorexia again. Well I'll get my blood work done this week and I'll see him the beginning of Sept.

On a good note it's Halloween costume time. Makayla is going to be Hannah Montana, Celeste a genie, and Caitlyn a punk fairy. I've got part of Makie's done. But I need to move my butt and get them all done!

I got to go see Collin Raye and Billy Ray Cyrus a couple of weekends ago. It was a good concert. I love Collin Raye and it was the 4th or 5th time I've seen him. Billy Ray was better than I thought he would be. Miley was suppose to be there, but couldn't get a flight. It was a boys and girls club benefit. I'm glad Miley wasn't there, because my girls probably wouldn't have ever spoken to me again if they would have missed her.

Hillary and I at the concert!
