Life: No one has puked or had fever this week. It's a January miracle. There is always tomorrow...which is more likely anyway, seeing as how tomorrow is Friday. Viral likelihood increases as the weekend gets closer.
Jack: Today was report card day. All 3 kids had really good reports, so we're alright for another six weeks. Jack will take his first ever state assessment tests in a month or so. EEK! He seems totally unphased by this new reality of his life. Ever the bookworm, Jack is obsessed with all things Titanic. He loves nothing more than a rousing conversation on the problems associated with the doomed vessel. Yes, he uses the word 'doomed.'
Sam: Sam's life is a perpetual round of dirt digging and stick collecting. I hate to squelch the kids creativity and inventive nature, but I'm sick to death of finding sticks (of varying sizes) in the car, in the pantry, in the mudroom. There is presently a pile of sticks stacked up in our side yard that reaches about a foot higher than Sam does. We're not sure what he plans to do with them, but we have hidden every fire starting utensil we can account for.
Sophy: Barbie. Barbie. Barbie. We've reached that age. I'm rather enjoying it, seeing as how I was a Barbie fanatic as a girl child.
Weekend/Life: American Idol is back on. WHOOHOOO!! Survivor will be on in a few short weeks. WHOOHOOO!!!! We have dinner plans tomorrow eve with some friends, Saturday PDaddy has senior photos and a school dance to shoot, and the kids and I will more than likely chill at home. Although, I need to find the guys some new tennis shoes...but oh jeepers, do I hate shoe shopping. Torture. Torture!! Sunday is supposed to be the first warm day we've had in weeks, so I seriously am looking forward to some time in the yard after church. Not sure if PDaddy has pics on Sunday or not.
We've got several trips planned for this summer, with kids and without. Oh, and we're excited about going here with the cousins in June!! HOOHOO!! Check out the indoor water park! Oh yeah, honey. I am so looking forward to summer....and warmth. HEAT!!! Give me HEAT!
Sophy is looking forward to our annual tea party. I guess we'll shoot for some weekend in March or April. Last year, it was still really cold when we did it. I'd like for it to be warmer. Having it around Easter time is always a plus, but it's usually colder here at that time than it is in December.
We have 2 birthday parties to attend this weekend. One at a roller skating rink and the other at Chuck E. Cheese. ARRRGGHHHH! I'm fired up about roller skating, even if I should be ashamed to admit that. I'm a skating maniac. Will anyone find it shocking if I bring my own skates with pink wheels? Hhhmmm....
Well, gee. I hear a snack calling my name......

Good to see that you are still alive and well. You will love the Great Wolf Lodge. We went there for Nick's birthday last year and had a great time and my three do not swim as well as yours.
I keep seeing the Great Wolf Lodge advertised on tv. Looks fun!
Yes, you must take your skates with pink wheels!
We drove by the Great Wolf Lodge a few weekends ago - it looked really neat! And, you know, the Grapevine Mills Mall is just down the road.:)
We also have 2 bday parties this weekend - at the same place, different days. Fun, fun.
