OH...what a day.

it actually wasn't a bad day or anything...just seemed to drag on forever. i'm just now getting into bed and i seriously feel like it's 12am. although just as i was typing that i glanced at the time and it's only 10 til 9!!! haha i just tucked tristan in and we read 2 chapters in the learning from the great teacher book. he really enjoys that book and he's pretty good at answering almost all of the questions correctly! i'm really proud to have such a smart little boy. he's pretty sweet, too. that little girl...oooh boy. she didn't get her nap today so she was a real stick of dynamite! she was very crazy/goofy/silly whatever...and so she went to bed at 7:30. she didn't put up a fuss either...she was TIRED! they both ate really really good (even though frank bought them a milkshake a little too close to dinner). they had grilled cheese and cars chicken noodle soup. cleaned their plates! tomorrow we're starting back up w/ chore charts...they just seem so much more cooperative when we do that. so, we'll see how that goes.

i went to the dr today. i went in for this stupid cough/cold/congestion crud. she said it's just something going around and she gave me a couple of prescriptions...i'll get those filled tomorrow. i also had her look at this weird bump that i've had on my back for a while now...a couple mos. it wasn't like a pimple or anything...didn't hurt...just there. she said she feels like it's some sort of cyst possibly but that she'd rather refer me to a dermatologist. which was awesome because the next thing i was going to bring up was my face that has been so broke out i can barely touch it because it hurts all over. i don't know what's up!! so, she gave me the referral and put on there to have them look at both things...so yay! i'm glad i'm going and it's right over here by the house...so that's good.

anyways...that's about all i know for now. not a whole lot else new. i didn't really update this weekend because i just felt yukky. i slept off and on, we layed around and watched tv/movies, the kids played outside a little, and that's about it. it was just a lazy weekend.

well, i guess i'm off here for now. i don't really have any new pics to share...but i'll try and get some new ones tomorrow and the next day here and there. the kids are LOVING this cool weather...it was 50 all day here today!! i love it, too...although i've been coughing nonstop...so that's no fun. hopefully the meds will help though! so, goodnight for now...i'm turning in early! hope everyone else is doing fine. love yas!
