decided to start a family blog, mostly about the grand kids...but also about our daily life (however dull that may be) and post recipes and other things that are important to our family...
these kids, what can I say??? they are just the best, even when life is frantic and frazzelled and overwhelming...I would not trade one of these guys...grandchildren are simply the best...as a mom, I was always busy and maybe did not enjoy my own children's childhood as much as I should have...don't get me wrong, I think I was a GOOD mother, but I am a terrific grandmother...I now realize how fast life can pass us by...I sit more and play with the little ones, than I maybe did with my own...saying that makes me sad, but at the same time, cannot change the past...I can only do better for the future...
this actually was one of my new year's resolutions (tho I rarely make them, cause I do not follow thru...) but, with this one, I have to make it better...but also saying that makes me realize I am still sadly lacking in following thru...life has a way of making your day's hectic and sometimes you just want the day to end...I will (really I will) make this week better...
Zoe of course spent the night last night (is getting more and more since her parents have seperated) but she got up really well and was dressed before I got out of the shower...it didn't hurt that she had brand new clothes from Crazy 8 to wear that had just come in the mail yesterday...I was surprised that she actually liked what I bought...when I bought online, I really liked the set, but was afraid that she would hate it...
http://www.crazy8.com/index.jsp and check out the whole strawberry set...sooooooo cute...
then, I had greg take me to the mall to find the matching shoes, and they only had one pair, and they were in her size...YEAH...
had Si and Cj today and it went well...with all three kids together it gets noisy, but they also had fun...I had found a huge fire truck on sale after Christmas and was saving it, but gave it to Cj today anway and he loved it...had to carry this big truck out to the car when they left...
Sam Zoe Si and I walked up to Goodwill...was surprised that Si did not complain once (she hates to walk) but she had ridden Zoe's scooter and Zoe rode her bike...took the girls for donuts and drinks while Sam got some jeans at Goodwill...were going to go get some ice cream also, but it started thundering and lightening so, we hurried home...since we had tornado warnings a couple of months ago, Zoe gets very worried about storms...
made the kids hot dogs and macaroni and cheese for lunch...Zoe said that she liked the macaroni and cheese and was stuffing her face...she asked who made it and I said Kraft, and she puts her fork down and said, "oh I don't like Kraft..." what is up with that???
after the kids went home, had to go to Wal Mart cause our microwave bit the big one...came home and made tacos for dinner...
Sam just called and asked if I would watch Zozo so she could go out with friends for a little while...I said yes, cause she has not been out forever and she had sort of a rough day with a certain someone...will blog about that later...
