I LOVE YOU EDWARD!!!!
















So I got to the theater around 7:30pm & was greeted by Heidy, Tiana, Monique & some friends. Rene, Karen & Alecia showed up shortly after. There were women of all ages there ready to meet Edward! It was so cool to see everyone so excited! As soon as they opened the doors people were screaming & running to theaters. There were 19 total people w/ us & luckily they let us into a new theater. We had perfect seats & waited another 2 1/2 hours for the movie to start. I LOVED IT! It was so good. I do have to say that there were some cheesey parts & I wasn't totally crazy about who they cast for all the characters. I was disappointed that it was only 2 hours long. I just felt that they rushed through the entire movie. I wish it had been like 3 hours to really show more about Edward & Bella's relationship. Anywhoo...I can't wait for New Moon to come out. Who know when though. Enjoy the pics.

A day late
















So I didn't have time to blog the events of yesterday. Let's see, lots of errands to run before the big midnight viewing of TWILIGHT. I was so excited all day. I put on my awesome "I Love Edward" tee shirt & got in the mindset of Isabella Swan! Noah was a good boy today but decided to pee all over the rug right before Maggie's FBC (Foundation for Blind Children) therapy. So much for keeping his diaper off. Andrew & Isabella came home w/ lots of homework but managed to wrestle a bit. Andrew still pretends that he doesn't like his sister but I know the truth. As for Isabella, she doesn't try & hide her feelings. She adores him & thinks he's the most hillarious thing in the world!

Uneventful Day (at least for me...the grandparents might disagree)
















I LOVE having a day w/ nothing on the agenda & for me it just doesn't happen very often. Sooooo...I canceled all of our appointments today & me, Noah & "Moo" spent the day w/ Papa & Mimi. We arrived to Belgium Waffles w/ strawberries on top & a cold glass of mango orange juice. Papa & Noah hit the sandbox & played outside for hours. Where in the heck does my dad get all his energy from? "Moo", grandma & I hung out inside going through all of Grandma Mimi's bags of clothes & toys for the kids in Colombia. They are leaving Dec 9th & will spend their first ever Christmas away from home. I'm really excited for them cause they are really giving a Christmas to some kids that have never had one before. It was fun hanging out & then being served a steak lunch w/ fried rice & salad. Every time we go there they feed us like KINGS & QUEENS. I love it! We kept Noah's diaper off all day & he didn't have any accidents. Problem is that he didn't go in the toilet either (at least at Papa & Mimi's). Noah fell asleep to "The Little Rascals" w/no diaper & no problems. We drive all the way home & no problems. We get home & I see him hiding behind the kitchen table on the chair & yep, you guessed it, pee everywhere! It was a whole days worth! I cleaned it all up & Noah is nowhere to be found & then I hear him in the bathroom. He had put his little toilet insert in on the toilet & was pooping on the toilet!!!! What a big boy!!!! A lolipop was the award of the day & he enjoyed it while dancing naked! Maggie got another shot at peas & did pretty well but not as great as yesterday. Don't worry Maggs, practice makes perfect! Well Noah decided to give it another shot of peeing on the toilet but this time only made it to the bathroom. He peed all over the wall next to the toilet. At least his aim is getting closer :)
Grandma Mary picked up Andrew & Isabella from school & took them to play tennis & then out to dinner. As if Grandma Mary didn't already bite off a lot today, she's gonna babysit so that Stephen & I can go on a date! YIPEEE! It's so amazing that my kids have such INCREDIBLE grandparents that love them so much & sew into their lives. They are blessed & so are we!

First Day of Blogging

11/18/08
Today was a pretty good day. Wisked Andrew & Isabella off to school after making pancakes for breakfast (different from their normal cereal & protien shake). We were actually not rushing around this morning & I honestly think it's cause I started my morning off with prayer. It seems that when I do, God always provides time in my day. Funny how that works! Noah, Maggie & I ran some errands & then came home & played & ate lunch. Maggie had OT (Occupational Therapy) w/ Connie at noon & Maggie had her first baby food!!! The first Lent kid to actually like peas! She loved them & she ate amazing! Connie was so excited & said that Moo was doing awesome. She even got a little pissed when we stopped feeding her. She wanted seconds! After about 20 minutes of Noah beating me w/ a wooden sword, it was nap time! I got to work on my hair clips for a little while. I'm doing new ones w/ velvet ribbon & rhinestones. SO CUTE!!! I'll attach pics for you all to check out. Something crawled up my bottom & I even decided to make a beautiful meal for my man, lasagna & a spinach salad. Yum Yum (don't get used to that Stephen, it won't happen very often)! After Isabella reading Daddy a story, Stephen took her & Noah to get ice cream for shakes while Andrew & I stayed home & wrestled. I tricked Andrew & told him that I was pregnant again. He about had a heart attack! I told him that's why my belly is so big. I seriously had him going for at least 15 minutes, HA HA HA! Fed Maggie again but she didn't eat as much this time & read Mr. Noah a couple of books.

Wait...silence. They are off to bed & I'm gonna sit on my butt & relax. Thank you Lord for my beautiful family! Oh wait a minute, I hear arguing, LOL! That's our life :)
