Nothing much going on around here. Just work and sleep for me. Thursday night Jayden spent the night with my Dad while everyone else was at work or out of town. He got to drive in with my Dad to work and my Mom and I picked him up on our way home. He was pretty excited to get to go to Pa-Pa's work, although he was very shy while he was there. Imagine that, Jayden shy?!?!

Friday night we had yummy steak and potatoes with the Boyer's. I guess that I can't really address them as just Eddie and Megan anymore! How great! They are finally in the "parenting boat" with us! I held Clarie while the boys got everything ready. Then I helped clean up in the kitchen while Megan took care of Claire and Jayden fell asleep on the couch! After dinner we went to Chili's so Megan could get out of the house for a bit and we could get dessert! Yum! It was Claire's first trip out to eat! I love being a part of their "firsts" just as they were a part of ours!

Saturday we tried to go see Meet the Robbinsons, but the line was REALLY long! So instead we just headed over to the bookstore to buy Babywise for Eddie and Megan. That is the best book. I recommend it to anyone and everyone for helping with those first few months. It has worked so wonderfully for us and so many others I know. Then we headed home for a nap!

Saturday night I got the taxes finished and e-filed. They were accepted so as soon as I get the check we are paying off our Honduras trip (no fund raising this year) and getting the dead tree cut down. Other thoughts on how to spend the extra: new tv for the bedroom (really needed since I have to sleep at weird times and I can't let my 3 year old roam around the house alone), buy the rest of the furniture for the living room (missing two bookcases from IKEA - if they would ever have them in stock!!!) best choice - savings for when I have the next baby and stay home for 12 weeks. So we'll see...

Sunday was church and lunch with friends and family. We saw the O'Neals which was nice. And we also ate with the Jones whom I also love. Fallon is so awesome!

Tomorrow, finish picking up the house for the housekeeper and sleep! Fire department tomorrow night. Then back to work Tuesday and Wednesday night. Then LTC this weekend. No, it never ends - especially in April! Have a great week!
