Yet another mom of three

Yesterday we had checkups. Everyone is fine and dandy, though Alyssa is my shorty at only 75% for height. :-)

We all went to Target yesterday at 5:30. This is not something I am stupid enough to do on a usual bases. But, I needed some medicines and notebooks, we had a playdate earlier and Bill was not going to be home till late. Anyway, I yelled at Alyssa for running away in the store and she just screemed and screemed. :-( She could not calm down. In the car, she was just SO loud. I stopped the car, got her out and she and I stood by the side of the car waiting for her to stop crying. I guess it is good that 3 people (1 I know, and 1 I have seen around) stopped to yell out and ask if everything was OK. I had to reply that it is OK, she just wont stop screaming. LOL ;-P

We got home and I put Alyssa in her room till she could calm down. I just couldn't inflict her on the other kids anymore. I stayed in my room for 7 minutes and went into her room. When I went in her room she was asleep. Hmmm... what to do? It was only 6:30, hadn't had dinner, and hadn't gone to the bathroom in a while. I decided to let her sleep and went to bed a little early figuring she would be up at 4 or something. I went into her room at 7:15 when getting Rebekah up and she was awake in bed (I don't think for long) and just the sweetest little thing. She DID have to go to the bathroom and had 2 big bowls of cereal for breakfast.

Hoping for the best today. Alyssa has her first gymnastics day. Matthew and Rebekah will both have homework and Matthew has soccer from 6-7. Well, I guess if it ever stops raining and the field isn't too drowned. The clay soil around here doesn't always drain well and we have had a LOT of rain lately. Lets see.. .9" today and almost 1.5 inches this month.

I am uploading a ton of new pictures, the pointers are going to be on the right. I am probably going to have to delete some old pictures, let me know soon if you want any of them. I am going to have copies of them all locally, but you might not know what you want unless you can see it. :-)

I am going to tell my family about the wedding pictures. Hopefully some people will be able to take a look. Remember, if you want a wedding picture that is too dark, don't worry about it, I will lighten it for you. I just couldn't fix all the pictures I wanted to upload, I would never have gotten it done. The wedding album comes up with some thumb prints. You can either choose to see more little pictures, or click on one of the little ones to get a slightly bigger one. Ask if you have questions.

The pictures from Lisa's house are fun. Too bad I didn't feel comfortable putting up the _baby_ naked twister pictures. Wonder what type of google hits that might do.... ugh.... I will leave it up anyway.

If I wanted to look smart, I would go back and delete a whole bunch of messages here with me spazzing out about comments. :-) Well, instead I am going to leave them in and look stupid. I just signed up for a different comments server and it even sends me email if/when I get a comment. Please give me a comment or answer the mini poll so I can get mail. :-)

I guess I wont have a mini poll. I just got an update on the comments server.

Update (August 31, 12:25 AM EST): The server has been repaired; however, due to the fact that it is Labor Day weekend in the US, I may not be able to reinstall/reconnect the server until Tuesday, September 2 (or possibly September 3). I apologize for the downtime; I will make sure to keep this page updated.

I guess patience is key at this point, but still, if you have a suggestion for that free comments server, let me know.

Looks like YAACS comments has been down more then up since I came back from vacation. Anyone else have a suggestion for a free comment server?
