Random Ramblings

This is the oh, so special part where I get to vent about my husband taking the digital camera to work! At some point I will have it back and we can get new pictures on here! In the meantime, no, I did not win a 32" flatscreen TV from The Ellen DeGeneres show. I'm sad, but somehow I will make it through. Where would we put one anyway?

We have all gotten over the flu now, except for some residual coughing and excess fluid in the head. Someday I'll be able to hear again. That is, if I can stop coughing long enough to hear anything.

Emma is obsessed with Dora the Explorer! She now has sheets with Dora and Boots and is getting a watch for Easter. She runs around with a backpack on and keeps giving directions to Lily and me about such things as "Put your feet on the pedals and pedal, pedal, pedal!" She's also getting really good at identifying colors in Spanish. And Lily is learning the word for jump (I'd write it but I have no idea how to spell it).

Lily, other than learning a smattering of Spanish, is getting in her molars. We noticed last night that she has two in on the top (no telling how long they'd been there) and her bottom gums are swollen. She's been sleeping less and grumpy more. Good times. In her spare time, she likes to slide, sweep, take her plate into the kitchen after meals and point out every round shaped item she can see: lemons, pom poms, balls, crab apples, etc.--all termed "ball".

Well, time to vacuum the house. Who has more fun than me?
