The 5 Prince Grandkids! What a treat for us to have Darren and Pam and the kids down for a few days. We got the kids together for a morning at the park... GOOD TIMES!

Today I am thankful for...
1. the pictures on the other post of Lisa with Ben and then Mark with Ben. They are cute ones. :)
2. getting to see Jesse and Luci, who have to be two of the cutest kids I've ever seen. Little Luci is such a girl! I love being with them.
3. time with Darren and Pam tonight at my parents house. Even though we all had a long day, (Ben did NOT take a nap, for the second day in a row, what happened to my miracle sleeper?) it was nice to see Darren and spend time with him. And Pam is a hoot, really she's quite funny. I love her!
4. the MUCH cooler weather!
5. the local library, I love it and Ben loves it and it makes us both happy.
6. talking with Amy for a long time last night. Just counting down the days for her and the boys to arrive.
7. OH! My new cell phone! And it's PINK and I love it!
8. seeing Jesse's personality live and in person. He's so creative and fun, it's always an adventure when that little guy is around.
9. two nice little walks today.
10. meeting the wife of one of my neighbors today... she seemed so nice, I'm hoping to talk with her more often.

Crafty Me

I'm pretty excited because I'm not crafty, at all, but when I saw this idea on my new favorite crafty blog I got all giddy because I thought, "I can do that!" and so I did. And since my kids ARE crafty, go figure, I had all the stuff to make them on hand - yippee! All I had to do was buy the goodies that make the wings, which only cost me a dollar (thank you Dollar Tree!). I put them in the kid's little Easter buckets. I hope they like them as much I do. :-)

In a Nut Shell...

Saturday afternoon, 2pm, got home from Costco and thought I might be going into labor. Troy woke up from his nap at 3:30, sensed what was going on and was not too happy about it at all. Thinking it was pretty early, but not want wanting to take any chances, we left for the hospital a bit before 4 o'clock Yep, too early. Walked the halls for an hour which produced more of these... Which felt like this... And at 8:42pm they led to this... We are so thrilled to add a precious baby girl to our family We love you Mia Joy! (7lbs 2oz, 18.5" long)

I know that people come from good places and the intentions behind their comments are never bad, and sometimes they're actually funny, but sometimes I just want to say, um, really? Is that the BEST thing you can think of to say? Here are some of my faves from last week... "I'm going to un-friend you on facebook because you do not look like you just had a baby a week ago." - sorry? "What's her name? ... Oh I know SO MANY Mia's. Like, SO many." - great. "Are you guys finished yet? Is there some literature out there I can get for you (to teach you about prevention)?" (This one is my favorite) - "I'm the oldest of three and I am SO glad my parent's didn't have a fourth." - um... okay. This is the one I hear from almost everyone, it's not necessarily a bad thing to say, I just get it A LOT, "Two boys and two girls? Oh, the perfect family." Does that mean before Mia we had an imperfect family? I also hear endle
