I really need to get going...

but I would rather just stay nice and snugly here in our bed with little JG who is snoring up a storm. He came in really early this a.m. with his toothless smile showing his Tooth Fairy reward for his 2nd lost tooth in two weeks. He has finally lost the two front teeth and has the cutest little lisp going on. It reminds me of my Grandma Mayfred when she would take out the dentures and soak them in Efferdent for the night.

Last week at his conference his teacher mentioned that she is having some difficulty understanding him with his new gap, oh well it is only temporary and I want to savor every little minute of this new little milestone is my big, little boy's life. He is growing up way too fast. Gone is the little boy, however am so thankful that he still wants to snuggle his mommy and tell her that she loves her - only when no one is looking.

I know! This one goes so deep for me, Susan. I got leaned on yesterday by the Monkey (we were looking at YouTube) and felt like I was starved for a snuggle.

There is something so special about those little boys that melt out hearts. I still have a snuggler also and love every second of it.

this made me tear up a little.
(and remembered when the boys could still sit on my lap and tuck their heads under my chin)

wishing you a special v-day!

50 is the new 40

There is hope - I realized today that Madonna is going to be 50 in like 3 months - crazy. 50. Have you seen her lately? She looks amazing and is proof that 50 is the new 40 or in her case 35. Here is her most recent song w/Justin Timberlake, 4 Minutes. Not gonna win a Grammy, but makes me want to start doing yoga, I would give anything for arms like that.

Pleased as punch

We got our new vacuum cleaner last night. The home office was kind enough to pick one up along with our PF Chang's takeout. Take out Chinese on Valentine's is a tradition. Anyhoo, as you can see from the photo we basically sucked up an entire Pomeranian in our upstairs family room. I don't know if I should be embarrassed or pleased. I mean we just vacuumed on Monday with the Hoover and I knew it wasn't picking up everything, but this is ridiculous. The home office was so impressed with the Animal he went downstairs and vacuumed up another canine in the family room down there. I am still trying to figure out all of the gadgets on the machine. I seriously cannot figure out how to attach the stair cleaner. It is really funky how the thing is put together, efficient, but funky. I also for the life of me cannot figure out the directions. I dislike how all European companies, Dyson (UK), IKEA (Sweden) just show you pictures. I always thought I was a visual person, but I am b

Gainfully employed

I heard back last night from Cargill , I start back into the world of the gainfully employed as an independent contractor on October 8 th . My old client, who will now be my new client, Jeff wrote: I'm thrilled we get to work together again. This is the most important project our business unit has taken on in a lot of years so I feel a lot better knowing you're going to be part of it. OK now I'm nervous. Eeek - the most important project? Whoa, better bring the A game, but you know I am excited - scared - but am ready to go. I have so much to do before the 8 th , gotta get the list together to make the most of my kid free week (now that litte man is at daycare in the a.m.). Let's see: 1) Paint basement. 2) Purge house of clutter - how can we accumulate this much crap? 3) Goodwill and library drop off - Maple Grove Library is taking donations until Oct. 6 th !!! 4) Get the yard ready for winter - should I plant more bulbs? 5) Put basement back together - IKEA run ma
