Ways of the little ones

My husband loves what he calls kayleeisms. Cute yet meaningful things our 3 year old will say. His favorite is "I want to be a super hero, but I keep ending up a waitress."

Kaylee was a little under the weather these past few days. Nothing like a child, sick and still running around getting into trouble. She bumped her lip under a table at her favorite resturant, pretending to be a tiger. She told me she found 4 tigers under the table in sunny Florida.

And Billie, she seems to be learning to deal with life. She will be three months old at the end of the month. Its hard to believe its been that long. She is looking around and inspecting the world now.

2000 Tweets

Wow. When did I send all those tweets. 2000 is a lot of anything. Too bad its tweets instead of dollars. I must like twitter.

So, let me take a moment to talk about Twitter.

Like many people I use it to communicate with friends, near and far. I use it for information, from Blackberry news, just to plain old news. I get political information, is there anyone not following Obama regardless of which side you are on? I have seen road closures in Iowa due to hogs thanks to Twitter. I have kept up to date on recalls, including recent pet food and infant formula issues. I have heard about earthquakes, train accidents, and other events first via Twitter. I even received updates on Fay when it was here and Ike in Texas all on Twitter.

One thing is certain, Twitter can keep a girl busy.

Sunday Afternoon

Baby Billie is full. Time to figure out lunch for the rest of us, so needless to say I'm dawdling instead.

I survived another week with minimal sleep. :) Hopefully it will start getting better. Billie sometimes sleeps through the night.

I am so excited about the upcoming Tivo application for BlackBerrys. I can't wait to see what it can do. I discovered yesterday I can catch the upcoming new episode of Chuck and Knight Rider early courtsey of my Tivo and amazon unbox. I can't wait. I love downloading stuff on my Tivo over the web. Between amazon unbox and mp3 downloads I am gonna be broke. ;)

Friday Night After Fay

I had a friend from work come over to meet my family. It was fun. We played Wii.The only hiccup was the so called carpet cleaners showing up at 7:30pm.

I called the office because we had a leak during fay and the carpet was wet. The maintance guy told my hubby the carpet guys would be in around 7:30p as they were running late. Dunno why he thought they would be cleaning it.

In come the guys just as are about to start playing Mario Party. And they need to have the couch and entertainment center moved. They pulled up the wet padding under the carpet, sprayed some stuff to keep mold away, told the hubby they'd be back sometime next week and left. Me, Erin, and the girls hid in the bedroom while they did this.

Now our apt is even more of a mess, I can barely get in the computer room due to the stuff we moved out of the way.We did get to clean out under the couch and the hubby is talking about moving the entertainment center around to a different part of the room.

I should probably be glad that is the only damage we have from around 20 to 30 inches of rain over a few days.

At least all my bbs are safe and sound. Not to mention my family.

Welcome Billie
