Fear not, we are still alive and well....

Yep, I am fully aware of just how long it's been since I blogged!! LOL I just haven't seem to have the initiative to sit down and do it. I wish I could tell you I was far too busy, but that wouldn't be true...unless mindless surfing the net about Big Brother 8 counts as busy!! I am trying to settle into the swing of things and I'm anxiously awaiting visits from Gigi and Pa and Tracy! It's nice to have something exciting to look forward too!!



Maddy has started school and she loves it!! I couldn't be more thrilled!! It is a complete turn around from last year. She gets up in the morning with no complaints, eats her breakfast and can't wait to get to the bus stop. I was worried sick about starting her in French immersion...needlessly. Children never cease to amaze me. She is like a little sponge soaking up everything Mr. Roy says. She came home yesterday and told me in french that she was a girl with blond hair and blue eyes and she loves horses. All that was said with no apparent shyness to speak in a completely unfamiliar language and with wonderful pronunciation!! Wow!! I am keeping my fingers crossed that she continues on this path!! The picture is her first day of school with her new best friend Allie. She sits with Allie on the bus. They take turns sitting by the window...because that's what best friends do!

The second set of pictures is Sarah sitting in the bottom of the computer desk while I mindlessly surf Big Brother 8!! LOL It's her favorite spot to hang out. I even put a basket of toys next to the desk trying to distract...no way!! She just likes to sit there and play with cord for my mouse. I'll be surfing away and all of a sudden my mouse will fly out of my hand and I'll hear Sarah's little giggle under the desk. That's my girl!!

Hope all is well in your neck of the woods!!
