Hello!

All right I know, I've drifted into one of my disappearing acts. I have good reasons - I promise!

Since the last time I blogged it seems like the sickies have been hanging around on my doorstep. It started with Abigale's hurt foot, then two days later at UTI set in.....THEN another day or two later we BOTH came down with a stomach bug! Yuck! I really think we were both exposed to something with all those extra doc visits! Then the last week or so allergies hit hard and my voice gave out...I'm better now, but I still am not at 100% with the voice. No fun.

Abigale has started ballet and tap at the Little Gym! She is adorable! Her class is now an hour, so the first half is the dance and the second half is the gymnastics. It's mommy free now, so the first class was a bit hard - she was checking for me out the window....but the second was better....by the third she had it down! She definitely has to concentrate a bit more during the ballet. There is more instruction and following the directions, so I think beyond the dance itself, this should prepare her for good listening skills. I took a few pictures before we left for the first day - I'll have to share soon!

AND my baby turns THREE tomorrow! Where did that time go??? At library story time yesterday they sang Happy Birthday and she received a book! She was very tickled!

With the birthday comes the birthday party... We decided to have it in the backyard so that has brought about lots of home improvement chores. The living room has been painted (baseboards cleaned, cracks patched, etc etc), as well as the hallway, and everything is now back in it's place. I'm glad that I can check that off the list for a few years! I still would like to paint the patio, but I think that may just have to wait.

PDP moved over to a brand new shopping cart this week! I'm still working on updating some previews and have a few products missing from the store, but they'll return soon!

Ok, for the few minutes I have I think that wraps up what's going on over here! Today is my mom's birthday so I'm going to try to whip up some kind of birthday dessert - better get to planning on that!
