Catch Up

I haven't posted since the New Year but not much has been happening either.  The girls and I had a lot of lazy days around the house.  I'm happy to say though that even with three weeks off school the girls did not seem to get on each others nerves and played very well together.  I did send the girls outside every day to play in the snow.  They would complain about having to go outside but once they were dressed and out they had a great time and would stay out there for two to three hours digging tunnels, sledding, rolling down the hill etc.  We had no major injuries which was a bonus.  The girls did fall over the back of the bench swing in the back yard but luckily it was just a couple bruises and a little bit of a fright.  I think they have learned there lesson about using the swing properly.

The snow has begun to melt and it is nice to see grass starting to poke through the snow.  It feels like spring is coming since the snow is melting and it has warmed up a bit but I'm sure we have more snow in our future.  The girls went back to school this week and were very excited to go back and see their friends and teachers. I'm excited to be able to get things done around the house.  Cleaning while the kids are at home is useless since I pick up one room and then another and by the time I'm finished with the second room the first room is a mess again.  Cleaning is never fun but at least when the kids aren't home there is a sense of accomplishment when the house is all clean.

So onward we move into 2011.  The kids will have school, construction club, gymnastics and Czech lessons to keep them busy.  I have the kids, the house, and my new fitness course to keep me busy and Jason will be busy with work.  While life will be busy we will still have lots of fun so I will keep you posted.
