Lily slept for the first time today in her big girl bed. She did well the first night. I can't believe that she is getting so big! She was trying to climb out of her crib so even though I wasn't ready, she was. I have to say the decorating is a lot of fun and it was great to be able to go shopping with her, its only going to get better!

Ahhhhhh snow! finally got a snow storm to clear out the air. Our kids just love eating the snow-hurts my teeth to just look at them.

Little bit of a rough day today. I continue to be in a lot of pain and there have been insurance mix ups and faxing issues that have made it so I am not able to get the test done that could lead to me finally figuring what is going on. I am just ready for all of this to be over. It is heartbreaking when all your son prays for at night is for 'mommy's tummy to feel better."

Our kids are nuts, I hadn't realized how big Jackson has gotten. We also looked at two schools today and are trying to figure out if he should go to Kindergarten or go to preschool another year. His birthday is close to the cutoff, and now that Realms is closing it is a hard decision. Everything is so expensive, and we are looking for schools for Lily as well. We obviously did not think about having two kids in preschool at the same time. At least when they are in college they have financial aid and scholorships but some of the schools we are looking at are 10,000$ a year, that is more a month than our mortgage!

I love sleeping kids. They look so peaceful. Jackson is great when he sleeps because he doesn't hear or move at all. Lily however tends to wake up quickly so you can't spy on her too much. This last week it has been hard with Lily as she has been getting her 2 year old molars and beeng crying in her sleep quite a bit, which doesn't seem to wake her up, but definitly has been disturbing mine.

It seems like Jackson and lily are finally starting to get along better. They definitly still have a lot of moments through out the day but overall they are starting to act like they might actually like eachother.

Ahhh painting. Lily was painting a dragon and Jackson painted a rainbow and houses and fire. I was not feeling good. I am so blessed to have Chris as a husband who takes care of me and the kids. Also glad to have great co workers who wil fill in for me on short notice.
