I haven't forgotten about you guys! I'm off doing too many things in too short a time. This is my second night up past midnight just trying to get done what needs to be done. A lot of boring stuff (mostly financial stuff) but I *am* working on that dress that I mentioned a few days ago too. I think it is turning out great! Madelyn had a fitting this morning and she didn't want to take it off. I guess that is a good sign.... All I have left now is hemming the bottom and putting the ribbon on the waist. I have been amazed at how long it is has taken me though. I'm just not a throw-it-together kinda girl. I'm telling you, I've tried! It's just not in me!
Well, tomorrow I need to mail our state taxes and do some cleaning in the morning and then Ben and I are going to take in an afternoon together. I'm looking forward to that! Thanks Beth and Joel for watching the kids for us!
Oh, a funny thing Madelyn did today that I want to get down - Ben and the kids were doing "knock, knock" jokes (the really bad, "whatever comes to mind" kind) and the following happened:
Madelyn: knock, knock
Ben: who's there
Mad: banana
Ben: banana who
Mad: banana bread (long pause) MOM! We should make banana bread!
It was like she just said "bread" to finish the joke and then was struck by the fact that she needed banana bread RIGHT NOW! Okay, maybe not so funny in writing, but Ben and I laughed harder than we have in a while... Then, of course, they wanted to recreate it *over* and *over*! And Greyson was so cute saying "ba-nay-nee bed".
Okay, time to find my pillow. Night-night.
