    Still July 31st

    So, now it is nightfall.  I don't know if I like the web or not.  It's so fun getting this thing put together but at the same time it is harder than i thought.  Still fun though, so I will stop complaining. 
     
    Annie went to Gymnastics and loved it of course.  They did the uneven bars, floor work, and the vault.  I was really surprised to see her almost do a handstand.  She is only in beginner girls gymnatstics and this being her 2nd time at class, i was happy to see a small progression.  Other than that, she had fun and we are now moving her into the Friday class.  She will be in a smaller class with one of her good friends from her old school. 
     
    When we got home, she did of course have a bad attitude about eating dinner.  I know she is just a kid, but she is so picky about food.  Most of the time when she does try something she thinks she will not like, she does end up liking it.  Very funny and frustrating.  Tonight was no different, but she won out (both girls) and i made Velveeta shells for them. 
     
    I get frustrated and think to myself, was i ever like this?  Probably not...hahaha!  My mom would definitly say that i'm just getting back what i dished out when i was a kid.  Of course, this doesn't make my frustration go away.  Had a hard time at bedtime too.  But what can you do right?  Annarae ending up reading a bedtime story to Johnna, which was really neat.  That put an end to the crying. Well better go!
     
    Good night,
    Jen  

    My morning

    Good day,  this morning the girls and i rushed out to the free movie that they show at the local theatre.  It was Clifford, it was cute.  Annie and Nini thought it was both sad and funny.  
     
    Last night, Annarae has really got the hang of riding her bike without training wheels.  She is so excited about it.  Even after falling, she still wanted to get back on her bike and ride around some more.  Johnna is doing great on her lil bike too.  She can ride standing up.  This is all thanks to Billy's patience and persistance.
     
    Tonight, I think we will stay in and watch the movie 300.  I got it from one of those Redboxs.  I went to the website and got a free movie code, which was pretty cool.  Annie does have gymnastics this afternoon.  Second time going to the gym.  She seems to really have taken to it.  I totally thought this was going to be a Nini-thing.  Annarae seems to like it too.  Nini, of course loves gymnastics.  She is pretty strong, flexible, balanced and fearless.  I think all of that makes gymnastics a perfect choice for Johnna.
     
    School starts in like 2 weeks for the kids.  I so want this school year to be to school on time.  Billy has been wanting to start the girls going to bed early, so they will get used to waking up early.  But really, if i'm not going to bed early too, it is not going to that successful.  I really don't like going to bed early.  I'm more of a nite-person.  Well that's all for now.
     
    Talk to ya later,

    Weekend

     It was a weekend.  Nothing but work.  It went by quick, so i really shouldn't complain.  Billy stayed at home and vegged.  The girls had tons of fun playing online.  They have discovered Webkins.  Annarae has a webkins so she can play on the site. 
     
    Today, Monday:  I signed Annie and Nini up for yogakids at the library.  It was pretty cute.  They did yoga and I participated a little. Then it was off to the last day at gymnastics at the rec center.  Billy is home for lunch and you are all caught up to date for now!
     
    Take care,
    Jen

    Friday 7/27/07

    Hi, well this is my 1st blog.  Things are well here in CO.  Billy is tucking the girls in for the night.  I've become addicted to going online, since we just got hi-speed.  Other than that things are pretty much the same!
     
    See ya,
    Jen
