365

Here's another installment of my 365 project. I'm enjoying doing this so far but it's only the 2nd week so we'll see how I feel a few months from now.

Last week we got snow here in NC - about 3.5 inches!! The whole eastern part of the state shut down. L had exams the previous week so he only went to school 1 day and last week he went to school on Friday only!! Today was our first day back to our regular schedule in 2 weeks. Good grief! Little T was a bit apprehensive at first but soon had a blast playing in it.

Here's a picture of our street. This is at the beginning of the "Great Snow Blizzard of 2009".

I talked with T up in WVA today. They have tentatively set a wedding date of July 23. Yes, that's a Thursday but its the only date available for the place they want to get married at. We are so excited for him!!! As the plans become more concrete I'll let you know. Oh, and of course Little T is going to be the flower girl. We are hoping that Baby H will be walking by then so they can both walk down the aisle together or as T put it...Little T can drag Baby H down the aisle!

Project 365

I decided to do the 365 project. Well, I decided it a few weeks late so I guess I can call it the 351 project instead? Anyway, here is the first layout I did for week 1 which is really week 3.

This past weekend I invited myself down to my friends house in South Carolina. Little T and I packed up and left Friday around 5 and didn't get back until Sunday night. We had a great time with her and her two cutie patootie boys. I got so tickled at those 2 boys and their antics. It reminded me of my boys when they were that young. Her youngest is full of himself and if he knows he has an audience look out! Her oldest is the same way - so she has her hands full. Ha - we were driving around in her car and all of a sudden her youngest yelled out "HOT DAMN!" OMG - I busted out laughing. Keep in mind he'll only be 3 in a few weeks. What a little stinker! Her oldest, C, was so sweet with Little T. We went to McD's for lunch and after they ate he took her little hand and helped her in the play area. It was so sweet. K pointed out to me that Little T has come a long way. When she first met her Little T wouldn't go play in the play area, she just stood there and watched. Now, she'll go right in and play!

Potty training update: I was going to go buy some panties for Little T so that on Saturday we could have a day of one-on-one training. Since I invited myself down to SC this didn't happen. Today when Big T came home from picking up her at daycare he said that they need a change of clothes and some panties. I said you mean diapers and he said no - panties. Apparently at daycare she doesn't want to wear her diaper! And they said she does very good so tonight I went out and found the smallest panties I could find!! I'm so excited! We tried them on her and they are a bit big but they will have to do.

I don't think I've given an update about T's stitches and his lump. It came back as just fatty tissue. The stitches ended up getting infected because he waited too long to get them out (you dummy!!). He's fine now, stitch free.

I'll post some more pics of the weekend in a couple of days.
