Update

Our pumpkins. The one is supposed to be a skull and cross bones but it didn't turn out so well.
* So we were at Target the other day and Isaac sees the 5.50 movie rack. I agreed to let him pick one out. They had Carebears, Thomas, etc but of course he wants the Power Rangers. We had a little stand-off (a long time ago I let him have a Power Rangers movie and was ABSOLUTELY appaulled at how violent it was. It went right in the trash but he has never forgotten about it). We argue about it a bit and then he goes "That's fine. I will get it when I am here with my grandma." So self confident! I couldn't wait to tell my mom about that one.
* He also had another zinger when we were talking about my birthday. He asked me how old I would be and when I told him 27 he said "That's old." I agreed and he goes "Well you will be old on your birthday, but grandma is old every day". I love it.
* Laundry has got to be the most depressing chore ever. I can't even bring myself to write it on my to do list because you can never cross it off. It's never, ever, ever done. I think I have done five loads this weekend and I still have towels and sheets and ironing. When I worked for Krista Rogers (mother of five and pregnant with a sixth when I was working there) in high school she always stressed that the number one thing she wanted me to focus on was the laundry. I certainly understand why!
* Things with work have been going better. I am settling into more of a routine which is good and I am not spending 4-5 hours after work doing things which is a relief. I am still trying to figure out a way to include more excercise in my daily routine. I pay for a family membership to the Y for me and Isaac but he is the only one that uses it regularly. My dad and I went biking this weekend and I couldn't believe how much I was huffing and puffing. I've got to get more on the ball.

I, too, can understand why moms complain so much about laundry. It's such a pain! Stupid, never-ending task! Fortunately I can fold my bazillion loads while watching movies or something. That helps a little bit. What I hate is when something (like my favorite shirt) gets dirty the day after laundry day. Makes me grumpy.

I hate laundry too, but I hate folding it more than actually washing and drying.

Isaac is too funny!

OMGoodness, Isaac is quite the little chatterbox, isn't he? He cracks me up. And you do know that 27 is not old, right? ;-)
