12 YEARS OLD: Oh Well, Naturally, Father Doesn't Know Anything About That.

14 YEARS OLD: Don't Pay Any Attention To My Father. He Is So Old-Fashioned.

25 YEARS OLD: Dad Knows A Little Bit About It, But Then, He Should, He's Been Around So Long.

50 YEARS OLD: I'd Give Anything If Dad Were Here So I Could Talk This Over With Him. Too Bad I Didn't Appreciate How Smart He Was. I Could Have Learned A Lot From Him.

Fun at the park

My Girls

10 more shopping days, everyone!!!

Christmas Cards & life at 38 weeks pregnant.

The kids & I are sorta bored of being pregnant & waiting for baby to come so we've been trying to keep busy by making handmade Christmas cards for you all. --Stay tuned.
I get all excited every time I go to the doctor & they seem to think the baby will be born "very soon". Last week I was 1.5 cm dilated (TMI) & I went home thinking I would deliver that night. Maybe they are not used to people having more than 1 or 2 kids. I think your body gets ready way sooner after having a few kids. Anyway, I feel like unpacking my hospital bag just in case my baby will never come out & the PJ's I packed will get moldy.
Mac & I have been watching TV series every night to pass time. We're watching DEXTER about a serial killer. No wonder I only have contractions at night & they go away in the morning. Too much excitement.
Anyway, sorry to bore you with my boredom. Tomorrow I will sleep-in till the crack of noon.

Fun with friends (Birthday Party for Carole & Shane)

Carole's Birthday

Carole celebrated her birthday with some class mates. Needless to say it was very loud & hectic but she had a lot of fun. Carole & sisters made marble cake the day before & we did what we did last year; set out a lot of different toppings & colored whipped creams for everyone to put on their piece of cake as they like it. I'm glad Mac was there to help with games & to try & control the mayhem.

As you can see she also got a lot of presents from her friends.

After the kids went home Carole & Daddy made a nice birthday dinner for all of us. Then we all sat down & enjoyed Caroles Birthday present Wii game set (Sports).

Getting ready for the big day

Well my hospital bag is slowly being packed. This time I will not be doing all the packing once labor has begun.

I have 4 weeks 'till due date but hoping it wil be a little earlier for my sanity & aching back's sake.

I have found a hospital to have the baby at, my last singing job was on Sunday, my passport application is in & now all I have to do is wait ever so (not) patiently.

School Visitation Day

Today I visited the kids school & got to see some of their classes. Kiki does well in gym class & here is a pic of Carole in art class. She is making a cake out of paper & beads & little nick-knacks.(sp)
