There's not much to report tonight. We left for the playground before 8:00 and were back around 9:00. When we left, it was already 85 degrees. Yuck-o. Then we had a crazy thunderstorm this afternoon, but thankfully the girls weren't scared because Curious George was occupying them.
My craving for mashed potatoes and sauerkraut has given me a bellyache because I might have enjoyed a little too much sauerkraut today for lunch. I sadly finished off the potatoes but not the sauerkraut so I think I might have to make more tomorrow!
See, just listen to me, there isn't anything to tell today. It was rather a slow day I guess. Maybe I will have something more interesting on Monday!

Cravings
So my craving with this baby is mashed potatoes and sauerkraut. Aren't cravings weird? I've never had a craving with the other two, usually just things I didn't want to eat. With Pnut, it was hamburger and cheese. I love hamburgers so that was really weird. With Pilly, I didn't mind anything I don't think.
Pilly told me last night when we were getting ready for bed, "My sister is beautiful." Such sweet girls! They played really nicely today. They have started to play house, and they played in their room for an hour and a half. I love it!
We discovered that the birds aren't on our roof, they are in it. There are these holes at the top of our house, five of them. Four of them are covered by decorative covers and one is not. So the little pests are in there with their nest and they gross little babies scratching their feet and tweeting over my head. As soon as they are gone, something has got to be done about that hole!
It's not as much fun to post when I can't put up new pictures. It is also aggravating because I save all the pictures on the computer so I can't delete anything off of the camera. I need to remind Joel to check this out.
Any tips on beating the heat?

Another Bird
I love this kid...you know why? She doesn't tell me that she doesn't like her supper before she even knows what we are having. That Pnut walks into the kitchen today after nap and says "I don't like what we are having for supper." "What are we having?" "I don't know." It was chicken casserole with ritz crackers, and she ate it all (after she was threatened with not going in the swimming pool). What a nut! (I love her too, though!)
We had a very busy weekend, I"m thankful that this weekend isn't looking too crazy. We had Mom's Group at the nursing home today and Joel has one game this week, but other than that, we are just doing our normal, everyday things! Yay! Last week had something every single day and most evenings too.
Here is a link to the casserole I made. Joel was away so we tried it. I enjoyed it, but there is one I think I would like better with more sour cream in.
That Pilly, even though she is good about eating, has been very naughty and heart attack-inudcing lately. She has started jumping from the back porch into the swimming pool. The pool is a couple of feet away. One of these days she is going to get hurt!
We had a bird in the bathroom this weekend. I woke up on Sunday morning and it was scritching over my head when I went in. I raced in and woke Joel up! What a wake up on Fathers' Day! Eventually he got it out of the closet and it flew out the open window. They come down the chimney and get stuck, and I think they have a nest right up there by the chimney because I can hear them. I do not like birds!
Well, Joel is giving guitar lessons and I am going to try to get some work done! Lovely evening to you all!

Sometimes I Can't Come Up With a Title
I don't even know what to write about tonight. Today turned into a busier day than it was going to be because a friend called last night to ask if the girls and I could come over and watch her four girls because today was her husband's birthday. She hadn't realized what day it was! Hahahaha. Anyways, we went there, and we all got really worn out but no one took very good naps, there was a problem with our internet for a while so I couldn't work much, we had softball at the dustiest field, and there were just a lot of little things thrown in there as well! Joel's team won the game, which I think surprised the other team so it was exciting, but we were all so dusty and tired we just wanted to go home. And I had to go to the bathroom. I try to avoid using the porta-potties if I can!
I'm thinking about sewing something again. We'll see if it progresses beyond the thinking stage.
Pilly was cute this afternoon. She was trying to tell me something from the other room and I couldn't tell what she was saying so she finally came out with a mitten on her hand saying "cooking club" and she pretended to take something hot out of the oven! We just had cooking club yesterday if I didn't mention it.
Tomorrow we are going to someone else's house, there is a softball game, and Carolyn and I are finally getting to go out after the game! Looks like another busy day!

Pnut's Terrible Experience
Our computer is being uncooperative and doesn't want to read the drives so I can't currently load any pictures onto the computer. Who knows what that is about!
We had a Terrible Experience today. Pnut got stung by a bee. We were walking home from the playground, and she put her hand on a railing to come down some steps. As she was sliding it, she slid it onto a bee that was on the railing. He stung her right on her palm. Poor little girl! I've only ever been stung once, and I don't want to experience it again!
I was wiped out by nap time today. I don't seem to be getting over the tiredness very well! I think the sun really drains a lot of energy from me so even if we go early at 8:30 before it gets hot, I still get really tired!
We got free Rita's tonight. If you are local, they are giving it away on Manheim Pike again tomorrow! I had the Island Fusion flavor-yum-o! The girls had a Peeps ice. Gross! It was so sugary!
Well, Joel and I are going to watch a movie as soon as he is finished with Peggle:) Have a lovely evening!

Blood Work
Bright and early this morning I took the girls and had to get blood work done. They did really well and sat and colored nicely and played with their babies while we waited for my name to be called. They were a little concerned about what the nurse was doing, but they soon forgot that when another nurse gave them a box of stickers. Pilly took three! I don't know why the nurse let them have the whole box! Maybe she is not familiar with the ways of greedy children!
When the nurse poked my arm, it really pinched, and it pinched the whole time it was in there. She finally took it off after a good amount of time had passed and informed me that that vein was not working well. We had to try my other arm. Thankfully, the sticker went right in and didn't really hurt while she was taking blood, only when she changed vials. There were eight vials. That is a lot of blood. I was really tired this afternoon!
The girls were excited because we went to the "Monster Playground" after that and played for about an hour and then we came home and got our books and went to the library. They had a good morning!
Now Joel is off teaching his guitar lesson to his class of 24 and I am going to be relaxing. I got some new books at the library, but I think I'll do a few rounds of Peggle first:)
