Neglect and some other stuff

Some major neglection in bloggy land on my part. I did manage to get a review and giveaway up after several hours the other day - Burger King gift certificates anyone?

The porch is almost done, only the floor and a few more touch up areas. Crossing my fingers it doesn't rain tomorrow afternoon so we can finish.

My sister got a job here so she's been apartment shopping. I'm excited, she's moving really close to us, in a beautiful neighborhood. It will be great to have family close by.

Amelia is obviously cutting some hard core teeth. She tried to take a bite of cookie yesterday and screamed at the top of her lungs. I gave her the dreaded pacifier in the car two days ago just to calm her while heading home - her little face is all broke out now. She has such sensitive skin. I'm saying goodbye to the pacifiers for good - I know I keep saying this. None in the car either. Gone, in the garbage is where they belong. I knew there was a reason I hated pacifiers.

I figured out how to make three columns on my review blog and made a button that will make due for now. Thanks to my friend Teri and her amazing html abilities she figured out how to make me a scroll box for html under my new button. I was blown away with excitement and have been making everyone I come in contact check it out - that means you people.

We have a family reunion today - it's supposed to be hot and I really hope the mosquito's aren't out. Oh, how I hate mosquito's - actually, I despise them.

I'm up entirely too early because Landen must have had a bad dream and of course his screaming woke the baby girl up. He kept saying he wanted his pool, in the house, and warm. I couldn't get through to him. Finally after a long, drawn out Three Little Bears story he's back to sleep but my wild one is not. At least she's nursing contently while I attempt to get back organized in the land of the blogs.

We went to a neighboring town to see the free movie in the park with popcorn. It was so cool - you bring your chairs, blankets, whatever and they play a movie on the wall of a big building. Alvin and the Chipmunks was playing - unfortunately after about 45 minutes it rained and we had to leave. It was fun though!

Alrighty, I suppose if I'm up I should start working on the food I have to take today. Ugh! Have a great weekend - hopefully pictures of the porch coming Monday.
