Yes...today I do. This has been the first day since I started taking the meds that the kids have driven me to scream. There are currently tons of legos all over the floor in this room. They want to take the Thomas tracks out now. OY BOY!

Thomas playtable is a permenant fixture on our living room!

I just told my DH that I want an iPod. Let's see if he takes the not so subtle hint. My BD is coming up in a few weeks....I will let you know if it works out!

Newer models are digital and you can chose any station on the dial. They should run from $30-$45 US$.

John, really like that one, it would be great, if only my Honda did not have it's cig lighter under the dash. The iPod would be facing the floor, lol.

PJ-

Mine came with two screw on extensions and locking arms so that you could mount it just about anywhere and make it work. It does cost more than some of the others, but works better than the cheap Griffin one my son bought. The digital tuner also can be set to ANY channel.

It is Tuesday - that means dinner at my parents house. It is for 5:15....they only live about 2 min from here...wonder what time DBrother will show up tonight!

 

[lillygator]

well another day another $.....or 0.50.

Off to pick up the girls, scrounge up some dinner and tend to DH. He did something to his neck/back and can hardly move. He was off today so perfect opportunity to go to the Dr...but nope!

Hopefully a nice quiet relaxing evening at home....

 

[klineyqueen]

Will we make it to 15,900 before I have to leave?

DS is sleeping over at Grammy's house!!! We have Dukes of Hazard from netflix. Watched RV the other night. It was ok...my DH liked it more than I did. Although, I did laugh a few times!

Brandi, our Thomas stuff is in a big rubbermaid tub. Honestly, we have too much track to fit on a table & there wasn't the right spot for it with everything else. Their tracks run all over the family room and thru the hall into the kitchen. When they are out it can be a challenge to go from one room to the other. I found too many deals with the motorized sets that work on the tracks as well as Amazon deals for the wooden track.

I am currently addicted to Coffeecoolatas and frozen coffee drinks. I do not drink coffee...but I also think I want a coffee maker (we have never had one since we don't drink the stuff.) Frozen drinks are too high point wise on WW. Last night I created my own. It was good but not great. I had to use the coffee that you dip(like a tea bag) to make the cup I needed. I used the following:
1c coffee
1c milk
6 packets of splenda
1T unsweetened cocoa
2 c ice

mixed in smoothie maker.

What should I try to make it even better? Keep in mind it must be low points. This whole thing was only 2 points....for the milk! It was enough for 2 people so we each only added 1 point.

7:30? Be sure to keep dinner warm, but not overcooked.

DS doesn't use all of his track at one time...we have the same problem. He does run it all over the floors but it is ALWAYS in my living room!!!! I just told DH that I would like it moved to DSs bedroom. Eliza is crawling and pulling herself up...so I hear....Mama...get Eliza away please. Mama she is at Thomas... ELIZA YOU ARE TOO SMALL!!!...you get the picture. It is becoming a PITB!

I'll let you know if you got it right! You are I am sure a close guess!!!!

 

[klineyqueen]

DS is still in bed from his afternoon nap!!!! I just went and opened the door to get him up! I don't want to be the late one this week!

 

[lbgraves]

OH NO! Better get him moving! I remember when DD started trying to move around at 10 months. Suddenly, DS didn't like her getting to his stuff...even though he would give it to her when she wasn't moving on her own. He didn't like her using her own mind I guess.

Liza is very early with her moving. She pulls herself up and lets go. She even took a step...she just turned 7 months!!!! She crawls so fast, I can't even believe it is my baby!

 

[klineyqueen]

Only 11 more...someone help me get to the next milestone!!! Please....

 

[klineyqueen]

I will get close and Becka will swoop in and give me the ole pirate!!!!

 

[klineyqueen]

I have to leave in 10 min...I have more than a min per post...unless Lisa takes a few....or Angie....or...or...or....

 

[klineyqueen]

DD just started to cry....she is so tired and refuses to nap!!! Crazy child! DS loves to nap and DD hates to nap! I wish I could have them somewhere in the middle!

 

[klineyqueen]

The kids are all settled...Jake is groggy...Eliza stopped screaming...mom wants to get to the milestone....and we need to leave for Grammy's!
