I'm doing it again.. going back to school in the Fall. It's going to be one fun-filled household with both of us in school and a house full of kids running around and me working full time. But, hey.. how exciting is life if you're not doing a thousand things at one time? I have given up on the idea of going for something like Mortuary Science because I think it would be easier to go for something that would help me further my current career within the company that I work for instead of heading in a completely different direction.

My 2.5 year old daughter, Gabrielle, has finally given up the binky (pacifier)! It wasn't easy, but we decided this past Saturday night to tell her that the binky fairy came and took her binkies to babies that needed them. It has been easier than we expected the past few nights. She has only asked for it a couple of times. I think we're over the worst part of it and we are so happy that it's gone! Now we just have to get her to use the potty (and stop acting like the spawn of satan with her terrible-two attitude) and we'll be all set.

I didn't leave the house at all this past weekend. I spent much of my time nursing the baby and playing Texas Hold 'Em. I was trying to win the Shootout Tournament on Zynga because they are giving away 2 seats to the WSOP. I got to round 2, but kept coming in 2nd place which then shot me back down to round 1 again. Blah. Had they let you try round 2 more than once at a time, I might have made it to round 3, but that never happened. Oh, well. Maybe next year.

True Blood was fantastic last night! After watching the first season on DVD it's difficult to have to watch only one episode a week. I already can't wait until next Sunday!

It has been such a busy week at work. I am so glad that it's Friday! I really need a couple of days to recoup. I will be one happy camper come 8 pm when I'm walking out the door to head home.

Elizabeth had her 3 month check up yesterday and all is well with her. She weighs 11 lbs 13 ounces and is 24 1/4 inches long. She's a bit smaller than her big sister was at this age. I just looked up her stats in my archives and at 3 months Gabby was 14 lbs 6 ounces and 24 3/4 inches long. I guess there's a big difference between a formula fed baby (Gabby) and a breast fed baby (Elizabeth). I think Elizabeth is just more petite than her sister anyway.

Jeremy and I just finished watching the last episode of True Blood season one. I can't wait until Sunday when season 2 starts!! I am definitely addicted.

... and tweety pages.

This is my all time favorite commericial! The ending cracks me up every single time.

Well.. on to game 7. We'll just have to win Stanley at home! That's the way it should be anyway. Not that I would have minded bringing the Cup home after the game tonight, but it will be more exciting to win it at home.

I am so thrilled! A girl on one of my message boards is selling me her box set of nearly new Sookie Stackhouse books for twenty dollars! She's also throwing in Charlaine Harris' (the author) first novel, Sweet & Deadly - which I know nothing about, but I'm sure it's got to be good. So I should be a reading fool by Monday :)

My husband and I are totally addicted to the show True Blood. I am going to have to get the books (Sookie Stackhouse books) because I have heard that they are even better than the show. The girls I have talked to say they have read all 9 books in just over a week. I can't wait to get my hands on them!

Here are some of the pictures that were taken at the party we had after Elizabeth's baptism. It took me a month to finally get them uploaded and re-sized, but hey.. better late than never, right?

My little princess, Gabrielle at 2.5 years old. This was taken at the party after Elizabeth's baptism. Isn't she sweet?

I have only re-sized a few so far, but wanted to post them before I get too caught up with other things and forget. Here she is.. my beautiful 3 month old baby girl.

My baby girl, Elizabeth, is 3 months old today! She was at the doctor this past Monday and weighed 11 lbs 8 ounces. No length because it wasn't a check up. She was there because I have been sick for about 3 weeks now and as of today I am on my 2nd antibiotic so we wanted to make sure her nasal congestion wasn't anything more than a slight cold. Anyway.. she is good and we will have her 3 month check up next Thursday when she will have to endure 2 more shots. Poor little thing.

Pictures coming soon (Yes, I got my camera back from repair! Woo hoo!) .....

I have been sick for about ten days now and it's really starting to wear me out. I started to get better last week, but then went to work and everyone around me was sick so of course I got it back and worse this time. I finally went to the doctor this morning and lo and behold I have a horrible sinus infection accompanied by a fever. Fun stuff. So now I'm on antibiotics and hopefully within a few days I will be back to good. My husband just took the girls to the pediatrician because we want to make sure they aren't fighting an infection too. Gabby seems better, but Elizabeth is still very congested in her nose/sinus area so we figure better safe than sorry. And since he took both girls I am in the house alone. I can't remember the last time I was in this house and it was silent.
