I decided to spend some time yesterday moving photos from one computer to another. I'm terrified of losing any of these precious memories. I realized something though! I take way to many photos!! Good thing I moved to digital as soon as I could because I'm not wasting anything other then storage space!! I was not near as bad when I actually had to buy and develope rolls of film!! Looking back I hardly have any baby pictures of the boys(film) but literally hundreds of Molly! Of course they are on the computer not many printed out!
My next step will be deleting and thinning them out greatly...do I really need 15 photos of her sitting in a bouncy seat one afternoon?Or sitting on a sofa?No I do not!! After I do that i'll get them onto CD's or something! Molly loved looking at photos of herself when she was a baby, all the funny faces she made and the different people in photos of her. I loved watching all the stages she went thru!

kind of a quick week!
It seems like it was just the weekend but here it is Thursday already!!
Monday was spent busily running around getting things I wanted for Tuesday.
Tuesday, Paul and I had a date at the movies!! Kind of literally!! We were asked to be extras for the George Clooney movie they were shooting some scenes at the Detroit airport. We had to be there at 5:00 am!!! Rediculous!! Thank you sooooooooooooooo much mom and dad for helping out with the kids so we could take advantage of the opportunity. i am so thankful for all you both do for us. I am highly doubtful if we'll be seen in the movie but hey I got to stand like 15-20 feet away from the most handsome man!!! Oh yes and I spent the day with Paul too!! When he wasn't ditching me for his other acting buddies!! Whatevah buddy!!!!
Yesterday was catch up day!!! I needed to get laundry washed, folded, and put away too!! The boys have the system nailed down and Molly is getting there!! She likes to help fold!!!
Today I had my WW meeting and I am down another pound!! So today I actually hit my 5% weight loss!! Yay me!! Still have a long way to go but its really nice seeing the scale going in reverse!!
Tomorrow I really need to do some grocery shopping and I'd love to run to Target and maybe even Kohl's.

Saturday
Today Nick, Joe and I participated in the Walk for Warmth. It is a 3 mile walk and the funds raised goes to THAW (The Heat and Warmth fund) The KIDS club at church was supposed to participate but long story short it just turned out to be us. All together there were about 100-150 people partcipating from high schools,churches, and area business/corporations.
Thankfully, the nasty snow we were supposed to get held off for all but the last 15 minutes of the walk. My face sure is windburned though the wind was very bad.
One good thing happened though! I won a door prize!!! I won a basket that contained two mugs, a box of hot cocoa mixes, some ppretzels and a hat,glove,and scarf set. I will be donating the hat,gloves, and scarf next winter to a collection.
This afternoon the boys had an indoor soccer game. it is a bit frusterating for the team because they play against a few travel teams who still hold practices during the winter. Whereas our practices end even before the fall games start!! So they feel a bit defeated!
After soccer we went to dinner at Boston's it was yummy but I ate to much! I even asked for a box at the very begining and boxed up half my meal!! Oh well!! Why did the waiter need to look so shocked that i wanted a box at the begining of the meal! That was not necassary!!
After we came home from all of that I went and shoveled the 4 inches or so that we received. I am officially EXHAUSTED!!!!!!!!

Day 3 of WB
So today Nick,Joe, and I each painted a birdhouse to hang outside this spring. Molly painted a tiny little canvas print of a castle. She did pretty good so we will hang it up probably in her bedroom. Michaels has these in a section of their store for $1.00 each so maybe we'll get a few other ones. We looked quick and I saw a car and a plane I think so i'll dig around more next time we are there. Other then that it was just laundry and dishes as usual. Tonight we had philly cheesesteaks,french fries, and green beans we,ll technically the guys did!! Molly ate a hard boiled egg(with yolk removed per her request), some french fries, and some green beans(i had to sprinkle a little salt on them) we normally are not salt eaters but some people are I guess shes one of them!! Hey , if salt(a little) gets her to willingly eat corn, beans and what ever other veggies I serve then salted it will be!!
Winter Break Day 2
Well actually day two was fairly uneventful! Nick and I played some of his OutDoor Active Life for the Wii that was fun!! I actually beat him in the jumproping game so I think today we may have a jumpoff!!!
Nick also helped me make dinner. We tried a new Rachel Ray recipe called Chicken Thigh Pie the guys really liked it today! Molly of course would not touch it!! There were sweet potatoes in it which I found out Joe and Paul actually do not care for but they didnt mind them in the recipe! Yay!! Gotta get us all eating healthy!!
