It's so early... I'm so tired....

Stolen from Jill:



I don't know about the news reading, but pancakes are yummy! Yay pancakes! Don't forget to celebrate National Pancake Day on Feb. 12th, 2008 (the actual date was yesterday - Fat Tuesday - but IHOP is celebrating a week late due to Super Tuesday - gah, what is with all the Tuesday love? I prefer Friday. Or Saturday.). You can get a free stack of pancakes at IHOP. So, if you like 'em - eat 'em! I prefer to eat them at home, though. Hubby makes delish whole wheat pancakes for me. Yay!

Wow - tangent!

So it's stupid early. I was up at 4am and just unable to sleep. This is what I get for falling asleep at 10:30pm. My body is like - uh, what's up with trying to get more sleep? I was getting used to the 5.5-6 hours you usually allow. Don't mess with that, yo! And I was like - UGH, I wanna sleep! And Alan was like - why are you awake? And I was like shuddup and go back to sleep. Fun, huh?

Hey, when you don't have kids to wake you up all night (mine sleeps through the night and has for quite some time now, you see), it really sucks when your body just randomly decides to be awake at stupid-o'clock in the morning. Especially as tonight is girl's night and I have to have energy in the dark time. Looks like a mid-afternoon nap is needed!

Right, where was I?

See, this is why I shouldn't try and post an entry when I'm not fully coherent.

Latest news.... Ooh pictures! Pardon me while I scramble to download a few photos from my camera.

*loud noises*

Ok, first off - Thursday was Soren's Pinewood Derby. Hoozah! He went for a more car looking car this year and didn't really think about aerodynamics. That's okay, though. Here he is with his car:



As you can see, he doesn't look very pleased. He was in a foul mood that night because he wasn't winning. He's already started with the teenage attitude of, "I don't care, it was stupid anyway." Let me just say - I'm thrilled about that. Mmhmm.

The same attitude prevailed at his basketball game when they lost. It was a very close game and they all played really well, but that didn't matter. He was a total crab at the end of the game and I growled at him about it.


That's my boys. Basketball fools. Seriously, though. It was a good game. I didn't even get out my book at all! I think the score was 27 to 24 or something. They really played hard.

That was Saturday. Basketball and grumps. We also did some shopping on Saturday. So, exciting.

I have no more thrilling pictures. I know, huge disappointment, but there you go.

Saturday is Alan's birthday. I was going to get him a Kitchenaid Mixer (recent development that involved a promise about cooking dinner every night for a year if he got it), but we decided that decorating the hall was more important. I will be going to Ikea on Thursday and buying a shoe rack thingie and a hat rack thingie. Happy birthday, Alan! Poor guy. I'm still debating this, though. The selfish part of me is like - dinner every night for a year? No complaining? Gah - I hate cooking. HAHA! We'll see what the final verdict is later today.

Just a little update on the fertility front - we have an appointment with a specialist on the 15th. If you could remember us in your prayers, that'd be super! :)
