Lucky!

I am very lucky to have the family that I have! I am very grateful for them, and I try hard not to take advantage of them!

My birthday was nice, even though we didn't celebrate on Friday. Larry had to work, Becca & Brandon went to Dallas ... so we celebrated on Sunday (2/8). Mom & Dad gave me some good stuff ... including a hyacinth plant! Larry and the boys gave me some great picture frames. (One says FAMILY and the other says LAUGH.)

Brandon got the job he applied for ... it's in Dallas ... so he and Becca will be moving. He starts the first of March. They are still working out the whole custody issue with Hailey.

James is getting over a cold. He is VERY ready to start school - he asks me when he can go on a weekly basis. (I can enroll him this summer.) It's strange to think that one of my kids will be in Kindergarten so soon! He has decided he wants a Transformers birthday party. So, we are slowly getting ready for that. (We buy a thing or two when we go to Target.)

Colin is getting SO BIG! I gave him this cool new ball: And, he LOVES it! He can grasp it better than any of his other baby toys. When you touch Colin's cheeks, he opens his mouth SO big. I always ask him if he is going to try to bite me!!

Larry is enjoying his "new" job at SAWS. (It's really the same job he was doing as an intern, but now he gets paid more and benefits will start April 1st.) He is still working at Best Buy ... but we hope that by the end of March he will no longer be there.

I have been winning some really great things as of late. Most recently, I won $20 from Coke and $50 from FTD. (Larry used my $50 to order flowers for Valentine's day. So, I know which flowers are coming because I picked them out, but I don't know what's written on the card!!)

I will post a few new pictures of the kids sometime this week! :)

Have a great week!!
