Kidlet Update and Songs

Well, I am not going to be posting here much before our trip. I thought I would just check in and tell you how it is going.

So far, I have packed a little bit, not too much yet. It doesn't take me long to pack. I will wash a few things and then pack them and we'll be ready to go on Monday morning.

We have to be at the airport at 4:00am so we can check-in for our flight out at 7:00. We are flying stand-by, which is why we need to get there so early. Hopefully it will all go alright and we will be in Vegas by the afternoon.

KIDLET UPDATE:
A few cute notes here about the kids:

• Emma has started to run up to you and throw her arms around you. Then she says, big hug! It is too cute!!


• Aidan and Emma have been playing together for an hour or so at a time. They call Aidan's room the "Kid Club", which means "No Grown-ups Allowed!" It is too cute, but Mommy has no idea what to do with herself!


• Today, Aidan and Emma were walking around the house holding hands. It was priceless.
  

Anyway, I thought I would let you know some interesting tidbits.

I have been listening and adding songs to my iPod for the trip. I thought I would share a few songs with you here. The first one is on Jenny's blog. I love this song and this version is great.


I really love the website: http://www.tunefind.com/. It has a listing of all of the popular shows and movies on it. Each is broken down by seasons and then episodes, featuring the songs that are on each episode. With that in mind, I have been finding a few newer songs that I love. Here's one from "P.S. I Love You". I love Ryan Star from when he was on Rockstar Supernova. Anyway, I love this song, too!!


Since we're on Reality TV acts, here's the new David Cook that I LOVE!!

Okay, one more. This is Beyonce, who I don't normally listen to, but this one is good. I really like the video as well. (Sorry about the sound, it is the best that I could find with the video!!)

I hope you enjoyed. I have been listening to these songs a lot lately.

Tuesday Tunes 30: Happy St. Paddy's Day!!

Here are a few of my favorite Irish artists/groups!

This is the song that I was addicted to by the time I came home from Europe in Junior High. We listened to this album while driving through Paris. It will always remind me of that time. I love Enya and her music is so relaxing.



The other group I have chosen is The Corrs. We listened to them a lot on Morning Star. That's where I became addicted. Here's one of my favorites!



Happy St. Paddy's Day!!

Manic Mondays: 1 Week till Vegas!

I am doing the Manic Monday thing today! I am severly tired!!

Are you a saver or spender?
I am more of a spender than my husband. I think on average, though, I would be a saver. I probably spend way less than most people.

Do you prefer to walk around barefoot in your home? Socks? Shoes?
I try to walk around in slippers and socks, otherwise I am too cold and am always complaining. In the summer, though, it is barefeet all the way!

Do you talk to yourself?
When I am angry...yes. That's about the only time.

*********************************
I am going to do some Vegas stuff and then take a rest this afternoon. Aidan is fighting this cold thingy and I have a feeling we are all fighting it to some degree.

Have a great day!!

Weekend Blogthingy: Traveling

Good day! I hope that you are having a good weekend. We have been just hangin' out around the house. It is a pretty crazy week this week, so we are just trying to stay calm this weekend.

I was going to blog yesterday, but I slept in. It was nice, but I really did miss my alone time in the morning. So, this morning I was up early, doing my homework for my Daniel bible study. Then I was just browsing on Facebook. I am not sure if I like the new look or not... We'll see...

Aidan and Emma have been hanging out together a lot and playing nicely. It has left me by myself on more than one occasion. They go into Aidan's room and play. I am not sure what my role is, except for interceding on fights... This is a new phase of parenting, with its own challenges. Now I am beginning to realize why we thought 2 would be a good idea. At least they can play together.

We have small group this afternoon and then my family is coming over for supper. It should be good.

It is only one week till Vegas. So in honor of that, here's a blogthingy for you this weekend!!
