What? I have a blog?

Hello, Internet world.  Yes, I have a blog, I write in in occasionally, very occasionally as of late.  I have had lots of ideas for good stories lately, some ideal things to ponder about, funny life situations, but alas, I have pregnancy stupids and this post is already riddled with red underlinings denoting my bad spelling.  

I can't remember what I'm supposed to be doing, let alone writing about what I am thinking.  SO here's a quick update, rundown, new photos, etc etc etc:  Latest and Greatest:  

• CB has new glasses.  They haven't yet left her face since getting them yesterday which confirms in my mind how needed they are.  I had an idea she was a little far sighted, but when we went to the Optometrist, I was surprised at how much she needed them.  When she put them on, the first thing she said was how big things looked, and how she could read little things.  While I was driving home she said "Mom!  My hands have wrinkles!"  Let's hope this will help when Kindergarten starts in the fall.   
• CB is also riding her bike with NO training wheels.  She is thrilled with her new sense of freedom because she can ride so fast like the wind.  So she says...  Cocopugs hasn't gotten to use her bike with training wheels yet because her little legs are too short to reach the pedals for a full turn.  She is sad about this, but still chases her sister while she rides.  It's been a pretty fun summer so far.  
• Cocopugs is potty trained!  She is a sneakster, though and has figured out that the simplest "I have to go potty" throws her mommy and daddy into a hustle bustle of getting her to said location.  Now, she REALLY has to go when we tell her to finish her milk at supper, or when she is sitting in time out.  She smiles when she knows she's in trouble...  Which alternatively drives me crazy and makes me laugh.  
  
• Our new baby is a girl!  She will arrive this fall, due on Oct 30.  I have already been telling her that Hotel Mommy closes on Oct 15, and if she wants to stay a couple of days after it's ok.  BUT absolutely no later that Oct 25.  It's never too early to establish who the boss is.  (this will be a fun post to read on November 5 when I am writhing in labor pains because she naturally will be my most stubborn child)  
• Pat is working a whole week this week, which has been rare this year, due to the weather.  The economy isn't helping my business too much, lots of kids off for the summer, and we'll see who returns this fall.  But anyway, Pat is booked for work for the rest of summer and into the fall which is good news if the weather cooperates.   It has been a good exercise to see that we CAN exist on a bird wire budget for a while.  I am ready for it to be over, though.  
• Someone is knocking on my door-  gotta run!!
