Videos and Update

Here is a video taken probably a month ago of the girls dancing and me singing. lol. We did this for my mom and I couldn't get the video to upload until now.

Saturday was our Troop Sleepover. The boys stayed with my friend Pam. She said they did very well thank goodness. The sleepover started at 6pm Saturday night. We played games, danced, had relay races, made crafts, and I did face painting. Then they watched Christmas movies and for our late night snack we had marshmallow snowmen and christmas tree graham crackers. Bedtime finally came around midnight. I finally laid down for about 10 minutes when Kailey woke up with a fever of 105.6. Me and my friend Gini took her to the German Hospital in town. They gave her a ton of medicine and said she had pneumonia. I sat up with her most the night so I didn't get any sleep. So Sunday me and Chuck took turns sleeping. He had worked night shift and didn't get to sleep any either. So last night we are all dog tired. We all sleep till about 7:30am this morning. So both the girls are home. Here is a video from the sleepover:


Chuck MISSED his PT test. Yes he MISSED it! So I don't know when he will take it. He said something about taking it tomorrow. I hope he does, I wanted a school date by Christmas, now its looking more like sometime after the New Year he will get his school date. Either way I'll keep ya'll updated.

Well I'm going to have to run. After such a crazy weekend the house is a mess. I have to clean and do laundry and I really don't want to. Is it nap time yet???

Just rambling...

Good Morning World! I'm just sitting here at the dinning room table with CJ in my lap. I figured I'd update while I had a break. Not much going on really but i'm sure I can come up with something to ramble on about....

Yesterday was Chucks first day of school. It's only 3 days long. He didn't get home till late last night and said he will be working late again tonight also. He works way to much. Sometimes I hate the Army Life. He got to go hang out with the guys last night after school to get some off time with some friends. Must be nice huh? I think I'm going to go over to a friends house one Saturday night and watch a movie or something so I can get out of the house too.

Today my Brownie Co-Leader Jennifer is suppose to be coming over to plan the Troop Sleepover. I haven't heard from her yet though. Don't know where she is. The Troop Sleepover is this Saturday night and the girls are so excited about it. I need to pull out their NEW sleeping bags and let them air out so they don't smell like a Walmart Warehouse anymore. We have so many fun things planned. You have to check out the food we are going to make.
We are going to make these yummy looking marshmallow snowmen:

And these Honey Graham Cracker Christmas Trees:

I'll have to make sure to get lots of pictures of my girls doing this. There will be 16 girls there Saturday night. Wow we are going to have our hands full!!!

We have all our Christmas presents wrapped. Not all of them are under the tree though because I don't want to temp CJ into tearing them all open. Stockings are full and hid in the closet. We had them handing up in the livingroom but CJ kept finding a way to pull them down and then would try to put them on his foot while saying "sock, sock". So yea no stockings are hanging up this year. But they are ready for Christmas! Now all we have to do is wait on the boxes my Mom and Dad sent us from home, to finish stockings and filling under the tree. I'm getting excited!!! Oh and Chuck found out he isn't on call Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, isn't that wonderful news!!!

Real quick before I forget...Cassie's Class was in the Paper:


Well I better go I guess. I need to clean up the livingroom. The kitchen and dinning room are clean, but the livingroom is a train wreck. I hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday! Happy Holidays!

Tuesday Post

So sorry I haven't posted in so long everyone. Friday I was sick with the stomach flu and I've been recovering from that. CJ has been sick and well just everyday life has not given me the time to sit down and post. So here we go, a long over due update on the Payne Family...



The Girls want their teeth LOL!

Kailey lost her first tooth last Monday.
It was her top right one...here is a picture:



Of course anytime you pull out the camera CJ has to come get in the picture:



Speaking of CJ, he has become a pro with using a spoon recently. There is a long story behind him using a spoon. I tried many spoons and he wouldn't use any of them. He couldn't figure it out and he just didn't like any that I gave him. So when we went home in May of this year, we purchased some Lightning McQueen plastic spoons, they have Lightning and Sally on the them and are different colors. Well once he saw those he WANTED to use a spoon. So now he loves using a spoon and is quite good at it I might add. Here he is eating some yummy vanilla pudding with his Sally spoon:



Yesterday, Monday, I babysat a little girl named Kaylie. CJ seems to really like her. They get along great. He shares with her and everything. Here they are watching TV and eating popcorn yesterday:



Back to loosing teeth. Cassie lost her 5th tooth today during lunch at school. She went to the nurse and she gave her a little plastic treasure chest to put it in. She was so excited to show me when she got home today from school. Here is ms. toothless:



Of course again, I pulled out the camera and CJ came running to say "cheese" lol
CJ has been very sick, so he looks awful:




Poor kid has an awful runny nose, puffy eyes, and just feels plain awful. He is eating fine and drinking well though, which is a good sign.

Here is a picture of him and Kailey sitting on the floor watching TV (notice he has on Daddy's shirt, he has had it on all day lol)



I just caught CJ playing My Nintendo DS Lite, he is playing Kailey's Dora Game:





Aint my baby smart...2 years old and can play a Nintendo LOL!

Well thats about all thats been going on around here I guess. Weather is nasty and rainy. Not a bit of snow lately. Just rain. I'll let ya know as soon as we get some snow though! Take care everyone and Happy Holidays!
