Sunday........

I'm getting back on the black and gold bandwagon! Just for a sec. though. Just wanted to let everyone know (cause I know some of you could care less about the Superbowl) you should be watching the Pittsburgh Steelers win the Superbowl Sunday evening! Rich was talking to Olivia about some sport and the team's name and she simply put it, "Dad, we don't like any other team except for the Steelers, that is the only team we like,mom said!" I couldn't have said it any better and couldn't have been more proud of her!

We have been sick here lately, all of us except for Rich. Now before Logan I was the only one that never got sick. I am finally getting better and feeling like I can be a productive part of society again. I was feeling a lot like the flu again and feeling like someone had hit me with a truck. Luckily this year I got the flu mist and cannot praise it more! I'm starting to fret January, it seems to bring lots of illness inside this house, so next year i will know what to expect after Christmas!

As I was going to sit down and write on Wed. I realized all i could write about was the heavy snow falling outside my window again, which had given my brain a full white out. It proved itself to be a good one, giving Olivia her first 2 days off of school this year. My head has been rattled from her talking non-stop in my ear for two full days. I mean seriously, she never shuts up! I had a nickname from one of my dad's friend's when I was little which seemed to refer to the fact that I indeed like to talk also. Well you know how your parents are always sure to tell you that's what you get when you have children, PAYBACKS! I have gotten my payback, in more ways than one.

I had a crafty idea and actually followed up on it. I needed a "car" pillow for Logan so when we travel his head isn't always somewhere where it looks impossible it could hold that position. When I priced them I was shocked to say the least how much these little things cost. So I got the brain storm that if you can "no sew" everything else, why not a car pillow. So I did make one and actually sold one on ebay. I need to make more. I had some material left and made Logan a pillow. See I do have a creative side to me, as long as it doesn't include knitting needles and a sewing machine!!

Ok, I'm off to read some more of my book while Logan is sleeping. I'm back into my Harry Potter series. Realizing I still had 6 & 7 to read and have no idea how it ends. Got done reading Multiple Blessings by Jon & Kate.....little disappointing. Great read though, I could relate to Kate on some levels of being in the hospital and bored out of my mind and the NICU, so that was neat.....See you all Monday and have a Great Black & Gold Sunday............
