Out of Commission --edited

Not much to say today, well actually I have a LOT to say, but Im not doing it tonight!

Last week we think our house might have been struck by lightning, if not that then some strange and strong power surge hit us. It completely fried our phone, like the ACTUAL phone wont even turn on, but the phone LINE is working fine. Since we had an "all in one cordless" set of 3 phones we have had NO house phone for over a week now (its been really peaceful around here in that regard). The lightning/surge also blew out our modem, so I got a new modem, and that apparently isnt the only problem, having man come out tomorrow to find out where/what the the rest of the damage is with the darn internet. Which BTW is why I havent posted any Florida pics, info, or videos. I am currently typing on Marcus' computer and dont want to load everything on here and then onto MY computer too. UGH! The lightning/surge also affect our DirecTV. We have 2 boxes and it only affected one......weird. And it only affected certain channels the others work perfectly......weirder! AND the channels that were left intact are Marcus' favorites.......weirdest! So the DirecTV man is coming out tomorrow as well.

In other news I have started my cleanse. I cant wait to tell you about it!

I am growing bigger and bigger, baby is kicking more and more and the girls are DYING to be able to feel the kicks. They are so sweet with my belly, showering it with kisses at random times during the day, and the baby is the first one to get a "good morning" every day. I can only imagine what it will be like once the baby arrives.

The girls have become MASTERS at playing by themselves (especially upstairs). It is so fabulous to have some minutes to myself during the day. However, there is a price to pay for such alone time, as in extraordinary messes, unwanted things being touched/played with, and water play on the hard wood.

I have been crazy busy the past couple of days. We have spent both of them at home, which has been quite nice considering all the time we have been away lately. I have done some serious cleaning, and feel like I havent even put a dent in what needs to be done!

Kaylee has become more and more independent, she is helpful most of the time when it comes to "chores", she will eat just about anything to get dessert oh how I LOVE a good eater, is FEARLESS when it comes to water/swimming, and there was one more thing I had in my brain I wanted to mention about her, but somehow my "pregnancy brain" got the best of me and I have forgotten. ***

Ainslee astonishes me daily with her speech (her sentences are growing into some serious conversations), her memory, her resourcefulness, like her sister is fearless when it comes to water/swimming (just wait til you see some of the videos), and her LOVE of smoothies even the disgusting ones! stay tuned for cleanse update for more info on that one


I said more than I wanted to......so good night to you all......have a HAPPY FRIDAY!


***I remembered......Kaylee slept in 7 different beds in during the 3 week times around our vacation, and her questions about the baby are becoming more and more interesting some of them are, "How did the baby get in your belly?" and my most favorite "How is the baby going to get out of your belly?" I have not answered either question honestly yet. Honestly I dont know how to answer those on a 4 year old level, especially the second one. I told her to ask Marcus and his response was "let's ask the doctor at mommys next appointment." I thought that was a pretty good answer, but that day is coming up really quickly and I know my elephant will never forget to ask the doctor her question.***
