I can't wait any longer....

This is what I've had sitting on my desk for over a week.

I purposely put some papers over it so I wouldn't see it. WHY??? Because I know once I start this book (all the twilight fans are gasping right now that I haven't read it yet) nothing else will get done. Today the papers shifted and I saw it.....and it was beckoning to me.....and I tried to resist.....But couldn't.

So I am apologizing in advance to my husband for the soon to be messy house, lack of conversation, and the upcoming "Edward" obsession.

It can't be helped. I have to start reading it right NOW! See ya in a couple of days!

Wii Are Off Track!

My girls have been off track for a week now. I admit that sometimes I dread them being off track. I get tired of the bickering and the complaining of being bored and having nothing to do. I must say however, that has not been the case this time. Here is what my girls have been doing lately:

I know what you are thinking, "Wow, what great kids!" Yes, my kids have been reading for hours each day, but rest assured they have ulterior motives. In order to play Wii they must earn it. So for every hour they read they will get 1/2 hour to play Wii. So literally they read for an hour, then play Wii for 1/2 hour and then repeat the cycle. They also can earn time by doing their off track homework packets and by having a good attitude (especially when I ask them to do something for me). I must say that they have really been quite delightful! I have been milking it for all it's worth too!

More Pictures of Lily

I love this picture of Emily holding Lily while she is reading. They are never too young to start!

In case you need a "Lily Fix" here are some photos from the last couple days.
