So I went ahead and drove 30 min away and purchased this for Gavin for an early birthday present. Of course his sister likes it more than he does.

Yes, Laura is almost 1! That makes me so happy, and so sad, all at once. My last baby is growing up. I can’t believe it has been that long! It will be one year on March 8th. It just felt like we just came home from the hospital. This year has gone so fast! Maybe since we are getting older, and since we have two children, that we don’t have time to sit and think about time anymore, it just flies right past us. I found a place to get invitations for her birthday bash, they also carry communion invitations! I am not sure where or when we will have her small birthday bash, since we will be in the process of moving that week. Maybe we will have it at the new place once we are settled in.

    So yesterday we went to a birthday party, there was a clown there. Gavin loved it, but I personally think the clown was crazy. She would sing real loud, and look at the adults all crazy. Maybe next year we will get Gavin a clown or a magician for his birthday, I think he would enjoy it.

On another note, it is time to start saving for Christmas. I hate the financial burden it places on us, but Christmas is still a great time of year. This year we have two children to buy for, which really will not be that much more. I think for Laura we will get her the Laugh and Learn Kitchen, and maybe a few other small things. For Gavin we were thinking about getting him a Playstation 2 to replace his old Playstation 1. He needs something new to play with, he seems tired of all of his old games. I am excited to decorate and put up the tree with Gavin this year, he really enjoyed it last year.

We have decided to keep Gavin home from school today. First we were going to keep him out a few days because they sent home a letter Friday stating that MRSA (staph infection) had been confirmed in his school. But,he was sick all last night, and doesn’t seem any better this morning. About the whole staph infection, I wish the school board would just have a better plan of action. Just telling us that they are taking the steps to clean better isn’t enough. I want a detailed plan of action, and the name of the company that will be going in there and sanitizing the place. My children are just too precious to come into contact with that due to lack of sanitary measures on the schools part. I might be a germ freak, but that is better than being completely nasty. Lol!
