Nice Start to 2013

Well, the days sure are hurrying by in 2013. On Monday, Rob went back to work. The kids and I just kind of hung out. We cleaned the house up a bit. Watched some movies. Wrote some thank you notes. Mom and Dad came over for a celebratory dinner. Neither of them are really 100% better from their colds. We had a nice dinner together and started to watch the Nancy Drew movie until Ellie started getting a bit scared and asked to finish it later. We did a countdown to 10PM instead of midnight because pretty much no one (except me) had plans to see the clock turn.
On new years day, Ellie and I ran to a couple of thrift stores. They were all running at least 50% off sales. I told Ellie we were only shopping for us...turned out we were only shopping for her. We were able to find her a couple shirts/sweatshirts, pants and a very cute purse from the Mary Poppins musical. The big score was a pair of black knee boots, which she said were very fashionable. We came home and we played all day...Legos, wii, dance marathon, cars, games. We had leftovers for dinner and finished watching Nancy Drew.
Today, Rob was back to work again. The kids and I began the day at Jump Zone and they jumped until they had no more energy. We were going to see a movie at the theater but Nick did something to his knee jumping and we headed home instead. We finished our thank you notes and Ellie finished her reading/math charts for school. We started Nick's snowman project for school. He wanted to do a pattern of snowballs and pompoms - the paper had already ripped because of the weight on the crap glued to it. We got dinner from Dengeo's and Skyped with the family in Arizona. The kids had baths and then we got them into bed.
Busy next few days ahead. I am looking forward to Monday and getting back to normal. Visualizing my healthy and continually healing body and the new normal, Tree
