Well, yesterday goes down in history in our household as one of the craziest days ever! I really only had conversations with my SIL and my best friend, and they both had insane days too!! First off, my poor nephew (3) managed to get his head caught in a high-speed ceiling fan :-( He had to be taken to the ER for staples, so I took care of the rest of the kiddos, plus a little one they've been watching. The weather was very severe yesterday and I think that turned on the hyper button in the two youngest and they were bouncing off the walls and furniture (literally). Well, my SIL had dinner prepared already, so we enjoyed her yummy crock pot tamale pie ;-) She's a genius when it comes to cooking. While I was serving-up everyone's plates, Joshua managed to tip his chair back (while strapped into his booster seat) and land his noggin on some trim we had propped up on the wall to be used later in our bedroom. I'm thankful the trim was there to cushion his fall...the floor would've been much worse. While I quickly grabbed him to make sure he too hadn't split his head open, the kids were all voicing concerns for him and the tornado sirens went-off. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I ran to the TV with Joshua in my arms; thankfully the tornados weren't anywhere near us *whew* However, it was right by my parents house!! Well, my parents weren't home, but they were at a car dealership nearby getting a new car (since my dad totalled their other one). Later, my mom called and told me that the tornado was right over them!! Everyone at the dealership had to take cover inside the building. Thankfully the building is a really solid structure! Mom said she dove into the women's rest room and covered her head underneath a bench. She said all she could think of was not being here for me and Jenna when she arrives *sniff* I felt so loved, but I had to laugh because I can just see my mom huddled underneath a bench! *hehe*
Anyway...what a day! I'm glad it's over and I'm excited to go to my OB/GYN appointment today. I also have a NST which I'm anxious to have done. I'm a little worried because I really didn't feel Jenna move yesterday afternoon/evening. I think she was stressed right along with me.

As soon as the sirens went of I had marty try to call you. I was afraid the kids might be freaking out and i thought he might be able to calm them down or something. but he couldn't get his phone to work for a little bit.
as far as the organizing thing. remember that it took me 10 years to get to that point. Only the last 2 years have I been really careful on the budget and making menus and such. I can make you a book anytime you want.
