This week in the Nelson Household . . . . .

I learned
***I love freckles. Haley now has a cute little array of freckles across her nose. I think they are to cute! I wish my camera was good enough to catch them.

***Dropping a 35 pound weight on your toe REALLY HURTS! May cause swelling and bruising--I don't recommend this to anyone!

***Little boys are so innocent. Hunter saw a lady (a very well endowed one) on TV in a skimpy swimsuit that was designed in Red, White, and Blue--he automatically was excited to see Wonder Woman.

***Haley knows me well. She was asking me what I wanted for my birthday and I said I like things for the house so she said "a cleaning machine"--Yes I would love a maid for my birthday!

***I've missed being available. I got rid of my cell phone when Haley was born and didn't think I missed it that much, but I got a new one this week and really enjoy being available again.

***I still get homesick. Yes I know I'm old enough and have been away from home long enough, but I still get homesick. I'm feeling the need to head home for a few days and let Mom take care of me or at least just visit for a day. It doesn't help that EVERY DAY my kids ask when we're going to Panguitch again. They love their Grandma and PaPa.

***Carpooling is the greatest! I love only having to drive kids to Pre-school once a week, but I do miss not being there when she first comes out of class excited to show me what she did.

***Little girls are hilarious! Haley's friends came over after pre-school for lunch and play. First thing they did when they got to our house was put on a little concert and sing the Days of the Week Song to Michael. Then came princess clothes and pretend food. They were so fun to watch play! Oh I remember being a little girl!

***Taking 5 days off from the gym is a big mistake! I went back today and it was like starting all over again. Hence the weight falling on my toe! I'm tired, sore, and not to excited to go back.
