Wow, Friday was a crazy day for both of us. Libby had to take Maddi to an eye appointment, since at her kindergarten screening they said she might need glasses. She does indeed need glasses, which she got to pick out today. Stay tuned for pictures soon!

I was busy planning my trip to Minneapolis, inside of which I also planned a last minute trip to Las Vegas. Libby is going to keep all 3 of my kids while I go to a Wheel of Fortune audition in Vegas. I went to a Wheel Mobile event about a month ago - I didn't get up on stage, but I filled out a form, and I got chosen for the 'final' auditions. I don't know how many people will be there, or for how many slots, but being the huge WOF fan that I am, everyone seems to think I should not pass the opportunity up and have the 'what-ifs' hanging over my head. So I leave Wednesday evening, have the audition Thursday morning, and fly home Friday morning.

What a roller coaster - I'm anxious and excited about the game show, psyched to see Dan, and nervous about leaving my babies, especially since I've just been away from the boys and have never left Sera before. But they all love their Auntie Libby, and I'm sure the time will fly for everyone.

The kids and I made it to Libby's around 6 last night. The kids are getting along really well. The boys are getting a little mixed up about all the aunties... sometimes they call libby auntie pam or auntie tracy, so we correct them, so they just started calling her "Maddi Mae's Mom".



Last night we had a jam session with Ryan's Guitar Hero World Tour. The kids are grooving to No Doubt's "Spiderweb" - which Noah and Xander are fittingly dressed for. I shall let the video say the rest...

Yesterday I was watching West Wing, my new lazy pleasure, I there was an episode with some flashbacks. I realized that our show needs some flashbacks, to better explain where our show came from and to set up where its going.

Lets set the scene "saved by the bell" style, with a pink cloudy outline around the screen, and a little dooodle doooodle do,

Meghan and I were on the phone talking when I mentioned to her that Logan (who at the time was 4 months old) was in the jumpy jump, and having so much fun. Meghan asked me, isnt he too little for that? no of course not he loves it jumpy jumpy jumpy, Meghan then asked me well doesnt he roll around? Well he spins around but I wouldn't say rolls. Meghan so confused then asked me well does Maddi go in with him? No she is too BIG duh! Finally after we realized that we are BOTH confused, I further explained that he was in jumperoo that sits on the floor. Meghan then tried to explain to me what she thought I meant however couldnt because she was laughing so hard she couldnt get a word out. When she was finally got out that she thought that I was talking about the bounce house that my mom had given me. All I could think was does she really think I would put my 4 month old baby in a bounce house - well maybe - But I didnt!
Dooodle dooodle do - the pink cloud fades

I hope you enjoyed this flash back into our lives. Have a great day!

So today Logan and I did lots of errands, nothing too exciting, sorry the blog has been a little off course this week, it's hard for me to be with out Meghan, even though we have been talking online it's not the same as being able to call her whenever I want. Also with Maddi at grandma's there really isnt much to report other then Logan is so very handsome!

Have a great weekend, and I will be back on Monday with fun stories from the weekend, and Meghan's adventures from Paris (Pair-rie)!

Here is a little excerpt from Meghan's adventure

"Today we got up at 730 and were out the door by 9. We walked to Notre Dame, took us about 30 minutes to get there, but we took some pictures along the way, it wasn't far at all and we got to cross the Seine.

Notre Dame was AMAZING! We got an audio tour player that explained stuff in English, which was very helpful. During the tour, we got to go into the 'Treasury' which holds many of the Cathedral's artifacts. The highlights of which were two reliquaries that hold actual pieces of Jesus' cross and one that holds what remains of his crown of thorns. After we toured the cathedral, we went down into the crypt museum, which we thought would be 'cryptier' but was more an archaeological history of what was on the island in the early AD centuries, when the romans were there, its so cool what people built back then without cranes and backhoes."

A little side note to Ryan and Mike, see they did just fine back then without a backhoe!!!

Hello All!! Today I went to my friend Susie's house we had a great time, apparently though Meghan had much more fun at her friend Mona's house, Mona Lisa that is, I am so very jealous, here is a bit of her update from today:

"It took us about 15 minutes to walk to the Louvre - which is HUGE. I mean, it's a castle, so I guess that's to be expected, but wow! (it was built in the 12th century, and the french royalty lived there until the 1700s when Louis XIV moved the court to the country and built Versailles). We saw alot of the Museum, including the Mona Lisa, which I had heard was small, but I was still surprised. and yes, the eyes do follow you."

Other then that, although I am not sure we can top a trip to the Louvre (which I am pretty sure is pronounced looovra) Grandma is having a great time with her grandchildren, since she has the biggest number according to "just Joey" she is in charge, Maddi clearly disagrees, she is after all the "Maddi Mae"! Enjoy Meghan's pictures from "across the pond"!
