Insomnia

It's been almost 2 weeks since I had major surgery.

And with the exception of 3 of those nights, where I actually was able to get to sleep quickly,

I have had the worst case of

INSOMNIA!!!

It stinks for someone who likes her sleep as much as I do

to NOT be able to even get to sleep.

See that time at the bottom of this post?

Yep, that's what time it really was written and posted.

Any suggestions on how to break this trend would be greatly appreciated!

I really want a good night's sleep.

My Attempt at Cupcake Decorating

So, I already blogged about Christian's birthday this year.

Did I mention that we had a SuperHero Party?

We had everything from Princesses to SuperMario to

the more traditional Spiderman and Superman.

This is my attempt at SuperHero cupcakes...

It's suppose to look like Spiderman sitting on top of a slung web.

How'd I do?

Did I also mention that I made/decorated 24 of these things?

I have found over the years that cupcakes get eaten a whole lot faster

at our house than the traditional cake does.

Why is that??

PS: Thanks for the pictures, Rachel.

I'm going to have to look at your camera downloads a lot more often.

Our Lego Creator

Russell is always building new things with his Legos.

He has to be reminded on Sundays to get ready for church first.

Then he can play with the Legos until it's time to leave.

He used to say he wanted to be a Lego Creator(Designer) when he grew up.

Then Daddy told him that he could be more like an Engineer.

And build and create things that way.

That makes his Daddy proud.

This is Russell's Lego Rock Band.

Now if we can just get him to pick UP the Legos when he

gets done with his "designing".
