Lost but not Forgotten

You can't tell me she's not a Born Rebarchik Bandowzewski Olinger Chucka (uh oh, I'm forgetting names here...).



Found some cute pictures that were shuffled to the end of my "December" photo files. Could've sworn they were posted...but doesn't look like it.

Quinn is in Eagle Lake this weekend. Mike and I had forgotten how EASY one kid is to take care of on a daily basis.

Yesterday Vince had his crabby moments at home, but overall EASY day. We got 2 rooms pretty much cleaned top to bottom (windows, edges with vacuum cleaner, fans, sheets, etc), spent an hour at a furniture store with NO whining (with the exception of me..ha ha), had lunch in virtual silence, and then dropped off the kiddo with a new sitter.

Apparently almost 5 months is a "stranger danger" stage! Vince had a rough night with a new sitter in Lakeville; but the both survived!!! Not sure that Vince and Katie will cross paths soon, but thanks a ton Katie! I had my work holiday party (happy Valentine's Day, in the words of our administrator) in Farmington and it was nice to have yet another meal in virtual silence (well, I suppose I won't count the text messages and phone calls "he's still crying, now what?").

Apparently Quinn was feeling his "missing Mommy"-ness as she was also repetitively asking for me yesterday!! Monday night can't come too soon for her, but we know she's in GREAT hands in Eagle Lake. Hopefully she got or will get some cousin time in with Briley!

Today, we're off to watch super bowl with friends. I have a hopefully will be delicious Leinenkugel's Wisconsin Cheese Soup cooking to take along. Mike's getting the driveway cleared of the yet again 1" of snow. And we're soon to be off to PURCHASE furniture (we're furnishing our front room that was virtually furniture-less folks that have visited). And then the SUPER BOWL! Go Packers!
