......I'm back! (For the time being anyway!)

It's been SO long since I blogged, I almost didn't even remember how.  :)  It seemed like the perfect time to do it since the kids and I are stuck on the couch right now.  I have had an awful headache all morning and Mr. G was send home sick from preschool after he threw up there.  So, now it's movies and snuggling.  Miss K seems just fine as she's eating everything in the house that's not nailed down....hopefully she doesn't get it too because she is a loaded cannon at the moment.  :)

New things in my life, you may ask?  It has been awhile since I've posted any updates.  A couple of things, work related.  I finally jumped in and became a Pampered Chef Consultant.  Sounds cheesy, but it was something that I always wanted to do!  (Plus, I wanted to be able to buy products and I didn't know anyone that sold them anymore!)  I have had one FtF show so far, have three catalog shows running, and have another couple FtF shows next month.  It's fun and a good way for me to get some girl time in every once in awhile.  Will I do this forever?  Probably not.  Am I enjoying it so far?  Yup, absolutely!

I also took on a blended class through Hawkeye Community College.  From April-June I'll be teaching a blended Oral Comm, half online and half face to face.  Sounds like a fun new challenge, esp. since Hawkeye uses a different system than I'm used to.  Also, a little extra money is a good thing.  :)

The kids are great...I cannot believe that they are going to be 3 and 5 in May!  Everyone said that once Kingsley turned 3 or so, I would be wanting another baby.  True to an extent...she is certainly more self-sufficient.  She's been potty trained for a few months now and that's been amazzzzzing.  No more diapers, yahoo!!  However, both kiddos are still sweet and innocent and cuddly, so I can still get my snuggles in with them.  :)  Plus, just about every one of my friends are pregnant right now, so I can probably get my baby fix as needed.  :)

I used to think that babies were a lot of work and worry.  It never crossed my mind that they were stuck to one place and once they started moving things would only become a bit more challenging.  Just this last Friday Grady shot himself through (yes, through) the finger with a brad nail during Daddy Day Care.  (Josh was putting up a piece of trim, Grady picked up the nail gun, Josh told him to put it down, in the process, it went off....)  We were incredibly lucky as it just went through a little bit of tissue, no nail, bone, tendons....yes, it could have been much worse.  No, I don't think he'll listen next time when we tell him that he could get hurt if he doesn't listen.  :)

ORANGE!  The bedroom back wall color is orange.  Not a very Roxanne color, huh??  I totally dig the orange but already have plans to go back to a cream/white/brown color scheme in the future.  (Yep, THAT seems more Roxanne!)

Weekend plans are supposed to include going and seeing Nick and Annie, but there is a snowstorm coming in tonight through tomorrow.  We'll have to see what that does to our travel plans.  Till next time, blog readers!  I'll try not to go so long!
