Fishing n Crabbing

Ed doesn't get to spend a lot of time with the kids, just having fun. It is really a rare occurrence. Every spare moment is spent working on our house. He has been looking forward to taking the kids crabbing for so long. I'm so glad he finally got to take them. They really enjoyed it. The first cast out (on the a Scooby do fishing pole)Ed caught a fish and the damn thing bit me. After that we only caught crabs. Cole may have had too much fun if thats possible but she has night terrors again last night. She screamed for hours. At least thats what if felt like to me.

I borrowed my nephews camera for the weekend. So I have pictures. Yay! You can check them out on my flickr page.

All I want for Christmas

Ah, I'm dreaming of a new camera. Maybe if I'm good Santa will bring me this Canon 50D. Canon just announced that they are coming out with this new camera in the fall. Just in time for the holidays. I think it shoots 6.3 frames per second. Ah, I'm in love!!!

My little charmer says the sweetest things

This morning while changing Moe he says "Wow my poopies green mommy just like your eyes!"

Feeling a little under the weather

We got a virus. A very nasty virus (windows antivirus 2008) on our computer. It took a long time to get rid of it. Me being (cheap) me. I didn't want to pay for anything. Norton wanted to charge me $99. So I disconnected my computer and used Ed for a short time until I could find a free malware removal software. This is the one I used. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/malware-removal/antivirus-2008 I scanned the computer a few times and then rescanned it with Norton. Now it's better than it's been in a long time.

We have been working like crazy on our house. Almost every thing we own is packed away right now. I finally have a kitchen sink again (since May 30). I just can't used it yet. The drain is not hooked up but it's getting there.

We did get all the siding up on the house. We had some problems with the trim coming in damaged or the wrong color. I think when the pilasters go on the front door it make a huge difference in the look if the house.

Right now I came down to the computer to find a template for window boxes. OK really I came down to clean up some of the broken concrete and the computer just called to me.

Keeping busy

We haven't done much, but work on our house. It's taking a little longer than normal when most of the helpers are only three. Moe and Cole put the railing together for our little porch. Oh, yeah they even put the temporary stairs together. They are really doing well at putting in the screws. They have had a lot of practice! Our whole house is sided except for the front. The siding for the front comes in on Friday. So we'll be back at it this weekend. Watch out Uncle Ray we are going to put them to work on your house too.
Happy Birthday Aunt Nancy!
