April 19th:)

So far, it's been a pretty good day:) It so helps that I don't have to work today:) Well, yesterday, I worked 6:30-3, then came home & made pork chops & roasted baby red potatoes:) It was yummy!!! Even Jason & the kids loved it when they came home from camp:) The kids took their baths, Jason washed dishes, then the kids & I watched the ACM awards last night:) Since they weren't allowed to stay up until 11 p.m. on a school night, Lexie wanted me to record the rest of it for her:) She was so happy that Lady Antebellum won 2 awards (before she went to bed - I think they won another one or two after).
I ordered Lexie some new summer clothes from Justice (her fave clothing store). I got her an outfit, a necklace, a new duffel bag (for when we travel), 4 tank tops, & 8 pairs of shorts:) I had a coupon for 40% off entire order & some of it was already on sale:) When it comes in, I will have to take pics & post them so you can see all the super cute things:) I just hope they fit her alright. I went with a 12 since she's growing so much & I hope it's not too big - I know the tops will fit, but unsure about the bottoms - I will let ya know:)
Now I'm just waiting for the kids to come home - less than 2 hours from now. I'm also trying to get up the ambition to start cleaning out my office since we will be turning it into our new bathroom:) What a pain, though! I finally picked out paint for the living room, bathroom, hallway, new office (where the bathroom currently is) and our bedroom. We are drywalling in the livingroom, and one hallway, too:) We still need to get our lights for the kitchen - we can't seem to agree on them! Jason is going to make one whole wall in my new office bookshelves:) It's gonna be so cool:) We picked out floor for the bathroom - I gotta pick up the tile for the hall. We've got our new tub & toilet & bathroom sink:) We're also bringing the roof out over the porch & kitchen (to match the rest of the roof which is lower over the kitchen). We've got new front doors, too:) I can't wait!!! Our house is gonna look completely different:) We are planning to rip the carpet out of the livingroom, our bedroom, and Brett's room and go with laminate. Lexie wants hers pulled out, too. (Her's is pretty new, mind you, and beautiful purple!) She told me it's way too hard to set up her Polly Pockets on carpeting;) What a kid - I told her to find a hard surface to play on since we spent a couple hundred dollars on her carpet:( Grrr! Brett's, on the other hand, is a little older and not in as nice shape. Plus, with hi allergies, he's really not supposed to have carpeting anyway:(
The kids are almost all set for soccer this summer:) I signed them up last month:) Good thing, because their age division is all full already and they don't even start until the end of June!!! They have their new soccer balls & shoes. I just need to get them shin guards & socks:) At least the most expensive things are already taken care of:) Hooray for me:)
Now I just gotta get Lexie on the sign-up sheet for dance next fall:) Possibly skating, too, if I can fly it - she sure does like to watch the ice skating:) Oh, by the way, she hasn't broken any bones or severely hurt herself on her new roller blades:) Go, Lexie!!! She's also been very good about wearing her bike helmet when she rides down the road to her friends' houses:) No big crashes for Lexie this year:) Brett, on the other hand, took a big diggeer a couple weeks ago on his bike - he scraped his arms pretty good:(
I think that's all I got for now:) Later, guys:)
