Wonderful Saturday at Home...

Today is the first Saturday we've been "at home" in a long time without "to do's" and running all over the place - it has been really nice. Yesterday was pay day so that always makes for a better weekend. Today Paul worked on his pond and is drumming up stuff for his pond maintenance side business. He's helping an older couple in Raleigh keep their pond clean and maintaned. He needs to add a UV light, chemicals and fix a few things, hopefully will make a profit. Paul's pond is coming together FINALLY...I'll post pictures soon. The only part left is the waterfall and pump. I have been around the house playing with Jacob and doing laundry, dishes, sweeping all the fun and exciting Mom stuff like that. Jacob and I slept in today till 11:15am, so nice! Paul got up bright and early to hit Lowes Home Improvement and to go to Raleigh for pond adventures. He must really love this project. Tonight we are going out with the Ramsey's to Lone Star to celebrate Jamie's graduation today. We are taking Jacob with us, hopefully he'll behave and not have crying fits and 2 year old meltdowns like he did last night in the Bonsai restaurant. I was about 5 seconds away from calling my Mom to just take him away and babysit him while we ate and collected our wits. I don't even remember eating. Such is the life of a parent though, right? So anyway, after going to Lone Star - we plan to come home and chill and watch Couples Retreat, finally found it available in the Red Box at Walgreens, I've been trying to get it for months now. We also want to see Avatar and Sherlock Holmes. Maybe next weekend. =) It's the little things that excite us these days, LOL!!! Enjoy the weather, we will be!

New Web Address

Well we changed our blog to the new tag line "Wise Family Online"...I know, very original. I have high hopes of keeping up with this "new" blog, my friends have inspired me to blog more often and let everyone know what we're up to, even though at times it's not all that exciting - sometimes it's just a good catch up tool to see what we're up to and how life is going with a little one and all our adventures!

I am very happy and relieved to have given some of our baby stuff to Kari to borrow for her baby boy. It saves us space while giving her useful items for her baby boy. I'm sure I have found even more stuff to give to her. We may use them again, but not for a while yet...give us a few years.

Jacob is still sick - hoping for a better day tomorrow. He isn't eating much and feels really bad, but I think the fever may be gone, thank goodness!!! I'll take any small steps in the right direction.

Well Jacob is in the bathtub and Daddy is batheing him so I better go and do the lotioning and teeth brushing (my nightly role)....so I will blog more later.
