Random Tuesday

-- This blog is a work in progress today. I plan on taking the picture of the girls this afternoon and will hopefully have everything updated tonight. In case any of you are wondering, I know that I'm not Irish, but the girls are some percentage of Irish from Andy's side. So I decided to have the "I'm Irish" background for that reason.

-- I finally got my clothes dropped off for the consignment sale this weekend! I only did a few items just to see how it went. If it goes well, I'll probably consign some more for the winter/fall sale. I will have to remember to drop the clothes off when Eliana isn't looking. She cried over a couple of things even though they don't fit her anymore.

-- I still need to mail our state tax return today. We didn't want to pay $20 to have it done electronically so it's been sitting on my desk for the past couple of weeks. I finally made the copies this morning so I should be completely done by this afternoon! I'm glad I won't have to think about it again until next year!

-- I'm waiting for that warmer weather that was predicted this week. Where is it? It's cold and rainy here and I hate getting the girls, but especially Sarah, out in this mess.

-- It was Dr. Suess Day at Emily's school today. They were supposed to have a parade and I forgot to dress Emily in a red, blue or white shirt for their "Red Fish, Blue Fish" theme. In my defense, I only found out about it yesterday and I had 40 reports to type up last night. I'm hoping they let her walk in the parade anyway as she had a pink on which is a shade of red, right? She wanted to turn around once we got to the school to get it, but then she would have been tardy. Maybe I should have brought one up there...

-- I picked up the girls' swimsuits today in preparation for their swim lessons this afternoon. Eliana is really excited, but Emily is apprehensive. She is only doing this so that she can go to camp this summer. I'm just praying she doesn't scream and hold onto the side of the pool the entire time.
