I managed to survive the week Warren and the kids were away. Got lots of Christmas shopping done in Moncton. The kids have both had the flu. They've thrown up in their beds, our bed, the van, nowhere is sacred! Tonight is the Survivor finale and I have play rehearsal. It just started to snow so if it keeps up I won't be going. The tree is up. The kids helped me decorate, kinda stressful at times. Brooke repeats every thing we say now. She's still not interested in potty training. She just says, "No tanks mommy" She talks all about her cousins, Hailey and Kelsey. Lauryn is busy with preschool-getting ready for her Christmas concert-she is Mary. Warren and Brooke just put up the snowmen in the front yard. Looking forward to having some time off around Christmas.
