Today is Thursday, right?

One thing about being a SAHM, I never know what day it is or the date. I'm constatly checking a calendar for the date and I have to think back on the week to figure out the day. Not that I'm complaining or anything. After working at the clinic for 6 years and writing the date on 50 million charts a day and counting down the days to Saturday, I feel a little out of touch with the real world. I'm sure once school starts for Kaelin, I'll look back a miss these clueless days.

Things are putting along around here. We have a to do list that's about a mile long and I don't see us checking anything off it any time soon. Let's see, to name a few things, we need to: finish staining the deck, finish the playhouse, get the office/game room organized and unpacked (including the closet), list the stuff Mike wants to sell on ebay, clean out the closet in the sewing/music room, empty out Kaelin's closet and pack away the clothes she's outgrown so I can actually use the bottom part of her closet, pack away toys she's outgrown including various bouncy seats and play mats, revamp the file cabinet and actually file away paid bills and paperwork to the house and car, finish hanging things on the wall in the living room, reorganize the kitchen cabinets so they are more user friendly, etc. They are all a weekend project but it seems like we have no free weekends.

Kaelin is continuing to amaze me every day. Her vocabulary is insanely huge and she carries on full conversations. Since Carissa has been here 3 days a week this summer, she has picked up even more things. She has a huge crush on our neighbor's little boy, Taylor. He is 7 and such a cutie. He comes over and rides his bike and colors with chalk with Kaelin. Last night he came in and played some video games while we finished up dinner. Kaelin was just smitten with him! Then he took her and Mike over to his house to jump on his trampoline. She had a blast! She kept calling it a trampolina, and was correcting us when we would say trampoline. After I got her to bed, she woke up and was asking for Taylor when I went in her room. So sweet!

The girls are watching Dragon Tales while I putz on the computer. I guess I should get moving before they get too bored.

Oh, I forgot to mention, Kaelin threw my cell phone in the pool yesterday. I saw her grab it and started yelling at her to put it down but she got to the pool before I got to her. I took it apart and let it dry and it seems to be working ok today even though I can still see water in the screen. I am eligible for an upgrade so I should just go to AT&T and get whatever free upgrade they have available. I was ready for a new phone anyways, but still!
