Can I just say that Avatar was good. The graphics were unreal. I don't know if I can watch another movie or show again. That was amazing... The story line... meh the usual... But I am a sucker for romantic action movies ;) well anything romantic with the PROPER (read: happy) endings!
However when I stood up to go call Daddy and use the restroom and noticed my pants were wet... well that's wasn't the highlight of the night... It was funny when without realizing it I stick my fingers in it and then sniff them... The woman behind us started cracking up laughing... And then I panicked "I have kids" I said... and she laughs harder and says "Oh I know, I could tell... So do I and that's the first thing we all do... you gotta smell it to determine just how bad it really is!"
So I head out and figure I might as well save some other poor soul the same fate (luckily my pants were the type that dried quickly ;) ) and I mentioned it to the theater staff. Then I finished the couple things I had to do and headed back in.
But before I made it too the door I was stopped by a staff member whom apologized profusely and gave me a free pass! Score! Do a good deed and the kharma comes back! I was just happy noone else would have to sit there.

technology wiz!
Somehow B has become a technology wiz. Today she figured out how to turn on the living room tv, turn on the blueberry player, get it to the right imput, and start her video. All by herself.
The other day I found an old iPod shuffle that Daddy got for a Christmas present one year and we could never get to work. So I pulled it out and tried it again after restoring all the settings... And it worked.
So the girls now share their own iPod! It is filled with the likes of Backyardigans, Barbie, The Wiggles, Barney and Disney favorites.
And that same day B had been playing a matching game on my iPhone. She then got out of that and found a way to call her Grammie and reprogram some of my other phone numbers and functions.
They learn so young!

A perfect post for the blog. And a perfect reminder to just live life!
What Did I Do Today?
Author Unknown
What did I do today?
Today I left some dishes dirty
The bed got made around 3:30
The diapers soaked a little longer
The odor grew a little stronger
The crumbs I spilled the day before,
Are staring at me from the floor
The fingerprints there on the wall
Will likely be there still next fall
The dirty streaks on the windowpanes
Will still be there the next time it rains
Shame on you, you sit and say,
Just what did you do today?
I held a baby till she slept
I held a toddler while he wept
I played a game of hide and seek
I squeezed a toy so it would squeak
I pulled a wagon, sang a song
Taught a child right from wrong
What did I do this whole way through?
Not much that shows, I guess that's true
Unless you think that what I've done,
Might be important to someone
With deep blue eyes and soft dark hair,
If that is true... I've done my share.

Mmm Fall off the bone, crispy, mouthwatering delicious ribs.That was dinner tonight.
I mixed a dry rub of brown sugar, garlic, salt and pepper and paprika and rubbed it on the night before.
Then this afternoon put the ribs in a low temperature oven with a can of cold coke poured over top.
After they slow roasted for a few hours I pulled out our new indoor grill and put it up high and put the ribs on to crisp up with some yummy honey garlic BBQ sauce! Mmmm after a couple minutes on both side they were crisp and mouthwatering and fell completely off the bone!
B also had her swimming lessons today! 4th class of Salamander and she blew bubbles and did assisted floats and got to play in PFD's and a fun foam boat! She is getting more comfortable and seems to really love her swimming lessons!
C also likes going down slides but she likes to go backwards on her tummy ;)
And mommy also got to take B down the big twisty scarey red slide!
The rest of the time C wanted to sit in the swing and be pushed. It was a no nap day and she was TIRED!

And park day today! B even went down new slides today all by herself! She is gaining much more confidence! It is great to see!
