Banned Blogger

Some genius at the Southern Union Company Information Technology department has deemed blogger "illegal or questionable" content. What that means for me...I can no longer post blogs from work, which will definately cut down even more on the freqency of posts.

Also, I can't view any one else's pictures, or read comments or post a comment. All I can see is the text. I will still enjoy reading everyone's posts to find out what they have been up to, but won't get to enjoy the full benefit.

In other news...Molly turned 3 on Sunday! Had the fancy Chuck E Cheese party and came home with the pukes. I guess I can't outright blame CEC, but it sure makes me feel better.

Something about 3rd birthdays and our kiddos. Jack got a tv dropped on his head and molly couldn't stop throwing up. I can only imagine what trouble they will get into for their 21st.

I don't know what life would be like with out my prince and princess. It is hard to watch them get so independent, but I love being able to share in it.

the better half is saying that somehow I have fallen into the jackpot this week. tomorrow night some of us from work are being treated to a meal at Del Frisco's steak house since our company basically gave us the finger for working all the hours on our filing project. my boss is taking us out to say thanks for putting in the time and effort. then tomorrow it has been discussed among a few (my boss included) about sneaking out to the rangers for the business man's special - we will see if we pull that off. and then this weekend it is off to marble falls to hang with some old high school friends on the lake and catch up. should be a good time and hopefully I will not come back toasted like a lobster.

now I have to go figure out who I have to get fired to get blogger back...

Quick Update

The better half got on to me for not having a post...so here is a quick update from last time I took some time to write.

Took a trip of a lifetime to Disneyworld...thanks parentals! I couldn't imagine how much I would enjoy it and since I came home I have been trying to figure out how I can get back. (Kind of like "Lost" and the island, except I enjoy it and I know where it is). For a detailed update check the better half's blog. She is doing a daily recap.

Once back home it feels like it has been go go go. Molly ended up falling off the monkey bars and breaking her arm. For the last week she has been figuring out every precarious position to get in to make us parents think she is going to break it completely off.

Jack has gotten over his fear of the water. Thanks to some deft dunking by good old dad at Disney and the weekend back home. As long as you make dunking fun...learning to swim follows. Actually he has gone to swim lessons at TCU with is cousins and they have really worked to get him over his fears. After the first day of swim lessons as soon as I got home he wanted to go back to the pool to show me what he could do, and it was amazing the transformation!

There have been birthday parties and play dates that the better half has arranged but we did get to go see the Indiana Jones movie together which was nice. Tomorrow taking the kids to the Nasher with Myles and Lisa and letting them stay over with them. Right now Jack is fired up...Molly not so much so it may be father/daughter date Sat night. Jodi and Cathie will be heading to the opera on student tickets.

And for those of you who wonder why I don't eat tomatoes...here is one reason in my favor.
