Micheal left his window open in the basement and a mouse got in. It's probably been in the house for a couple of days, but I didn't see it until Sunday night. When I first saw it, I jumped up on the couch because I didn't know what it was at first, it was running so fast. It ran under our family room entertainment center. Jared tried to get it out with a stick and let it run ito a box, but when i flipped the box up to shut it, the mouse flung out and ran away. I had left the garage door open to let it out just in case it ran away, but we're not sure it got out.
Today we celebrated St. Patrick's Day. It was wierd to see a sea of green at Morgan's school, and along with everyone else, my girls and I never got pinched because we were wearing green too. Hope you enjoy our greeness.
It never fails. If i'm not watching Julianne for just one minute , she seems to get into some kind of trouble. Well, today it was the plastic bags I never seem to recycle. She also dumped out her cereal all over the floor.
This is what happens when you aren't watching your 19 month old. Julianne came into the room where I was and was covered in white powder. I followed the white powder trail she had left with her feet and it took me of course to the kitchen pantry. The whole box of cornstarch was dumped on the floor. Here are the pictures to prove it.
Things are starting to look a little more normal around the Newbold house. Jared is done working 15 hour days at odd hours and is back from his business trip to palm springs. Morgan no longer has lice. She's had it twice in the last two weeks. And Julianne is feeling better after a few days of high fevers. She wouldn't eat anything solid for a few days , if you can believe that, but now she has her appetite back. Here she is on top of a file box eating her apple.
Julianne has finally warmed up to Mike while he's been living at our house. She used to just cry everytime he looked at her. Now they sit next to each other on the couch and chill.
Jared has been working odd hours lately to get a project done at work. The day before Valentine's Day , he went to work at 3 pm abd came home at 6 am. I had no clue he had a surprise Valentine for me. I woke up to a table full of red roses, chocolates, and sprinkled heart confetti. For the girls there were some Valentines as well. He also gave me a topiary rose plant with miniature roses. I can't believe at times he can be so romantic and at others times a complete unromantic guy. Later that day, after he slept for 8 hours, we went to Cafe Rio.
