quick little update

i don't know why i seem to have writers block lately.  but i do.  for whatever reason {active children, perhaps??} i feel like time spent in front of the computer is majorly wasted.

and truthfully... it might be.

so, since sister just went down for a nap, and ethan is drawing, i have a moment.  but just a moment.

and fyi... we survived the storms here yesterday.  my heart goes out to the people affected.  the footage on the news last night was unreal.  tractor trailers flying through the air.

so here are a few photos...

sick day.  they don't look sick do they??  well... ethan had a fever, so we are home.  :)

some zoo action...

and the museum.  and for the record - both of my kids weren't nearly as enthusiastic as i had envisioned about the grossology exhibit.  i think they were too young :(  i mean, have you been?  did you see the creepy pig in the corner by the pinball machine?  what on earth did he have to do with the exhibit??  y i k e s

more later.  i swear.
