Jonathan's new favorite form of exercise...and he is really good. He jumps really high and just smiles the whole time!

...in our bedroom. My in-laws were told by their interior decorator that a room always looks bigger if you are facing the bed when you walk into the room. We are trying it out in our bedroom and it doesn't look too bad (with the new paint, curtains, and decor). I even gave my couch and love seat a small makeover this past month and tried them at a new angle in the middle of the living room. Amazing how "new" the room feels!

After a few emails with this video, I thought I would share it. The kids really enjoyed it :0)

If there is one fear I really have as an adult it is clearly passing a truck driver on the interstate. I literally hold my breathe as I speed pass them each time. My husband will agree that it is a little ridiculous how much I am afraid of them. The funny thing is I am not alone in my craziness...we must have had some freak accident almost happen as a child because my younger sister is exactly the same way. When we are together we practically scare everyone else in the car as we chant "go go go" 80 MPH in the fast lane around them, leaning toward the driver window. Yes, we are related to three truck drivers and have actually been inside numerous truck cabs before, you would never guess that though driving with us in a car. There are many converations you can have with a truck driver as you drive besides "go go go." When we were younger, we would do the typical fun thing all children do and pretend to pull the large string hanging by our window in order to hear them ...

The funny lady who wrote the E-Bay ad I shared a couple days ago has a blog . It is pretty funny too so I wanted to share it with you. I am going to become a daily reader of this one and thought many of you with multiple children could totally relate.
