can ya hear me now?

I discovered my poor Haley is deaf in her right ear. We were listening to my mp3 player and she said she wanted to listen to "iron man" song. (I know , completely out of character for girly princess haley to listen to Black Sabbath right?) So i put up on headphone to her right ear and she said she couldn't hear it.. I turn up the volume.... still nothing. Then i put it up to her left ear and she named the song. We tried this several times with different song and still the same outcome. Crazy right? I know its not really a big deal but it still kinda worries me. We got an app, coming up and we will see what the verdict is.

we've been discovered

Twas the night before Christmas...... we put cinnamon rolls out for Santa(didn't have the ingredients for cookies) and a beautiful card that Haley made for Santa. She was so happy to see Santa got it and ate the rolls. About two weeks later i was going some cleaning. I was going through the stack of junk on top of my entertainment center and didn't even realize the lovely picture for Santa was in the mix. Haley being Haley started going through it and found it. Now i didn't even realize because she doodles so much and they all look really similar but Haley sure knew. She gasped and came running at me with the picture. "mommy Santa forgot it!!!" I was doing everything i could not to crack up laughing. I told her he must have been so busy with presents that he forgot it. I told her i would give him a call and ask him to come get it while the girls slept in there big girl beds. So we left it on the fire place again. We put an elf's hat there in place of the picture and when she woke up she saw the hat. "MOMMY.. the elf came and forgot his hat!!" I told her I'm sure the elf had many more hats and she could keep it. I could tell that her mind was just-a-rolling. "how magical mommy" was all she said to that.

a successful night

Maddy slept in her big girl bed last night. After reading a certain blog **Ahem... carrie!** i was inspired to get my two year old in her big girl bed. At first i was really afraid that it would be a huge brawl but she only got up a few times. She fell and got hurt while trying to bug haley and after that she stayed put. They were asleep by 8:00 from the normal 9:45 so thats great. Jason and i didnt even know what to do with ourselves. Normally we are down for the count by the time we get the kids to bed. So all in all it was a successful night and i hope most nights go this way.

HOOKED

On twilight. I started reading in last night and i cant put it down. I thought i would see what all the talk was about and i see why. I cant wait to see the movie! Normally this isnt my kind of read but maybe thats because i never think outside the box.
