Ry's 1st attempt at ice hockey

There is ice in Savannah...who'd a thunk'it!? Well, it won't be here forever...but, for the next 4 weeks Ryan will be skating it up w/the SuperGoose on his itty bitty Bauers! OMG, I want to just hang them from my rear view mirror! LOL So anyways, we all got up at the crack of dawn..to head down to the Civic Center. I can't even begin to express how badly I wanted to just turn the alarm off and sleep in. But, it's only 4 Sundays and the opportunity to skate on 'real' ice...so it's more than worth it!

Lambie making sure I get a morning workout in...

Kailee just 'chillen' Ahahah...Sissy kisses...Ewwww! Because it's only 4 weeks, most of the boys just wear their roller gear! He did SO well, especially considering his blades are pretty dull...so when we take Kailee to Jax this week, we are gonna swing into the ice center and get them sharpened!

Sweaty boy...adjusting his mouth guard!

Random sled w/a creepy Father Christmas Mannequin

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend...I can't believe Christmas is just around the corner! The kids and I got the tree put up and all decked out...pics will be up soon! Being around the ice today, brought back SO many memories...LOL Valco, Sue, Erika, Lil, Steph...boys, almost slicing my thumb off, we spent SO many hours on the ice...ahhhh, the good ole days! ;]

Keeping busy...(ETA)

...is key, to surviving deployments! Like 3 kids don't keep me busy enough, I some how manage to squeeze in things that I really love to do...like volunteering & test driving baby gear! LOL So...above is a pic from our local post paper, taken at the OH toy shop [so much fun, it was a great night]...and below is a link to my latest review @ intheknowmom.net! ENJOY!

Nest Quilted diaper bag review!

ETA: Not only was that pic in the post paper...apparently it was on the log in screen for AKO, which is checked by thousands of soldiers, thousands of times a day....which includes our neighbor [who spotted me] and my hubby who just had to take a pic of the screen! LOL

Storytime @ the *new* Library...

^artist rendition^

The new Southwest Chatham library has been open for a couple weeks now...and I kept hearing great things about it...but, we have been so busy with everything else that we haven't had an opportunity to check it out! So finally I got on their website and found story time for the next day at 10:30...PERFECT! The new library is nice & clean...lol it's only like 2 miles from our house...so in theory I could take my awesome new BOB and jog down there....ahahaha...YA right! But it sounds like a good idea...

The storytime room has great risers to lounge on and big open space to run around!

Listening to the stories...

Singing and dancing and listening worked up quite and appetite...so Lambie and I headed to Macaroni Grill for some yummy lunch!

Here are a couple random's from earlier this week!

Seriously, don't get too close...you might loose a finger.

She's so dainty, ya right...she's a pig!

[its all gone]

Awww...she's sharing! Even a kid scoop is a little much for Lambie!

They HAD to ride the train...LOL

[even Kailee wanted too]

This weekend should be LOTS of fun...it starts off w/Kailee's school field trip to the Jax Zoo [lucky her], picking out our Christmas tree and then Kids Christmas in City Market, Ryan starts ice hockey...etc! So busy, can't wait!

Wonder what these are for!?

We love delicious deliveries!Especially Edible Arrangements.

I'm a sucker for chocolate covered strawberries!Lambie is SUPER excitedAnd since they arrived while the big loves were at school...She was the first to taste the yumminess!

[kailee & ry got theirs later in the day] Thanks for the strawberries, Fred. They are delicious!
