    I'm nervous, but somewhat looking forward to, my sleep study tonight. Hopefully I'll find out what's wrong. I think it's going to come out that I grind my teeth at night. Which probably means I'll have to wear something in my mouth too. :(

    Here's a good quote for "Deliberative": Respect the fact that this person may be private. Unless invited, do not push to become too familiar with her too quickly. And by the same token, don't take it personally if she keeps you at arm's length.

    So Jordan, don't take it personally that I "unfriended" you on Facebook.

    Not really, but a co-worker mentioned an old co-worker having a TGIM mug. I thought that was funny.

    I missed out on brown stripped shirt Monday at work. I didn't remember. And my alert didn't go off until I was already on my into work. Oh well. Maybe next week.

    Do you ever have those moments when your child seems to have grown months worth overnight? I swear Joel grew a ton last night. Which makes me ask, "Dee, what did you do to my baby?!"

    Joel, you're 2 years, 3 months and 23 days old, and, oh my, you are the cutest thing ever. I love your energy, your politeness, your playfulness. I love you so much. I wish I could freeze time right now because I don't want you to grow up. I think I'm scared that I won't remember these times, so if you stayed this age then I won't ever forget.

    Do you know you like to take strange things with you to bed? You had a bucket last month you took to bed for a few days. This week you took two toy cars. And a piece of wrapping paper. And books. Whatever you've been playing with or seem to enjoy that day.

    I never remember Alyssa going to get a diaper and then laying down nicely so I could change her.

    Some things I love about you:
    I gave you a wipe in the car to wash off your sticky hands. And you threw a fit when I dropped it bringing you into the house. But luckily we had another inside. You're so silly.

    The phrases you know can put me in stitches. "I didn't do it" or "Lie down!" or the way you say "Olivia".

    And my fears of having a boy are fading as I watch you play with cars. Hopefully the love of cars will be something we can share someday.

    The way you "help me up" by lifting my head when I'm lying down.

    The way you just hang out in your crib for awhile after waking up instead of wanting out immediately.

    The way you'll not speak a word at Grandma and Grandad's, but will start yappin' away once we're alone in the car.

    The hugs you give me.

    The hugs you give Lexi. The caring of Lexi when she is injured.

    How you're starting to love reading books.

    I love to tossel (sp?) your hair.

    Little big guy, I love you.

    I found an article that helped me fix my spell checking at work. I'm posting it here so I can reference it later.

    Go to start, and the click on run.
    On the window that opens type regedit and click OK
    This will open the Registry Editor, in here you want to:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Shared Tools/Proofing Tools/1.0

    At this location you want to right click on the override folder and delete.
    Click yes when the system ask you if you want to delete the key and all subkeys.

    Open word and spell checker should work.

    I just got a funny phone call from my wife:
    Her: can you look up to see if there's a Bank of the West branch by your parents?
    Me: Sure.
    (time spent looking for it)
    Me: There's one on 180th and Center.
    Her: Oh! I see it!

    :rolleyes:

    Shhh. Don't tell Christi, but I'm drunk! Bret came over and we drank and talked and I had a wonderful time, but feel a little guilty that she had to put the kids to bed. And evidently said some not-nice things to her. I feel really bad because I didn't mean to!
