I'd love to give ya an update with some pictures, but...

I have no idea where my camera is! I really don't even have too much to update about. Christmas came and went in a blur. I have been working a lot and with two kids on top of that I am super busy.
Brady just started gymnastics class in Washington, PA. This is what she has wanted for a long time. She is already geared up for WVU's gymnastics camp this summer. Jenna (Tom and Steph's daughter) is going to attend also and they are planning on dorming together. Yes. I am going to allow Brady to stay in the dorm for camp. The cut off age is 8 and she will be 8 years old by then. You may think I am crazy, but my girl is very level headed and she will room with Jenna who will be almost 11 by then. Taylor is going to go to WVU's soccer camp so she will probably be in the same dorm as the girls. I love the fact that my daughter is not afraid to branch out on her own and go to this camp and stay in the dorm. I am so proud of her. She is truly a great kid. I probably wouldn't be so quick to let her if Jenna and Taylor weren't going to be there also.
Oliver is as busy as ever. I am always surprised by his next new phrase. Last night at dinner he said, "oh gosh, mom." Where the hell did that come from? Then later he started pounding on me and spewing some gibberish (picture Ralphie in a Christmas Story when he beats up on the bully) I was so shocked I didn't even say anything for about a minute. I think I was trying to understand if he was really angry at me or being silly. So I just took his hands and said, "You don't hit mommy." This morning I was giving Michael a demo and pretending to do to Oliver what he had done to me and Oliver calmly took my hand and said, "Don't hit." Very cool that the connection was made. Some days Oliver is a wild child and I feel like I am losing my mind and some days he is so sweet I can't kiss him enough. He does have a fondness or putting things in my coffee or water or whatever drink I may be having at the moment. I have walked away and came back to find a flashlight, a scrub brush, popcorn, chips...(you name it) in my cup. He has also managed to put something down the toilet that Michael can't get out. He even pulled the toilet to work on it and still nothing. So he bought a new toilet.
I recently applied to be re-admitted to the Master's program I started a few years ago. I was accepted and it looks like I am heading back when the next class I need is offered.
I am going to try to be a better blogger. I feel like I am getting back on track with a lot of things, so keep your fingers crossed that I find my camera!
