We are on Spring Break. So, if you are thinking I have disappeared from blogging - it is actually much worse...

It's Spring Break.

We have had a great week, actually. (It is ONLY Wednesday)

I cannot explain to you how much I can sense that Macy is turning FOUR in just 2.5 Months. It is quickly approaching and she is becoming this precious (and self-sufficient) child. Of course, I don't mean to infer that I force my children into complete "self-sufficiency" at Age 4 - but it's close. She can buckle the car-seat on her own....She can.....ok, so maybe the self-sufficient thing was a bit of a stretch...but - it's coming!!!!!!! I love four year olds, if you don't know that about me already.

To provide a little proof to the community that I do pay a little attention to my children - I would like to document our week thus far:

MONDAY: We went to Chick-Fil-A (Love this place) and had a ton of fun over nuggets, fruit and ice cream instead of educational toys. Macy has gotten over her tendency toward locking kids out of the play area.

TUESDAY: St. Patty's Day - We wore ridiculous amounts of Green. I love being a mom. You can really get away with looking stupid on holidays like St. Patty's Day (as long as you have your kids with you) We celebrated the big day at the Callaghan's with Corned Beef and Cabbage. That's what real Irish-Americans eat. So, I've been told. The Callaghan's are well aware that Shauna may not like it but she will eat it to fit in.

WEDNESDAY: I actually neglected my kids a bit today because I had some work to do. Sorry...I WAS on a roll with this parenting thing. What did I do well? What did I do well? I made dinner....They didn't really eat much of it....but I made it.

Tomorrow - I am taking one child to a birthday party and maybe even taking them swimming at the Health Club. To compensate for today of course.

Hope your week is going well!
Happy Spring Break '09.
