New Years Resolutions

I didn't make any New Years Resolutions this year, thought Josh and I have resolved to give up cable TV for 6 months after the Superbowl. This is a big deal. For some reason I have had a hard time keeping up with the blog since the Halloween blowout of 2010. But, here, I resolve to do better!

Tonight I want to write a few of the things that the kids have been doing lately.

1) Casey still substitutes "f" for "th." She says, "Mom, I'm really firsty." It is so cute! I absolutely do not correct her!

2) Jacob is a blast to watch football with. He doesn't always get the playoff system, but he can follow the game really well. He yells, shouts, jumps and claps. It's the one environment in which his loud voice and enthusiasm are very welcome!

3) This weekend Casey called a poached egg a "boached" egg.

4) I still haven't taken down the Christmas stockings, and this morning I came upon Jacob and Casey playing "Santa." Jacob pretended to be Santa while Casey pretended to sleep. Jacob put her lovey in the stocking.

5) Casey wears her pajamas to school almost every day. When it's the cute poodle jammies she got for Christmas I don't mind that much.

6) Jacob says "You've got to be kidding me" almost every other sentence.

7) Jacob loves the Shepard Pie I made with the beef we got at the Turkey Farm we visited in October. Casey has been calling the Shepard's Pie the "cake."

8) Going to pick Jacob up from aftercare tonight it was dark and wet. Fortunately, Casey was wearing her new princess shoes that light up!

I don't make New Years resolutions either. I KNOW how hard that is going to be for you guys, going without cable TV? Let me know when you get it back so I can plan my trip up! LOL. (of course I am just kidding)
I love this blog entry. I have missed all the news.

Giving up cable for six months?! NOOOOOOO.

Actually, I didn't even watch cable until we got DVR last summer. Now I LOVE it- but only because I have it in the kitchen and can watch movies and shows I've recorded while making lunches/dinners, etc.

Punky says 'f' instead of 'th,' too, but she's in first grade now and it's starting to bother me. I haven't done anything because she CAN say 'th'-- she just PREFERS NOT TO. I'm hoping someone at school will just bully her out of it and save me the trouble. Heh.
