For any of you who I normally drop Entrecards on, I missed you all yesterday with all my blogs.  The first time I attempted to drop, the entire system was down.  When I tried to do it last night, I messed up big time.

During the day yesterday, I had downloaded a Windows Update.  All day long, it kept wanting me to reboot which I did not want to do.  I went grocery shopping last night, and while I was gone, my laptop rebooted itself.  When it did that, it installed the updates.  I think it installed Service Pack 1 for Vista.  No biggy, I thought.  Boy was I wrong.

The updates took over an hour to install which was the time I needed to drop my cards.   Trust me, a lot of swearing was going on here. The crazy thing is that I think my laptop is slower now. Aren’t updates suppose to make it faster?  Needless to say, I apologize to anyone I missed dropping on yesterday.

I swear that my kids never quit eating.  Now, by looking at Madison, you would never guess that.  By looking at Will, you probably would.  As a mom, it is hard to decide what to give your kids as a snack.  I know that I don’t want them eating chips.  Right now, my kids are cereal snack freaks.  They can easily finishing off a big box of cereal in less than a week due to eating it for breakfast and then snacking on it the rest of the day.  I try and pick nonsugary cereals as much as I can (though when daddy goes grocery shopping, he lets Madison pick a box of her own choice which usually is a tad more sugary than I would like). Madison loves vegetable too, so you would think this would be easy.  However, the normal things you would find in a veggie tray is off limits for Will (per his doctor).  I can’t feed Madison something I can’t give Will.  So, in my house, our snacks tend to include cereal, fruit cups, and goldfish crackers.  What kind of snacks do you buy for your kids?

I have to wish my dear hubby a Happy Birthday today!  We have nothing special planned, so I am not sure what we are doing tonight.  Madison wants to go to McDonalds!  LOL  I have a feeling that is not going to be happening.  My mom’s birthday was yesterday so she gets a happy birthday wish too!  Now, we put candles on both their cakes, I wouldn’t need any lighting in my house at all!  Seriously though, I have to go check and see if we have any cake mix, so we can make daddy a cake.  If we do, I’ll make sure we post a picture.  If not, I’m running to the grocery store for cupcakes.
