This Year's Christmas Cards

Due to increasing age, forgetfulness, and my decreasing ability to send cards on time, here is my card to cover every Holiday.



Happy Friggin' Everything....

You Can't Say I Didn't Warn You

Here's an e-mail I got from Pole-La-Teaz today....lol

Hello Ladies!

Welcome to a new session of pole dancing at PoleLaTeaz. We are very excited to have you at the studio! And with each new session comes new and challenging spins! With that said, we'd like to remind you to pace yourself while practicing at home. We understand pole dancing is addicting - a fun and healthy addiction - but please remember not to over do it by practicing several hours a day, every day of the week, especially when you're starting a new workout regimen! Whether you've been taking pole dancing with us for a couple of sessions or is a Level 1 student, it's best to balance out your workout to minimize injury from overuse of any specific muscle groups.

We highly encourage you to practice your pole spins at home, but we also recommend balancing out your workout schedule by sensually dancing in your kitchen one day, planking and doing ab crunches in your living room during tv commercial breaks another day, and working on relaxing and stretching as well. Also, don't forget that PoleLaTeaz offers non-pole casual classes such as Chair Dance, Jiggle It, and Exotic Yoga to add fun and spice to your workout schedule!

Have a wonderful session and please listen to your body and pace yourself!

Sincerely,

PoleLaTeaz Staff

Charlie Bit Me!!

So, I realize that I am probably the last person ever to see this since there are like 45 million views on it, but I saw this this past weekend and thought it was so cute and halarious I had to post it! Enjoy :)

Summer

Our latest venture into literature with Ella has been the Random House Book of Poetry for Children. We read several poems a night, and Ella just sits and listens. She chooses to have us read it to her every night! Tonight we read this short, funny poem called "Summer" by Frank Asch. Ella thought it was so funny, and we both just laughed. She had me read it to her again, and at that point she had it memorized and just started reciting it! After we were done with our reading, she wanted to go downstairs and tell Daddy the funny poem.

So here it the poem. Enjoy :)

Summer

When it's hot
I take my shoes off
I take my shirt off
I take my pants off
I take my underwear off
I take my whole body off
and throw it in the river.

Hilarious Bouncing Ball

This is a video of Cooper thinking a bouncing ball is the most hilarious thing he has ever seen! So cute...

A Mother's Prayer

I am still reading the Book "The Power of a Positive Mom". I am in the chapter titled "Women of Prayer". Here is a Mother's Prayer that she has in there.

"Dear Lord, so far today I am doing pretty well. I haven't screamed at the kids or thrown anything in a burst of anger. I have not grumbled or gossiped or whined. I haven't been greedy or self-centered. I have not yet charged anything to the credit card, and I haven't pigged out on the chocolate cake in the refrigerator. However, in a few minutes I will be getting out of bed, and I am going to need your help to make it through the rest of the day. Amen"

Haha!! Can you relate sometimes??

New Link...Funny!

So, I came across this blog that you must check out. The link is to the right, it is called "Stuff Christians Like".

Go.Read.Enjoy :)

It's Business Time

Couple's First Dance

I saw this on Good Morning America today. You have to watch!

For all you Moms out there-this is great!

Exchange Policy?

Conversation with Ella tonight as I was running a bath for her and Cooper:

Ella: Why do we have a boy baby?

Me: Because that is what God gave us! Isn't that great?

Ella: I want a girl baby!

Ooooookkkkaaayyyyy.......

Tough Love vs. Spanking

Tough Love vs. Spanking ~
(a psychological conundrum )

Most of America 's populace thinks it improper to spank children, so I have tried other methods to control my kids when they have one of "those moments."

One that I found effective is for me to just take the child
for a car ride and talk.

They usually calm down and stop misbehaving
after our car ride together.

I've included a photo below of one of my sessions
with my son, in case you would like to use the technique.

Sincerely,
A Friend
