My one reader notified me that my blog is getting dusty. I can't believe it's been a month. The novelty off blogging has worn off. The good news is, thanks to Stephanie, I now know how to make a header so I will no longer have a sheet of paper as my title and header. I'm just waiting for a good picture to post, it might be a while. Hang in there Steph, I will get it done! For now, don't mind the construction or the dust.
So, since I am so behind, I will just give you the happenings of today. This morning I looked out Jake's bedroom window, which faces my dad's house down the road, and I saw large flames and black smoke. I called down there, let it ring 3 times and then called 911 to report the fire. Then I drove down the road to investigate. There was my dad, standing in the driveway to his workshop, burning furniture and junk he hauled out from an apartment his tenants had left. I called 911 back and told them it was a big mistake, but they sent a fire truck and cop out to investigate anyway. My dad, who is also the township supervisor, is a little pissed at me right now. The fire chief told him he could not burn furniture, and everyone in Concord will know about this by tomorrow.
After all this, I decided to take the kids to the big downtown library to stock up for a trip up north on Sunday. Tyler always poops in libraries. Guaranteed. He must feel relaxed there among the books. Did I bring in the diaper bag? Nope. I made him wait till I was finished- I did not want to go 3 floors down and out to the parking lot for the bag. I picked out my movies and books and realized I didn't have a single dollar- even in change to pay for the movies. Now I had 2 reasons to go to the car. So down to the car we went. Get to the car- no wipes, no money. Load the kids in the car, drive to ATM. Get money. Clean Tyler as best as I could with no wipes. Back up to 3 floor. No library card. Back out to car-3 floors down- to get license to get new card. I was at the library for a total of 2 freakin hours going up and down freakin stairs. Lesson learned- Be organized, be prepared. As a mother of a 4 year old and a 2 year old, I should know this by now!
I am ready for this day to be done.

You crack me up Sadie. Glad Steph gave you the 411 on the blog header. Let me know if you need any help.
This will probably be too much information but what happends to Tyler is exactly what happens to me in the library. I want to know what Jake was saying after the third trip.....Mom
