um..why do we get snow ?

so a couple weeks ago..we had a "snow storm"..and I most this in awake, of the current threat of 10 inches..we are suppost to get.... which means.. THE TOWN SHUTS DOWN!! oo geez..

I swear, we have had more snowdays here then I have ever had in NY.

This was at 5am.. I woke up in getting ready for work and just yeah..so this next picture is a bit scary..but I wanted to make a snowman!! It has been like 2 years since I have been able to.

so maybe I wil be able to post more snow pictures... if we do get the snow..

*Sorry my blog has been lacked, things have been out of control with life and its challenges.

"you like Bono?"

haha..that was a random question asked to me the other day at church.. I was thrown off guard by it.. and I was like, where did that come from? It was in refrence to my "ONE" braclet.

"ONE is a grassroots campaign and advocacy organization backed by more than 2 million people from around the world and every walk of life who are committed to the fight against extreme poverty and preventable disease, particularly in Africa.At ONE, we achieve change through advocacy. We hold world leaders accountable for the promises made to the poorest people, and we press these leaders to support better policies and more effective aid and trade reform. We also support greater democracy, accountability and transparency in developing countries so these resources can be effectively deployed. Cofounded by Bono, Bobby Shriver and other campaigners, and supported by Bob Geldof and other high profile activists, ONE is nonpartisan and works with activists from the left, right and center to mobilize public opinion in support of effective, proven initiatives that are delivering results: protecting families from preventable diseases like AIDS and malaria, putting kids in school, providing economic opportunity and stabilizing communities. To help ensure the policies we advocate are effective, we seek advice from leading African anti-poverty campaigners and policy experts. At ONE, we believe the fight against poverty is not about charity, but about justice and equality. We are honored to be part of a greater movement of people and organizations working to end poverty throughout the world."

I bought a pack of braclets back a couple years ago at a DMB concert, and haven't taken it off since. Its along the same lines as LiveStrong. A constant standard of truth in the form of wearing it? Sorta..?

Yeah.. random train of thought.
So the answer to that question is YES.
I am currently on a huge Joshua Tree kick.
ahh man.

where have ya been?

Finally getting back into the swing of things. Was out from everything with wicked illness; labled as pneomonia..yet antibodics failed to defeat it (at least in my mothers case, she is still down and out from it) After two weeks of on and off working, they would send me home when I tried to come in..cause I was tha sick. But I needed to work. But I am back full time! Today was my first day. Man, I missed tho kidos. Below is a picture from today at snack time. I must say, I had her in the cutest outfit ever today! So adorable.. should of taken a picture of her in it, but wasn't think. Yup.
I am still "my JJ" haha.

I am at a lost of trying to get her to potty train. She clearly says, "No, I like diapers". Never had a kid tell me that before. O well, I will just keep trying I guess, any ideas?



Well I am off to bed, super early I know. But still recovering and trying to get back into the swing of things.

and then something happens..

it always does.. you get into the routine of things, not that a couple weeks is justified as a routine, but still. You notice the off swing in your routine.





a change that you had no control over.





mom is down again. Pneomia.





so my routine of things is kinda shaken up for the time beginning.

well that is that.. not much progress, but i feel the change in routine already.

maybe i will just do something different for today, and go back tommorow. cant stop everything for something I can change.

snugbug.

Yup. Thats my boy.
: ]

and go buy The Fray's new CD. Its amazing.
Mmmh

princess potty!

so the picture isnt the best, due to that fact that its impossible to get her to sit still, and its from my cellphone..

but this little princess went on the potty twice today!!!
and I am a huge dork, because I was dancing and doing all tons of crazy stuff, to make sure she would want to do it again and again..and forever haha.

It seemed to work! So hopefully my silly dance, chocolate, and sticker chart will keep up the good work!

She is so stubborn when it comes to things, it feels like a miracle!
Im such a proud nanny, then I come home from work and want to share the news!

I actually stopped at the Y, before heading home.
I need good running tunes, music is my life..and I cant seem to find a good set list, that has flow to my workout..it seems to hop around and just not very flowly.any ideas?

SHOUT OUT TO THE PIERCE FAMILY!!!

random videos..

so I am getting better at this!! I fiqured out how to upload videos from my cellphone onto blogger! haha. this first one is from when I first started my current nanny gig, so over a year ago, she was so little!! watch at the end of the video..

it was so funny!! she didnt get hurt but man, I have never laughed so hard, and I still laugh now when I watch it!!

this next one is more recent, it was at playgroup..lately, she just starts humming and singing..

"snow" day

so in my four years of highschool, we never ever had a "snowday"...all the other school would get them. and go old HFL, never did.

and today, the kids here had a "snow"day..but there was no snow!!

appareantly the "fear" of snow, is enough to cause people to panick and close schools..

haha.


well it made for a fun day of Rockband and Raging Rabbits (Wii games)

still, no snow in the VA.
