Can't Sleep

Ever have so many things running through you mind that you want to get done tomorrow that you can't fall asleep? That's me. Here's what I hope to do tomorrow:

1) Bathe everybody
2) Take Maggie to the groomer
3) Drop off a Pampered Chef catalog to my friend Gretchen
4) Get cash out of the ATM
5) Get propane
6) Bake an angel food cake
7) Do my abdominal exercises
8) Put Elizabeth's laundry away
9) Get my Pampered Chef order ready
10) Slice tomatoes and onions and clean lettuce for dinner (hamburgers, which is why I need propane for the grill)

Plus I know I have to call two friends from church back at some point this week-the sooner the better. My Aunt Dar and cousin Courtney may be coming over for dinner tomorrow night. Keith and I are taking dinner over to a friend's house Tue evening as they just had a baby. Wednesday is Cinco de Mayo. The menu: homemade tamales, rice and beans, chips and salsa, margheritas, and probably ice cream. I don't believe anything is planned yet for Thursday or Friday. We will hopefully be hosting a game night with some friends Saturday evening. Otherwise I hope to have a gardening weekend next weekend. Sunday being Mother's Day I will have to go to church with my mom. It's hard going back to a non-spirit-filled church but I told her I would. It will mean a lot to her I think.

Quick updates:

Elizabeth-got two bottom teeth 4/20 and rolled over, back-to-front, for the first time 4/24.

Josiah-is now in a toddler bed, though he's having some trouble figuring it out. Every morning I walk into his room to find him in bed with something that wasn't in his bed the night before. Yesterday morning I woke to him screaming and crying. Walked into his room and found him holding his rocket, which is a riding toy, trying to get it into his bed. This toy is much too big for his bed. Thankfully he still thinks I need to get him out of his bed in the morning and after naps. He is having a harder time falling asleep for naps. Josiah also loves wearing hats. I forgot I let him sleep with his orange hat one night and went into his room the next morning to find him stripped down to his diaper with his orange hat on backwards. Josiah wrote the book on cute.

Isaac-growing up way too fast. A wonderful little boy.We plan on signing him up for swim lessons starting in June.

Me-same old same old.

Keith-busy at work as always. Keith learned that his group will definitely be moving to Cranberry in November. At this point we still plan to stay in our house. I do have a feeling that Keith will not like the commute. We're kind of waiting to do any home improvements until we know for sure that we're staying here. I do not want to pour a bunch of money into this house, making it the way we want it, only to sell it and start all over in a new house.

Hope everyone is getting a good night's sleep tonight, 'cause I'm not!
