Life Lately and a Couple A' Links



Of course this little girl was delighted for an opportunity to represent her favorite book character at school one day.  She even made the paper crest patch for her robe.  She makes a cute Hermione, huh?




We went for a walk on a clear but cold day last week.  The kids were in heaven (even though I made that cute girl go back in and change into warmer pants).  It was so nice to be outside after living through a very long, gray, wet, bitterly cold winter.  Ever since that day the baby tells me "go a walk!  go a walk!"  These opposing creative outfits really express these girls' personalities.



If you would like to watch a replay of the webinar "Get Kids to Listen Without Nagging, Reminding, or Yelling" see here.  I have also spent some time watching some of her other training sessions (it did cost some money, I will have to give you a free rundown after I'm finished :).  Its been very helpful for me personally, as I was in need of some tips in some trouble areas, including my upcoming resolution to work on the morning routine!).  I'm also reading a couple of books that will make for some interesting future post material. Wahoo!

And, for those of you who need a break sometimes from thinking only about parenting and kids, here are a couple of fun links.  This one, on printed denim.  What do you think?  And this super cute swimsuit, out of my price range and would never work on my body, but it's fun to dream (maybe a good motivator to start exercising again?).  And for my cerebral friends?  Tell me about a good book you read lately?  I'm going to read this.  What about favorite movies?  I saw two excellent films over the last month.  The Artist (loved it), and the controversial Les Mis (made me cry).  What about you?

Happy Thursday everyone!
