Just a boring day around here...

I don't have much to report tonight. I did spend an hour dancing with Ryan, Reed and Ella to a CD it took me about 4 hours to make (apparantly I am MP3 challenged). Is it bad I am in love with a song called Bartender by T Pain? I am so unhip, I guess this song is old, but I just heard it a few weeks ago and yes, I did wake up this morning and go straight to the computer to play it. I am trying to hold on to my youth... Unfortunatly, I think the longer I try to hold on, the more silly I look. Imagine a mother of 3 jamming to rap music in her SUV.  Yep, that was me today. I am so cool. :)

Other than that it was a normal day filled with work, homework and kids who don't want to go to sleep.

Mike started a new workout routine and since I refuse to give in to working out (how long can I milk this having a baby excuse?) I have an hour a night to spend time alone. Before Ella was born I would have spent this time catching up on all the shows I missed, but now I save that for her middle of the night feedings. I normally post to the blog, but I said I was taking a break for a night, I mean, I am not that exciting and I didn't have anything to post. BUT then I went on the computer, typed down syndrome into google and spent 2 hours reading news articles about down syndrome. I tend to stay away from reading to much about down syndrome as I am trying this one step at a time approach to life, but I figured reading news articles was different, so I read everything google had posted on the first 2 pages.  It was awesome. I read about advances in medicine, weddings, early intervention techniques that have worked, etc. There was so much to read and it all seemed to actually reference real people with Down syndrome, not text book speak and clinical research jargon.

I came acrosss one thing I wanted to share. It probably doesn't mean as much to you as it does to me, but reading these quotes was a good way to end my google searching.

Wish I had more to say, but I am even boring myself tonight, so I am off to bed now.  Ms. Ella is fed and hopefully asleep for the next 3 hours, I must get my beauty sleep in now!
