I just posted this BENADRYL® Pollen Alert widget for 250 credits. You can earn free credits too!

Finally, a quick update. 

• The kids are doing great!  Briana is doing well in school, Emilie is basically the best kid anyone could hope for, and Madelyn had a huge growth spurt.  Can you believe she will be 2 in a little over a month?  2! 
• I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of Spring.  I have many little seedlings sprouting on my windowsills and I want to get them in the ground.   This will be our first growing season living in the house, and our yard is huge so I'm doing a garden.
  
• March will be full of appointments for us - dentist, mostly.   I'm not looking forward to it.
• I've gotten into contact with an aunt (my fathers sister).   If you recall, the first time I met my father was at the age of 22 (when he got out of prison).   He has had 4 children since then - two sets of twins.  The girls are 3, and the boys recently turned a year old.  I'm not sure what type of relationship I want to have... I would be content with sending Christmas cards, etc.
  
• I'm finally getting serious about losing weight.  We recently bought a treadmill and I'm doing 5 miles a day on it.  I've also started yoga.  I have 40 pounds to lose, and am giving myself a year to do it.
  

And because no post from me would be complete with out pictures....

This is the sunflower Briana is growing:
