Chase has his first dance tonight. He's going with his friend Allyssia. They are both wearing I love NY shirts. Hers is pink and his is black. Leave it to Chase to coordinate their outfits :)

Deke and I are adjusting to being together every day. I believe he thinks everyday is a weekend, because I'm home all day. He's such a happy baby. Right now he's doing the "basket shuffle", i.e. walking around pushing a laundry basket. We've tried playing ball, but he doesn't have the patience to go fetch the ball every time I over throw it. He let me know he was done playing by putting the ball back in the toy basket....giggle.

The girls (Savannah and Jilda) are living a large life, by having free range of the house during the day. I never realized that Jilda barks ALL day long. While I go in there at least 15 times in one day and tell her to be quite, Chase comes home from school and within 5 minutes shuts the blinds in the sun room. She quit barking. Once again, I've been shown up by an 11 year old!

Tonight Darrin and I are going to dinner together, while Lacreta (Dilly's mom) watches Deke. Other than that, we haven't got much planned. Although, things change quickly around here, so who knows where we'll end up.

I've been staying busy working on the walk. We have friends and family that are coming into town and plan on having a great time visiting with everyone. An interesting note on the fundraising is that Darrin set up a charity on-line poker tournament, with the proceeds going to ALSA. Not only has there been interest from the players, but they're donating to the team as well. Rock on poker players!!!

Here's the information about the tournament if folks are interested. It's on Fulltiltpocker.com.

I've noticed that my right upper thigh has begun twitching. We're hoping that it's related to the last EMG test and that once my muscles recuperate, the twitch will go away.

Have a wonderful weekend!
