November Update

  Amid our usual craziness of Girl Scouts, Mom's Group, Mission Friends, and school we have had many accomplishments in the month of November.

   Gwiny is now at a 4.3 reading level.  (4th grade, 3rd month) and has developed a love for reading.   This makes me a very happy mommy. She still loves to wear clothes that are too short and too tight, which is a very big challenge for all of us and has become worse now that the weather has turned cold.

   Izzy got all E's and S's on her progress report and has kept her behavior on super star all month!

   Emma developed a love for T.V. and just wants to cuddle and watch Dora all day.  This is a huge struggle for me.  I don't want her to watch T.V. all day but it is so nice getting to cuddle my baby while she still wants me too.

   We shared a great thanksgiving with both sides of our families, and while I tried not to over eat, I'm pretty sure I failed miserably.  I bought a new washer/dryer on black Thursday?  and for the first time in a long time a DRESS on Friday. And then was cursed for my too much shopping too little sleeping with horrible ear infections that are letting me give in to Emma's desire to lay down and cuddle all day.

   And I opened an etsy shop.  You can check it out at www.etsy.com/shop/semprastudios.  If you know any one that you may be interested in purchasing some Harry Potter stuff for Christmas let me know.  I will change my shipping rates or give you a discount or something.  I'm still learning how all of this works.  I guess I should have done more research before jumping right in to this.  But that is far too rational for my life.








I also upgraded my mac from Leopard to Snow Leopard which doesn't let me preview my photos before inserting them into things.  So I think I am just going to throw some randomly numbered photos in here and see how that turns out.  ( surprisingly not terrible )
