Hey sister, go sister, soul sister, go sister

Well, I officially lost five pounds since I got the braces on, which was about seven weeks ago. I have learned to eat real food again in that time, so I didn't starve on applesauce and cream of wheat for too long. For some foods I still have to wear that silly bite plate, but for others I can leave it out. I'm making strides. My upper front teeth have moved out quite a bit already and I'm guessing a few more weeks and my underbite will be gone altogether. I get 'tightened' on Thursday, so I'll be feeling it.

This weekend will be March. What do we all think of that?!?!?
Hitting the 40s is going to be a mood-lifter for everyone. *heavy sigh*

Jules has a bday party on Friday eve, so Ali wanted to have a friend over. I thought, you know what... let's hang out together instead. I really enjoy my time with that kid and one-on-one is almost unheard of in my house. So, I promised her Chili's for dinner and a little shopping. She seemed pretty pumped about the idea. So much so that this morning she asked if Jules can sleep by Grandma on Saturday night! Ali wants to ditch her little sis all weekend and have me for herself. I'm telling ya, tempting as that is... I'd miss the obnoxious little sh!t.

There are many times where I wonder what it would be like to have just one child. I picture quiet. But then I can't imagine my life without either one of those girls.
