Evening

Tonight was the kind of night I'd like to have every night (minus the Lorelei not going to bed easily). We ate dinner, went for a walk, played outside for a little bit, the kids got baths and now they're in bed (again, minus Lorelei - well, she's in bed, but making noise). It was nice to hang out together and have a minimal amount of screaming and whining.
I'm downloading pictures right now - I have almost 300 to go through. I can do it pretty quickly now, but it still takes some time. I didn't really get to go through Liam and Lorelei's room today. I wonder if I'll have time tomorrow? I'm looking forward to tomorrow being over. I think the kids will have fun 'cause we'll be out and about, but it's going to be stressful for me. And I don't know how Maggie's going to do with dance class. I'm not sure if putting she and Molly in a class together is a good thing or not. Guess we'll see. I'm planning on shopping while they're in class. It will be different with just Lorelei and Liam along!
I think I may have blogged about this before, but it continues to puzzle me. Can all plants live without dirt? So far I've converted a number of plants in my house to water and they're all doing well. Better than the other plants, actually, because I can tell when their water is running out. I haven't done them all, although I'm really tempted to do a few other ones that seem perpetually dry and dying. I have an orchid that is dying. I can't figure out what conditions it wants, but I guess I don't have them. So it will be replaced soon. It's a pity because it was very pretty, but at this point I don't see it flowering again.
We'll have another Buffy session tomorrow. If we watch 4 episodes a night it will still take us 39 nights to watch it. Since we don't watch every Wednesday, it will probably take us a while. Especially since we have other shows we watch starting in January. We might have to add another Buffy dedicated night...
Lorelei is still making noise. That girl just doesn't give it up. She's our only kid who doesn't put him/herself to sleep. Liam already does it. Molly and Maggie did by his age too - and never reverted. Lorelei used to, I think... I can't actually remember. But she hasn't for a while now. I don't know what to do. Crying it out doesn't work - she'll just make herself puke... I know I've blogged about this before, but it continues to be an issue. She's crying now, so I guess I have to go back up since Bob is working tonight...
Photos are done. Maybe I can get them up and posted before 10!
ttfn!
