Notary, anyone?

Man, trying to find a notary these days is like pulling teeth; it hurts! I bank with several well-known institutions, but one of them, when calling the branch, says they will do it - they just don't open until 9am. And when I called their Customer Service number, they claim they do not notarize non-bank paperwork. O.K.

So, I am going to turn my sights on to the other bank, where I know there will be a fee (isn't there always?) - but at least they open at 8am.

Today is the first day of "preschool" for Nicolas. We have to have a medical form notarized and on file for him.

I wonder if this kid really appreciates all that we do for him! ;)

Our Weekend

We spent Saturday with my parents and my cousin and her family... at the Renaissance Festival. It was a beautiful day in the desert and we had a really good time. The festival is about 30 miles east of Phoenix, near the Superstition Mountains. The views are spectacular and the weather was amazing.

Here are some pics:

On Sunday (today), it was just me and the kids - I made chocolate chip pancakes (at their insistence) for breakfast, then Mac n' Cheese with hamburger meat for lunch, and then chicken (baked in the crock pot for hours) with broccoli and then homemade baked cinnamon apples.

The kids played outside for a while; practicing playing catch. Isabel starts softball on March 31st. We are very excited about that. It last for 8 weeks. Once it's over, I think we are going to look into tumbling. I saw a place just around the corner from us.

Nicolas starts a new daycare / preschool tomorrow. I hope it's a great fit.

Well, it's Sunday night and as usual I feel that I have accomplished nothing! I wish our lives were more organized. It's something we are working on for sure.
