[Donna, The Pusher]

You are moving quick!

[Jen]

Yeah, I had a rare and lucky weekend. The kids pretty much entertained themselves, so I was able to finish two full books. I'm just over halfway done with Obsidian Butterfly, and am hoping to finish it by Saturday. Then I think I'm moving on to Ella Enchanted! :)

Oh, and after reading so many 1,000+ pages books in a row, the regular size books are refreshing and quick! Don't worry, I've got quite a few 1,000+ books lined up for this year... after a slight vacation from them.

[Donna, The Pusher]

Oh so do I!!!

I can't wait until my kids are old enough to entertain themselves, or each other for that matter.

[Jen]

Yeah, mine are 5 1/2 and almost 2... but the little guy thinks he's 5. Sometimes he's always in my daughters way, and sometimes they play really well together. I really enjoyed the fact that they played well together for pretty much the whole weekend!

Oh, I just realized that my daughter has gymnastics tonight (if the weather isn't too bad) and tomorrow night... I might just get a little extra reading time in! Yay!

[Donna, The Pusher]

Mine are 6 months and 21 months! They are close in age but....

[Jen]

Yeah, that's pretty young for them to entertain themselves. Someday!

[Jen]

I finished up Obsidian Butterfly, and am going to start Ella Enchanted tonight. :) I am on one heck of a reading roll! Here's to hoping it'll last!

[Donna, The Pusher]

Go Jenni go!

[Jen]

On to The Woman in White!

[Jen]

New audio - The Battle of the Labyrinth!

[Donna, The Pusher]

WOW I only have 2 thus far!!!! Well, mainly because I was finishing 2 from 2009 but still, WOW!

[Jen]

Oh don't worry Donna, I'm reading The Woman in White right now... great book, but it's a slower read. It'll be a bit before I finish it... my awesomeness in reading will end soon, I'm sure. :)

[Jen]

I just finished The Battle of the Labyrinth, and should be starting the audio of The Last Olympian tomorrow. I should also be finishing The Woman in White this week - hope for me! :)

[Jen]

I just updated my first post... I've now hit 14 letters! I've just started Outlander after finishing The Other Boleyn Girl. I'd be hitting these letters faster if I didn't keep repeating letters. :)

[Donna, The Pusher]

I have repeated P's S's and E's and none of them are on my "planned" reading list LOL

[Jen]

My pesky letters are the T's and the O's. There are a few other letters which will become pesky soon... but I'm not worried... I still have 9 months. :) (All of us mommy's know that a lot can happen in 9 months!)

[Donna, The Pusher]

In my case 8! LOL

[Jen]

LOL!

[Jen]
