The office change....and my first attempt at yodeling

Ok, so if you haven't figured it out, the office switch is really switching the kid's rooms and the twins got twin beds. (Why do they call them twin beds when there's only one of them, but I had to buy two?)

At nap time it's not always going so well. I don't know if it's because dh is putting them down and I don't think they are quite sleepy enough....I think he just wants to put them down so he can do whatever. And, he's not consistant in getting them to stay in their beds. Today he was watching TV and would only go in there on commercials. Needless to say, they made a mess, and O woke up S. They do really well at bedtime. Once in a while we will need to go back in there, but not usually. I sure can't wait until their furniture gets here. I was told that it should be shipped today or tomorrow. I hope it's true and that they weren't just feeding me a line of bull.

O and S got new shoes. I printed out the sizing chart and measured their little feet. It is so neat to see that their little feet measure the exact same. One foot is a little bigger than the other and it's the same size and same foot as the other twin. I guess that's how it goes for identical twins. Today was nice with beautiful sunshine, so I took the kids outside for a little walk up our street. Of course they found and fell into mud puddles with their new shoes. Oh well, they had to get broke in sometime, huh? Brian got them cleaned off pretty good. It was nice for all of us to get some fresh air.

I got my CD, U2 Can Yodel, today!! I am so excited. I am already learning how to break my voice. I sure hope I can get my girls to yodel with me eventually. Wouldn't that be cool? Finally, a dream I have had for 16 years is coming true! I am finally learning to yodel! I can't believe I'm doing this, but here is my first attempt (first day) at yodeling. You might want earplugs and to make sure your precious crystal isn't right by...Oh, and if you listen to this, you MUST leave a comment so I know you listened to it. So, the next time you see me, if I see you snickering, at least I will know why! ha!


Signing off! - Julie, who is still sort of zombie-like, but not too bad, just a little out of it.

I think that is a wonderful attempt at learning how to yodel! I am not a good singer, so it is something that I would not even attempt. I love it when people follow their dreams! Keep it up! Hugs, Angela

No, I don't know anyone else that knows how to yodel. I guess there was someone I went to school with in middle school that yodeled once. I never even thought about it then, I don't think. It's just something I decided I wanted to learn to do one day when I was 19. Then on that show, "America's Got Talent" there was this young girl who was an awesome yodeler. That made me think about it again, although I've thought of it several times over the last 16 years.

Thank you to those who listened and even more to the two that commented!

Moo and I just got done listening to your yodeling. We like it! It makes me think of "The Lonely Goat Herd" from the Sound of Music. I love that song!
