last night, a deer hit me!! really, my first thought when i saw the deer was, don’t swerve! i have heard that some many times, i don’t know if it helped or not. i did slam on my brakes, and i don’t know if that helped or not either. first, it hit my side mirror, then hit the rear door right underneath the window(kate’s side, she didn’t even flinch, she was watching dora at the time), then, the back rear panel( that is the biggest, most noticeable dent) and took out my taillight. what a bummer! i feel like this car is a magnet for accidents, first, i backed into my mother-in-law’s truck( i don’t blame the car, it was my fault), then a kid runs into me, right in the back drivers side door, and now this!

today, we signed lane up for preschool. i can’t believe he is old enough, but he is definitely ready! jason says it makes him feel old, it makes me feel a little sad that he isn’t my baby anymore. he was so excited today and just wanted to stay and watch the class. the teacher invited us in but i knew we would never get old of there if we went in.
while kate napped this morning, i made jason some caramel crispix for his fishing trip this week. a client made me some for christmas and he couldn’t stop eating it. i got the recipe from nina and it turned out great. of course we had to sample a little.

then, lane and i made sugar cookies. we used the betty crocker sugar cookie mix( i love it, it is so easy and tastes so good!), but we made our own frosting. it is good, but really, really sweet. I LOVE frosting, but i couldn’t eat much. that is probably not a bad thing. i do think lane ate more frosting then he actually put on the cookies.
