Did you get in trouble?

Family Fun, Humor, Kevin, Me, Michael
So yesterday I picked up Kevin from work, he got in the car and I noticed he has something on his cheek and wiped it off. He said, "It's probably saw dust." Huh??? How does a "professional geek" get saw dust on himself at work? Well I asked, probably more with a quizzical look and cock of the head than anything verbal, and he said, "I was moving workstations, and I drilled a hole in my desk." So Michael pipes up from the backseat "Did you get in trouble?" As usual, it took me too long to put two and two together, then it took a few minutes to stop giggling as I explained that it was OK for Daddy to drill holes in his desk, because he had permission,…

My Birthday in Review

Family Fun, Me, Pictures
I had a pretty good day. We got up and took Kevin to work. On the way home we went to the grocery store and picked up some strawberries, cream and chocolate for ganache for the cake we were going to make, and some cheese bread and crab salad for lunch, and a few other odds and ends. We came home and enjoyed playing together, I got to watch some girly shows, and I got to get a shower, that never happens when Kevin isn't home, I had to wait till Joseph took a nap and then get the other boys doubly distracted between the computer and kiddy TV shows. Every time Aiden got whinny I pulled the "birthday card," and thankfully all major tantrums were avoided. Yay! My Mom…

Happy Birthday To Me!!!

Family Fun, Me, Memories
I'm so excited, today is my birthday. No big plans, but I'm excited for this year. I'm 26! It's also kinda a sad day, it's the one year anniversary of my Uncle Lorin's passing. So last year, being a big milestone birthday, wasn't great, but I was releived that it happened on my birthday instead of his daughters or another cousin who was a lot closer to him, they both celebrated birthdays in the last few days... I know he wouldn't want me to be sad. And I wish my Aunt and cousins the best today. He's up there with their two little ones who've gone before. So, I don't have any special plans, but I just feel good, and I'm happy to be enjoying another year.

This would be the best Birthday present Ever

Baby Joey
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080603/ap_on_el_pr/clinton We'll see if it actually happens. EDIT~  Hahaha, I guess they changed the article from the link, it was originally Clinton dropping out...  guess you can't always get exactly what you want...  LOL!  At this moment she's trying for VP <rollseyes>  I can't decide if I just want elections to be over, or if I dread the outcome...

Baby Hungry

Adoption, Baby Joey
ME. I'm baby hungry. Every time I see a baby, no matter what he or she looks like, their temperament, or if I know them or not, I just wanna cuddle them and give em love. I refrain from snatching babies out of people arms, or touching babies I don't know, but I just stare at beautiful innocent baby eyes, adorable fingers and toes and marvel at the sheer beauty that tiny people hold in spades. I hurt so much for all the "mama's without a baby" out there. I'm so glad we have Joey or this would mean some serious heart ache here. I have a feeling that he'll be my little baby long after the baby fat is gone, and I'll cuddle him either until he breaks my…

Last Day of School & Prayer Request, Please

Church, Family Fun, Michael
Today was Michael's last day of Kindergarten. We decided after talking with Michael's teacher that it would be best to decline summer school. He actually did very well with his grades other than his social grades, which we were fully aware would be a problem. So until 1st grade starts this fall, we're all together all day (other than Daddy who thankfully goes to work to take care of us). We're really looking forwards to this. So, today was a half day, surprise! Somehow, in all of the paperwork that's been sent home, and a reminder call from the school about something else that I hung up on once I realized it was about something I knew about, and very possibly reminded parents it was an early out day, I…

What a Weekend

Baby Joey, Family Fun, Michael, To new beginnings
Nothing big going on. I haven't even had a chance to upload the pics from Friday and Saturday, let alone look them over or post some. Friday the little boys and I went to Michael's preschool graduation. It was a rough day by way of Mommies, but I think Michael had a nice time. I'm still planning on posting a new post about that soon. Saturday we went to IKEA to spend out stimulus check, or at least a portion of it. I've had my eye on dinning room benches for some time, and I didn't get the ones I'd wanted (those ones were $250 a piece! Youch!) I got some that will do the job nicely and go in the style direction we like. We'll be tossing our current…

Ghost Town

Blog Changes, The end is near
It's a ghost town around here. Has the whole blogging world gone to sleep? Maybe it's the beginning of the demise of this whole blogging trend, maybe soon only serious bloggers will be left behind. ;) I've noticed MANY, many friends who used to blog daily now only blogging weekly, and many other who used to be weekly bloggers, who I haven't seen a new post from in a while. It's kinda funny, I guess we all find our own rhythm. It's nice to be able to be relaxed about this. Soon to come... Michael's Kindergarten Graduation, and our Holiday weekend.
