It's been awhile...

WOW

I have really neglected this blog for sometime now.

What have I been doing this whole time?

Well

let me bring you up to speed somewhat......

See this

lil' big man

well he is now

10 1/2 mths old

and weighs.....

are you ready for this....

25 lbs!

He is huge!

Try having to lug him around on your hip all the time.

I was able to visit my brother

who flew in from Arizona with his 2 daughters.

Here is the majority of our family.

Not pictured

is

my Fox

Isabel

my brothers fiance

and

her 2 daughters

and

Ashlea (my pregnant sister) fiance (because he was taking this picture).

I was also able to see my best friend

and

her daughter Rachel.

Me and Kristy
Isn't this the cutest looking butt!
Seriously...
I love this picture.
The blue's are so brilliant.


Lets see...
what else have I been up too?!?
Oh yah...
getting ready for my Fox's homecoming.
It will be here very very soon.
We are getting soooo excited
as you can imagine.

Something that Ian is really excited about is
getting new
twin beds.
He keeps telling me that
when lil' big man gets bigger
he wants to get
twin beds
so that they can sleep together in the same room.
He loves his baby brother.

Speaking of twins....

in case you haven't already
heard
or
seen
I had my mommy make over surgery.
You can read about it
and
see all my
before
and
after
pictures

I finally blogged about my trip to the

Go over and check it out.

It only took me

FOREVER and a DAY

to post it!

Sunday pics

Here are a few pictures from yesterday.

I honestly can't even remember what we did on Saturday.

My brain is fried.

And it's only Monday.

Sunday,

Isabel went to a birthday party.

I do remember that!

That is why she isn't in any of these pictures.

Ian always has so much fun climbing the trees in our front yard.

Yesterday he was bird watching.

Aren't his little PT shorts adorable!!!!!

Emma-Kay dressed herself yesterday.
Pink sweatshirt.
(even though it was in the high 80's yesterday...she said she was cold)
Pink tutu.
Pink razor scooter.
Pink borrowed purse from Vivian.
She also had on pink rainboots,
but it didn't take long before she was barefoot like the Flintstones.
She is my little Pinkalicious girl.
And my sweet Spitball.
He has been cutting his top teeth in all weekend long.

New wallet

I've been on the hunt for a new wallet.

I've had the same old one,

for almost 3yrs now

and

I had really become bored with it.

UNTIL......

I found this lovely.

Isn't she dreamy?
It' a new line from
Vera Bradley
called
Frill.

Super cute....am I right?

Iphone...

I love my IPhone.

I check facebook about 9875973493 times a day on it.
It's my "fake" husband while my "real" husband is gone.

It's my camcorder

My watch

My accessory

My flashlight in the dark.I can check my emails....

and the weather.

It's the perfect chew toy for my teething Spitball.

I take it to the bathroom with me to keep my company while I "dooooo" my business.

It's a game board for me and my chickens.

My GPS when I'm lost.

I wish it had a mirror in it,

so I could make sure I don't have food stuck between my teeth.

I can watch TV or Movies from it.

Listen to music.

I use it as my planning schedule because

I've got soooo many things going on in my life.

It handles all my banking.

I can even direct deposit a check into my account,

on the spot!

When I don't have my beautiful Nikon with me,

my IPhone takes its place.

Calculator.

Oh yah.....

I also use it as my cell phone.

My IPhone is all of this AND more.
Like for example....

when I'm having a "brown bag" moment,

my IPhone keeps me company

and

reassures me that I am loved.

It also keeps me company while I'm driving.

Especially

when I'm sitting at a red light.

It's always there for me,

holding my hand.

I love you IPhone.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day

to my Mother!

I love you and appreciate all the

love

and

support that you have always given me!

Happy Mother's Day

to my

Mother-in-Law.

And I get to spend my
Mother's Day
with all my chickens.
I sure have alot of them,
don't I?

I'm a guest blogger over at

Flip Flops & Combat Boots.
Make sure you go and check it out.

Happy Mother's Day

to all of you!

I will be spending my day

hosting a dinner

for some of my

milspouse lovelies,

who's Marines are also deployed.

How are you spending your day?

Sharing

What else is there to say?

You.......

I have found it interesting lately,

that we

ALL

think the same things

BUT

only some of us actually speak of it.

Here are some examples:

1. You hate that AFTER you take a shower,

you then get the sudden urge to poop?

2. Whenever you take off your underwear,

they ALWAYS land crusty side up.

3. Sometimes when you sneeze (as we get older *cough *cough) you sometimes tinkle in your undies.

4. You smell your own farts,

and feel complete satisfaction whey they stink like a rotten egg.

5. You see how long your hair will last before it gets so grease that it looks like lard on top of your head,

before you have to wash it.

6. You like to flick your boogers across the room and laugh when you hear it hit someone or something.

7. When your driving down the road,

and a bird is sitting right where your tire wheels go,

you secretly wish that it wouldn't move so you could "accidently" hit it.

8. When the gum that your chewing in your mouth gets old and un-flavorful,

you imagine yourself spitting it in someones hair.

9. When someone is getting on your nerves,

you imagine slamming their head against the wall.

10. When your outside wearing sunglasses and are engaged in a conversation with someone and your bored with listening to them,

you keep your head straight,

but your eyes are moving to look at other things going on in the distance.

11. You really enjoy scarring the crap out of your kids to the point that they cry.

12. You pee in the pool and PRAY that the water doesn't turn green.

Let's see....

what did I leave out?

I would love to hear some of your idea's of what we

ALL

think about,

but are too nervous to say yourself.

You can just use me as the

"you"

part.

I'm pretty open about anything....so please....speak your mind.

And the winner is.......

Thanks to all my

Avatarian lovers

who entered to own their own personal copy of their homeland

AVATAR.

And now.....

with no further aAaAa-DoOoOo

THE WINNER IS.......

Life as a Sailor's Girl
Congrats
Mrs. Gambizzle

Email me your mailing info so you will receive your prize.

Would like like to know what my answer would be?

If I could get away with doing anything without being caught doing it, I would....
put the HOTTEST spiciest-lava fire engine red sauce I could find, and put it in the mouth of trash talkers.
Then I would pick my nose and put my crusty boogers in their mouth, and then fart in their face, and then draw all over their face with a permanent marker.

Update

UPDATE:

When my chickens woke up this morning,

all the red spots on their heads were

G.O.N.E.

Mysterious red spots

WTC

are these mysterious red spots on my kids heads?

They cover,

and when I say cover,

I mean

COoOoOVER

their heads.

These pictures do

NOT

at all do the

mystery red spots justice.

This is the top of Emma-Kay's head and another view.

This is Ian's forehead and the top of his scalp.

and the top of his head.

And here are some spots on Evan's head.

Isabel is the only one that doesn't have them.

well

besides me of course.

Ian has them the worst?

Do you have any idea what these mystery red spots are from?

I did find a very small tick on Emma-Kay's head this afternoon

BUT

I am certain that the small little itty bitty tick could not have made all those red spots

especially

since Ian and Evan both have them.

What are your thoughts?

Spitball is 8mths

Wow...

I can NOT believe that my Spitball is 8mths old today!

Where has the time gone?

Here is the proof of why I call him

Spitball.

The evidence is ALL over shirt.He says,

"momma" and "dadda" all the time now.
He went to the beach for the first time
last weekend while his Grandma Mary was here visiting.
Do you know what his bIgGeSt accomplishment is
in his young life of 8 mths?
Crawling!!!!!

Doesn't this picture look weird with him laying on his feet that way?

He is also starting to try and pull himself up to a standing position.
I said....starting.
He does have alot of weight packed onto his body.
He's like a sumo!

Oh...and here is the down fall.
He only takes 1 nap during the day.
THAT'S IT PEOPLE!!!!
Why does he do this to me?
I have no clue?

Happy 8mth Birthday Spitball.
