    Rainbow of Fruit Flavors

    Drew has a paint set with all sorts of paint, paint brushes, paint sponges, and an apron. Undoubtedly, this was a gift from a loving grandparent :-). He painted with it tonight. I helped him clean it up, but I know I will be seeing colors for weeks everywhere! My house can now be called the house of Rainbow of fruit flavors since it will be tracked from one end to the other!

    Conversation with a 7 year old

    Drew was looking at our mice and said wow look at that guy! He’s fat! I said, yah! I hope he’s not pregnant! Drew said, well if he’s pregnant we’ve gotta tell some body cause I didn’t think THAT was supposed to happen! The conversation went on, but I was laughing so hard in my head, I had to come type it!

    Words…

    Alex is growing a vocabulary slowly but surely! He says “uh-oh!” and it is so cute. Also when I change his diaper I always say “Eyew, stinky” and I wave my hand in front of my face. So now he says, ” Oooooo, tinkty” and waves his hand. It is so funny! I need a video of it! He’s also gotten real good at copying what you say when you don’t even think he’s going to, which could be scary! haha

    Why do I blog?

    I’ve been asked by people who don’t blog, don’t read blogs, etc…Why do I blog? Well, I started out bloggin’ to keep track of things going on in my life, kind of like a journal. Than, I just got where I write about things bothering me or crazy things I see or hear. I like to plug good links and good blogs. I use it now kind of for a free for all! I also love reading blogs! I’m so addicted to it! LOL! I don’t know why except that I feel like they’re my ‘friends’. People I can care…

    A Mouse in the House…

    I forgot to tell ya yesterday that yesterday morning when I got up and went into the bathroom, I was holding my breath. Knowing that a mouse might be on one of the sticky traps, I was scared. I turned the light on and my heart sunk when I saw the poor little mouse on the trap. I thought to myself, “well, we gotcha!” I stood there for awhile looking at it. She was starting to move. ICK! It made me so sad. I couldn’t bring myself to use the bathroom in there, so I went upstairs. After I got…

    Furry Friends

    Yesterday Rob got home and asked me if I got his email. I said no. He said well I have a surprise for you. I asked “a good one or a bad one?” He said bad! So we go into the bedroom and he said open up the bottom drawer of the armoir. He said “open it up and and jump back”. So I did. When I opened the bottom drawer, there was a bunch of torn up tissue in the midst of Rob’s clothing. He told me to close it back. He said that morning, he heard scurrying around…

    What a Weekend!!

    Wow! What a weekend! Friday we went to the Wreck Tech Parade and Pep Rally. It was fun and I took lots of pictures. I’ve posted some below! You can go here and see lots more! After the parade we cleaned the house and I wore myself plum out! The house hadn’t had a real good cleaning in quite awhile, especially the boys rooms! EEeessshhh! Saturday morning we finished cleaning and did about 8 loads of wash! Rob’s family (Rob’s Mom, step dad, sister, brother-in-law, brother, and adopted brother and sister) got here about noon, I think. We then built…

    I’m From…

    I found this from CJ’s Site. Thought I do it… I am from peanut butter, from Bounce Laundry Softner and Legos. I am from the 2 story house, loving, funny, cheesy sausage balls. I am from the fern, hibiscus, honey, and the hot humid air. I am from movie watching and short-tempered, from Rob and Drew and Alex. I am from the traveler and hard-working. From “Did you do your homework?” and “Did you clean behind your ears?”. I am from christian, listening and talking to the Lord each day. I’m from Fort Worth, Tx and Ireland, Chili and bacon…
