WARNING TO ALL MOM'S:

Kids are not always the most tactful of gods creature's. So tonight I was in the kitchen cooking dinner and slade came running in yelling "MOM MOM YOU HAVE TO COME SEE THIS"

Me: "What do I have to come see?" 

Slade: " You have to order this come see hurry."

Me : " What do I have to order?"

Slade: "This exercise thing for men and women."

So I walk into the bed room where he excitedly pointed to the T.V. And loudly proclaimed to the whole family "Look mom it's the it's a belly exerciser . You know so you can have a skinny belly and not a fat one!" So I looked at him and asked do you really think mommy is so fat that I need that? His reply was........ " Well yes look at your belly!" Now I really don't have a problem with how I look. Sure everyone can find something they want to change about themselves but I feel like life is to short and hard enough to be down on myself for how I look. I just try to look the best I can whenever I can! Obviously slade feels different but he's 5 in 2 days what do you expect. Now Rachel on the other hand was VERY offended by slade's comment. Latter she announced "Mom why aren't you offended by what slade said ? He didn't even say it to me and I was OFFENDED! So this is the point I had to explain I love slade and it was funny not rude.

Well she didn't reply for a few minutes then she sat there and said " Mom you must be christ like and I am not cause I would have beat his butt!" 

Ohh a day in the life of a mother!

You gotta love those little faces!

 

So today I am trying to get my house cleaned so it will be clean this weekend when I get home.

We are going on the first 4-wheeling trip of the season. I am so excited! The kids are soooo excited. We cant wait (If you cant tell)!  When you are a stay at home mom it does not take a whole lot to get you excited. Any chance to get out of the house and not have to cook or clean I am all about it.  

Update! Well saturday was successful. Steven spent most of saturday working on the kids swing set.  I spent most of the day working on a bag for enrichment night.  So below are photos of the swing set thus far. Steven is doing an awesome job.

I cant wait to see it finished!

Good evening all! I am sitting at my computer eating a Andes Chocolate YUMMY!!!!!

So we went tonight and got the wood to build the kids a big swing set. You know the ones that usually cost $1000.00 or more. We are feeling brave and cheap. We did not have that much so we decided to build one for 1/4 the price. Now I will keep you updated on the progress of this newest adventure. The boys are so looking forward to the club house and the rock climbing wall ( cross your fingers ).

Little Ty watching t.v. with mom and dad!

Good afternoon everyone! So todays lesson "Don't forget your bread raising in the oven". This is what happens when you put bread in and start playing with your Cricket. I was cutting some vinyl and forgot about my bread BUT don't despair! I punched it down let it re-raise baked it and yes it was wonderful.

I want to take the opportunity to thank all of you who gave me sympathy with my sunburn. I think we can all feel the pain of others sun burns. Yes it was my own fault but none the less it is nice that people sympathize with me being as my husband laughed at me. LOL LOL LOL

I HURT SO BAD ! My shirt feels like sandpaper on my arms. Yes I rolled up my sleeves and now I am paying for it!

So today was GORGEOUS! We spent all morning in front yard riding bikes and I was smart enough to put sun block all over the boys. Me on the other hand I put it on my face but not my arm's soooo yes I am BURNED. Well so I am posting a photo of slade and his ninja mask he made.

I was making strawberry jam and slade came up with scissors and that orange fabric and he wanted me to make him a ninja mask. Well I told him I was busy and he would have to wait or make one himself sooo he decided to make one. This is the results. It was so hard not to laugh but how cute is that!

This was his ninja pose he did for me.

So this weekend we celebrated Hunters birthday. Every time we asked him what he wanted to do for his b-day all he would ever say is "go to Garcias" So we went to Garcias he loves it when they sing to you there and give you free desert. The kid never asks for anything so I jumped on this one and we all had a blast.

Here are a few photo's of the fun!

Sorry the other with rachel wont upload.

Hello all! All is well I am watching " Dancing with the stars'. I finished the Vampire academy series today "Loved it too" I cant wait for the next one to come out.  Now I am going to evaluate myself for a moment call it therapy or weird I don't know. Anyway I really am going crazy over my house lately. I can never get it clean and keep it that way. I am going to lose my mind if it doesn't stay clean for a week straight WITHOUT me cleaning myself to death! OHH if only lol. 

So my poor sweet husband has to go get his wisdom teeth pulled this friday. He is in soooo much pain right now but mostly at night. I have been trying to get him to do it for ohhh about a year now. I hope all goes well. This is random but slade wastes soooo much tape yes I said tape clear tape. He uses it on everything! I have to hide it or he will use it ALL.

Well those are my random thoughts. Thanks for looking!

Well Hello everyone! Yes I am still out here. We are on spring break but there is no break around here in fact a little more cleaning and alot more cooking. Oh well. :)

So this is Ty smiling yes I said smiling I told him smile handsome for me and this is what he came up with. This is what he played with for 2 hours the other day. A line of Star bursts. Although his pink ones kept disappearing every time he turned around ( I am the guilty one there ). As I sat and watched him play with these I couldn't help but think "wouldn't life be so much nicer if more people were happy with the small things in life rather than always needing bigger and better". Yes that was my deep thinking for the day. One little boy was simply happy with a line of star bursts his Knight could battle. We have so much we could learn from our kids if only took a moment to sit and watch them play Knights and Star bursts!

This is a tag janice tagged me on.

You have to post a black and white photo and put the saying below with it. I didn't have a black and white but I have alot of sepia. I love it!

So slade decided to have a tea party for lunch. He wanted to make the food so he made butter sandwiches and popcorn. They had the best time! I wish I would have had more time to blog this week but I'm afraid I have not had 2 min to breath let alone get on my computer. :) These two keep me laughing thats for sure!
