Mom to the Rescue

yesterday mikey ran into my room crying. I turn to look at him and he's got a large pair of pliers laying on his head. After further inspection I came to realize that th reason why he was crying was he had closed the pliers on some of his hair and couldn't get them to open again. He was pretty histaric, "MoM! pleAsE HElp! mOM!" So I opened the pliers and kissed his head where they had been. Then with tears in his eyes, mikey looks at me and says, "dant cho...(snif)...Much"

Playing outside

sorry most of these are so far away. But little boys are kinda hard to catch. I've only got digital zoom on my camera and that just makes the pictures look grainy.

These are the same day the F18 was flying over our apartment. The airshow was that day and we had a whole lot of jets fly over our house.




I admit...it was a lot more fun last year when we actually bought tickets and got a babysitter...but we didn't spend any money having them fly over our house so that was okay too.I think gavin was the only one who didn't get scared when the jets flew by. He was just chilaxin in the sunshine.


Sunday really was the perfect day (aparently something is funny cause Gavin just made the CUTEST laugh...and he's sleeping in the swing. Silly boy) There was a slight breeze and it wasn't even hot. It was honestly PERFECT.
Well minus one thing. Mike was at work. Yep he got called in on a sunday. That always stinks. And it was last minute too so he just had to take the car and leave. Sad day.
You know what else stinks? You see that fun little slide? Well every time we want to get it out...we have to hoist it over our "porch" railing. And we ALWAYS have to put it back when were done...unless we want the neighbor kids to ruin it.
I can't wait to see where we'll be when mike graduates. I'm so ready to get into a house.

F18 in my Backyard

Ok so it doesn't look very impresive...but if you zoom in on that circle you can see the F18 and a little airplane flying side by side. In real life they looked a WHOLE lot closer than on the picture. And boy were they loud. The boys and I were playing outside and they flew over our house. And I thought they got scared when I turned on the vacuum HA! You shoulda seen their faces! (Am I cruel cause I thought it was funny?)

New Blog element

Ok everyone. I have added a new element to my blog. Please take note as it may help you. These are the coolest websites I've ever stumbled upon. If you're bored take some time and look through them. They're pretty cool. There is stuff from sharing files privately to DIY projects that ANYONE could do and still make it look good. Enjoy! I'll be adding things periodically to the list...and modifying it. (speaking of modifying...if you look at one site....look at the one that says modify your electronics. You can turn an old game controller into an I pod!)

Home Decor

Well I've been looking online for something I could do for mike for his birthday this year. last year we went to the Aviation Expo...but that just so happens to be today and tomorrow...and well...we didn't get tickets. It was a surprise last year for him, so now I've got to do something else. Anyhow...I have a few ideas but I thought I'd check on the internet. And this is one of the coolest things I've stumbled across yet!

They have home decor made out of old Airplane parts! Some of the stuff is just "plane" but a lot of it is kinda cool looking. They have a desk made out of a bomber wing. And that is so stinkin cool! Anyhow I Thought it was neat.

Hee hee I'm sneaky!

So last night I couldn't sleep. I didn't have any energy...my eyes just didn't want to close. So instead of just laying there I decided to get up and do something. I got up and got a drink...and saw the markers laying on the counter. Then guess what I decided to do. I wrote a message on the shower wall! I'm so clever! That way when Mike got up in the morning to shower..he would know his wife loved him. He said it made his day the best! He also said that I wrote it on the one wall he doesn't look at. He saw it in the middle of his shower and said it scared him. hehehe silly hubbie.

my kind of day

Saturday I was going to post...but I didn't so I'll tell you my story now. When I get fed up...I go and drink a glass of chocolate milk. Only on Saturday I could have drank a whole gallon of chocolate milk. The boys were getting into everything...including their diapers (ICK!!!). So needless to say every time I'd get started cleaning up one of their messes...they'd make another one. I had a glass of chocolate milk that I had made and only drank 1/2 of it cause I got distracted cause the boys had made another mess...and I never got around to drinking it. Then Mike got home and we talk for a while. I had just put the boys in bed. Then as Mike is talking to me I look over at the table...my glass of chocolate milk. I had forgotten. Well it was still good....and I certinaly didn't want it to go bad. So I started chugging what was left. As I'm drinking Mike decides to ask me to drive to our shared garden...by myself...and go cut some basil and make him so tomato basil pasta. I had just finally gotten the house to be quiet and he wanted me to go make him some PASTA! I turn around and say...rather loudly, "Do you KNOW what my day has been like!" And my oh so sensitive husband....began to laugh. "You have the biggest chocolate milk mustache I have ever seen!" Well that got me giggling and the rest of the day was so much better. I love my husband he always finds a way to make me feel better. Today it just happened to be chocolate milk.

Hence the outlandishly huge mustache picture.
