Our Feathered Friend


On our walk to the mailbox this evening, we noticed a new addition to our lemon tree.
We can't wait to take a peek when the little ones hatch!

Lost Camera.... Answers to the name "cheese"

GOSH DARN IT!!!!

I can't find my camera. (small point and shoot)

This is the 2nd time in the last two weeks that I've lost that thing.

Is it that my house is that messy???

Or is it that I'm that ditsy???

This is making me crazy. Seriously crazy.

Here it is, 10 o'clock at night, I am franticly looking for my camera.
The baby is hungry.....
All my tylenol was recalled,  and we're teething....
and that darn missing camera is making me mad.


UPDATE:  This might sound kinda dumb.... it was in my purse. Now to explain, I don't really use my purse. I use a computer bag for work and a diaper bag the rest of the time. Too many bags!!!

Super 4

We celebrated Carter’s 4th Birthday this past Saturday. All the kids had a blast as they earned their superhero costumes.

First was a training course, that earned them their capes.

Then the villain (Adam) came out with bombs (black balloons), and I instructed the kids to diffuse (pop them). That earned the masks.

Then the villain showed back up and the kids sprayed him with their super webs (silly string).  They were then announced as official superheros.

Then we had cake and ice cream. Lots of it.

Wow, good thing birthdays are only once a year. 

By they way, sorry Adam. I owe you.

Oh Yeah, I Can Find Bluebonnets Too!

255

So, growing up in Texas, I loved bluebonnets. Being transplants to Texas, my mom never did the field of flowers photo thing.  People from Iowa don’t put their kids in a corn field to take pics…… at least none that I know of.

Recently I have seen way too many adorable bluebonnet pictures. Like these. And yes, I am jealous.

So even living in Arizona, I decided if I tried hard enough, I could make it happen. Low and behold, it did happen. Please disregard the Wal-Mart background.

Three Weeks in One

This week has been super crazy for me. I was not only planning and prepping for my son's birthday, but trying to blog hop at the UBP, and was feeling overwhelmed at work. To top it off, I woke up this morning with a migraine.

I know, I know.  I probably caused my migraine from being stressed. I just want to do it all and do it well. I'm sure you can understand that.

So, I'm a little unprepared in the blog post department. So here's my last minute post.....

Last night I finished sewing the capes for Carter's B-Day party. (All 20 of them.)


Cut out a bunch of foam masks.


I also finished carter's cape.


He tried it out.


And tried it out some more.



Cape: Carter Approved!!

My Big News...... Drumroll Please.....

I bought my very own domain.

It is: http://www.timeoutformom.com/

I haven't started to set it up yet. I am a little intimidated. I called my sister to tell her, and her response was... "how do you do that?" to which I replied "I have no idea!"

I am looking for any advice from others that have set up their own .coms. If you have a bit of advice, email me and I will be forever grateful!

So, there it is... my big announcement! Hopefully you aren't disappointed!
