I went blog wild!!

I went blog wild today!!! Scroll down there's a bunch!! If you can't see the pics, remember to click on them and they will magically grow!!

Today we went to the ZOO!


Today S and I joined K and her kids and some other ladies and toddlers for a trip to the zoo. We had a great time. S did so well in his stroller (which he normally screams in)!! I was so proud of him! We had a great time and saw lots of great animals. I stopped at he store this morning after I got off work and bought us lunchables so that I wouldn't have to spend more money than absolutely necessary there. Well, S thought otherwise and wouldn't eat his lunchable. Me thinking that he needs to eat went and spent $7 on a kids meal(can you believe it, 4 chicken nuggets, some tator tots, crackers and a pop) and he wasn't interested in it at all either. Oh well I guess. All in all we had a great time checking out the animals and spending time with cousins and friends!

What do you get when you are the only one home and mom decides to make a cake?




Splish Splash...


S's first Bubble bath. He thought it was a hoot!! The dog, didn't like it so much...she barked at him the whole time he was in there!! Silly Silly dog!!

Corn anyone!!?



S's new favorite food is corn-on-the-cob!! If he sees it before anything else being served, he will not eat any other food!!! What a silly silly boy!! But can you really blame him? Fresh picked corn, what more could you ask for???

First Day of School!!


Sept. 2nd was the first day of school for C, Jh and Jn. Centered into the 5th grade and Jh and Jn into the 1st grade. They are excited about the school year. Now if I can somehow get it through the boys's heads that they can't move around on the bus while it is moving we'd be doing good!!! Somehow we didn't manage a picture of Sh's first day going into 7th grade, probably because I don't get up and see them off and she doesn't come downstairs to tell me goodbye!!!

Labor Day Weekend....

was a washout!! We had our friends over Sunday...we were gonna pitch a tent in the backyard and sleep outside with the kids. We went and bought a fire pit and started the fire. Got the weinies roasted and then it started to downpour. We finished our dinner inside and the kids pitched tents in the basement and Dan and Shaye went home. Sunday morning we were up bright and early, Dan and Shaye came back over at 9:00am for breakfast. We made pancakes, eggs and bacon. The kids thought it was a blast. After a couple of hours of girl shopping on Labor day, we came back for lunch and then went and shopped some more and then came back and got dinner started. BBQ'd some yummy steaks, had corn on the cob, baked potatoes and rolls. Of course Labor Day the weather was just the perfect weather for homemade ice cream!! All in all we had a great time!!!

A new hairdo- a couple weeks old!!

I jokingly told DH I was going to chop my hair off when we went to the coast for our anniversary, expecting him to say "yah right", but instead ok...I have some styles I like. So, after about a week of searching I finally went and and chopped it off. I figure I chopped at least 10" off, maybe more, but I LOVE how it turned out. See for yourself my before and after! The long hair is from when I got it cut and colored in April. Now I just need to dye it. I have Black...but gotta find somebody to do it for me!!!
