Happy Birthday Nancy and Nanette!






Today is my Motherinlaw and sisterinlaws day of birth. This blogs to you ladies!
Let me tell you about Nan(ette)....
1. she has the funniest sense of humor. she loves to laugh and play jokes on people(like touching you with an iron that is not plugged in. you jump every time)
2. THE BEST COOK. she enjoys cooking gourmet style. and i have been fortunate enough to reap the benefits.
3. she is so kind to everyone. she never speaks unkindly of others.
4. her home is like a b&b. she has a basket in her guestroom with anything you could need. she cooks her tasty meals and plans a fun filled day for you and your kids.
5. I chose that picture of her with her son cuz it totally reminds me of her. she is an amazing mother. she is so loving, patient and seeks perfection when it comes to her family/kids. they are lucky to have such a great mom
6. i know you don't think so, but you are the most organized person i know. in the best way. it is an inspiration for me.
Nan you have been a good friend to me. i am blessed to have you in my family. thanks for all you do. now onto Nancy.....


What can i say about this lady....
1. she is an inspiration as a mom. just look at how awesome her son is. actually all of her kids. they are so close to her. 
2. she always becomes the life of the party, especially at family functions(see above picture) she loves to make others laugh.
3. we share a love of people magazine. 
4. i love when she tells me a story about anything, she tells you every little detail. down to what they are wearing.
5. she is such a great grandma. she unselfishly watched max for me, once a week, when i had to go back to work, i will never forget that.
6. she has given me great advice. like how to bake a potato, what to do with sick kids and how to make a bud vase for a wedding.
thank you for all that you have done for us. (especially when i'm sick and pregnant.) i really lucked out in the inlaw department.

absolute torture






Harper Has been sick this week. The first half he had HIGH fevers.(104.5!!) The second half he had irritable bowel syndrome(extremely irritable). I decided I liked the fever half better. He turned 10 months on the 5th, so i tried taking his 10 month picture. Bad Idea. He was P.O'd. I figure I would still post a couple for some laughs. But I'm gonna redo them this week.  The only time he would stop crying is when Scott fed him some frozen yogurt(homemade I might add). I think this is the first time he hasn't smiled for the camera.

A while back I posted what my idea of fun was, do you remember? A hot bath and People magazine(cha-ching). Well last night while I was having fun I came across this(in Us magazine). Can you make out the blurry figures on Mr. Blacks shirt?
(which can be purchased at KidRobot) Pretty cool huh?

Ollism 11


            As soon as my boys get into my car they automatically say
"canwewatchamovie , canwewatchamovie". It drives me NUTS! Today on the way to school
(4 minute drive) Ollie asks if he can watch a movie, I say no...........
Ollie- Mom, Heavenly Father put us on this earth so we can watch movies EVERY....
 SINGLE...... DAY!
Mom- Oh.... I did not know this
Ollie- And Heavenly Father is the boss of EVERYONE! So..... turn... on .... the... MOVIE!
Mom- No Ollie
Ollie- (fist shaking in the air)Mom, your gonna pay for this!

First day of School





Tuesday was the first Day of school for Max and Ollie. Max is now a second grader. So far he likes his teacher. He is still trying to find a buddy on the playground that will play pokeman diamond pearl. I don't know if this is a real game or one he made up. Ollie is in the senior class at Tiny tots. There are only 4 boys in his class. The rest is all girls. Which is fine by him. He says he likes having is girlfriends as long as they do whatever he wants. Should that statement alarm me? Really, should I be scared?

Rent it!


I actually rented a movie the other day. For some reason I have gotten lazy with my renting(i know i know netflix, duh). Scott was working late and rather then spending the evening alone i spent it with The son of Rambow. I LOVED this movie!!! Growing up, my brother and I always played Rambo. He always was Rambo and I was Ranbow's crazy sister. We would grab moms steak knives and plow are way through the creek bed.(Sorry Mom) Do yourself a favor and RENT THIS NOW! (then call me up so we can chat about)
