Sorry

Just a quick sorry that there have been no updates yet this week, but we have been pretty boring around here. Although tonight is Spencer's school carnival. So I will be taking some pictures of that and tomorrow there should be a new post before the day is over......I promise!

Tagged again....

Man I need to learn to run faster cause I keep getting tagged. Plus maybe we need some principle from some random school to outlaw tag on our blog playground. I really would hate for someone to get hurt or pushed down......ya know. OK....OK......fine I'm it, here it goes.

My DEAR friend Pauline has tagged me so here goes.

The rules: Once you have been tagged, you write a post with 10 weird, random things, facts, habits, or goals about yourself. Then choose a blog to be tagged, and include why you chose it. Don’t forget to leave a comment for the next blogger ("you're it, read my blog for details"). You can’t tag the person who tagged you. Since you can’t tag me back, let me know when you've posted your blog so I can see your 10 things.

1. I'm sitting here watching Jon & Kate Plus 8 laughing and I'm thanking the Lord that it is them and not me...phew!

2. I didn't eat any "real" dinner tonight except for a small bag of Chili and Cheese Fritos....Oy Vay I'm never going to lose this weight.

3. I wear my PJ's to take Spencer to school just about every morning. I also am doing good if I even get my hair combed.

4. I hate the sound of grinding teeth, and Cooper has just learned how to do that and it is driving me crazy.

5. I have red and blond highlights in my hair.

6. The most disgusting food ever is liver. I can almost make myself puke just thinking about eating it. I can't even talk to my mom if she is cooking it for my dad and I can hear it frying over the phone. OK enough I'm starting to get sick just typing this.

7. I hate, hate, hate having dry skin. The boys hate, hate, hate lotion. Where did they get that from? TTTIIIIMMM!!!!(terrible roll model)

8. I think I said this before somewhere but it deserves to be repeated. I'm scared of bumper cars. Bad childhood experience.

9. I really wish I had a bigger house and more money and I would maybe try one more time for a girl. My luck though I would be a Mom to 4 boys.

10. As soon as I'm done BFing I'm so going all out for weight loss, whatever it takes, cause I want to go meet my friend Pauline........its a deal I have going with Tim.

Ok I'm going to tag Kari-Anne. This is one amazing women. She has the most beautiful family, and she is also a foster parent, a VERY thankless job if you ask me. She is also very positive and upbeat person. Oh and takes beautiful pictures as well.

Busy Saturday

Taking a bath with Cam and his Dinos

Cameron has really gotten into his dinosaurs lately. As many of you know Spencer is the resident dino expert in this house, but it looks like Cameron is hot on his heals for that title. Here is a video of him in the bath tub playing with his dinos. (Note him trying to make sure I don't get any video of his private area. He made sure that I knew that was not suppose to happen before I starrted taping. What a clown.)

Tub time with Cam

New Cameronism

Well Cameron was helping my Dad replace some screens in a few of our windows. They were sitting out on the front step fixing a frame of one of the windows when all of a sudden Cameron got up and ran full force across the yard to scare a robin from the grass, he then shouted, "and stay out of my yard!". When he came back my Dad asked him, "what did you go and do that for?". His reply was, " I didn't like the way that bird was struttin' across my lawn like that".

Here he is giving Papa a helping hand with the screens...

Lots of working outside

Well while Tim was gone all last week the boys, my Dad and I took on some projects in the yard. First and for most we cut those God awful juniper bushes out of our front yard. Man those things are just nasty things to deal with. My forearms have scratches and a rash to prove it. I totally forgot to take a before picture, but I do have one of them covered in snow from earlier this winter.
Photobucket As you can see they were totally blocking our entrance to our front door. So with a lot of hard work like Cameron is doing in this picture...

And after a few hours and a whole truck load later....


Photobucket This is the new and improved front walkway. Oh never mind Cameron crying in his timeout on the stairs, who knows what he did to get there, it is to hard to remember what each of his timeouts are about since it is a regular occurance in our house.

Kiicking ball and No, No.....

Cooper has started kicking his ball now, and he loves to tell me No, No........

(Oh and one more thing as I was looking through my posts I realized I take very little video of Spencer and Cameron, So I promise I will try to get better about that.)

Cooper No, No
