Seriously, What's WRONG with my Children??


What is the big thing about picking their noses??? She was talking on her play phone and I decided I'd take a picture, then she started picking her nose. I figured heck, if I have a pic of Jake picking his nose on here, I might as well add her-He can't be the loner picker, I suppose...This just goes to prove it's not just boys (though, I'm pretty sure Liv picked it up from him LOL)

Friday-Jake B, Student of the Week!

Jake got to be student of the week this week! The funny thing is, he was supposed to be Student of the Week weeks ago, but due to illness, he never got a chance. The week he was supposed to be, he was out for 3 day w/a bad cough-went to school for 2 days, that Friday he was dx with pneumonia. Missed the whole following week because of it, then the next week was Spring Break. Finally, SUCCESS!

Thursday-First Day Of T-Ball!


So Tball season is among us again! In true Central Oregon Spring fashion, it rained, hailed, and the wind was blowing so much it forced Liv and I to watch from the car (with the heat on LOL) Poor Jake is about 1/2 head taller than everyone else. Boy, he can sure hit! My goodness that boy has a swing on him! Now, if we can just get everything else going, we'd be great (ie, keeping him in his own spot instead of running after EVERY ball, even when not in his territory, then fighting the little kids for it lol) He'll be an amazing ball player when he gets older if he keeps it up!

Wednesday - The Super Duper Pooper Stance

Ok, so Olivia REFUSES to potty train. She pooped on the potty for about a week, then decided no way, this sucks-no amount of candy corn or M & Ms is worth this crap (pardon the pun). We all know when Liv is pooping, though. She gets on her tippy toes and runs into a corner. Her favorite, as of late, is either between the wall and the hutch or under the breakfast bar, leaning on the rubbermaid drawers (as shown above) What's even funnier, is that the hutch is across from this spot, so she'll typically run, on her tippy toes, from one corner to the other, until she has some success LOL. It's actually a humorous process to watch.

Tuesday March 30th-Curly Sue





Her hair is getting so long! Stinking curls are starting to pull out alittle. I'm terrified to cut her hair for fear they'll leave all together!!

Wednesday-You're Finger's WHERE?!?!?!?

SO, I initially took a picture of Jake with his legos. He thought it was pretty cool that he built one as tall as he is, however, out of all the pics I took, only ONE he didn't have his damn finger in his nose! What the heck is up with that? Seriously man, it's G.R.O.S.S! Drives me up the wall. I've gone so far as to tell him he'll have a horrible nickname at school if he keeps it up (yeah yeah, I know-I'm already out of the running for Mother of the Year-blew that the first week in January, so no worries LOL). His teacher said he doesn't do it at school anymore. Seems as if he saves it for me. I'm so lucky! I have to say, though, it has to be a 6 yr old thing. I swear, when I go into Jake's class it seems like almost 1/2 of them have fingers somewhere where they shouldn't be-GIRLS INCLUDED, so you can't just blame it on being a boy thing lol. Girls are gross, too! :-P

Tuesday-MM MMM MMM I'm Lovin' It!



Ok, so tell me if this makes any sense...It's Tuesday @ 4:30. I'm standing in the kitchen, and I just don't have it in me to cook. I'm lazy...So what do I do? I take both kids, pack them in the car and go across town (ok, so it's really not that dramatic-It's only like 4 lights) to McDonalds, sit in the drive thru for over 10 minutes waiting for food, bring them home, unpack them out of the car, get them all plated up, etc, just to eat dinner. Seriously, what was I thinking? Apparently it was more of a "I'm craving Mickey Ds, let's go" rather than laziness, cause if I were really lazy, I would've just turned on the oven and plopped our own chicken nuggets and fries on a cookie sheet and been done with it. Eh, what's a girl to do?
