I See You...

I'm cheating-This picture is from Sunday. I was getting my coffee Sunday am, looked out the back window and saw these eyes popping up thru the snow. Some time ago, our tree face fell apart. And because I am so on top of things (NOT) they stayed right where they landed. All nestled next to tree. Funny thing? The bottom half of the face is still on the tree-See Below lol

I Wonder Where She Gets It From???

Liv was stalling getting in the tub (she used to love the tub till she pooped in it, now she wants nothing to do with it) so she said she had to go pee. She sat there for a minute, then said, "Mommy, Book?" I handed her my Woman's Day (yes, I do have somewhat normal magazines in there LOL) and she threw it on the floor and said, "NO! BOOK!" and pointed to my Us Weekly. I gave it to her and she happily sat there "reading" it for a couple of minutes LOL. I say I wonder where she gets it from, but I know it's from ME (well, Hank does it too, but he somehow gets left alone when he's in the potty) Its the only place in the house that I get some kind of peace, even if it's only while I'm going potty. And it's only peaceful if I leave the door open. As soon as I shut the door, they swarm on it like I'm doing something secretive. You mothers out there can relate. NEVER SHUT THE BATHROOM DOOR. It's an open invitation to mischief and everything else in between.

The New Donnie And Marie?? (Videos)

Ok, Jake had a 2 hr delay this am (hence all the toys on the floor lol) He and Liv decided to make some music. Jake, for some reason, decided to start singing about his time off from Xmas vacation, when he had to go back to school, having his 2 hr delay (because the roads were slick)...LOL...

And Liv has always been into music. And, of course, she's wearing a hat-Shocking, I know lol

Snow Day!!!

Ok, I OD'ed on pictures...What can I say?? I had to post them because so many turned out cute. This was actually Liv's first time playing in the snow! Everytime it's snowed, she's been sick, I've been sick, etc, so we've never gone out. She DID NOT want to come in. Most of her laughing pics was her laughing her head off at some antic Jake was doing (I know, you're all shocked!) I think Jake is just thrilled to do anything to make her giggle =)

Jake the Didj Master

Jake, chilling on the couch, playing his Didj. He's thrilled that I finally loaded the program on my computer so he could play Jet Pack Heros. He got to create a bunch of didjis today, too (Avatars). He hasn't put it down since! The cool thing about this is, I can load his spelling words for the week, math problems, things like that, so when he's playing, he's learning what he actually NEEDS to learn in school. I love Leapster =)
I have to add, because I just noticed it in the pictures, I CAN NOT stand that his socks are too big. You say, get a smaller size? Yep, can't do that. They are TOO SMALL! No matter what brand I buy-It kills me! SO, I guess I, I mean, HE will just suffer till his feet grow alittle more (even though the kid is already wearing a size 3!!)

Friday's Post - Jo Jo The Guardian...

Of Murray from the Wiggles, at least. I went to move it and she looked at me like, "Hey! I was sleeping with that!" LOL

The New "Action Jackson"




Jake is doing basketball thru Parks N Rec. He's having a great time so far, though my poor child is uncoordinated like his mother. Funny thing? He's right handed but he dribbles much better with his left! This last shot was him jumping at the guy and screaming "DEFENSE" He takes his screaming very serious LOL
