Friday-Snowy Pics!

I just thought these pics were cool lol

This Is What I Mean When I Say Jo Will Take Just About Anything...

We'd just made it into the house after picking Jake up (Liv hadn't even taken her jacket off!) when Liv decided to "decorate" Jo Jo with Legos. Poor Jo Jo...She just sits there and takes it..

SAVE ME MOMMY!!!!

When Dogs Attack...

Let me start off by saying, Jo Jo is a pretty mellow dog by trade. She takes so much from both kids (Liv especially-Livvie's taken to pulling her tail since Jo Jo got her hair cut because it's soft lol) I'm pretty sure if you clocked the amount of hours Jo lays around and just sleeps, it's be in the 2os lol. That being said, she's easily wound up. We try and get her moving once a day at least. She likes to get wound up and run laps in the house. If she gets really crazy, we can get her to steal Jake's socks right off his feet, which is quite amusing. Jake used to get pissed when Jo did it, chasing her and yelling. Now he finds it amusing.

Jo Jo going after her prize...

Give me that sock, NOW you little turd, or I'll bite your toes off!

Ahh, my sweet prize-A stinky Jake sock. Life is good...

Tuesday-Frost on the grass...

I took the dog out the other day (Yes, I'm cheating again!) and saw the frost. Decided to lay down on the front porch and take this picture...If you click on it to make it bigger, and look at that single blade of green grass, you can see a dew drop on it-Pretty cool!!

Monday-The Impossible Picture To Snap-Attitude

Seriously, out of all the pictures I've ever tried to capture, attitude is the hardest. I swear to you, both of my children had it in for me from the moment they were picked up. I think Liv was hatching a plan when I picked her up from the sitters (maybe her screaming "BOOOOOOOOOOOK MAMMMMMMMA" over and over meant something else??) And once Jake got in the car, I swear their eyes met, and that was the end of it. If one wasn't giving attitude, the other was. It was so bad, it forced me to the gym to do 5 miles on the eliptical. Oh, don't be so proud of my accomplishments-I've eaten 3, yes 3, bags of coconut hershey's kisses in the past week, no lie. They are the devil, I am convinced *sigh* (the kisses, not the kids LOL) So, I think it's going to take more than 5 miles on the eliptical to get rid of all the extra fat I've poured into my body in the past week.
Here's hoping for a better day today!

Sunday-Different Ways to Wear a Onesies, by Jake Bulloss

So, out of all the onesies Liv has, Hank managed to find the one that doesn't fit. So, instead of searching out one that does, he shoved her into the one that didn't fit (but didn't snap it lol) SO, when I got off the treadmill, I fixed the situation. Hank asked what I should do with it, and I said to just toss it. Well, a couple minutes later, Jake's giggling as he's trying on Liv's old onesies...

Let's see...You can wear it as a half shirt (hello 1985)

You can wear it as a mask (Jake said he was some character from Star Wars, but I can not remember which one he said lol)

Or, you can wear it as shorts...

Saturday-The Forgotten Valentine's Present Post

So, for Valentine's Day, Jake and I made these: They're heart birdseed biscuits. The instructions call for using a cookie cutter to make the shape, but I was at the Dollar Tree and bought heart shaped cupcake holders-worked out great! If you want to make these yourself, here's the link:
