Happy Birthday Linds!

While searching for a picture for my friend Lindsey's Birthday I came across a wikihow site (http://www.wikihow.com/Toilet-Paper-a-House ) that has step by step directions on how to toilet paper a house. It made me laugh.  Oh internet how I love thee.

In a Fickle

So looking at my last post it would appear that I really want a baby. However, today i realized I'm okay with 3 for now. I actually don't really want to have any more kids right away. There's certain things that need to happen first. One being getting a larger vehicle- that is a necessity, the little ford focus is maxed out quite literally. And at the moment we're pretty focused on getting our debt paid down before we consider adding anymore. And although God is all powerful and a mini van (or something similar in size) is nothing for Him. It kind of needs to appear before He blesses us with another baby (a girl please!). So what you witnessed yesterday was me after i just finished looking at my 2007 scrapbook. I'm actually VERY content with our sweet little family of 5.

Starve a Fever...

Things you should never do when you are trying to starve off a case of "baby fever" (which is strangely similar to beaver fever).

1. Hold tiny newborn babies (especially if they are related to you and resemble your child).

2. Look through newborn pictures of your other children.

3. Get several nights in a row of uninterrupted sleep.

4. Realize that your 2nd youngest is almost ready for kindergarten.

5. Pick out names for your next child.

6. Look at baby clothes- on-line, in the store, or in the totes you have stored away in the basement (I actually haven't gone as far as dig out our stored baby clothes, i'm not that desperate).


I'm just saying..

Thanks Shelly!

For my cool new look!

Man, this child is cute. But what a curious little imp. Here's a run down of today's events.

Clean the living room to find someone (not to mention any names) had "decorated" my wall with the loveliest shades of green, blue and red crayon.

Lock (I guess barricade is a nicer word) the children in the living room so that i can take a quick shower.  Come out to Gaius pulling half of the tape off of the roll.

Leave for art. While Gaius (this one's on daddy's watch) shredded and threw a roll of toilet paper into a bucket of water I had a shirt soaking in, in the bathroom. And yes the shirt was soaking because Gaius decided to literally wipe all of the tomatoes from his dinner plate down the front of him.

Return from art with Gaius chatting away from his bedroom where I guess he refused to sleep for marc. I go up to check on him and he has every toy in reach thrown in the center of his room. Plus ripped apart his brothers bean bag chair and strewn the contents all over the place.

Now, mind you I'm all for discovery and testing the limits a little,  he is almost 2. But today was a little much. Perhaps some more childproofing is in order.

Mission Accomplished:

aaaaaaaaaah.
