Ode to Robo Wrist

Oh Robo Wrist how I miss thee.

It has only been a mere 8 hours since we departed. I am still thinking of the last time we spent together in that doctor's office. If only I knew that would be the last time I would have you on. Don't feel bad that you have been replaced. I would give anything to have you back. You gave me freedom that your replacement doesn't allow. I could type with ease, wash my own hair, and apply my self tanning lotion without hubs assistance (he's not complaining though). If I had an itch with you on, I could simply unstrap you. Now I have to carefully jam something into Ol'Blackie (name of the rebound) and pray I don't inadvertantly commit suicide. You would not forsake my wrist/hand by making it all skinny, pale, dry and flaky. The 5 weeks I spent with you will mean more to me than the 5 weeks I will spent with OB.

I will never forget you Robo Wrist!!!

***For those of you who are curious here is Robo Wrist's replacement....

Hootin' Hollerin' Hubby

He's a 29 year old full time student, stay at home daddy, and the source of alot of our laughter. His interests include playing video games, playing poker-online and in person, sports, listening to comedians, and watching movies. He is full of sarcasm and "hot air". He enjoys pushing other people's buttons just to get a rise out of them. He loves to argue about religion and politics with anyone who will put up a fight. He makes me and the kids laugh with his silly jokes and crazy antics. Even though I have heard all his jokes...many times over and over again. With all that being said it is not very often that we get to laugh AT him. Here is a little trip down memory lane in which the joke was on him!!!
I think he is enjoying that too much!!!

Miss Happy New Year!!!

Showing his true colors

Babysitter For Hire

He's a real ball buster!!!

And now my favorite!!!! I could not stop laughing for days!!



We love you honey. Life is better because you are in it! ---Your Audience/Family

Diggin' Up Bones

Here are pics of the kids at the children's museum. They both had a really good time. We spent about 2 hours there letting them play.

Brusha-Brusha-Brusha




This is my favorite picture of the day. Her pose is so adorable.


Butternut Squash anyone???




Bubby spent about 30 minutes playing in this excavation site. He loved digging and playing with the trucks. They have bones buried throughout so the kids can dig them up. I was so surprised he put this hat on and kept it on.



When we lived back home, we would go to somewhere and see several people we knew. Go to Walmart and we would see a dozen people we knew. It was kinda nice and annoying at the same time. When we moved over here, we would go somewhere and never see anyone we knew. And we would comment on how great it was to not see anyone we knew when we went out. Well that time is over. Just about anytime we go out now we see people we know. Today we saw 3 different people we knew at the museum. Someone from church, a coworker, and a different coworker's son. When that happens it reminds me of our small town back home. It makes where we live now feel more like home.

Geez that sounded redundant?!?!?

Change my mind

I sat down here with the intention to write a really great post. But I have changed my mind. Since the kiddos are sleeping and hubs is watching a movie, I may sneak away and go to Hobby Lobby and a new consignment shop I saw today.

I'll write something of interest tonight. I know...you can't wait!!!!

Until then I will leave you with a pic. This was taken last summer. Look how much he has grown!!!

In the Home Stretch

We will be back home tomorrow evening. I know hubs can't wait to see the kiddos. This trip has been great. We did lots of relaxing in Nebraska. And have spent the weekend catching up with family in Oklahoma. It has been a great time!I know mom and dad have enjoyed the kids and I know the kids enjoyed them as well. It is always great to see your parents as grandparents to your children.

(I need to find a synonym for great)

All giggles....

This picture sums up our stay here at my parents in Nebraska. The kids are having such a good time wearing Nana and Papa out. We leave tomorrow evening to Oklahoma to visit my grandparents. We will spend the weekend there and fly out on Sunday. Then it will be back to home sweet home to Daddy. I can tell Bubby has missed his daddy. He brought my phone to me the other day and said Daddy. So I called him and he talked to Hubs for about 10 minutes. Just jabbering about all kinds of stuff, mostly uncomprehendable. But it was so sweet. I have a list of projects I gonna get started on when I get back. Hubs picked up a dresser for me for $45 while I've been gone. I'm going to paint it and put it in the craft/laundry room to house all my crafts and scrapbook stuff.

Here is one more pic...can't come to Nebraska and not eat corn on the cob.

Parentisms

June-isms
"We can't go out to eat on a weeknight"
"Dena, Melissa, Troy, Shelby...Uhhh Haley"
"I get so excited when it is Monday...I get to clean"
"Store bought potato salad?????"
"I can't believe I have let that packet of toilet paper sit on the counter all afternoon"
"I don't like eating anything out if I can make it at home"
"But you don't understand"
"I can't handle all this stimulation"
"DO WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?"
"That is ludicrous"

Ward-isms
"Bull Butter"
"I love the smell of Pine Sol..reminds me that it is monday"
"What the hey?"
"There is so much stuff laying around. I don't like all these things laying around."
"Anyone want a mayonaisse sandwich?"


These modern day "Junes" and "Wards" are a dying breed. Today's crazy hustle and bustle have made these unique parents hard to come by. I am lucky to have captured both a june and ward. If you would like to see these two in action, I can easily arrange a viewing. One of the best times to view them in action is at dinner promptly on the table by six.

Grease Pt. 3

Conversation between my parents this morning moments after my dad work up.

Mom (to Dad): Did you wash you hair since yesterday? Because it looked really greasy yesterday.

Dad (peturbed): Yes

Mom: Well so-rry. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Dad: Not the wrong side...the "greasy head" side of the bed.


Stay tuned to the next post----Sayings I have heard all my life from my parents. "The good, the bad, the ugly"

Knee Deep in Corn

We got to Nebraska yesterday we are having a great time. Here are some pics.

Butt...It's what's for dinner

Would you like a side of cottage cheese with your butt roll?!?!?!


Man I love seeing celebrities in their finest. I just got the confidence I needed to get in my bathing suit and hit the pool!!!!

Nebraska Bound

The kids and I leave tomorrow for Nebraska for 10 days. Hubs is in school so he won't be joining us. I am excited to be going and I know the kids are going to have a great time. The only think I'm not excited about is the 2 hour plane ride with the kids by myself and this gimp thumb. (Which btw I see another doctor in the morning to find out what is really wrong). I'm sure I will have a post about the plane ride.

When getting ready to go anywhere with the kids it is a 2-3 day preparation. Here are the things I still have to do:
1. 3 more loads of laundry
2. Pack kids and myself
3. Get Hubs Honey do list together
4. Clean floors (I'm to the point of wearing my flip flops while in the house)
5. Get carry on/toy bag ready
6. Go to open gym tonight at school
7. Go to doc in the morning
8. Find some time to go workout

Wish me luck tomorrow!!!

Corn or bust!!!!

Between Spring and Fall

.....Only if I looked like that in a bikini.....


It is slowly creeping into the 90s. Humidity is almost reaching unbearable. Mosquitos are seeking victims to leave their mark of revenge against citronella. Cars are becoming the ovens that cook your buns and singe your hands on the steering wheel. Kids are everywhere...outside, malls, movies, restaurants. All of this means is it is SUMMER. I will gladly endur the breathtaking heat and humidity, the spoiled suburban brats everywhere and the killer skitos. I will live with all this because it means that I am done teaching and I'm home with my kiddos. Summer means I get to be full time mommy and wife :)

Wait is that such a good thing?!?!?

Of course...I don't see my kids enough during the year. So I make up for all that lost time in the summer.

Thumbs Up

On Wednesday I was playing basketball with the 7th grade girls 1st period. We (the coaches) were beating them pretty bad. However, the basketball decided to seek revenge on me and jam into my thumb. I winced in pain and even cried a little. I ended up going to the doc on Thurs. Come to find out I torn the ligaments in my thumb. Lovely huh? Especially since I restart my lucrative career in softball next week. However it does get me out of diaper duty. :) Hubby has taken over very graciously.

Loser Lohan

I am a huge fan of smut gossip. I love reading about celebrities and all their messed up lives. I know I am feeding the frenzy for them doing all the crazy things which gets them into magazines and online blogs. It is so funny how they parade around and showcase their lives. It's like they are prostituting their own lives for the sake of publicity. Take Lindsay Lohan. She goes to rehab because that was the "in" thing to do several months ago. Now that it's "in" to party again so she is partying. And now the "big" thing to do is get lip implants and look like you could audition for Bozo the Clown?!?!? She definitely goes into the ugly category of redheads.

Are you a smut gossip addict?????

You know you want to...

I know what you are thinking...some of those guys are hot

Family and Fun

It was such a beautiful weekend here. The weather was absolutely gorgeous. We spent alot of time outside. Friday I helped at our school dance. Not like dances from my days. No one standing on opposite sides of the gym. On the contrary, everyone one in dancing and some of the them rather close to each other. After the dance I got home and we let the kids go swimming.

Saturday we got up, the kids ate waffles, and we all got ready to go to the movies. We took the kids (for the first time) to the movies to see Shrek. We got there early and that was a good thing because it got pretty full. Even though it was showing on 3 screens at that theater. Kids were pretty good. Aiden fell asleep for about 30 minutes. He woke up and saw about the last 15 minutes. Justin ended up having to leave with Lillie because she was getting fussy and restless. Overall it was a good first experience for them. That is the first time in about 2 years that I have been to the movies so it was a treat for me also. We got home with enough time to let the kids swim again.



On Sunday lillie and I got up early and let the boys sleep in. I watched a movie while she played. After the boys got up, we all went outside and worked in the yard. Of course by that time, Bug was ready for her morning nap. So I let Aiden splash around and swim in his pool. Justin worked on pulling up some bushes on the side of the yard. They were the type with prickly leaves. I have wanted them out since we have lived here (4 years). He may not be timely but he is dependable. He'll get the job done just on his time. Anyway I had a good time with him out there. I had softball practice today also. I joined a league that will play this summer. It should be fun and I look forward to playing. Felt like old days when I used to play.

I love weekends like this. Full of the 2 F's...Family and Fun. I know that sounds corny but it is true. My family is my life!

iiO---WTH?!?!?!?

Ok so how do you say this band's name...iiO? I don't know what it stands for or even how to say it besides "eye eye Big O". Anyway this is my new fav running song. I just want to break out in some crazy techno move the ball dance when I hear it. Enjoy.


Mom, Probably not a song you will like :)

Piggy Tails and Big Shoes

That's what our kids are made of.





Only 9 more days until school is out and I become SAHM!!! I can't wait. This is one of the main reasons I'm a teacher. So I get 3 months to be Stay at home mommy!

Run Forest Run

If that isn't motivation I don't know what will do it for you!!!!!


Time to update all on my trek to lose weight.

Total lbs lost since January--15
Pant sizes dropped---2 (18W-14)
Total lbs lost since July 15- 45

I am back to pre-pregnancy weight. I remember going into the doc when I was prego with Aiden and I was 197 at 8 weeks. And I am 11 lbs less than that now. I bought some size 14 jeans about a month ago and I can already pull them off without unbuttonening them. Who-hoo!!! I am running every day to every other day. I am up to 2.5 miles. Which is awesome considering that when I started working out in January I thought I desired a gold medal when I ran for 5 minutes on the treadmill. I am up to running on the street for 30 minutes. There is a quarter marathon in October that I would like to run. That will be alittle over 6 miles. I hope I don't hit a brick wall once summer gets here. It gets so hot that you can hardly stand it. May have to resort to the Y most of the time.

New goal weight--15 more pounds by the end of summer

Camo Baby Shower

Here is my first attempt at a diaper cake. It turned out really cute (thanks leeza). Also here are pics of the Camo baby shower we gave a girl at work today. She is decorating the nursery in camo so we decided to do the shower in the same. We weren't sure how it would turn out but it turned out really cute.

..5,6,7,8

Today my AD (athletic director) was telling me about video a fellow coach emailed us all. I didn't see it because anytime this coach email us I automatically hit delete. Anyway, as my AD is telling me about his video he is so consumed with laughter he can't even talk. His face is turning red and he is on the verge of tears. I'm laughing at him because this is so out of character for him. So we pull it up on the big screen in our large meeting room. He is doubled over laughing hysterically. It is pretty funny. I think I might have seen it before and you probably have too. But if not and you need a laugh today, check out the video.



***By the way can you tell I'm posting more and getting better at it?!?! Keeping up my new year's resolution!!!

Take me Away

I can't wait for summer. I am struggling through each day at work knowing that summer vacation is just around the corner. 16 days in fact! I saw this picture today and wished I was laying on the bed, reading a book, and letting the sun shine on my face.

When we move I want a little backyard cottage to have a special place to call my own. I can set up my scrapbooking stuff, paint furniture, and whatever my heart desires.

Please summer hurry...I'm about to lose my mind.

Mom Jean Manager

Remember Meet the Parents? Remember when Ben Stiller's character was boarding the plane and the stewardess was calling each section of the plane and he was the only one standing there waiting to board. She wouldn't let him board until his section was called? Well something similar happened today with me. I about went Britney Spears on a Mom Jean wearing Garden Ridge Manager. They have changed the way that the checkouts are at GR. You now walk down a long aisle then the checkouts are all lined up in a row. (Similar to TJMax in Conroe, Mom) I turned the corner on the long aisle and saw a sign that says wait here for next available cashier. Well I look down and there is only one cashier and he is bagging his customers' items. So I start heading down that way (he is number 2 and it started with 12) slowly giving them time to finish up. When all of a sudden I hear "Ma'am can you please wait by the sign until the next cashier is available." With a puzzled look on my face, I turn around and slowly walk back to the sign where I wait alone. I stand there for all about 5 seconds before she says "Next customer please." ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?! So with a really pissed off look, I walk back down the aisle of registers to the returns and exchanges register which is right by the manager. She is standing there with her mom jeans and bright orange shirt. I glare at her with this "you've got to be kidding me" look. I could not believe she made me walk back down the aisle. Power Trip!!! I may have to ban GR for a little while like I did Sam Moon. (that's a-whole-nother story)

Here is the clip from SNL and Mom Jeans Ad.

Tag Sale Tales

I got up early this morning to catch a few garage sales. (I actually caught one yesterday morning on the way to work where I picked up this great little side table for a buck...I'll post pics of it later. still a work in progress) I got some great deals today. I look for things for the kids. Big toys for outside. I picked up a great wagon that will hold both kid (yes I know I already have one..Mom). But this one has seats and cup holders. It was only $8. Then I got Aiden a little trike. (Yes i know he already has one) But this one I can steer it from behind. Plus when Lillie gets bigger she will need one too. So they can both ride together. Felt like I stole it from the lady for only $6. Then I got an assortment of kids books and magazines for me. Spent about $11 on those. I spent about 3 hours out and about today. This is what rejuvenates me and gets me through the week.

Fantasy Life

This is the life that I want. Slow. Steady. Sitting on the front porch watching my kids play in the yard. Not a neighbor in sight. Just the day and time to waste away

Disgusted on a whole 'nother level

Ok I get cloth diapers. I understand they are better for the environment and supposedly better for baby. I can only imagine the number of diapers that end up in landfills every day. However, one thing I can't understand is cloth menstrual pads. Just the thought makes me want to throw up. I came across is in one of the many blogs I read. She was talking about receiving her order for menstrual pads. They are in lucky charms and pink panther printed fabric. I read the comments and they were talking about how to care for them. I guess I am not an environment friendly human because I don't use "cloth mommy pads." I make sure I put a few extra things in the recycle bin this week to make up for not using cloth pads. Ewww it sounds so gross!!

Check out ebay...there are tons of people making and selling these things.

Play Ball!!

I snagged this great bookcase for a mere $20 at a garage sale yesterday morning. It was green but I put a quick coat of black paint on it last night. And Voila!!! I got the canvas baskets at Wally World. Now our living room doesn't look like Toy R Us exploded in our house. I've been looking for something like this. Plus my $20 went to a little league team who is trying to raise money to go to the world series.

My Obsession

Only my closest friends and family know my deep dark secret. And I must say most are ashamed of the fact that I take part in such acts. I love garage sales, bargain hunting, buying other people's junk at discounts, and rummaging through estate sales. I have furnished and decorated my house with about 40% new store bought items and the rest from garage sales, online yard sales, and closeout stores. I get such a high off buying something cheap. I also love sharing with those who will listen to the great deals I got. That is all part of the high...seeing the reaction from others when I say I got a Cozy Coupe Cop car for my toddler for only $5. Maybe it is the hint of jealousy in their eye at the fact that I got such and good deal and they didn't. HeeHee. My hubs gets tired of me coming home with all my treasures. He always doubts me when I bring things in. But he did admit to me once that it usually ends up looking good. He still doubts the fencepost headboards that I got for free that are resting comfortably in the garage until they make their debut. They will make their grand appearance in due time. And make my words it will look great. I am always on the lookout for the next bargain. Right now I am looking for a dresser for my utility room and a entertainment center/armoire for the living room. I refuse to buy new. The minute you leave the store, it loses value. I would much rather spend $25 on a dresser that I may not like in a few months/years than spend $300. Then I will never feel like I can get rid of it. Here are a few pics of my treasures!!

I bought two ceiling tiles from a lady in my town each for only $10!!!

I got the piece of iron above the commode at a garage sale. I got two for $20. They are really heavy and the perfect distressed look.

I bought this dresser for $50. It is really solid and beautiful piece. The wire basket on top was at a garage sale 10 cents. Or atleast that is what I thought when I paid the lady. Once I got it home it said $10. She was crazy to think I was going to pay her $10. I did feel guilty though. I thought about taking it back to her...but only for about 2 seconds.

Dressing Room Surprise

I have really packed on the pounds the past 2 years. I was basically either pregnant or nursing the past two years. Therefore dieting was never really a priority/reality for me. In July I started getting serious about losing weight when my size 18W pants started feeling tight. So for about 4 weeks I tried Nutrisystem. I lost some weight on it. Once school started I stopped doing Nutrisystem and just watched what I ate. Plus I was getting lots of exercise coaching volleyball. I lost quite a bit from July to December. When we returned from Christmas break we started the Biggest Loser competition at school. This is the final week before our final weigh in. I am not going to win the money because other people have lost more weight than I have in the 9 weeks. I have lost a total of 12 pounds so far. Hoping to make it 15 by Friday.

However, I do feel like the biggest loser. I just figured this weekend how much I have lost over the course of 7 months. I have lost 38 pounds!!! Pretty amazing. I am smaller now than I was before I got pregnant with Aiden which was 3 years ago. So I have lost all my baby weight!!!!!! Another thing that was awesome this weekend. I bought a size 14 pair of capris. Again I haven't been that size in 3 years. I could not believe that they zipped up and I could still breath.I was so excited that they even fit that I called Justin to tell him while I was in the dressing room. He didn't really seem too excited for me. You know men they don't know what clothing sizes mean to us women. So I ended up calling my best friend to tell her. She was excited for me. (Thanks Sleez)I was so proud to wear my size 14 pants yesterday. I felt like telling everyone I saw. Of course everyone would have looked at me like I was crazy...but who cares!

I am hoping to hit my goal weight by the time summer rolls around. If I hit my goal weight that means I will have lost a total of 57 pounds!!!

Hmmmm

"Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly,
Kiss slowly, Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably,
And never regret anything that made you smile." ....quote I received through email

Life is short---depends on your perspective. Some may think it isn't short enough and other may think that 80 years is too short of a time to leave their mark.

Break the rules---if you do then your life will be really short.

Forgive quickly---Forget slowly

Kiss slowly---depends on who you are kissing. Matthew McConaughey slow very slow...Great Aunt Mabel fast very fast!!!

Love truly---AGREE

Laugh uncontrollably---especially when someone falls

And never regret anything that made you smile---even if it hurts people you love?!?!

"I do all my own stunts"

That is what A's shirt said today. It was quite fitting since he got his first set of x-rays today. Last night he decided to do some kind of Matrix-like jump off the couch onto L's activity table. Needless to say he needs to work on his landing because he didn't "nail" it. Instead he gets up screaming and limping towards me. We put ice on it the best we could. But it started swelling. He limped around here all evening even trying to chase Abbie with the corn popper. That was a site to be seen. Anyway we sent him to bed hoping that he would get up in the morning walking straight.

He didn't so I called and got him an appt with the doc. The doctor has us get x-rays. That is something that I don't ever want to do again. A screamed like ever hair in his head were being plucked one by one. I was dripping with sweat. It wasn't so bad until the lady had to shoot the last (of 8) xrays 4 times until she got it right. But the way before we started the lady asks me if there is anyway that I may be pregnant. I gasped and almost lost all composure. Pregnant? "I sure hope not" was my answer. Please warn a sister next time you're going to ask me such a loaded question. Let me atleast hold onto something. I feel like I need to be de-jinxed.

Well the doctor called a few hours later to let us know that nothing is broken. Thank goodness. He just has a bad sprain. He is still limping around (kinda breaks your heart). But don't worry I got some video of it. :) Doc says if he doesn't stop limping in 2 days that we need to call. Hopefully it will work itself out. I really don't want to be asked any "Are you pregnant?" questions again any time soon.

Private!!

I recently set my myspace to private, deleted any students on my friend list, and identity proofed my blog. I have really felt that my right to freedom of speech has been violated this past week. Just because I teach means that I can not have any opinions or voice my frustration. Therefore I will crawl back in my shell. What other profession has to keep their opinions, feelings, and life under wraps?

Anybody Out There?

Does anyone really read my blog? If you do send me a shout out just so I know that my efforts are not completely in vain. Hopefully, if you do read my blog you find some sort of entertainment in it. Also if I do find that people read it I will be more apt to post more often. If no one (except for my #1 faithful reader...my mom) I may stop this self indulgent insight into my life since it really only is me who is paying attention. So is anyone out there?

House of Sick-os

The kids have been sick for over a week now. We took them to the doctor yesterday. They both have some form of RSV and Aiden has an ear infection on top of that. Fun...fun!! Anytime we take the kids into the doctor they always have something strange and out of the ordinary. Aiden has had herpegenia (small ulcers in the back of the throat caused by playing at the germ tree at the mall) and croup (from sunday school or chic-fil-a playground). Lillie was really sick a few months ago that resulted in nothing more than a blood culture that came back fine. And now RSV. How come my kids don't just come down with a simple cold? No they have to be over achievers in even being sick. I can't wait until they start feeling better and Justin too for that matter. He has come down with a cold too. I have a sore throat and cough that developed over night. I guess we will all be sick before it is over with. Well wish us luck in the next few days...we are starting to get a little delirious from the lack of sleep at night.

First Year of my Late 20s

Today is the blessed day that I chose to come into this wonderful world. Granted this grand event occurred 27 years ago. I have been slightly depressed about turning 27 for about a month now. I recall when I was younger, maybe 19 or so, and hearing people saying they were 27 and thinking "Man they are kinda old and not really cool anymore." For some reason saying that I am 26 sounded so much younger than 27. I have some friends that are older than me...well quite a bit older 15-25 years. And they cringe everytime I said that I was upset about turning 27. They would laugh and snicker. But I guaran-damn-tee you that they felt the same way when they were turning 27.

Today was a "so so" day. Hell is freezing over here in Texas. So we have not done much of anything the past two days. It's been too freaking cold. My sisters threw me a party on Sunday night. It was fun and it "hit" the spot for this depressing, dreaded day. And last Friday night I went out with coworkers to our fav place TUTS...Theatre under the stars as Patti calls it. Oh and I got a present from my body...I gained a pound over the weekend. I have lost 5 and one decided that it didnt like the "other side" and wanted to come back. CRAP now I have to go Nicole Ritchie for the next few days to lose it so I don't have to pay my dollar to the Biggest Loser fund.

There were some really great things about my birthday that I cannot forget to mention...pink roses from my hubby, pink UT shirt from my friend, workout clothes from Mel, candle bracelet and game from Dena, sweet figurine from mom and dad, and the best of all gift...Complete Series of Sex and the City!!! My hubs is the best!!!

2007 Solutions

I looked up the definition of resolution. Out of the several listed I found this one to fit how I think resolution fits into my life "finding a solution to a problem" That got me to thinking that supposedly I need to analyze the problems in my life and find a solution. So here is my attempt at this problem solving.
Problem #1: I'm FAT.
Solution: Lose 25-30 pounds and exercise daily.
Problem #2: I'm addicted to Myspace.
Solution: Form a Myspaceaholic Support Group...no not really just limit my usage to once or twice a day
P roblem #3: I drink too my diet sodas.
Solution: Drink more water plus I just read that drinking diet soda doubles your chances of being obese.
Problem #4: I'm not a very good cook
Solution: Spend more time cooking and reading about cooking. Remember the way to a man's heart is through his stomach.
Problem #5: Turning 27 ...dammit no solution
