Winter Park Playing

First off, I will start with saying visit this blog: http://lilmunchkindoodle.blogspot.com/ you can win free cute homemade kid essentials!!!! This will sure look cuter than our ziploc bag of crayons!!

Well today was a pretty nice day and so I decided to let the kids burn all their energy at the park today! Nice booty shots I know. I didn't feel like being a photographer! Nor did I feel like doing anything, other than sitting down for a while...

Zane wanted me to put up the video we recorded of him telling a knock knock joke. After waiting for 30 minutes and it still wasn't uploaded, I decided to forget it. He lost interest after the first few minutes of waiting anyway and now he is asking to watch The Grinch!

Being silly walking back home

Gina came and visited again and stayed with Wes while we played!

Yay Science Museum!!

So today I went to the Science Museum for the first time ever (my kids have gone before) and became a member. I loved it! I want this tree house in my backyard...not sure it will fit though!

This is Annabeth who has been my little AMAZING nanny since Wes has been in the hospital. I would be going crazy without her!

Winking is still cool folks! So lady-like...

puppet show!

Face painting on the tongue! I was busy figuring out the impossible brain teaser games they had and was not watching the kids and here comes Zane saying take my picture...

Yay Cartwheel time! Lovely I know.

At first Zane said, "Nooooo Gymnastics only for girls!" But then he realized he can have fun too!

He wanted me to take a picture of him looking at Nemo. Can't really see Nemo though!Ring a round the rosie with himself! Fun times.

Gina, your boys would love this! So next time you are up here we'll make a date! I can't believe it took five years to find this place! Thank you to everyone who NEVER TALKED ABOUT IT!

Once Upon A Time...

I had kids who thought I was the best thing in the world and wanted to hold and kiss me all day long. Now I have a child that has ultra sensitive ears and tells me how I hurt his feelings almost daily and another who thinks she owns the world...

Zane: "Mommy be sweet to me okay"
Me: "I am sweet to you, aren't I"
Zane: "No, you just yelled at me"
Me: "I didn't yell? What did I say?"
Zane: "You say ZANE DON'T TEAR THAT(in a loud scary voice). You yelled like that."
Me: Even though I totally didn't say it the way he reinacted it, he actually looked hurt...

They then wanted to go outside...and this is what I heard...

Me: Putting a hat on Avery
Avery: "No I don't even like this one." While taking it off
Me: Putting it back on her. "it's the only one I can find right now."
Avery: "I'm already wearing one. I don't need two."
Me: "You can take the hood off but you have to leave this one on."
Avery: "Well I'm just going to take it off right when I get outside"
Me: "Then you'll come right back inside!"
Avery: "Uh...All i'm saying is you are rude"
Me: "Avery I am not. You have to have your ears covered."

And all of that for 1.2 minutes of playing outside....


I decided going for a drive out in this weather sounded better than ever! I am finally with Wes who actually appreciates my company!! I haven't seen him for three days since I got the pukes. I'm all good now and glad to see him! He is doing okay. His throat hurts and he has gotten sores in his mouth (a common side effect from no white blood cells) but they are talking about him coming home tomorrow! So we'll see!!! Hopefully no one else in my family gets sick so we can have a clean house for him!

Ballet: Take One

Well we went to buy her ballet gear when I realized the address to the studio had jumped away. My GPS wasn't aware of an ARTS dance place so I asked the store we just made a purchase from for the address. She knew exactly the dance place I was talking about and gave me the address...which was their mailing address and not the actual dance studio. So Take One: FAILURE.

Avery was sad so we took pictures which she loves seeing on the computer! This is pose is the first pose she always does!
Then she stated "Wait that's not ballet.....here"
oh for Take Two...

One of my hobbies...

Now that i've gotten rid of my job, I have been painting again. I was pretty good back in highschool but like my tumbling abilities...they've gone away some! Hopefully i'll slowly get it back.

I have converted 1/4 of our room into my "office" with a really big ugly work desk that is a huge mess! I plan on hanging up all art until this wall is covered (or until Wes says i'm overboard!) As you can see I had to start with easy stuff! The one at the top is with chalk pastels and is pretty crappy but until there is something better to take its spot...it remains! Oh and a pic of Zane will be up there shortly!

Some other paintings/crafts i've done the past 6 months as well...

My Child is being Corrupted!

Okay so I know she looks like the ring leader...but it would have been innocent animation of Bible songs or The Wiggles had it not been for those darn 6+ year olds!!!! Am I just in denial of her growing up?

PS This video took 20+ minutes to post...is that normal or is there a quicker way...or is my computer just slow...Arg!?
