When a little boy gets really independent...

"Yummy chocolate silk pie...I should really dig in with both hands. Don't get this everyday you know..."
"Oh, Hi Mom! Have you tired this silk pie yet?"....
..."tastes sorta like, hmmm...chocolate and whipping cream."
"I'll share it with you...dig in!"
"What..? I only drooled a little....besides, Mom's aren't supposed to get grossed out by their kids spit."
"Suitchyerself...more for me then."
"I gotta tell ya though, you're missing out on a delicious Walmart pie"
"Perfect compliment to the pizza, thanks Mom!"


**He colored on his own nose, and pulled a chair up to the stove while I was in the other room for a bit. I don't typically buy Walmart pies, but this one was free.

Pay it Forward Gift Giveaway

This is the loot I won from Heathers Pay it Forward Gift Giveaway. She knows me so well...If you click to enlarge the picture, you can see her sweet little notes. The chocolate may or may not have existed at the time the picture was taken...AHEM...it shall remain a mystery :) If YOU would like to win a gift from ME...here's the rules:



The Rules(if you win):


1. You must be willing to give me your mailing address so I can send your gift.


2. You'll have to post your own Pay It Forward giveaway after you receive your gift.


3. Play along....send your 2 lucky winners their gift. Doesn't have to be anything big or expensive...maybe a favorite of yours or whatever that would make the ordinary day a little less ordinary.


So, YOU have until
MONDAY (February 8) at 3PM to enter...I will do a really suspenseful drawing and announce the winner soon after that. Good luck!

I'm going to (attempt to) make them.

I realize this is probably to much for some people, I happen to love bold...so this is what we're going with. The fabrics will be across the room from each other, so it will be a nice balance.

Last night I was having an instant message conversation with someone...which I have to tell you how much I love instant messaging because it gives me a completely different dimension to be funny. (at least in my own head :)) So last night I was having this chat and I was trying to really emphasize my feelings about something, so I wrote...

"PAH-THE-TICK!"

Now, with chat, I type so fast that most of the time I type, send, and then re-read what I wrote. So then my next message said...

"that didn't come out as cool as it sounded in my head"


Which made us laugh even more, because (and I stress again, in my own head) it was a funny thing to say after saying the previous funny thing. I think the things that takes chatting to the next level is when I'm up really late and my friend who is always up late start having these hilarious conversations and because we are so tired, we are laughing uncontrollably at the end and have to go to bed because our (my) husband is starting to toss and turn every time I go into fits of laughter, and then breathe heavy like he "doesn't see the humor in this, at all...AT ALL!!" Yeah, he didn't really ever say that, but it's funny to picture him saying it, right? Never mind, don't answer that (you know unless you think it's hilarious, like I apparently do)


-----> In case you found that whole thing lame, I thought I'd distract you with some bullets:
  • Hermmm. Let's see.
  • Ummmm....
  • Nevermind.

Anyone have an opinion on these curtains? If you remember, our duvet looks like this ...so yea or nay?

Butt Lift (oh yeah, I went there!)

I'll be the first to admit it, embarrassing as it may be....that the fabric on our dining room chairs was pretty disgusting. I spray it down with stain remover about once a month, but let's face it...that doesn't last long with 4 kids running around.
Viola! New snazzy fabric for some kick, with plastic covering to keep it all nice :) This chair took us like 2 hours, so tomorrow Jason is bringing home a staple gun instead of the whacker thing and it should go faster...and hopefully he won't get his fingers this time. This fabric is cheerio and makes me think of summer, which I really really miss.

Trae and Archer are both crying, Archer because he fell he is so tired, Trae because Archer is. Then Trae stops and says "why I crying gain, mom?"
