Puppets on My Feet

I have this awesome pair of chunky-funky blue socks that are perfect for cold weather toes, they also make perfect sock puppets for Thade. I had let him borrow one for a puppet a few weeks ago. Once he was finished playing puppets, I returned the sock to my drawer. Last night I thought it was a perfect opportunity to moisturize my toes, and I got out the socks. I still had them on this morning, which was a good thing, because it was a little chilly.

Once Thade was up and going, I went in to check on him. Thade looked at my feet, and gave me the strangest look. He said “Mom, why are you wearing my puppets?” I couldn’t stop laughing, my Thade has quite a memory, and he wanted his puppets back. I guess its time to wash the puppets and return them to their rightful owner for a puppet show.

Goin’ Shopping

My hubby just called, and I’m going to be cooking a ton tomorrow. We are sending meals home to his co-worker. I’m making a Coconut Cream Pie, Chili, Chicken and Noodles, and Mashed Potatoes. We are also sending a little gift. I was trying to get out of Wal-Mart for around $35.00, but after the new list of items to make and buy it looks like I’ll be lucky if I get out for under $100.00 🙁

I forgot I’m also heading to Walgreens for diapers, pull-ups, and Paper Towels (to make baby wipes) so that is a $50.00 trip. Wish me luck, I’m off to the stores 😉

Can’t Wait for Halloween ;)

Thade is so ready for Halloween! Me too, it is my favorite holiday. Last night we had a practice Halloween so Thade could wear his costume. Dylan was super happy to see his big brother all dressed up, he laughed and giggled as Thade jumped around the room pretending to be a race car.

This year Thade is going as Dale Earnhardt Jr (again), he looks so cute. I don’t know what Dylan is going to be though.  I’ll have to get creative with his costume.

Happy Monday-ish :)

Monday’s are not my friend, even though I’m staying at home. Maybe I’m just trained to stress about Mondays. This last week I have been a day behind everyday. Just yesterday I finally got all of the dishes washed and then I made lunch and they were all back again. I’m putting off shopping until tomorrow, and I have to go to the post office too. Today I’m trying to take it easy and make it an early evening. I hope the boys will cooperate 😉

Nope, not a Morning Person

Yesterday me waking up early with boundless energy and a readiness to conquer the day was a total freak accident.  Today I could not drag myself out of bed. I am so tired, and my noggin is stinging.  Thade came in 3 times to wake me up. Luckily my hubby was up early, so he was keeping Thade busy. Dylan is still sleeping, lucky baby 😉

Around 7:00 p.m. last night Dylan started screaming, his gums were hurting so bad.  I got both of the boys upstairs for baths at 8:00 p.m. Dylan was first and then some teething medication and Baby Tylenol, and miraculously he went right to sleep. I hurried and gave Thade a bath too. Then off to bed so Mom could have a little break. Thade was quickly asleep and Dylan slept until 11:00 p.m. 🙂 Continue reading »
