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 😉

Nico a Morning Person?

Something strange happened this morning, I was awake before my hubby. I was up and nursing Dylan at 6:00 a.m., and then I didn’t go back to sleep. Usually I try to sleep for one more hour, and then drag myself downstairs for a cup of coffee.

This morning I’m all ready to go, and I just turned on the coffee-maker. Uh-oh is Nico the all day sleeper turning in to a  “Morning Person”!?!

The Moth

This has been an interesting week for bugs. We had a cave-cricket invade the living room ( I grabbed a tissue and set it free outside), and a really cool praying mantis on the front steps, but Thade wasn’t a fan of either one. Last night we had an unexpected visitor in the boy’s room. A little brown moth found its way in and Thade was not happy about it. I went in the room and found him screaming “MOP” and frantically pointing at the ceiling. It was just a little moth, not that big of a deal. Thade was a little worried about the moth getting too close, and possibly biting him. Thade then said “get a tissue and get it out of here.” Continue reading »

September 2007 Savings

Dylan is taking a quick nap, so I finally have a minute to catch up on my coupon savings. During the month of September I saved  $19.20 🙂  That brings my Feb.-Sept. total to $237.29! Let’s see how I do this month.
