Frohman





His shirt says it all...minus the fact that he actually has his first tooth. He's teething. Joy. Anything that he can shove in his mouth is free game for chewing. Another joy...fussy. Why must getting teeth be so painful? I use the teething tablets, I use washcloths, and all those other "mom" tricks to help with the process. Poor Guy. Poor Me.

He's also a chunky man. I don't know how much he weighs, because, well, basically I'm a bad mom who doesn't take their kid to the doctor every 3.5 weeks. I don't. I figure if he is not sick why expose him to the nasty germs that linger at a pediatricians office, plus I don't do immunizations until they are a year old, and I hate having the "talk" with the doctor. I'm not against immunizations, I just want their bodies to be a little bigger. That's just me.

Besides teething issues, life is good. I don't sleep. The two year old is still for sale. Work has been a tad crazy, and I'm patiently awaiting for fall to finally arrive. I love fall. The smell, the colors, the excitement of the upcoming holidays. I just want it to get here already. A friend posted on facebook today "Snow". I'm jealous.

Letters


Dear Jodi,

Back in 2006 you send a little letter to me for my birthday. It came at a time when I really needed it. I hung it on my fridge. It's been there ever since.

It's been a life saver to me again lately. Every time I read it, I think of you, and a fun memory from Texas comes into my brain. Your voice enters my mind, and I hear you say "Hey Sister". It make me smile. Thank you.

I love and miss you.

Sarah

P.S. The apron you made me for my birthday ions ago...still my favorite.

busy weekend

So, it seems that life doesn't slow down, but at least things are getting accomplished. Remember the tree out front of my house that I hate? {click here} Well, I was sitting in my room one afternoon, it was the day after a so-so monsoon storm when I heard a crash. I knew it wasn't a car crash, but that something had happened. I figured that another stupid pigeon flew into my garage door (yes, that has happened more than once...the pigeon's are stupid in our neighborhood). So I looked out my window to see a branch had fallen off of the really ugly tree. Hurray! Sad part was that it missed my van by [...........] this much. Oh well. So I took a picture with my handy dandy cell phone and sent it to my parents and hubby. The following Saturday it was gone thanks to my dad, my hubby, and my semi-retarded brother Michael. Hurray!!

For you peeps who don't know already, the first Saturday of the month, Home Depot has a kids clinic where they get to build something for FREE... score that. I went along with Aaron and the girls and we invited our friends kiddos along for the fun. They build a bean bag toss thingy.

Elle hammering away.
The finished products. Such goofy kids!
Tiffany enjoyed the popcorn. She really isn't into the whole Bob the Builder thing yet.

This picture proves how crazy I've been. I'm too busy to even scan a wedding picture in, so I took a pic of one on my wall...how lame is that? Aaron and I have been hitched 12 years. HOLY MOLY!! Seriously?! I got him a $50 gift card to ManLand (Harbor Freight) and let him purchase some game online. He got me....(insert crickets chirping here)......
Anywho - we had a fun weekend. We took the girls to As You Wish on Monday and had a blast painting different items. We then spent the rest of the day being lazy and enjoying the day off. Oh well, back to the grind today. **sigh**
