what the?????? No way!!!!

I just uploaded a ton of pictures from our Utah Vay- cay. 

I cannot believe how much my boys have grown up.

I'm thinking to myself..... My parents were this young and had kids this age before, and they

saw their grow up, just like I'm seeing mine grow up!!!!

In the pictures I uploaded Ty has a beard and Mustache; in old pics my dad had a Stache!  so i'm thinkin to myself   Someday we are gonna have this family and someday with grandkids, just like My dad!!!!!! My kids are growing soooo fast!!! Wow!!!!---- I'm practically jibbering to death!

my youngest looks like a 2 year old!!! GEE WIZZZZ

No way daddy

I got ryker a treat today.   It was one of those X-treme sour airheads.  Well when Ty got home he asked Ryker if he could have a bite.  Ryker said no daddy.   Tyler said Please?  And ryker says No Way daddy!!

Anyway.  Today was Rykers Audiology Appt.   And he has liquid in his ears so he either has to have tubes or some sort of medicine for about 10 days so try and clear it up.   Ryker is basically hearing like he's underwater.  But The doctor was really shocked at how well he's communicating so that's good.

Poor guy!  I'm excited to help him though.   I wonder what it will be like when he can REALLY hear!!!! 

Hmmmmm We will all be in for a treat or a shock! 

I'm gettin Called out by a 3 YR OLD!!!!!!

Do you remember those Granola Bar commercials where the kids say embarrassing things about the parents?

well here it goes

So Last night My neighbors and I went to Olive Garden with my Neighbors.

Ryker had to go potty so I took him.   And when we got back to our table Ryker YELLED (i mean YELLED) I WENT POO!!!!

so I  realized that Ryker is starting to have a BIG MOUTH!!!

Well after dinner last night we had cake and I was pretty gassy.   I went to Rykers Bedroom to let out a fart.   When I came out  Ryker says MARA TOOT!!! OH GEEZE!!!   Thank goodness it was in front of our good friends who already new I didn't care ( but I was still slightly embarrassed).

Today I was on the "pot"  Doin my Bizzatch and Tyler was on the phone with someone from work.   Ryker comes into the bathroom and Yells (and I mean YELLS)  MARA YOU GOIN POO?  GOOD GIRL MARA GOOD GIRL!!!

WHOA!!!!! I really hope that the person on the other end of tylers phone call didn't hear that.

I need to put a muzzle on my Kid!!!!

WHAT THE HECK CHILD!!!!

HaPPy BirThdAy MaRa!!!

I am 23 going on 13

I was feeling sad the other day because I'm 23yrs old.  I'm taking the kids to preschool and we go on friday play dates etc.  I'm doing Older People stuff, while my friends are in college doing lots of Younger people things.

Well that all changed when I was at Wal- mart with Ty and the boys.  We were checking out and the Cashier says to me- Judging by your wedding ring you're married but you look like you are 13 years old!  

I started to blush and giggle saying oh thank you i feel so young he he he he.... (J/K).

No I started to laugh because It made my day having someone telling me that I look young, so i thought to myself Holy Crap I am young!  So that was a funny/fun little comment that made my pre birthday day!

CHRISTMAS and Grits Chaos and kids!

      We put our tree up a few days before Thanxgiving but decorated it after.  

Last year Phoenix wasn't quite crawling yet, but he kept getting over to the tree!!  I caught him rolling there, then after he had practiced for a few days he started scooting backward to it.  

      Well Phoenix is walking now, and he can't help himself (he HAS to touch and grab).  We had to "Phoenix-Proof" our tree.  We got Plastic ornaments for the bottom of the tree and we put the nice glass ones on top.  

But if we really Phoenix proofed it there wouldn't be any ornaments on the bottom part of the tree.

Well anyway.... Every year Ty and I get a new ornament for each person.  Ryker chose a lightning McQueen one and We chose for Phoenix ---------

The Abominable Snowman From Rudolf The Rednose Reindeer!   It just fit little Phoenix Perfectly this year; Him trying to grab and destroy all the ornaments from the tree!  

I don't  know if Ty and I will ever learn but we got a train for under the Tree and we decided to put it up tonight.   Well Phoenix (as cute as it was), kept trying to grab the train as it was moving.  Ryker kept saying No NO NEENIX , NO TOUCHIN NEENIX,  NEENIX GO TAKE A NAP.

It's Chaotic but I don't think That I'd change it for a minute

The Washer Monster!!!

Do you ever feel like Someone is Secretly coming into your House and steeling your clothes?   Or The Washing Machine Really is alive and It really does eat your pants?

I feel like that all the time!!! I swear my clothes keep disappearing!    I look in the most craziest places too, because maybe my boys put them in that Crazy place.   So I look in the boys beds and in the Garage, the Pantry and all the obvious places too!    But Its not anywhere to be found, so you come to the conclusion that the Washing Machine ate it Or to be more reasonable Someone is breaking into our house everyday while we are gone doing something, and they steal my favorite socks,pants, shirts and that one shoe!

It drives me crazy!!!   I know it drives everyone else crazy too!  I know it's not just me this is happening too!!
