the winegar family dressed to kill

I brought back (from my utah) some home videos

One is of me and my childhood and one is of Megans.

I watched mine today in Rykers room ( his tv is the only connected to a VCR-dvd Combo).  

It was soo fun to see all the funny things I did when i was little.  

On my video - It had lots of my birthdays and one of our Christmas Eve party type thingy from like the early 90's.  My family was sooo young.  My oldest brother Cory ,Had to only be 16 years old.   He and Weston had these hair cuts that were borderline Mullet.   Megan had her hair All over the place and kept stealing the camera shots saying Hi Mommy then giggling!  Holly had long blond hair.  Jordan had longer Curly hair and it was curly and he had such a young voice too!

My mom had like a bowl cut,  My dad's hair was Black! and My grandma and grandpa were so young!  Hearing my grandpa speak in it was sooo crazy!! He sounded sooo young!!

It seems that hair is the one thing that's stuck in my memory

And When I caught glimpse of me!  I had these HUGE brown glasses on my face!   It was sooo hilarious!!!  i was this small little girl with long hair ( all over the place) with HUGE brown thick frames!!!

We were all wearing bedtime robes and my brothers were wearing towels on their heads and My dad was the donkey and My sister Holly was Mary.   It was sooo funny!

But it brought back many many many memories.   

In one of the clips of video my mom caught me singing in the bath tub ( i was prolly only about 4 yrs old).    I was singing the little mermaid and splashing around  like one too.    Then I started singing I am a child of God  when I noticed her taping .... then I said MOM.

I've got all these things runnin around my head :-)

I love it when it rains hard core here at night when i'm not planning on going anywhere.

It rains sooo hard, it sounds like a waterfall outside our doors and windows.   Then the lightning is sooo close and the thuder is soooo loud!!!! I love it.  That's one thing I like about GA.  

if you live or have lived in Utah then you Know that wonderful Sage brush smell after a rain  I love that sage brush smell. It is so sweet and sooo fresh!!!!  Just like using Zest and being Zestfully clean.   

Well The next morning after a rain here- you get this potent smell of Poop.   ha ha ha  The pipes are closer to the surface here -not like in utah where they are deep deep in the ground).    

Awwwe  the nice smell of poop to start the day.  Would you like a baby wipey with that??? Or hand sanitizer?  Or Lysol?    Well my solution to the problem - I like to put those car fresheners (the ones shaped like trees) around my neck so I can smell that instead of the poop.

I know this is pretty random, but that's just how I roll I guess.

Don't worry you're confused.

today I thought- Do people want to really know what goes inside my head????  So I thought I'll type exactly what I am thinking..... you'll prolly get confused because inside my head my thoughts jump from place to place.

South park is sooo funny!

Lola dangit you need to go potty - i'm too tired to take you.  maybe if i wait long enough ty will take her.

Did i record Greys Anatomy? Hopefully its on HD and not regular TV.

Should I got to Victoria Secret when Ty flies on Friday?

Oh ya I need to pay ryker and spikes tuition this week don't forget, don't forget don't forget.

should I make the Ahi Tuna salad tomorrow?  Ya or else the Avocados will go bad.

Man these commericals suck down here but they still make me laugh.

Ty do you have chapstick?

Oh crap he's goin to sleep i have to take lola out.

ha ha ha why do farts always make me laugh?  

ok i'm gonna take lola out Now 

maybe not Now, Now, but Now???? No hold on.

This episode of South park is funny but stupid.     Oooo I want to go to Mellow Mushroom for pizza YUM.

Oh wait Luigis sounds good too!   Crap I need to wax my mustache, I'll have to write that down so I don't forget -which is funny because If i see it I shouldn't forget. 

Wow I'm tired.  Dangit Rykers school starts early and I should go to bed!   Ok ok ok I'm going to For reals take lola out then go to bed

ha ha ha ha ha i totally farted I could feel it comin but I thought it was poo.  I need a snack.  Dont get a snack dont get a snack -new year resolution- new year resolution- new year resolution.

ok lola lets go potty

good night for reals though because I'm really gonna take lola out

Um , Ya, about that....

I decided To be Less Selfish this year  and um, It's not working out so well.   OOPS!

well My real Resolution was to be more positive, So I think that being selfish would qualify under that category.

Ty and I were having a conversation about him and work and I immediately turned it around to me!  And It didn't affect me in the least!!!  Wow, Right!!

So since I'm attempting at more positivity I was really shocked at how fast I turned the conversation around and bla bla bla.  

Thankfully I noticed!

I may not be doing the best job of it but I guess I did a tiny bit of a good one at trying out my resolution.

im sorry, it's prolly rude!!! but i'm gonna say it anyway

Ok OK  OK !!

I was just thinking about this..... Its kinda random!!!!!

But you know when you Hear, like a black woman say..." I went through 20 hours labor and  Brought you into this world!!!! You Know I will TAKE YOU OUT"!!!!!

Well I was thinking because, like someday Ty and I would love to adopt a girl if we can!!!

And adoption costs a lot of money!!!!

So I was thinking  --- Do people who adopt say:  Girl I Paid  $50,000 to bring you to this country and I want a Refund!!!  or Do they say like you have to pay me back??? or what????  I dunno just something I was pondering!!!

Things Every Mom Knows; will know; or Should know

Ok So this is how it is.....

1- Do NOT EVER get in the bath with your Toddler right after he's taken a poo in his Diaper.

     ( you may have wiped his/her bum really really well, but when you are sitting in the bath water and you notice strange brown-tan floaties; You'll feel really nasty that you're sitting in some sort of poop water)

2- Unless you are comfortable with Back-wash..... Do not Share your Drink with a Toddler, unless you want to experience nasty floaties

3-Do not Mop the floor until AFTER lunch ( i can't stress this enough---especially to myself)

4-leave the Plastic-wear Drawer un-babyproofed.   Kids love that drawer more than their toys.

5- save the sturdy plastic kids cups that come with those lids that you'll get at restaurants ..... they are better than sippy cups, and kids think they are more fun

6-If your child is attached to a specific piece of clothing---- Buy another one of them or else you will have a stinky shirt or pants until the weekend.

7-always have a treat or toy handy BEFORE you go into a grocery store or a Target type Store.... it will save you  A LOT of hassle with a bratty child

8- Always Hurry and Put a Diaper on your child (if they aren't potty trained); right after they get out of the bath...... They will pee on the floor or the bed or the towel  etc  

9-For the Holidays... Never put decorations (that are valuable or Glass) on low tables or near the bottom of the christmas tree etc.

10-Get used to your child yelling out something really awkward in awkward situations.  (I.E on a plane or at church---- MOMMY LOOK AT RYKERS BOOBIES!!!   OH MOMMY YOU TOOT!!!)

11-Keep your bras and underwear in the top drawer

12- keep the toilet lids CLOSED!!!!

13- Get a Wireless Mouse (for the computer)---kids are relentless and they will try to get that mouse especially while you are using it.

14- Don't be worried if all your child wants is Nuggets for every meal

15-You can blame your kids for your farts!!!! --- if the Fart is silent!!!!  

(say you are in a public place, you can't hold it in so it seeps out and it smells nasty!!!!   Smell your childs bum and say Ooooo You're poopy aren't you!!!!  Then people will think it was baby, instead of you!!!   saves ALOT of embarrassment 

16- get used to and laugh to Potty jokes!   You are gonna be changing diapers Or you have changed diapers for at least 2 years ( 2 yrs per child)  get used to "EVERYBODY POOPS" 

17- PLUG UP YOUR PLUG/OUTLETS!!!!!  your child WILL eventually stick something "not good" in there!!!!

18- Keep your Camera handy at all times!!!  Kids do the cutest things and you don't want to forget it.

19-  You'd be amazed at what you can fit into a trendy smaller bag rather than a diaper bag---- If you don't want a diaper bag.

20-  If your child is in a "acting horrible in a restaurant" phaze--- Bring a mini DVD player !!! NO JOKE!  or if you have an iPhone or iTouch (which is our personal fave for a restaurant)- bring or load up your kids favorite movie and then you wont have such a squeemish Screamish Child!

21- get used to hearing the SAME movie over and over and over and over and over and over again---- that also goes  with the Backyardigans and their Soundtrack

22- do some sort of Scrapbooking or photobook for each child--- it helps them feel individual and special.   And as a parent you will be amazed at how well you did as a parent (especially if you didn't have high expectations for yourself).

23-your kids will constantly stick things in their mouth ----- just make sure its not the astroglide bottle!!!!! 

Feel Free to add to this list!!! I know I will--- I had a lot more but I had a HUGE Brain Fart 

for mothers and new mothers and older mothers and Grandmothers!!!!  I hope you enjoyed this list.... hopefully it helped!!! Or gave you deja-vu  or brought back great memories!!!

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
