31 Jan

so I am FINALLY catching up...its been a LONG week..here it is in a nutshell:

26: came home and cleaned Ben's room on my lunch break {amazing what you can do when no one is home}...went to the gym at 0530
27: Matt was sick today...Sam picked up her finished plate and I went to the gym again today {my knees are killing me}...my laptop is OFFICIALLY dead now :( so I am working off of the desktop Matt put together for me awhile back...
28: Did more gym stuff today {my knees still killing me!!}..Peyton was JUST Peyton today!! UGGGHHHHHH....
29: we drove around on our lunch break and just kinda scoped out the houses in the area {found a few we liked}....went back to a neighborhood after work and actaully went into one of the open homes and got some information...so we'll see...Peyton didn't have a nap today so he was asleep before we got home {we only live 10 mins from the babysitter!}...so Abby played with her PlayDoh while Peyton was napping and made "Krabby Patties!!!"...
30: I didn't feel good, woke up with a sore throat, but decided to take Abby to get her manicure and pedicure...she wasn't sure at first but then warmed up and got it done {Sam went with us and got a pedicure and I got my nails done}...then came home, got Ben and dropped him off at a birthday party..then went and got some drive thru lunch for the rest of us...Sam went to Katie's....stopped and got gas and cigs for Matt...then I was wiped out when I got home, took a nap with Peyton and slept until 7 pm {both os us}....even Ben took a nap after the birthday party! I felt so bad that I just got up, put my PJ's on and then laid on the sofa the rest of the night....
31: still stuffy, but feel a little better...cleaned a little house and did some laundry and Matt took Ben to go spend some of his money he still has leftover from XMAS....he got a Wii game that he wanted and Matt picked me up a cheap keyboard and mouse for like $20 at Wal-Mart...Ben still has $50 leftover so he is gonna save it to save up and buy a Nintendo DSi...so he is hoping to get enough cash to buy one for himself after his birthday :) He is good about keeping his money until he wants something {unlike the rest of us~!}...

so I did keep up with my picture a day so here they are :) I still haven't taken one today, but I will :)

25 Jan

here are my pics for the day :) I left work early and went and got my hair cut and clored {shhhhh don't tell naybody}...and then Matt picked me up, we walked around and shopped a little and then went and had a late lunch at a local Mexican restaurant :) So the kids are eating anything that can be heated in the microwave and they are all OK with that :) I'll cook tomorrow night~




I am going to enter the last picture in a contest at this blog!!!

24 Jan GO COLTS

YEAH BABY..MIAMI HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so yes, we are Colts fans!!! I had duty on Friday {24 hours and it always sucks} then hit the commissary and bought $438 worth of groceries :( and then packed my stuff up and headed to Jaci's to scrapbook!!!!I managed to finish 14 pages and make it to June in my 2007 album!!! I hope to get done in the next couple months so I can only be 2 years behind instead of 3!!!! Nadine brought Ding Dong cake and I managed to bring quite a bit home and I have been eating on it all day!!! the kids had popsicles, cake, and slim jims for breakfast...I just didn't have the energy to cook breakfast! but we did have steaks for dinner!!!!

so here are my pics....

21 Jan

so it has been CRAZY busy at home and work!!!!! Don't even remember half of it and too lazy to look in my log your memory binder to recall it!!! But today I s changing Peyton on the sofa and putting his clothes on when Fugs sorta fell down off the back of the sofa and scratched Peyton across the face :( I thought he got him in the eye, but he just scratched his face...when I dropped him off at daycare I let her know to call me if he didnt fel better or started favoring his eye. But I guess he laid down a little bit and then was fine. They spent 2 hours at the park this afternoon! I am so ready to get some scrapping doen at Jaci's this weekend! Think I need to get some pictures printed though, but I am gonna have to look :) and there won't be a blog post tomorrow since I have 24 hour duty at work :(

the wine bottle that mama made for me for XMAS 'cause my other one broke!!! I LOVE it!!! she drilled a hole in the back and put small XMAS lights in it and then decorated it



Ben with his gapped teeth!! he still has 2 permanent teeth that haven't grown in on the top :)


and poor dubs and his cat scratch :(

18 Jan

Noting exciting today...we just chilled all day but the weather was very nice! I am still getting the hang of my 50 mm lens and getting things in focus, but I got another great picture of Peyton eating a leftover cupcake from Abby's birthday!

17 Jan

nothing exciting today! The kids did get a bath, but I just put new PJ's on so it was less laundry I had to wash! The Chargers lost!!!!!!!!!! Go JETS! If you aren't aware we are Colts fans and they probably have a better chance against the Jets than the Chargers! Peyton slept for over 12 hours last night!! SO NICE!!! Matt tried to play Moo Uno with them, but Peyton gets a little too destructive!!! We will have to play with Abby when Peyton takes a nap! So I was working on decorating my blog {thanks to Melissa over at SSD} and so I needed my reading glasses to read the directions...I got up and Peyton decided he needed to wear them! So today's picture is him wearing my glasses!!! and I thought I would share my digital layput for my week 1 pics :) so that's it for now, check in tomorrow! by the way, the more I use my 50mm lens, the more I LOVE it!!!!!! today's picture is with that lens!

16 Jan Little Behind

ok...so I am a little behind on my blog posting, but I do have all my pics, just have to get them uploaded!!! Ben got a new haircut on Thursday...it was much needed...qand evidently nothing really note worthy has happened since then :P but I did go out with my "sistahs" last night and we had alot of fun...we ate at a local fancy restaurant, but I only had and appetizer because I didn't think I could eat a big meal and it was wonderful and all I needed!!!! I got the Calamri with bleu cheese dressing {which I do not like} but it was WONDERFUL!!!! Jaci got the tomatoes and mozzarella appetizer, Connie got chicken and waffles and Judy got the surf and turf and we all shared! Then Judy had room for cheesecake and we all had a little bite, it was DELICIOUS!!!! And of corase we took a goofy self timer picture before leaving! I will share it as my picture of the day for the 15th! The kids got their XMAS presents from my mom today and were pretty excited...but it's kinda funny that Peyton liked the dancing penguin thing the best!!!! He LOVES anything that moves and sings!!! Matt already put his Colts mug int he freezer and Abby is playing with her puppy dog! Ben is outside playing, so I will see what he got when he comes back in!

Gonna have sour cream enchiladas for dinner...YUM YUM.....so I gotta go get cracking...if anything changes between now and then I'll be back!!!
