Day 89: Dentist Day!

Today was the appointment I had been dreading. The dental appt. for Kwintyn in T.C. I had talked, and talked with him about it the weeks, and days before, and even used bribery so it hopefully would be less painless for everyone involved. This place was a pediatric dental office, and when we walked in, we were feeling pretty at ease. They had these beautiful paintings on the wall. The waiting area had a fish tank, like the one from Finding Nemo, and the walls were painting in a mural of the beach, and tropical animals. They had a tiki hut in a corner for the kids to play with, when you register you get a lei. We got called back, and the room that Kwin got was the Farm room. It had fields, barns, tractors, and all sorts of farm animals painted on the wall. They also had stuffed animals that were barnyard animals in a corner.

Kwin was doing so good, and I was thinking that it's all going to be just a matter of time before he has a melt down. The Dentist hasn't made his way in yet. The Dentist comes in, and we try a different approach with Kwin. Instead of him sitting in the chair, he sat with Frank in a stool, in a hugging position, and then he laid back into the Dentist's lap. He hesitated to open his mouth, but I gently reminded him, Toys R Us. Well all be a son of a gun!! He opened his mouth, and kept it open, and did not fight one bit. He listened to the Dentist when he said to bite down, and open again. I was SO, SO happy to see him comply, and be not stressed out. Frank said he was relaxed, and his muscles were not tense. I was SO proud of him!!

We also found out that our concern with his front teeth were not normal. When he was teething, and getting his top teeth in we noticed they didn't look straight & off centered. I had brought it up to his Doctor, and he said he didn't see anything that wasn't normal, and the Dentist last time, just really didn't get a good look. Well, he has an extra tooth!! He has an extra lateral incisor. Guess it happens 3/100 kids, so pretty normal. So instead of having 20 teeth, he has 21. Crazy!!! LOL

Appointment went great, and Kwintyn, and Chelsea both got a balloon animal. That's another extra touch they do to make the kids feel happy! Kwin picked a sword, and Chelsea picked a cat. Hers popped before we left. :( The conclusion of his appointment is that he needs to go have dental reconstruction for that chipped tooth, and the decay he has, which they said was not even the worst they seen, and they seen worse just today. That made me sad. I feel ashamed as a parent too. But it is like a surgery, and he will have to be put under anesthesia, and it will be done in a hospital. I know the hospital is a good one, so that makes me feel a bit better, but I'm so worried, amongst a million other feelings. I hope he does well, and if we need to use the Toys R Us bribe again, then by golly we are!! I can breathe easy for a little while, he won't be getting this done till June. So lots of mental prepness for Mom & Kwin in the months to come. Just so happy he did so well today.


Big Boy!!!

Day 88: A snip, snip, here......

And a snip, snip there, and you end up with some good looking guys!! Frank & Kwintyn got their haircut today. They are picky about who cuts their hair, and so they both HAD to go to Val. She is pretty good. :) And she can deal with Kwin. Don't think another hair stylist could deal with him. lol ;) I wanted his hair to be shorter, but of course he couldn't hold still long enough, and Val was afraid to snip his ear. So this is his good enough hair cut. I think it looks adorable, and I still marvel at his head of hair. Hahaha Was such a little baldy for so long! I knew he'd end up with good locks, I kept telling him to have patience. :)

                                                Daddy & Me haircut!

Day 87: Five Dollar Footlong....

At Subway!!! We had Subway for dinner tonight, as I forgot to get a few things on my grocery list. And more less I just didn't feel like cooking tonight. :/ haha Kwinyn & Chelsea got a kids meal, and they got a really neat Muppet's bag with it. Chelsea got Animal, her favorite character, and Kwin got the bag that is pictured. He kept looking for the toy in his kids meal, and I kept telling him the bag is his toy. Hahaha I'm sure it will come in handy when he realizes it can hold all sorts of things, as he likes to put things in bags like he is shopping. I think I want a Muppet's bag now. I think I would get Kermit the Frog. :)


Muppet bags at Subway

Day 86: Movie Night!

We bought another movie this week. Last week we bought frozen, this week we bought Despicable Me 2. It was such a funny movie, all the kids liked it, and we all had a lot of laughs. Not sure if the kids have watched Despicable Me or not, I haven't seen the whole movie, and so we need to get that movie. As we were watching the movie, Sarge was up on the couch laying with Chelsea. I usually don't let the dogs on the couch, but this looked too cute! He moved, but it still shows cuteness. She has a nice size scratch on her face from Maggie, I guess she tired to lay with Maggie on the couch, and Maggie got her right by the eye. SO glad it didn't get her eye, it was a close one. Chelsea wasn't upset, and informed me that it was an accident, and said it a few times. Somehow something smells foul about that....just a gut feeling I get. ;) lol

                                                        Movies & Snuggles

Day 85: Another TBT!

This throw back Thursday pic just sums up my whole week. Nuff said.

                                                   Driving Mom Bat Shit Crazy!

Day 84: Feed the bird, No the squirrels!

Wanted to feed the birds today, but Kwin said we should feed the squirrels instead. He saw 3 in the yard today. So now we have chickadees & squirrels in the yard, and Brownie is just loving the view form the window. She does this silent meow, then has a weird meow come out, and her mouth does this twitch thing, it's awfully funny. :) He's getting a haircut Sunday, by the way. lol

Feeding the squirrels

Day 83: Kwintyn's Animal Shelter

Kwintyn made up his own animal shelter today. He had fun playing with Chelsea's Littlest Pet Shop house, and animals. Kept him occupied for a bit. And again, late.

Kwin's Animal Shelter

Day 82: Shutterfly

Had to get my book finished before the free book code expired. Made Kwintyn his own ABC book! Posting late. Not a good pic either, I was busy & tired. lol

Working on my free book

Day 81: The Walking Dead

Ssshh! The Walking Dead is on! And yes, I am very late on all my posts this week. Been busy being overwhelmed.

Walking Dead Night

Day 80: Spring, where are you?!

So it's the second day into Spring. Yet it's still a winter wonderland. Just got a few more inches of snow last night! Snow banks still as tall as the house, and just white crap all over. It's depressing, especially when the calendar says it's Spring. Everybody is getting cabin fever, and just getting on each others nerves. Today we ended up buying the movie Frozen today. I heard all the hype about this movie, and Chelsea did want to see it when it came out this past Winter, she has an Elsa doll already. I was surprised to see the boys stay upstairs to watch this movie.

 Kameron was invited to a friends tonight. Actually he was invited to do a soccer tournament, one of the players got hurt, and his friends thought of him, and so he is staying the night with his buddy, and they will head over to Petoskey to do this tournament, which will be all day. He was excited to go, as he likes to play soccer. Which reminded me that I HAVE to sign the kids up for soccer this year! I missed registration last year, so I have to keep my eyes & ears open for this year. Kameron & Chelsea are wanting to play. I wish that Kwin could play, but they don't have age groups that young. I need to start looking into something for him. I think he would enjoy an activity.

The movie was good. I liked it, but didn't love it. :/ I guess with all the hype, I thought it would be better? It was funny, and I laughed quite a bit, and it was a sweet story. It also had really great effects & graphics. I wish we had the cable cord so we could have watched it on Blu-Ray. We borrowed Keagan's PS3 to watch it, since our DVD player took a poop a while ago. We actually use the old PS to watch movies. lol It was worth the buy, and I am happy we bought it. Just reminds me that we are way behind in our Disney movie collection.

Day 79: Bicycle!!

Did you play the bicycle game as a kid? Or was that something that we just made up? LOL The things we had to do, to keep ourselves entertained as kids, compared to kids these days. Gosh, I sound like an old fuddy duddy there. haha! I told Chelsea & Kwintyn that this is called the bicycle game, and that they reminded me of this game. Kwintyn seemed to have more fun, as Chelsea was pre-occupied with a game. Typical Friday here, Frank got back into town, and Kwin had another session at counseling. He really likes going. Picked Kam up from running club. The only unusual thing was I had a late nap!! Frank let me lie down for a bit, and I got up just before 8pm. Was nice!

Bicycle game!!

Day 78: Stuffed, and Mounted.

Hehehe...:D Kyle is pretty much done with his squirrel. It just has a few more touches that need to be done. Right now it looks like it's getting a round of acupuncture done. I didn't think he would be bringing it home today, so imagine my reaction when he started walking up to my truck with this squirrel. If you haven't read the previous post about my fear of fur, then go read it. :P I just don't like this kind of stuff, and Kyle finds it funny. He has been messing with me, since he started this Taxidermy class. I don't know why this stuff bugs me, I grew up around mounted animals my whole life. I could never own a fur coat, I would just cringe. What a weird phobia, huh?! I guess I suffer from Doraphobia, but just a mild case. LOL Kyle's Taxidermy teacher is retiring this year, he has been teaching taxidermy for 31 years, or so. He also is a science teacher. Today this teacher told Kyle that he was his last student in taxidermy, throughout 31 years! Kyle was the last one to finish his project today. He has to take it back to school for pictures, and such. I told him he should have just kept it at school until then. hahaha I'm proud of him, and he really enjoyed this class.

Kyle & his Squirrel

Day 77: You need a bath, kid!

What a messy, but Oh, so cute face! He's got stuff in his hair too. LOL This boy needs a bath! He needs a haircut too, which he will be getting one soon. Appointment is already set. Kwintyn looks like a big boy in this picture!! I can remember when he lacked hair, and was wondering if he'd get any. Now I can't keep it combed, because #1. He hates his hair combed, and will mess it up. And #2. It just fly's away, & never stays put.

Messy but cute!

Day 76: After-School Fun

Kwintyn tried to play the PlayStation today. Chelsea has been wanting to play it, so I let her. It's a good incentive to get her to do her homework. :) Kwintyn doesn't ever play video games, so I thought this looked cute. Him sitting on the stool, with the controller in his hand, all eyes on the T.V. absorbing it all. Chelsea however did not like it when he took over playing, he pretty much just stole her controller when she got up for a minute. Sharing opportunity. :) And yes this post is late. Mommy was busy. hahaha!

Games, snacks, & arguing. Fun!

Day 75: Happy St. Patty's Day!

I'll always be ready, and sporting green when St. Patrick's Day comes along. Thanks to the tattoo I got, I have green for life. :) I got this tattoo to represent the kids, I still need to incorporate Kwintyn into this tattoo somehow. I'm thinking a snowflake or something like that. The shamrock represents Keagan, Kyle, & Kameron, as their birthdays are all within days of St. Patty's day, and I the pink rose represents Chelsea, because that was the first flower I received the day she was born. I love pink roses now, and the roses were from my Mom. And the red red ribbon ties them all together, and I thought red represents love, and well it looked nice with the green. ;) I need to add Kwin in there sometime real soon. I would love to get another tattoo as well. :D

It's not a great picture, and my foot looks horrid. I just took my sock off, and you can see the lines. It looks much better in person. Although it has faded a little, I have had it for 5 yrs now. :)

                                                            My Lucky Charm.

                                                          The day I got it done.

Day 74: Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday!!

Today is Keagan & Kyle's 15th birthday!!! I just can't believe they are growing up, and are like these young adults! It's just crazy!! Their age combined is almost how old I am! lol They will be driving soon, and that is scary. It reminds me of the time we were working on our house. Usually I looked the door to keep the kids out, but I guess I forgot this one time. Well the boys were playing outside, and we were working inside, I believe we even had the door open. Well I look out the window, and see my van rolling down the driveway!!! I run, and slip on the floor covering we had out, as we had new floors put in & we still had some work to be done. Thankfully when I got out there nobody was hurt. The van ended up backing into the tool trailer, and mailbox, and that is what stopped it from going into the road. The boys went into the van & had hit neutral, and since the house is on an incline, it rolled down hill. That was SO scary!! And they got into SO much trouble that day. The car ride home that evening was a quiet one, and they never went into my vehicle when they were not allowed. So much shenanigans these boys have gotten into! I fear these big teen years, it's like these are the moments that kinda mold, and make an impression in their life. I'm not sure if I am ready for this next parenting step! But I guess it's coming whether I am ready, or not.

Happy Birthday Keagan, and Kyle! I love you so much, and I am so happy that I have you both. I felt so special having you two, and you gave me the gift I have always wanted, and that was being called, "Mom". So proud of you boys!

Day 73: Birthday Party

Today we had the boys' get together. I don't know why I say party, because it was just a simple gathering with cake, ice cream, and hourderves, and punch. No decorations, no balloons, no goody bags, those days are over for the boys. They really could care less about a party. All they want is food, friends, and to have a fun time, sounds like a typical teen boy. Not too many people came, but it was kinda nice. I still some how manged to be a little bitchy. :/ I guess I don't play host well, because I get stressed, then that B comes out a little. But those who love me, know that I am a B, so they'll get over it. Hahaha! Each boy had a friend show up! Sometimes we can end up with one of the boys' friends not coming, and they get a little bummed. I've been having a good ol' time embarrassing the boys in front of their friends, especially Keagan & Kyle. Said if they got bored I have home videos of the kids they can watch. One has Keagan naked & he's standing on a table. Then Frank chimes in, and says they can watch their birth video. LOL! I said I don't have Keagan, & Kyle's but I have Kam's. I do however have a picture of Keagan's head coming out. Keagan then starts asking questions, where is it? In my under wear drawer, so don't ever go snooping through there. He asks "Why is it in there?" I said Well do you want me to put it in a picture frame, and have it out on display? LOL You can see how much fun I was having. I ended up embarrassing him, cause I he started to throw stuff at me. hahaha

 We had a nice time, and I hope the boys enjoyed everything. I messed up the dinner, because I forgot to buy a chili packet for my Coney sauce! Keagan was the only one who was upset. lol Kyle wanted a pie instead of cake, so that is what he got. And Keagan & Kam shared a cake, that I just picked up from Walmart. It was in the Monster theme, the beverage. I feel guilty in a way because I didn't go all out for their birthday like I usually do, but they are getting older, and it's just hard for this Mom to take that in. Forgot to get cards too, so Frank bought some this morning. I made a fuss over the cards. He did a good job picking them out as they were nice sentimental cards, and he actually read each one! BUT it said "We're so proud of the man you have become." The word MAN just didn't sit right with me. They are not MEN yet. No, No, No, NO!! They are young men. Sooooo....the cards are being saved for another birthday, and I had to find some new cards. Frank calls his Mom up as she use to work at a Hallmark, and had tons of cards. He said to bring some funny cards. Well what does she bring?! Sentimental cards! And one has the word MAN in it!! Ahhhhhh!!! They are not MEN! Hahaha! The day will come when they are men, and I, in the meantime will be cherishing these memories & moments I have with my wonderful, smart, loving, young men these boys have grown in to be. :) Happy Day, Boys! I love you!!

                                             Happy Birthday to You, and You, and You!!

Day 72: Happy Birthday, to my Wonderful Son.

Today Kameron turns 13!!! How will I ever survive having 3 teenagers, and a toddler in the house?! Please pray for my sanity!! I can remember being pregnant with Kameron, and my biggest fear was having him on Keagan & Kyle's birthday. I did not want them to share a birthday, but ironically they do.  He came 3 weeks early, and I was eager to have him. I do often wonder at times if I just let nature take it's course, when he would have really came into the world. I know he would have been a big baby! He came in at a whopping 7pds 13oz. so good size for being early. He had a no issues at all, and was a good baby. He loves sports, and he is one tough dude!! He has a good head on his shoulders, and he is a great kid! I, his Mother will say that kind of stuff, but some of these words I wrote, others have said too. So I know my words are true. ;)

Today I had a fun idea of re-creating a picture I had posted on my facebook, of Kam & I. Really didn't think Kameron would be eager to do, and thought he would refuse, he wasn't eager, but he did join the fun. This was just FUN!! I have always said I wanted to do this with the kids when they were much older, but why wait?! All you need is just an old pic, and then just re-create that one. I just think they are funnier when there is a huge age gap when the re-creation happens. LOL Google some, they are so funny! I even have some bloopers from this re-creation shoot, and it just makes it that much better! hahaha!

Happy Birthday, Kameron! I love you & I am so proud of the young man that you are becoming. I know you have a bright future ahead. Keep up all the good work, and always be yourself...unless you can be Batman....then be Batman. ;P

 
                                                Birthday fun re-creating family pics.

Day 71: TBT #2

Throw back Thursday number two! It's pretty much because I was busy all day, and well this is easy. LOL And it's close to the boys' birthdays', so I thought I would reflect back. Today is Kameron's last day being 12. Sniff!!! Tomorrow he will be a Teenager!!! I just can't believe how fast my boys grew up. It's mind boggling! You never ever realize how much people grow, until you have kids. I never stopped to think how my parents felt about me growing up. I mean if I feel old, they have got to feel ancient. ;P Hahaha! I also take pride on how much they have grown, and how smart they have become. So it's not all sadness I feel when their birthdays approach. It surely is bittersweet.

                                                               My sweet boys!

Day 70: Hand me downs

Kwintyn is wearing one of the outfits that was his brothers today. It was either Keagan or Kyle's, then passed down to Kam, and now to Kwin. I'm REALLY surprised the pants fit, this outfit is a 3T, Carter's brand. Well the waist fits perfect, and there is a lot of length. O.o Look's like sizes have changed over the years, because we have Carter's 3T pants, and they fall off Kwintyn! They had to have changed their size! It says, I think, 30-? pds, so seems logical, but the waist fits really well. I wish I could find a picture of  one of the boys in this outfit, I'm sure I have a picture, I just don't have the time to look right now.

Trying to get things around for the boys' birthday is turning out to be a disaster. I have still so much to do, and it's not even going to be a big party. Heck, I don't think the turn out will be well either. Which is fine, because I really didn't want to do a big shindig anyways. And the boys' really don't seem to care too much anyways. Well, got lots to do.....until tomorrow.

Kwintyn wearing his bro's clothes.

Day 69: Goosebumps

Chelsea had library today, and she picked this R.L.Stine Goosebump book. I LOVED the R.L. Stine books, and was read soo many of them. I wasn't much into the Goosebumps, but I did read a few. I liked other novels he had. I sold them all years ago in a yard sale, and they were sold to a Grandpa who was buying them for his Granddaughter. Hope she enjoyed them as much as I did. This book that Chelsea borrowed, I have never seen. I think there has been a few new Goosebump books come out since I stopped reading them. Hope this one is a good one!

Day 68: Happy Monday!

Well for a Monday, it sure was a beauty out today! Kwintyn & I went outside today. He played, while I picked up dog poop. There is going to be a ton of poop come Spring. Was a nice day, high 40's, and all we needed was a sweatshirt today, was wonderful!! While I was down stairs doing laundry, I remembered that I had some clothes that were the boys' clothes I had put aside for Kwin. I looked through the bin just a while ago, and knew there were some 4T's in there, well I found a few 3T's too! I think the 4T sweaters & sweatshirts will come in handy now, and some shirts he could wear, just not sure about those darn pants! We always have such a hard time cause he is so darn skinny in the waist! I pulled a quite a few shirts, 3 outfits, that were 3pc sets, 3 sweatshirts, 1 pair of pj's, and 1 pair of pants. Made me happy, but sad going through this stuff. I was happy because Kwin was getting some of his brothers' hand me downs, and yet at the same time I was sad knowing the boys wore those tiny clothes at one time. But I think it's cool that I kept them, and they still look nice, and in style. He's going to be set when he gets to size 4/5, & 6/7! I have like 4-5 garbage bags filled of clothes, coats, and possibly shoes, in storage for him. It will put a smile on my face when he wears these clothes, as it will bring lots of memories back. Like the striped sweater that was Kameron's, and he is wearing that in his Pre-K pic, and I remember how cute he looked in that sweater!

Happy Monday!

Day 67: Wii Play

The Wii usually doesn't get played with that much anymore. It's usually used to watch YouTube videos, mostly Curious George, & Hobby Kids. Today a game was actually played on it! lol Chelsea wanted to play it and she picked Lego, Indiana Jones. I'm trying to think how long we have had the Wii.....2009? I know it was out for a while before we got one. I really want to get the game Just Dance, I think Chelsea would be the only person to enjoy that game with me. :)

Wii Play :)

Day 66: Driven

Zoooom......Kwintyn & I played with Wheelies today. Well I was forced to play. haha Earlier in the day I had to make a road for him. I don't understand why he can't try by himself?! He's always "You do it, Mom!" Well why don't you try, I say. "No, you do it!!" I know the day will come & he will fight me to Do it himself. So I guess I will enjoy this for now, but will say it can get very annoying. LOL Kwintyn also had his first counselling session today. It went well, and he did better than I had thought. He stepped away from my side, and played with all the cool toys they had there. His counselor was asking him questions, like "Do you like that ball?" And he would nod yes, I didn't think he would acknowledge her. He want to go back , and he said he had fun. So that is good!! My goal is to get to the bottom of these horrible temper tantrums, and fits. I'm also looking into Chelsea going there, and starting up Cognitive Behavior Therapy on her again. Hopefully we can get somewhere with the both of them this year. Best of luck to us, and may we drive down the right road this time.

Go Speed Racer, Go!!!

Day 65: Oh how many feet you meet?!

Oh poor Kyle!! He hurt his toe today in gym class. Well I guess some kid kicked his foot. Guess they were playing some kick ball game. Annnnd like usual, I had nothing for today, so Kyle is my victim today. I saw him wrapping his toes up in the bathroom, and I start snapping pictures, and he's all like "What are you doing?" LOL He now wants me to write a note to excuse him from gym class tomorrow. Of course I will, but good luck buddy! You usually need a Dr's note, not one from Mom. ;) These kids of mine really chalk it up when they get hurt, or not feeling well......"Oh!" "I can't do that my foot hurts." " I can't do that cause of my fingers." Eh, I'm a big ol' baby too, I don't blame em! haha But sometimes I'm just like, really?! REALLY?! Lets talk about pain, kids.....wah waaah wah, wah waaah wah wah.....I'm sure that is what they hear. ;) Momma's crabby today, and SORE too! LOL I do feel bad for him, and I am sure it hurts like Hell. I always feel bad when the kids don't feel well, or are hurt, and can't make them feel better. :( Hopefully he didn't break the damn thing! BOYS!!! Ay yi yi, and to think there are many more injuries to come.......JOY!!! :D


                                          Slow feet, quick feet. Trick feet, sick feet....

Day 64: Green Milk.

Today at the grocery store Kwin wanted to pick out his chocolate milk, but this green milk caught his eye instead. So since it's the month of the Irish, I decided to give it a try. Go Green, right?! ;) I did end up buying the chocolate milk too, just in case he did not like it for some reason, plus it was on sale. :D Chelsea was even excited to try it! I took a sip of hers, and it's not to bad. It's different, but not in a bad way. I could get use to this green milk. I bet it would be really good in oatmeal, guess I know what I'm having for breakfast tomorrow. :)

                             What goes good with green milk, why cookies....DUH!!

Day 63: Mine...Mine...Mine....

Kameron actually asked me if I had a pic of the day, and if I didn't he had something. Awesome!! He showed me the drawing he made in Art. I thought the drawing reminded me of the sea gulls on Finding Nemo, those guys always crack me up....mine.....mine.....mine..mine...mine.....LOL He told they were not sea gulls, and that they were pelicans. I seen that son, but thanks for that fact. ;) I asked him why of all animals he picked the Pelican?! The teacher had them pick a Beanie Baby to draw, and that is what he picked from the choices. They were doing a project on "Model of Animals". Just glad he helped with my pic today. Made that easy. :)

Day 62: Zulily

I ordered a few things for Kwintyn off of Zulily last month. Their shipping is slow, so I had to wait a month to even get my stuff. They explain why, so I knew it would take a while to get here, but I kept checking my account anyways. I got excited when I saw that they had shipped it, and was eagerly waiting for it to get here.  It arrived today, I am still waiting on 1 item, but I was super excited to show Kwin his shirts I bought him. I open them up one by one, since they were all packaged separate, and with each one I opened I was disappointed. 3, of the shirts were way to small!! I was upset, because with Zulily you cannot return orders, it's a final sale. I ordered 3 shirts, size 3T, 1 in a 4T, and a sweatshirt in a 4T. 3T fit Kwin perfect, and so I thought ordering the 4T he could grow into it. Well the 3T's look like a 2T, and the 4T's look like a 3T.  This was my first time ordering through Zulily, so I did not know how there sizes ran, but I always checked the sizes before ordering. Plus I thought ordering a 4T was going a bit bigger to be on the safe side, it fits him, but it doesn't look like it for long. :( I did contact Zulily, and they were great!! I got credited on my Zulily account, they could have took a different approach but they wanted their customer to be happy. :) Plus if those shirts ever do come back, I will get notified, and then will be able to buy them again. Hopefully they will have them again. You see, Zulily is a site that gives deals on the items they sell, so hence the final sale, and no return policy. I love the site, and as I said before, this was my first order I placed with them...even though I have been on there since 2011....I thought I wasn't going to be a returning customer, but they treat their customers great, and so I will continue to shop on Zulily. Plus it's hard not to resist buying from there, they have a lot of cute stuff!

                            Kwintyn's Curious George shirt!!!

Day 61: Reading

Well I had plans of doing a post about the great Dr. Seuss, but the kids picked something else to read tonight. Really, Kids?!?!? lol I have to say that Dr Seuss is my favorite author!! I'm not feeling well, so Kyle was kind, and he read to Chelsea tonight. As I was in the bathroom, I could hear him asking her what book she wanted to read. She kept saying no to everything. He even offered her to read a book from his kindle. He kept pushing her to read the Walking Dead, comic book with him. I get out of the shower, and hear Kyle reading to her, so I threw on my clothes, and grabbed my camera & took a pic. Well Chelsea looks mad as hell, so I'm not using that picture, plus she didn't have pants on. haha She had tights on, so not gonna post that pic, but I do have evidence of this sibling bonding. LOL She did not look like she was enjoying the Walking Dead book. Hey, maybe next time you will read that Dr. Seuss book like Mom suggested? My kids just don't like to listen to me, when will they ever learn? ;) Although Chelsea did sport her Dr. Seuss shirt on Friday, that reads "Stay calm, and read on. In all of the picture projects I have done so far, I have always honored the greatest "Dr." that lived, Theodor Seuss Geisel. Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!!

A few Oldie's from my 2010 project, just to represent the great Dr. Seuss!

Day 60: Happy Meal

Today is March 1st!! Come on', Spring!! As always I am procrastinating, and have nothing for the boys' birthday party. I don't even know what they want, I asked, and Kyle said they needed to have a council meeting. Oh for Pete's sake! LOL 3, Teenager's soon.....Dun. Dun...Duuuunnnnn. Today I got to sleep in, which was lovely!! But that made for a late start in the day, and we had some shopping to do, and that always leaves us looking at a late dinner. So, we picked up McDonald's on the way home. :/ Kid's got a cool Lego the movie, cup out of it. :) I thought this little goat on the bag was quite cute. And the kids do like goats. Chelsea likes to watch screaming goat videos on her tablet. Hahaha, it's kinda scary. LOL Kwintyn thinks it's pretty funny, too.

If the sheep goes Baa, What does the goat say?!?!?
