My favorite thing right now...

is the "watch instantly" feature on my netflicks membership. I can watch movies and back episodes of tv shows on my PC anytime I want. Can I just say I want to lock myself in my office/craftroom and order up some shows and scrapbook all day. Too bad my kitchen is full of dirty dishes from the weekend and the laundry needs some attention today. Lets see chores or scrapbooking? I think we can all eat of paper today and I'm sure the kids have at least one more day of clean clothes.

Blessing Day!

Thank you sooooo much Kymberly for making this sweet little blessing outfit for Bodie. It was so special and everyone love it. I started to tear up when I put it on him. Thank you for such a thoughtful sweet gift.

The blessing was so nice. We had the family over to our house to bless Bodie. Maryanne and Rogers son Kitiona was blessed earlier at church. Anyways, I am exhausted because we have had family coming and going since Thanksgiving. We had an awesome day on Thanksgiving...good food, good friends and family and fun!

I've been tagged by Allison. She is in my side bar. I was supposed to follow some specific directions but I just want to get the seven random things about me down. I am trying to make them different from the 100 things about me from a few months back.

1. The strangest thing happens to me when I accidentally hit my head really hard on something or stub my toe...a naughty word just comes flying out of my mouth. It's not the same word each time, it just happens and for that few moments when my toe or head is just aching in pain I actually feel the emotion RAGE!
2. When I am working on something I don't like to get interrupted. Sometimes I don't start projects because I am afraid I will get interrupted and not finish them. (this tag for example)
3. I love to make lists so I can check off what I have done. It is the only way I survived taking 18 credits in college one spring. Sometimes I will add something to the list after I have done it just so I can check it off. There is a to do list waiting for me right now as I sit here typing these words.
4. People have described me as outgoing, bubbly, friendly, confident and all those words. But most the time a feel totally antisocial.
5. I could put butter on something every meal I eat. Therefore, I just don't eat it. I tried not to write about weird food habits but this one just snuck in there.
6. I have dreams about being an Olympic gymnast.
7. I like to watch documentaries about murders and how they solve them. I usually end up watching them when Ron isn't here and I end up going to bed terrified and scared out of my mind that the boogy man is going to get me and the kids. I have watched way to many of them. Even if I haven't watched one for awhile I still get creeped out at night in this big ol' house by myself.
8. Here is a bonus one...I just spell checked this and I think I misspelled over 10 words. I am the worst speller. My friend Nicole loves this about me...don't you Nicole! : )

Counting my blessings...

because in the last couple days I have had the following challenges:

1. I actually got lost on the way home from Dallas last night. Very strange thing, I actually missed the turn to our house...it was really foggy. I actually drove so far that I left polk county...after much prayer and a stop at a fire station we made it home. Yikes!
2. This morning with in five minutes of being out of bed I had been pooped on, puked on and I stepped in a puddle of pee on the bathroom floor. Joy!
3. The upstairs bathroom door got locked today and I had to play locksmith to get it open so Avery could take her bath. Oh boy!
4. Some guy took off with my car keys at the gym yesterday and I was in a panic for a few minutes before he came back! (Our keys look the same and he grabbed mine accidentally)
5. There is a mouse in our house. We brought some boxes in from the garage and he was in one of the boxes. I saw him scamper across one of our floors and then he disappeared. Amber, don't tell anyone what I said when I saw him!
6. I am currently typing with one hand because Bodie was hungry. It's not that hard.
7. I had a dinner date with a friend the other night and it was supposed to be just us girls and someone with testostone showed up...I had a great time Amber thanks for coming!

Basically I feel like the walls are closing in on me and I have to find a way to dig myself out! I am counting my blessings because I have sooooo much to be grateful for and I need to stop taking everthing so seriously.

Silly!

I was trying to get them loaded in the car and they were running around like this...this is all before having any candy at all....Yikes.

I am proud to say I didn't have any Halloween candy on Halloween. I know myself too well. If I have 1, I'll have 10 or 20. Plus I have lost 10lbs of the pregnancy weight since my 6 week check up so I want to keep up the good work with that! I'm thinking about starting a blog to journal my fitness goals but I don't have time for this one right now let alone another one.

Happy Halloween!

Avery wore her costume so many times by the time Halloween night rolled around that we misplaced her cat ears. She still looked like a kitty though with her nose painted and her little tail. I told her at one point during the week that she was the cutest little black kitty and she said "No, Mama I a scary kitty cat!"
Yee Haw! Rowdy and his little calf Bodie Man! Bodie took the longest nap on the afternoon of Halloween. I think he was just so comfortable and warm in his little cow suit all he could do was sleep.
Rowdy, givin' ya the saddle up pardner cue!
