Happy Valentine's Day!

Today we enjoyed an unconventional Valentine's Day---we were entertained and loved the company of our kids.

It began with Krispy Kreme's in the car for breakfast. Deelish! Our house still reeked of oil based primer courtesy of our unfinished, but soon to be finished basement, so we evacuated for the morning.

Costco was our first stop where we browsed and sampled. Whitney also got to try on a $68,000 (yes that is correct, no typos here) 3 carat diamond ring---that probably won't sell in our town anytime soon. It was amazing! Find a rich one Whit, that is my advice OR try the CZ, no one will ever know:)!

Jeff surprised me (in the store at least--that is kind of his style which cracks me up!) with these beautiful flowers. I will enjoy them all week.

We ate at Craigo's buffet for lunch. A great date for all 6 of us.


And then we enjoyed Bolt at the dollar theater. Entertaining flick if you have not seen it yet! The rest of the evening was calm and lacked action. Just how we like it! The kids did miss the sugar cookie thing---we have plans for Feb 15th!

Similarities?

Wowsers!

Inspector Gadget at 10:30pm when you should be deep into REM?
Uhhhmm, I don't think so! Go, Go Gadget and get back into bed!

Just a note...

My 26 month old came with the alert twice today of his need to go psssssss (he doesn't say pee yet)in the potty and produced. Completely surprised and filled with joy am I. I just wish I felt like I had the time this month to start the big boy undiee thing that is always such a barrel full of laughs and fun monkeys. Maybe in March. I will keep you abreast on the subject.

Seriously, I have a perma-grin on my face thinking my diaper days after almost 10 years are coming to a close. Pocatello Landfill is singing my praises, and I am singing some of my own.

One liners for the day!

These and the tone of voice used made me think...should I discipline or just laugh!


Well, that's YOUR problem.

Mom, you are not the boss of the world (Said with Gusto), Heavenly Father is (A little less Gusto).

Elmo is THE weirdest little red fuzz ball!

I am TIRED of you calling me Birthday Boy!

Don't get snippy with me!

#4, You Are Lucky #4

My friend Melina tagged me...open your 4th picture file, post the 4th picture and embellish.


Here it is. Lucky #4, is my husband holding our 4th child Wes a few minutes after he was born. I love how Jeff's head is turned looking into that sweet puffy face. He always holds our babies and talks to them just as the picture was captured.

Jeff was supposed to work that night. He did drive me to the hospital, checked me in and left me with my mom to "progress." He went downstairs to get my things (most important camera included) and to make sure his ER shift was covered. Later he proudly sauntered upstairs, without my things and CAMERA just in time for the nurse to tell me that that the time had come. (Just in case I did not know!) Wes' birth was crazy soooo fast, and completely N-A-T-U-R-A-L (a.k.a I ran out of time, I am still thinking to myself never do that again(without serious drugs), and I am glad I survived---along with the man that impregnated me and forgot the camera in the car)!! Let me not forget that Wes was 110% worth it. Can't imagine my life with out him. I love him and my amazing hilarious husband so, so much!

I tag Jill, Saunja, Caprice and Megan

Me, Talking to Myself After Church.....

Take a Chill (it really wasn't that bad after they fell asleep in sacrament)

Way to go Pepsuber! I am relaxed!
