Weekly Wrap

1) Make sure to write down all doctor appointments, the moment they are made. (oops!)

2) It's ok to have popcorn for breakfast once in awhile...or lunch....or dinner....

3) Go to a parent's house at least once a week for dinner, because they always cook your favorite foods. (Thanks daddy, for the roasted potatoes and all of the other goodies you made!! yum-o!!) And it does help a tad, to have a chef for a daddy!

4) Explosive poopy diapers at the library are not fun. Thanks Matthew.

5) Baby Bjorne is the best invention EVER! I have two hands again!

6) It's ok to relax and read a book while the babies are sleeping. (I just got the sequel to Pride and Prejudice, called Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife, and it's really really good!)

7) 4, 5, 6, 7, 8... is Adam's new favorite thing to say

8) 2 more weeks before classes start :(

9) one more month until Andy graduates (again...lol)!! Yay! Big party in the works, people.

and last but not least

10) Taking a shower with a 2 year old watching is quite the experience. sigh.

Funny Baby Clothes (That are super cute, too!)

One of my fellow bloggers introduced me to Trendy Tadpole baby clothes. These clothes are amazingly witty and are just TOO cute, not to buy. Go check out their website.

There are onsies and shirts that say things like: "I love Johnny Cash" and "Ab/Cd For those about to read we salute you". Then there are funny little ones, like this one:

This one is super cute, especially since I call Adam this on occasion!! haha.

And, best of all, the owner BLOGS on her site! I think there's something special to say about anyone who blogs.

So, go check them out, if you have kiddos!

This is the story of a girl....

Well, at least the last 7 years of me.... haha.

One of my fellow bloggers, Christina (sorry I didn't give you credit from the beginning!), posted a meme about the story of "you". It's basically getting a little more intimate with the people who read your blog and sharing a little more of your life. SO.... since I don't have any photos scanned in of me from when I was little, I guess I can at least share the last 7 years of my life...right? :)

My Senior Picture (17 years old)

Andy and I- while we were dating, before we were engaged


Our Engagement Picture (taken January 2001) - this is also my favorite picture of Andy... He's so handsome. :)

Our Wedding Day July 28, 2001 (Such babies. lol)

2002 Teaching (before I decided that I didn't want to do that anymore)


2003 Concert Going- the days before kids...sigh.


2004- Jessica's college Graduation

Pregnant with Adam- this was taken the day before he was born

Right when we found out I was pregnant again

Ohhh Pregnant... haha. 35 weeks with Matthew


Me with my boys :) Two months ago

I will admit that was fun. Sorry I don't have any pics younger than 17... Don't worry, not too exciting anyway. In the last 7 years, what has changed? My hair length and color. hahaha. And it's about to happen again, well the length anyway. Time for a chopping!

If you read my blog on a regular basis and want to participate in this fun little meme, please feel free to do so!

Theme Thursday: Exposure

So, I had NO idea whether or not I could participate in this weeks theme, until I remembered a photo I took, last summer, when I went to visit Amy in SC. It was my first time being EXPOSED to the south and to the ocean. So, here's one of my favorite photos from my first time being EXPOSED to the Atlantic Ocean (I just wish the date stamp had been turned off...grr):



As always, head on over to Picture This, to be exposed! :)

Matthew smiling! :)

I finally got pictures of Matthew smiling! :)



And a little video :) FYI- in the video, because you won't be able to tell, Adam is showing Matthew his "dun" which is "gum" and then he proudly shows us... funny boy.

Eight

ADAM JUST COUNTED TO 8
ALL BY HIMSELF!!!!!

BSM: Have your cake and eat it too

Oh, the fun of cake at birthday parties... Who invented red icing anyway?

Summer is ending, but the photos at Picture This are not! So go see them! :)
