Wild Days

Totally Kidding
I can't even remember what we did Saturday
That's how exciting it was
I did sleep in until 8am
Doesn't sound like much 
but to a mom of 3 little ones 
and an early riser hubbs
8am might as well be noon
If I hadn't needed to nurse the baby 
I could have slept till 10, fo sho

Then Mark took all the boys to the gym
Should have gone too
But needed the quiet more than the workout
And the shower
All Alone

Seriously don't remember the rest of the day
Running errands and messing around the house

Sunday was suppose to be a church visit
But Christian had a rough night
I was super tired
And I tried to let Mark sleep in a little bit

We celebrated Mark's birthday last night since he is traveling this week
I will share those pictures on Wednesday
But he made his own diner
Works for me
We had steak
YUM

I think I have mentioned Colton's sleep issues 
He is making his way to our bed every.single.night.
GGRRRRRR
Saturday night I was up with Christian and his tummy ache
Connor was already in our bed
He and Mark were snoozin' HARD
I heard Colton open and close his door, twice
I finally got Christian calmed down and went to my room
Saw Mark, saw Connor, saw Precious (all on the bed)
And saw Frisco on his pillow
No Colton
Went to his room
No Colton
Checked Connor's top bunk
No Colton
Checked the closet
No Colton
(hey you never know)
Went back to my room
Maybe I missed him
Saw Mark
Saw Connor
Saw Precious
Saw Frisco, on the floor
If Frisco is on the floor.....
Who is on the pillow


COLTON
tried to take a picture, but it was too dark
I gathered up my little munchkin and put him back to bed
10 minutes later, he was back in my room
So we all slept together

I give up


Today our carpet is being installed downstairs in the basement
Playroom and Guestroom
Maybe I will want to go down there now?
When the installers got here and saw the furniture they were confused
Their ticket said it would be empty
My paperwork said they were to move the furniture
Lowe's called and wanted more money
We went round and round
Apparently they had not charged us correctly
I simply asked:
"so you made a mistake"
The gal danced around
I asked again
( I was not being rude at all, promise)
I have worked too many years in retail for that
Finally a supervisor said we would not be charged anymore
I would have paid
It's only fair
But come on folks
I swear I have the worst luck with this kind of crap


Speaking of crap....
I just went in to the bathroom to pee
Someone left skid marks
Come on Guys
REALLY
Can't you double flush?
Who do you think has to clean that?
Such is 
LIFE WITH BOYS



***on a side note***
I was trying to finish decorating before I shared pictures
But I have been cut off for now
So I will post some house pics this week

Christmas with Nanny







This year in our Christmas celebrations rotations, we will be spending Christmas day with my family. So we celebrated with Mark's family on Saturday evening. We went over to Nanny's house for dinner and presents. Jon and Charlene came over, and of course baby Carson (well it's not like they were going to leave him at home). I hope yall enjoy the pictures of him. My nephew is adorable and HUGE. He is 4 months and weighs as much as Colton. I just feel sorry for Nanny because here in a few months when she has all 3 at once, look out!!!! Connor, Colton, and Carson....that just sounds like trouble.






The boys had a great time. Well my 2, Carson can't really rip open presents yet. (Next year Char, don't worry). The presents were flying and toys were appearing and laughs and giggles were flowing. Of course Nanny hit the jack pot with a by-cle (AKA 4-wheeler) for Connor. He is already a pro at it. He holds the gas button down and around and around he goes. Luckily our house has a lot of tile and forms a circle going down the hall and around the kitchen. Aunt Char and Uncle Jon gave Connor some dinosaurs that were strapped in the box like they were gold. I think those are going to go extinct before we get them cut out. Who ever thought it was a good idea to put kids toys in the oxes like that with so many of those crazy twisty wore-y things?!?! I just don't get it. It was obviously a man, and not a mom!






Colton's toys were plentiful and great too. He got this Eeor (from pooh) who sings "if your happy and you know it clap your ears". Of course the ears clap!! It is too cute and Colton just giggles.
