three pages.

yesterday/today.

The boys yesterday. Yesterday Jacques had the day off. We surprised Jason at school with McDonald's then we took him to the state fair. It was wristband day so he rode everything. It was warm out and the lines were pretty long, but we survived. The boys loved the animals. Zachary gets super excited. I indulged the boys with yummies, some deep fat fried artery cloggin goodness otherwise know as the corn dog. I also gave them pure sugar aka: cotton candy. Obviously they loved it.
Quote of the Day: "Honey, You want me to buy you a state fair coffee cup for our anniversary?" I have nothing more to say to this. A coffee mug? Are you kidding me? Sheez!

Last night was not as full of sleep as the last few. I was up a lot dispensing out bottles to babys. Luckily when I got up at 615, the coffee was waiting. Thanks, Hubby.

Yesterday my camera hit over 8100 photos. Wow. That's a lot. I also saw that there is a photography contest on Post. I should check into it.

Yesterday our offer on the house was "officially" submitted. Hopefully we hear something this week. I'll let you know. We still are waiting to have it inspected. Then we will get some painting estimates. Did I mention that I am accepting all Lowe's gift cards for Christmas, Hanukkah and Veteran's Day?

This is a super short week for us. The hubby was off yesterday and Jason is off on Friday. There is no speech again this week. Tomorrow we are going costume shopping for Jason. He wants to be Bumble Bee. We have soccer Wednesday and Saturday. This weekend is also Boo at the Zoo.

I have some scrap pages to post later. Be back Then. Hugs.

accomplishment.

And Sunday Smiled.

Another amazing night involving sleep and a little somethin else. The babies stayed in their cribs again for a total of 3 nights in a row and the angels sang. I still get up to make bottles and plop them in their mugs, but I am okay with that. I get to crawl right back to bed. Then sleep.

There are only 2 weekends left till Halloween and we still have 3 major things to do: Buy a Costume, Visit the Pumpkin Patch, and Boo At The Zoo. These things are weighing heavy on my heart; I am going to try to accomplish at least 1 of them today.

Let's make today Lovely.

greetings, mr. friday.

Were you able to hear the upbeat tone in my title? That's because last night involved sleep and a lot of it. Today I am well rested, loving life, indulging in coffee and ready to fight global warming while wearing the cutest pink pumps and a cape. Yesterday I worked on updating 3 ongoing projects including the one in the photo above. I found it in the bottom of a drawer and it was started last October. It is a simple moleskin journal with note print outs about my day. I kept it up until December. It was fun to read through it a year later.. I will pick up where I left off and starting with this month.

So last night all 3 kids were in bed by 9 and I was by about 9:15. I did however miss the premier of CSI so I am a little bummed about that. I need a DVR. I am adding that to my Christmas list. Last night I noticed that not only is Ryan getting the 2nd top tooth, but a 3rd one as well. This kid is going to have a mouth full.
On with Today, Jason is at school and I am ready for some House. The babies are content. Tonight we are suppose to go to a USC Soccer Game with Jason's team to let them see a professional game. That should be fun, weather permitting. Tomorrow Jason has a game at 10:30 and a birthday party at 12:15. It will be a busy day. I am hoping for some down time and that the house will clean its self.

Let's Go Friday, I'll Race Ya.

Project Double Ohhhh 8

This could be it. We are looking at making an offer on this house. It is in a gated neighborhood and is HUGE. We are talking 2200+ square feet. But it needs some updates. We are having it painted and carpeted before we would move in. The people who were here prior have some sick sort of wallpaper fetish.. SCARY! There are a ton of photos on flickr and they all have notes on them about what I am thinking. Click on the pictures and move your mouse to the boxes to read them.
