Car Shopping

Jeremy and I did a little car shopping the other night and like car shopping usually is it wasn't a whole lot of fun. However, we got to hang out with each other and our little pal, James, so it wasn't all bad. The car Jeremy really wanted didn't really work out, the seller was a crook, but we found one that we both were happy with and Jeremy is already zip, zooming around town in it. I don't have a picture of it, but I have a picture of my two shoppers!

Christmas at Mammy and Papa's

We've just celebrated Christmas with my brother's family at my mom and Maxey's house. Christmas is just so much fun when kids are around. Watching Foster and James enjoy their new toys was such a delight. Our whole family has been extremely blessed this year and we have a lot to be thankful for.

James and Foster in their matching "Mammy and Papa Love You" pjs. (Does James' serious face not look just like Jeremy's?)

Can you tell that Foster LOVES to vacuum?

See. . . Christmas is so much fun with kids around!

Not Fun!!!

Giving breathing treatments is not fun! James hates it. I hate it. When will it end?

Whoops!

Well, I made the ultimate mess yesterday during dinner. While trying to hurry to the fussy baby who was yelling from his high chair last night I accidentally dropped his cup of squash on the floor. No big deal right? I have a dog, she can clean it up. . . right? Wrong! What I didn't know was that yesterday was "Make The Ultimate Mess Day" and on "Make The Ultimate Mess Day" you must and I mean must make the biggest mess possible. Well, I won the award for biggest mess because my 3 tablespoons of squash multiplied in thin air to about 6 cups of squash and not only splattered all over the floor, rug, trash can, fish tank, and laundry room doors, but it also made its way up the wall and all over the ceiling. (no that is not my hairy belly in the picture)

You would have thought that I let James hold his own spoon and then left the room for an hour. It was quite the mess. Thankfully, Jeremy is laid back about mommy made messes (now don't get me started on how he reacts to doggie made messes) and he helped me clean it up. Using our tallest chair and some pillows with a quilt he was able to reach the ceiling and begin his scrubbing. It's on nights like this when I miss having my garage where there is a nice tall ladder hanging up and you don't have to watch your husband risk his life to wash squash off the ceiling, but thankfully he survived.

Needless-to-say I will not be trying to carry two food dishes to the table again. It's just not worth it.

Scary Scary Bed Monster Plays Peek A Boo

Jeremy and James have this game they play in the mornings. Jeremy is "The Scary Scary Bed Monster" and James thinks it's so funny. I wish I could get a really funny video off our old camera onto the blog, but I can't so this is them playing peek-a-boo yesterday.

Also here is James trying to bite his beach ball.
