OH THE THINGS DADDY DO.......

So this evening I was finishing up some awaited chores.. I had let my self get behind on laundry and was getting a bit on the grouchy side because of this.. that would be a bit of my OCD.lol.. So when daddy got home I told him the kiddos where his while I dove into the laundry that has been yelling my name..  I decided to take the time to finish ALL the laundry and hang/fold/put away. Oh must I say such a wonderful feeling to have 4 baskets that are all EMPTY..WOO HOO..

So I was in Kenzies room organizing and hanging all her cloths up and I hear....
JUSTIN : Kayleigh im doing this but I better never catch you doing this do you understand!?
KAYLEIGH : giggles ok daddy but can I push her
ME : thinking oh hell what are they doing...?keep hanging...
JUSTIN : NO Kayleigh im gonna push it and this is the only time we are doing this..

SO WHILE HANGING UP HER LAUNDRY HERE CAME KENZIE............................................

I must admit I died laughing... he had stuck her in Kayleigh's doll stroller and was pushing her around the house!!  She was quite content and very amused.. I could hear her giggles before they cam by to visit me ..I must say daddy gets creative when the baby gets fussy.. How he thinks of these things who knows.. And most importantly I was able to finish all my laundry and even do a few other things around the house..Hope you are all having a great week!  Much Love, Jamie

IT'S A MUST HAVE.....

For Christmas this year my father n law got me the most rockin gift... I must say to all of you that despise dragging the vacuum out over a little dead grass the dog brought in, litter from the cats, and the mess after your little has just finished lunch/dinner and half is on the floor....I highly suggest you get one of these nifty guys..

It isnt like the other little floor vacs, this things gets down to business and gets the simple job done..It also has a hand vac attached and is so nice when you have kids and or pets to help keep the floors clean till you get your BIG heavy duty vac out which I do a deep clean every weekend but go over my floors with this like twice a day to keep the dog hair up and any dirt,crumbs,etc.. So nice too if you have wood floors... Okay sorta a boring blog but with the wonderful and quick job it has done for me over the last couple of weeks Id hate not having one.. So all you woman out there this is a must!!! Hope this really does come in handy for you guys.. Have a great night..  Much Love, Jamie

AND OSCAR WENT PLOP....................

Yipes.......So for those of you that know me, know that im a little on the anal side when it comes to cleaning. I hate messes, clutter, smells, and so on.. so yada yada I guess you could label me as OCD but I would rather be a neat freak than a pig..With that done and said it brings me to Oscar...

So Kayleigh has continued to nag us about getting another fish since George ( her last fish ) to a trip down the drain after I found him floating about a year ago.. So adios George...Well last week we gave in, got her a blueish crown tail male betta. She named him Oscar..Today the itty bitty tank looked cloudy so me being the anal one that I am I thought Id just QUICKLY dump some water out and refill it.. Well not so QUICK.. I had to do this like 10 times to flush all the yucky out. And as I was being so careful ( obviously not careful enough )that Oscar did not come flieing out with the water, PLOP their went old Oscar into the disposal... I felt around (GROSS) softly for about 3 min and managed to get him. I washed him off and put him in the tank.. I thought to my self  or actually said out loud holy hell that was close. Just as I thought we were good he kept trying to swim and would drift to the top.... I jumped on the phone called Justin and said bring home another Oscar and try to make it before Kayleigh gets home cause I think our's is gonna die.....OOOOPPPS I guess trying to be QUICK and leaving him in the tank while cleaning it wasnt to smart...

So I have decided me and fish dont mix.....

Hmmmm.nice clean tank where is the fish????

There he is! Poor dude can only manage at the top. Cant swim after the disposal tradgedy.OOOPPPS!

Soon he will be joining George...

HOPE YOU ALL ARE HAVING A WONDERFUL DAY !!!!

Im a BLOGGER...:)

Well, after many and I mean MANY trial and errors I think I finally am starting my long awaited blog.. I have wanted to start this for a couple of years so seeming that its the start of a brand new year here I am..

Not too much to update at the moment but there will be lots to come.. We had a great Holiday with my inlaws and truly feel that 2009 was a blessed year.. I feel the holidays came and went like lightning this year.. I think the older I get the faster time flies by.. To end the year Justin stuck his knife through one finger into the next at work while fixing something.. So as I sat and made my honey do list for him since he would have an extra day to accomplish things the phone rings, he was off to get stiched up.. SO MUCH FOR MY HONEY DO LIST! Its healing well just not so pretty.. But over all we had a fabulous holiday and enjoyed every min of it..

On another note my baby is going to be 8 months already on the 13th.. Not crawling yet but is a champion roller and manages to get to where she wants and what she wants in a blink of an eye.. She already is trouble managing to get into just about everything..Its darn cute and I just cherish every sec of her seeming she is our last..She is such a mommas girl and just precious..

Kayleigh returns to school tomorrow after a very long vacation it feels.. We are both ready for her to return..:) She had a geat Christmas and got way too much stuff.. OH MY...

Well, I am blabbing but I will atleast leave some pictures from our holidays...

Much love...Jamie
