Memories

Well time flies as you might know! I created a web page a few years back before I had heard about blogging! It was too much work and I didn't keep it up, but I wanted to post it here because evidently they are taking them all down and switching to a new server where you can drag and drop or something fancy! But I did this the old fashioned way (html, ftp). Some of the pics look all grainy because they were taken with an older digital camera. But there are some good ones and you can see my PJ's curly hair from when he was a baby and how he used to be so chubby!
I know some of you have seen this before but if you haven't or want to look again it's right here! Maybe I'll put a link on the side too!

Life

Well it's been about a week since I've posted! Funny to say that seeing how that seems like a long time, but not too long ago I was doing good to post once a week! Well of course life has been keeping me from blogging! We had a great Christmas! It was not over the top and we didn't have any HUGE events, which was nice. The kids got some stuff that they didn't really need (and a few things they did) and we got to enjoy some time with our close relatives! My grandma broke her hip two weeks ago and was in the hospital for a few days, then a rehab facility but made it home before Christmas! Praise the Lord!

My sister and her kids came back down for a visit to see my Grandma, so we had unexpectedly got to spend some time with her the past couple of days!

I have to tell you one of the 'kids' presents was a Wii from the in-laws, however my hubby and me have played it as much or more than them! I've got to stick a few pictures in so here's one my two older ones opening presents with their 15 year old uncle. He's a good uncle, always plays with them when we visit and doesn't complain too much when they won't stop attacking him!

And here is a shot that my husband and father-in-law thought would be great! I have a very similar shot of Blondie when he was about this age (that time encouraged by my husband and dad), I'm going to have to go dig out! Of course the bottle was cold, hence the look on his face!


Now I'm off to bed, so I can wake up in the morning! Don't worry my baby is not actually drinking beer! MORE pictures coming soon!

Teaser Tuesdays


This is only my second time posting one of these, but my book today is a book that someone posted a recommendation on! And I can't remember who or if it was a Tuesday Teaser or not, so if it was you(or you know who) kindly let me know so I can give them credit!

The book is The Paper Bag Christmas by Kevin Alan Milne
This was an easy, fast read that I felt was pretty uplifting! It was nice reading a Christmas Novel!

From page 5

"As with many Christmas stories, mine began on Santa's lap. But this was no ordinary Santa and he had anything but an ordinary lap."

Not Me Monday


It's time for Not Me Monday again! Time to tell be brutally honest and tell all about what you've done or 'not done' this week! To see more Not Me Monday's click on the big picture above to go to MckMama's!
I sure didn't forget it was even Monday since my kids are out of school, I mean my husband still went to work this morning, so how could I forget it was Monday? Uh yeah I didn't!
And I'm not wondering why my computer underlines in RED all of my contractions, I'm not completely questioning if 'didn't' is even a word and I surely didn't go look it up, that's silly!
My little curly head would not eat his dinner last night, not even taste one bite of his spaghetti, so he went w/out his advent chocolate and of course we did not say that he couldn't eat anything else besides spaghetti! He did then not wake up this morning throwing up and I'm not feeling totally guilty for being so hard on him last night!
And Sissy is not sitting on the couch saying she's sick (in a pitiful voice) because she's coughing, because if she was I would surely not say "your fine" because she is playing around, showing off and eating!
And I'm not writing about stuff that is going on this morning because I can't remember anything else to tell you! And I'm not trying to think of some reason to throw in a picture! Ya know like the fact that I never let my baby play with remote controls and for some reason we don't have more remotes than we do items to use them for!
