Random

So. I had a bunch of random pictures that I was going to write funny posts about. Well, I am just going to post the pictures now because I don't have the time to post the big funny story about them.

I found this on the bathroom floor one day. Any guesses as to what it was?....not a jellyfish, it is what happens to a 'poof' if you let the middle come untied. Bob broke it two days after I hung it in the shower.



Remember PEZ candy? Bob loves them and actually loaded the dispenser he got for Christmas from his mom.




I made a turkey in December. They really wanted to make sure we knew when it was done....hence two timers



Here ia a pic when Austin was a bit younger :). My brother sent us an official sash from the miss Teen Pageant. I look so official...and round.



Last month we had some friends over for Farkle and Fondue...Mom i got to use the crazy place mats!!! (Thanks for the set Kevin!)

Bargin days are here again

So...two weeks ago it snowed on Friday. Last week it was in the high 60s on Saturday. I thought the midwest was the only place with weird weather swings. Anyway, we decided to do some outside work because it was so nice. We went to Lowes and found the best deal ever. We got all these plants (16 containers of primrose) for.....


a grand total of $4.00. They were on a 90% off rack because they were 'hit by the cold spell that came through and need TLC'. Bonus!!!
This opportunity also allowed us to use Bob's new tool.

We highly recommend one of these if anyone does a lot of planting. We planted all those plants in like 10 min. It was amazing. Here is a video of how easy it was to dig the hole.

McDonalds

My most recent conversation at McDonalds Drive through...

Speaker: 'Welcome to McDonalds would you like to try one of our new Carmel frappy drinks?' (I forget the official name so for the purpose of this post I'll call it that)

Me: No thank you, I'll just have a Carmel Sundae

Speaker: 'We only have strawberry and Hot fudge'

Me: Out loud 'Okay, I'll take a strawberry one'
Me: In my head 'you have carmel frappy drinks, but not carmel sundae???'
hmmm...

Photo session

Not too much time to type. He is naping in the swing and I have a load of laundry I need to get folded and kitchen cleaned up before he wakes up to eat again. Here are a few photos for those of you who have not seen them on Facebook. A friend came over and had a photo shoot with Austin.

Diaper conversations

This was our conversation while changing Austin's diaper this evening...

Me: (while struggling to get his arm to straighten out and fit into the sleeve of his PJ's) I can't wait for him to dress himself

Bob: I can't wait for him to say something

Me: (With a grin) Like 'Mommy'? I say that to him all the time during the day! It's going to be his first word..'I love Mommy', ' Mommy'....

Bob: that's not fair you're cheating! (as he picks up Austin and leaves the room saying) Daddy....it's much easier to say, come on...Daddy, Daddy.....


I love our new life.....

Mishap in the Kitchen

Tonight Austin was a bit lonely and wanted to hang out with me. So I put him in the sling that I borrowed from a friend.



This is my view of my little kangaroo...so cute.



I was making brownies and happened to glance down while pouring the batter and saw this....



Yeah...that's what you think it is....look a little closer...



He is just like his father..wants to lick the bowl, I guess he figured I would just pick it up and put it back in his mouth.

Shout Out to West Side

Lisa, Austin is not quite as good as Colton on the "West Side" hand signal..but he's working on it.....
