Brownie trimmer

I admit it....I am a brownie trimmer. Lucky for me, my husband is a crooked cutter.

You know what I mean, right? When the pan of brownies reaches a completed row, and you realize that if you cut one, then it shows and everyone knows that you had two (maybe three) brownies to eat that day. Well, I will just trim the edge so it's like eating one really long skinny brownie. I can go back and 'trim' multiple times and I don't feel as bad about eating them. I have learned to do the same with rice Krispy treats. As I stated above, Bob cuts them very crooked, so I get to do a lot of trimming! Yum.

Fish

We have a fish tank full of fish. They make great pets. They don't chew up your furniture, shed hair, or pee on the floor. They don't have to be walked in the cold or rain, and there is never a debate about letting them sleep in the bed or on the floor on a mat. You can forget to feed them for a day and they are still okay, and if you leave for vacation, they make time release food disks. Some even have personalities...

Singing sign

I have seen this sign a few times and can't help but sing when I drive by. Bob was nice enough to tape it for me this time. It goes by fast, but look close at the bottom of the sign.They actually spent the money to put the musical notes on the 'official' sign. How cool.



(bummer, when I view it on my blog you can't see it very well...there is a musical staff across the whole bottom of the sign and notes that show the song)

Outdoors inside

Bob did a lot of bulb planting this year. We are getting see all the fruits of his labor. I brought in some of the fresh flowers last weekend.

Easter fun

Have you seen it yet? The Rice Krispy comercial where the mom is with her kids and they are making easter treats? They roll the snacks into 'eggs' and then dip them in chocolate and sprinkles....well I made some (without the kids...he's too young and the other one was at work :>)



Thanks for the bowls mom!!


It was actually hard to get the eggs to stick. Had to let them cool for awhile to become sticky, but not too much that they hardened.



Just don't tell anyone I used "Great Value' Krispy cereal and marshmallows...not the real thing.

Bald Baby

So...if you have been following from the beginning you know that Austin had a ton of hair when he was born.


Well recently, it's been falling out. I know that I shed a lot, I find my hair all over this house. but you can't really tell because I don't have bald spots. Not the case for my poor little one. When I pick him up in the morning, his sheets are covered with his hair :( And it's not very stylish for the poor guy. Take a look..





If it gets too bad, I may start rubbing the top of his head to make it match the rest.

Poor job

Man I have sucked at this blogging thing recently. I need to get on more and post updates. I am on the computer a lot, but I am usually reading what everyone else is up to and then don't have time to post what we have been up to. So here is a short recap without a lot of pictures....

Austin is now almost 3 months old and he is definitely a big baby. I compare him to friends kids who are 5-7 months, and Austin is the same size. He carries most of it in his cheeks and his tummy. He is in the 90% for height and weight so I guess that means he is proportioned.



My mother was in town for her second visit last week (She was on spring break and spent half in Maryland with my Dad looking at houses, and the other half with us) oh yeah...I think I forgot to tell people. My dad found a job after over 9 months of looking...it happens to be in Maryland so my parents are moving again. Indiana, to California, to Texas, to Maryland. If they go to North Dakota next they would have lived in all four edges of the US. It was great to have her here...I always seam to get so much more done when she is around. (It's probably because she does all my housework for me)



We also had a second set of visitors this month..the Kilmers braved the Atlanta traffic on their way back from Florida and parked at the best RV stop in Tifton - Our house. Lisa and Colton tagged along so we got to see everyone for a night. It was great to catch up, i just wish they could have stayed longer

That's all I can think of now so that's all you get...besides I have dishes soaking in the sink and have to go dry my hair because I am going out in public today to a baby shower. Bob has nighttime duty.
