We're off to Arizona for a week of fun in the sun & boy am I excited! I'm looking forward to a relaxing week. We're coming home the day before my brother Spencer's wedding, which will be another fun & exciting event! Many posts and pics to come....see ya next week!!
Wow! Jackson's already 2 months old. Time flies! He is such a happy baby (even after getting shots, as you can see!) and is getting chubby! Here are his current stats:
He knew he was in trouble- can you tell?! He used a whole pack of diaper wipes trying to clean it off before I could see what he had done! Thank goodness for Mr. Clean Magic Eraser's!!
Who is this guy, anyway? Most of you have probably never seen the Doctor Who series (and therefore will not care at all about this post), but I grew up watching it thanks to my mom. It's been around for ages & the BBC has recently reincarnated it with this new guy. I've watched it once & was less than thrilled. I'm more of a purist, I guess. My favorite Doctor is Tom Baker, hands down.
Maybe I'll have to watch it again with a better attitude. Who knows, it may grow on me.
This has been a really boring week....can you tell?! We did go to my Aunt Anita's last night to watch the 24th of July fireworks, which is always fun- forgot my camera, of course! Other than that nothing exciting has happened. I haven't been on the computer too much this week as I've been watching the last season of Arrested Development (again!) during the kids' naps as well as re-reading Harry Potter #6 so I can read the final book- which I cannot wait to do! I'll admit it, I'm a H.P.E. (Harry Potter Enthusiast). I think I may be turning the kids into H.P.E.'s, too. Kensie still remembers sitting on her potty watching Harry Potter while drinking juice boxes (who knew Harry Potter was such a great potty-training tool?)! She is already planning on being Hermione for Halloween, thanks in part to the school uniform my parents brought back from London for her. Lincoln is also becoming interested in Harry Potter, though he is also interested in Peter Pan and more often than not calls them both Peter Potter. It takes awhile to figure out which one he is actually referring to!
My sister-in-law, Alayna, sent me this & I think it is both hilarious and a little spooky!! Chris Farley fans everywhere are jumping for joy- although I'm not sure "fat guy in a little coat" will be as funny now that he's a girl!! What's her name, I wonder? I hope it's Christina. That would really make me a believer.
So, I've had an excruciating sore throat all week. Went to the dr. today & sure enough....STREP THROAT! Sweet! I have no idea how I might have contracted this lovely illness. No one else in the fam has it, & I haven't been kissing any strangers lately :) What a great week for Matt to be working until 10 p.m. The kids can't seem to grasp the concept that they can't have a sip of my drink, or a bite of my food (which has been tomato soup every meal for the past 3 days) or they will get sick! I'm hoping they don't get it. Hopefully I'll feel better in a few days now that I've got meds! Anyone have any good sore throat remedies while I'm waiting??
