ROOOOOLL TIIIIIIDE!!! We stayed home last night since the BCS peeps are oblivious to work/school schedules when setting dates for the ultimate National Championship game of the century (ok... that was a bit much but I do live with JD- THE biggest Bama fan I know) We were going to watch with friends and family but decided that (on the terrible chance that we lost) it would be too hard and too late to drive home from anywhere- so we had our own game night. I made home made chicken noodle soup and baked some cookies (and made my very-picky-don't-like-anything kids a frozen pizza) and we ate til we were stuffed and vegged out on the couch. I made the kids get in the shower right as the game started and we did all homework during half time. (I also vacuumed up chips out of the floor where Kaden decided he needed to make a trail through the living room... I guess 1700 square feet is a big place where a 2 year old could get lost and need to find his way back to the kitchen !) Kyle ran around the living room- high five-ing us on every tackle- every catch- every time they ran out of
balance (aka bounds... he would have it no other way... I could not convince him any differently) Kaylee... well.... she watched tv in her room and popped out every now and again for a glance at the score. She was more worried about which Bama shirt she was going to wear today than she was about watching them win :) But nevertheless- we won! Again! And it was awesome!
I am home with a sick baby today. It is the same typical sick we always seem to get around here- he went to bed completely fine and woke me up at 3am burning up with fever. He has had a few crackers and some sprite today and has not left the couch longer than 5 minutes :( Please pray it is just a quick-viral-run-its-course -in-a-day thing. I hate not knowing what the underlying cause is- but taking him to the doctor is out unless it is untreatable with over the counter meds. He is a doctor-phobe. He has a fit when we walk in any type of office type atmosphere. Sometimes he even starts spazzing when store clerks ask me if I need help. Bless him... he's wittle!
We still have a house for sale if any of you knows anybody interested in our area! I sure would appreciate any help/prayers for this to sale. Just thought I would remind y'all..... again...... pretty please ;)
I didn't do a big "look what we got/did/ate for Christmas" because someone (uh-hmmm TD) told me my blogs were all pictures lately and no real blogging.... but I will tell you that my husband did a great job this year (no shampoo or used blenders lol) He (his mom) had me a charm made for my Pandora bracelet - it is 3 sided- one side says Forever Together and the other two sides have our names engraved on them (Awwww... I know... I was surprised!) He also got me a cell phone cover that didn't remotely fit my phone :) Perfectly fitting gift from JD.... so close- yet so far away! I had bought myself a few things too and wrapped them so we would have an even number of gifts... you know.... making sure the kids saw how fair we are ! He said "Well- you had a much better Christmas than I thought you would" No worries JD, you paid for it :) And after it was all said and done and I DIDN'T get the one thing I requested... I used my bonus Christmas money I get from my houses I clean and bought my self a shiny, new, white......
VACUUM CLEANER! (I tried uploading a pic from my phone but it is being stupid)
I know- how lame am I that I am thrilled to have gotten this- but you have to understand something. Since I have had my new carpet (In MAY if you will recall) I have not had a working beater-bar on my vacuum cleaner so I have been killing myself using a floor tool on my taped up half working old vacuum. I am in love! I have the prettiest vacuum lines in my carpet now. It is just awesome!
And now you know why I have limited my posting lately.... I go from Roll Tide to loving vacuum cleaners! My mind is a whirlwind lately. I am thinking it is a product of too much going on and not enough vacant space in my brain to obtain it.... all the crazy is starting to leak out- feel warned.... and slightly scared.... this could be ugly :)
Happy ugly Tuesday! All else fails- be proud your not an LSU fan .... and if you just so happen to be..... well.... I am not so sure what to say about all that!!
