Turn-It-Up Tuesday

Totally made up this weekly Tuesday theme. This is for those songs I just can't get out of my head.

This week:

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, by Hendrix

Tom Cruise Has Nothing On Me!

Mission Im-paci-ble

Last night David put Hendrix to bed. As H1 was thisclose to being asleep, he suddenly realized he didn't have his paci. No big deal David thought, he'd go get it. (and by "it" I mean one of three we have floating around)

So he started searching all the normal places. Dresser?Nope. Backpack?Nope. Kitchen island?Nope. After we searched everywhere from under the couch cushions to in the truck, we gave up and David got him to sleep without the pacifier. H1 came to our bed around midnight and proceeded to wake up nearly every hour asking for his pacifier.

Not only did we all get a crappy night sleep, but I'm screwed if I can't find a pacifier before naptime.

Mission Im-paci-ble? Challenge accepted. (as if I have a choice)

Messy Monday

It’s Messy Monday. The one day a week that I show you an embarrassing, long neglected mess in my house, in the hopes that it will make you feel better about yours. And because it keeps me accountable to tackle and least one mess a week that’s not just daily grind. Brace yourself.

This is the holiday kitchen stuff / mail to be shredded cabinet and it is out of control!

My reward for cleaning it out today!

Ahhh, that's better!



Now, remember the rules of Messy Monday.


A) Don’t judge me.

and

B) Share your own long neglected embarrassment now :)

That's How We Roll

Most moms will read books to their older kid(s) while nursing the baby. Us? We play baseball.



That's how we roll.

(Mostly) Free Fun!

A few weeks before Hadley was born, David and I took Hendrix downtown for a "trolley" ride. This trolley is simply a city bus that they painted green to look like a trolley, and made it free.

Friday evening Hendrix told me he wanted to go ride the trolley. Saturday morning- off we went. Before we jumped on the trolley we had to grab some breakfast, being downtown, Jake's was the place to go. This place is really impressive for breakfast being that it's a burger joint. The breakfast tacos's with homemade salsa are amazing!

After Hendrix scarfed down his (entire!) pancake he promptly told us it was trolley time.

When it's 90 degrees at 10am, a trip to the Water Gardens is a must..so we did!

I'm so impressed with Hendrix today. He obeyed everything I asked of him and was in a fantastic mood the entire time. Made this Mama proud!

Messy Monday

I recently found this blogger who does this series called Messy Mondays. I thought I'd try it out, my house needs all the help it can get.

It’s Messy Monday.  The one day a week that I show you an embarrassing, long neglected mess in my house, in the hopes that it will make you feel better about yours. And because it keeps me accountable to tackle and least one mess a week that’s not just daily grind. Brace yourself. 

I would really like to create a spot in the house where I can scrapbook while the kids are playing nicely by themselves, within eyesight (HA! I can dream right?)This is my first step towards that goal. Check out the computer desk upstairs.

Wow. The dogs' crate has been in this room for 3 years and the layer of disgustingness (yes I made that up) is embarrassing. Tackling this with a newborn and 2.5 yo was no easy feat. It took forever with stealing time here and there during catnaps and videos. I cleaned, wiped down, put away, wiped down, and still see dog hair. I tried, Honestly. The result of my efforts?

Now, remember the rules of Messy Monday.

New baby.New blog.

New baby, new shot at blogging, new blog.... I'm giving this a shot again as there are a few friends whose blogs I follow as the sole way to keep up with them...and them with me. This blog is still *very* much under construction, so be patient.
