So I know...

I know it's Halloween... which I will post about probably in a day or two, but here are the two exciting things that I was going to post this last week.  (1) Jer is no longer a consultant... he's salaried... again!  YAY!  That means that he has a job and doesn't have to look again in January. (2) Our baby is due June 5th.  A little ironic since that was the day that Sammy was supposed to be born.  Here's my quandry... Ada was born 10/10... Sammy was born 6/6... this baby's due 6/5... I could try to hold out for 6/6 again... or I can go for May... Isn't it funny that we can plan birthdays to a certain point?

I forgot to mention

I forgot in my post about the snow yesterday... Ada kept saying over and over again... "It's Christmas time! It's Christmas time!"  Well, considering we've already started listening to Christmas music in our house... it might as well be.

I know...

I know... everyone and their dog has been post pictures of the first snow and telling stories about it over facebook and twitter... but I kind of like pictures of MY kids for some strange odd reason... Ada had a blast in the snow!  I think I'm going to get her snow pants this year... last year she didn't do more than walk through it... this time she did tricks into it... ate it... and rolled to her hearts content.  Sammy finally got bold enough to walk in it after falling on the sidewalk onto his face two or three times... poor kid... 

Poor beat up kid...

Where did fall go?

So before the fall really starts, it's over... that's okay... I am sad that we didn't really go see leaves this year... but there weren't really all that many to see anyways... here are some pictures of what we've been doing.  We don't have any of the pumkin carving though... I forgot a camera... hmmm.

Playing at the park

Eating suckers on the balcony... and feeding the dog the leaves off the tree.

Going to the "HeeHaw" place

Just being cute

Pony rides (neither of them wanted to get off and you should see... Ada was the size of the pony she was riding... poor little thing.  But it was cute.)

The always awesome corn box

Favorite things

So one of my favorite things in the world is to watch Jer play with the kids.  Last night we watched the twins for a minute while Sohie went to the pharmacy... Jer had both hands going in over time... throwing pillows at charging three year olds, throwing the one year old on the couch, and being a four person horse... (together those kids weigh a ton... 34, 32, 35, and 24 lbs each... and he was crawling around with all of them on his back... and they were all loving it.

Healthy post

Yeah... I've always been a pretty healthy person... I get the flu once every couple of years, about two colds a year and that's about it... til I had kids.  Now I've had the flu twice this year, and a pretty constant cold or sinus infection... oh well... currently (WARNING... these are my current health problems so sorry if it grosses you out.) between being pregnant, having diaharrea because I'm pregnant, and having hemrroids because of the diaherrea, and plantar faciatis, and a really itchy rash all around my foot that's caused by the tape/wraps that I've been using to get rid of the plantar faciatis, and the fact that I didn't sleep really well last night because my foot was itching so bad.  Let's just say I feel daper.

So I admit...

I am a geek... I like geeky things and some of them are pretty funny actually... One of them is this internet series called "The Guild".  Each episode is about 10 mins long and it makes fun of gamers with no lives...
This is a music video that they did... http://paralleluniverse.msn.com/the-guild/?g=8cb424dc-cbdb-40be-90c5-8fb450462d2f

hmmm....

"Ada... stop trying to squish your brother."

"But I'm just sitting on him."

Madsen bike

So I really like this bike... pretty cool huh?!  Well, here's the thing.  Madsen is giving away one of their newest models and you get entered into their drawing if you have a link to them on your blog and they get traffic from it... so Please!  Click here

Actually had fun

I ususally don't have fun cleaning the house... usually it's just what it says... "a chore".  But today was actually fun.  Ada was bored and Sammy was sleeping... so Ada decided that she was going to help me.  We cleaned two bathrooms, our laundry room, the dishes, put away toys and made a cake... and she was so cute!  We even made up a song about her helping me work around the house because she kept humming the same tune over and over again.  Usually cleaning with kids is harder... this time I was able to see what it is to have a happy and industrious family.  I loved it!

Talk in church

Those three words can scare me more than anything else... I'd much rather prefer giving an hour long lesson, tracting, Family Night Lesson, etc... but a measly 10 min talk in church and my tongue falls out and my knees decide that they aren't made up of all the natural things that knees are made of.  I'm supposed to be giving a talk on prayer and boy will I need to use it to give the talk.
