do you even LOOK at me??

I often will get home after being out with Donovan and find some odd thing on my face or in my hair.  More times than I can count I will get home and find food in my teeth. 

So while cleaning my makeup brushes tonight I decided to do an experiment.  I drew a big mole on my face and waited to see how long it would take Donovan to notice.   I planned on increasing the size every 30 minutes or so and see how long it took for him to notice.  I was going to take a picture each time I increased the size. 

This is the only picture I got to take!  

As soon as I walked into the room Isabella says "eeeeew, you have a huge zit!" and I tried to hush her but then Zach chimed in "I want to see the zit!  Where's the zit?  Can I see your zit?" and by then Donovan heard about it.

So I guess I need to rely on Isabella to tell me about random things on my face from now on. 

Hell

After visiting Disneyland I now know what hell is like. 

Everyone stands too close to me.
Everyone has bad breath.
Everyone stops in the middle of WALKways.

That's what I feel a small part of hell is like.

mincing words

Do you mince your words?

I do.  ALLLLL the time. 

Today's was good, and it was only in my head.  "hmmm, if it's cold enough today I can use the seated heats."  Yep, that's how my brain works.  BACKWARDS!

My never ending wish list

Do you have a HUGE to do list?    I do!

I would like to:
replace all of the baseboards
remodel master bath
remodel the kids bathroom
replace downstairs bath tile
finish the back yard
paint living room walls, we are normally DIYers but the cathedral ceilings scare me to pieces!
paint all of the interior doors
concrete on the front porch
tile front porch
remove planter in front yard
put in mow curb in front yard
remove dead tree in front yard

We are hopefully going to get some concrete soon, so I can check one thing off my list.  Sigh...so much more to do. 

Well hello there!

It's been a long time.  As my friend Nicole loves to tell me!  We had a great weekend, yesterday we went to IKEA.  I love that place!  The only bummer was that Isabella is too tall for the kids play area.  : ( 

We have been doing homework at the kitchen table since Isabella started kindergarten and with all the papers they are given our kitchen table was often a complete mess!  So we decided to take a small area in the playroom and make it into a homework area.  

 Here is the area before.  I left it open because the kids used to sit in front of the bins and play.  Don't look at my messy closet.  That's in the schedule for this week!

 Here is my hardworking hubs putting things together.  He HATES this part!

 Hutch is helping.

 Almost done!  Putting together the bar stools.

 That bin has been sitting on my kitchen counter for 4 years.  I am so excited to have my kitchen counter back!  Now I just have to clean it out.  uggg

The kids are so happy!  They are playing school, they have played games and put together a puzzle.
