Who needs just ONE binky...

...when you can have THREE!!!!! I think this means its time to start thinking

about getting rid of the Binkster!!!!

Happy Birthday James!!!

Today is James' 32nd Bday!!! We went to

dinner with the kids to celebrate!!!

It has been a great year for James so far, he has

done wonderful things with his job and I am so

proud of him!!! He has been working so hard and

going to school and being so committed to being the

best husband and daddy!!! We love you so much!!!

Atleast It Wasn't Decorated Yet....

This kid is trying to see how high he can get my blood pressure!!!

Once again I thought it was out of reach and he still got to it!!

I think I am going to put all the kitchen chairs out in the garage

and we can eat standing up!!! Everyone has told me BOYS are so

different...I am now learning that very quickly, he can

climb up anything!!!! (this really helps my case that

James needs to build me a kitchen downstairs instead

of a theatre room)

Yummy Yummy!!

So this morning I was vacuuming and when I turned

off the vacuum I heard Gage in the other room saying

"yummy yummy" This is what I came into find!!!

These were up on the counter I thought out of

reach!!! Apparently not!!!

Watch Out NBA Here Comes Gage!!!!

So the past couple of weeks Gage has really taken an intrest in

Basketball!!! Now I know what you are all thinking...of course he

would both his parents love to play, but we really haven't had to

do much!!! Everytime he see's it on TV he freezes and yell "BatBall"

(he can't quite say it yet) or if he see's a ball he has to have it!!!! The best is

when we were in sacrament on sunday and he could see the hoops back

in the gym, the whole meeting he was yelling "BatBall" James

decided it was time to get him a hoop for his room, so this is what we

got him and he literally spends a few hours a day in there shooting

his basketball!!! With practicing this much at only 18 months, he has got

to atleast make it to play in college right??!!!:) I am sure James will make sure he

sticks with it:)

"Mommy...My shirt is broken!!!!"

So I put this shirt on Ellie yesterday and immediatly

she started pulling down the sleeves!!!

She quickly realized that they weren't long

enough to reach her hand and was in tears!!!

She was so upset and said, "mommy my shirt is

broken" I felt so bad for her!!! She wanted it

off immediately!!! She couldn't stop

crying long enough (nor could I stop laughing) for

me to explain to

her that the sleeves were supposed to be

that way!!! Finally James of all people was

able to eplain to her, that that is how the

shirt is suppossed to be!!! We got a

good laugh out of it, but I highly doubt

she will ever wear that shirt again!!!

I LOVE YOU ELLIE:)

A Small Makeover!!!

So ever since we moved into our house, I have wanted

to do something about our

kitchen!!! I really didn't like the cupboards at all,

so since it would have

been to espensive to remodel the whole thing,

we decided to paint!!!!

James added bead board to the fronts of all the

cupboards and around the

island and we painted it all!!! I was so excited to get

started that Iforgot to take a before picture!!!

So here are the afters:) It gives our house a whole new look!!!
I love it!!!!
