House burning??

I weighed tiny today just for fun at home. He just seemed to be so heavy. He came in at 17 pounds. Now we will go to the doctor in about two weeks for the really weigh in, but I just had to know. I think Kit Kat was 17 pounds around a year, and I can't remember about Sinclaire. Once we unpack and I can find the box I will compare them.

We are going to my sisters today and staying for the weekend. Tomorrow is the day. We are FINALLY burning my mom's house tomorrow. I know, I know it has been two, no three years in the making almost but it is finally here. I can't even imagine what it will be like. I will get some great pictures and hopefully get some on here so you all can see the massive fire engulfed house.
What fun it will be.

Well, we went to the children's museum this week and had a great time. The new Egypt section is very cool. The girls had a great time and of course we had to get popcorn and cotton candy on the way out.

Our meals this week have taken one quite the twist.

Monday-leftovers
Tuesday-Taquitos
Wednesday-Pigs in a blanket.

What is next- Ice cream and cookies???

One great baby

Well, the hunt is still on. Sam and I have looked at a few more homes and decided they weren't for us. For some reason he always likes one, and I always like the other. But, the house we had put an offer on and waited 7 weeks on will be an option again. The selling agent is still working with the bank and will let us know what he finds out. The good thing about this is we can still look and if we find one we can buy that one, but if we don't we can just wait until this one comes through. At least it makes me more certain that some thing will happen soon.

I try not to talk about how great Tiny is, but I just have to say that he is a great baby. He has slept through the night for over a month and he takes great naps. He hardly ever cries and he will lay in his bed for along time after he wakes up with out crying. What a difference from the girls. I am so blessed by this little bitty guy. I just love him.

(Don't get me wrong I love my girls too, but they just weren't this good as a baby.)

The woes of house hunting

So I have been holding off on posting because I am SO bummed. Last week the bank said bye bye to our deal on the house. They said that it just wasn't good enough. So how does this happen? We were in like the seventh week of waiting. Who knows, I guess it sort of fits with our story on house hunting. We move on and hope for the best. Maybe we can even stay with Sam's parents forever. I think that would be the best for everyone.

Moving on to a better topic. Sam told Sinclaire that she was so smart. I am not sure what we were talking about, but she responded with, "I am a good looker." She then proceeded on with telling us how well she can find stuff, but we thought it was pretty funny. I think she is a "good looker", but I prefer to call her cute.

Today

I am headed up to my mom's today to get peaches. I got a bushel to do what ever I want with. I think I will just like to eat mine seeing as how I have no place to live at the moment. Hopefully in two weeks we will be able to wrap up everything and finalize the house. Tiny is getting so big, when I get my computer back I will get some pictures on.

I have started training for the mini next May. I have ran just a few times and I can tell that i have be stagnant for way too long. My body aches pretty much all over, so hopefully that will go away soon.

Pet peeves or Blessings

Yesterday I was pushing the girls on the swing and I decided to think of 5 pet peeves. This is what I came up with:

Traffic
Walking in wet grass with sandals or bear foot
Trash laying on the counter right by the trash can
Whining

So I had yet to think of that fifth one when I thought to myself, "Why am I thinking of thinks that annoy me, I should be thinking of things that make me happy." So I decided to come up with a different list.

My kiddos laughing
A breezy summer day
Sam pushing the girls on the swing, they love it
A good workout
A really yummy meal
Ice cream
A nap
A hug and smooches from my girls
A laugh from Tiny
His little toes
An extra $20 in my pocket
Fabric stores
Finishing a project
Alone time
Music, I love Broadway stuff
Friends and family

I could go on and on, but you get the idea. Next time I will try to think of things that make me happy instead of dwelling on the stuff that annoys me. What about you, what makes you happy?
