Want A Rib-Splitting Laugh?...Check Out This Link

In the wee hours of the morning on Friday night, I couldn't sleep, so I was watching tv in our bedroom. I was catching up on some Oprah's that I had on TiVo. Justin Timberlake was one of Oprah's guests and did you know he's pretty darn funny? They played a clip of Timberlake on Saturday Night Live dancing in a mock Beyonce video...in none other than a leotard and high heel shoes. I was laughing so hard that I woke Brandon up.

Introducing...Micah Brooke

We took a road trip to Milwaukee today to meet...

My new niece: Micah Brooke born March 24th

I'm so glad I got to meet her and love on her. She's so stinkin' cute. I could just nibble on her cheeks all day long. She is probably the most laid back baby I've ever seen.

Jordyn was soooo good with her. This gives me hope, that in a month or so, she'll be a big help around here with our new little guy.

Of course, we couldn't leave without a picture of the cousins.

This picture cracks me up!

A Visit With Friends

My co-worker, Amy, and I have talked for quite some time about getting our 2 year olds together to play. After several months...we finally did it!! Dylan is 3 months older than Camden so it was fun to see them play together.

The boys were less than impressed with us that we put them in a chair and told them to smile. Since our photo session was going nowhere, I asked the boys to show me their belly buttons. Here ya have it!

Like I said, they were less than impressed with us.

Amy has a special place in her heart for Kye. Kye begged Amy to give him a nickname, since many of his classmates were given nicknames by his teacher. After much consideration, Amy came up with "Sugar Lump" ("Shula" for short). So there you have it, everyone calls Kye "Shula" at school. Kye, you get what you ask for!

What did I say, Amy and Kye have a loving relationship!

Even though we've worked together for only 8 months, we've become very close.

Dinner Conversation w/ a 2 Year Old

Me: Camden, who's in Mommy's tummy?

Camden: Baby

Me: What's baby's name?

Camden: Ummm...Oswald (laughing)

Me: No, what's the baby's name?

Camden: Ummmmm....Max & Ruby (laughing)

Me: No silly. What's baby's name?

Camden: Don't want baby

Jordyn's New Do

Over the past few months, Jordyn has taken to hiding behind her hair. Half of the time, you couldn't even see her eyes. This past week, I made Jordyn get a haircut. She spent a little bit of time researching hair styles with my hip co-worker, Amy. What a difference a good trim, a little layering, & a little swoop of the bangs will do to a girl!

Spring Break Randomness

Spring break is into full swing. Can't say we've been up to much, but we have accomplished tons, if that makes sense.

Here's a bit of randomness of our spring break (so far):

*Brandon cleaned up outside...landscape, tore a metal shed down.

*Kye and Camden got sick...Kye more so. Camden got better but Kye didn't. Took Kye to the dr. yesterday and he had strep throat. A day of antibiotics and the dr. said he'll be good to go.

*Jordyn got a flashy new haircut. Pictures to come soon. (If you are reading this Grandpa Joe, could you send me the one we talked about?)

*I went to the dentist yesterday to get my 6 mo. cleaning. All was good with my teeth. A few little zings on my exposed root, though, almost sent me through the roof. Sharp, metal tool + exposed root = Ouch! I left there soaking wet (literally) from sweating so badly. If you are interested in reading more about why I despise the dentist, click HERE.

*We have been mad fools here getting the house ready for baby. It's either now or it will never get done.

*Lord help us, tonight we will be trying Camden out in his big boy bed...the bottom bunk! Now if we can potty train him too, life would be good.

*I discovered a new blog, courtesy of the Pioneer Woman. It's called "This is Reverb." Check it out.
