Can you guess who Tay's report was on?

Well?

Einstein right, I know I'm her mom but this is one mighty good puppet. When I looked at him I felt like Einstein was gazing through my soul (true story.) She worked very hard to make hers "the best", she really put a lot of thought and effort into it.

5 lil domesticated animals

Myles had an "off" pic day, this was the best i could do.

We had a great afternoon full of fun and giggles.

We were lucky enough to have a lil friend with us. We sure love having her around!

Myles loved the animals and called them "dogga" (for doggy).

Soon he will be grown and these wonderful "baby moments" will all too soon be distant memories. How I love being a mother to 3 amazing children of God.

I am so blessed to have them in my life.

this is how he does it...

We should have named him: Danger, Hazard, Menace, Threat, Venture or Storm. But we named him Myles? Well I guess it's close enough. He loves a thrill hence the "blind biking", he gets it from his dad.

Uhm I'm so going into retirement as a mother

So today started out like any other domestic diva day. I did 2 loads of laundry, put em away. Did the dishes, put em away. Then ventured down to put away the 100+ boxes of Quaker products (that I basically stole, you'll see how this fits in in a second.), dated and organized them into food storage aka put em away. Then decided I would take the kids to the Zoo. Even brought a friend.  Pretty good mom day I thought.........

Well we all arrived home I prepared dinner. Luckily Bryson was outside and noticed Skyler acting sneaky. He assumed she had candy or something like hidden in her pocket. Turns out SHE STOLE A KIDS CELL PHONE RIGHT OUT OF HIS BACK PACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GASP, SHOCK, WHAT THE CRAP?????????

K we've known she has sticky fingers, but seriously! When Bryson asked her about it, she started hitting herself in her head. Multiple times. CRAZY A clear sign of guilt. Then Bryson called the "owner" and explained we had their phone. She had taken it out of  a kids backpack at school, and of course lied about it multiple times. We decided she would return it and issue an appologie herself. Here is where the thought of retirement entered my head. We drove to their apartment and had her in front to talk and apologize. They happily greeted us in and Skyler quickly handed over the phone and the treats (bryson suggested a butter finger for her sticky fingers) she had bought for him. Then she said nothing......... standing.........nothing...... I whisper in her ear "SAY SORRY" ..... "sorry"...... me "sorry for what?"........."sorry for taking your phone." I wanted a lot more, but whatever.

Hopefully tomorrow brings a little kindness to my heart, cause I need it. And hopefully I never have to blog about this particular theif ever again.

Sky's big award

Skyler received her Conquering cub award!

We are so proud of her. She has worked so hard this year and become very responsible with her school work. To receive this award she accomplished much including getting 100% on all but 2 spelling tests all year long! She has been studying very hard. She also read 20 minutes a night all year long. That just names a few.

I'm so proud of you Sky. You are such a huge joy in my life.

Spring Break (vacation at home)/ reflections on Easter

3 LIL CHEFS!

As we are at home we've been having some easter fun! Today we did a lil hunt with friends and dyed eggs. Myles even "got" it and collected eggs like crazy.

The girls have been very fun and grateful, I love being their mom!

I love the thought of Easter, a new birth.

The ultimate sacrifice by our Saviour.

The Attonement and Ressurection.

This is the Lord’s day, when we celebrate the greatest victory of all time, the victory over death.

Through him the ability to be together as a family forever.

How forever indebted I am to him

I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,

Confused at the grace that so fully he proffers me.

I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,

That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.

Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me

Enough to die for me!

Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!

(“I Stand All Amazed,” Hymns, no. 193)

It is most definitely my favorite holiday.

The biggest looser

Bryson and I have been doing the biggest looser at his work. Yesterday was the official end. Happy to report...

I lost 12 pounds,  8.7 % overall
Bryson lost 7 pounds, 4.3 % overall

We have been working hard and eating WELL. Every pound counts right. When I get BRAVE enough I'll post before and after pics. I'm just hoping to loose a few more lbs before I take the final pic in a bikini (let me tell you the before is BAD.)

All grown up (both of my babys)

I'm so excited to announce Krazy Cake Lady is growing up and is now part of THE FOOD BLOG ROLL an amazing site that helps link up foodies with blog. Go check it out and if you are like me you'll spend way to much time looking, searching and cooking fun food!

Just a lil tease!

We walked to church (not by choice)

Yesterday we walked to church, because for no reason at all betsy wouldn't start and of course Bryson was out of town. Ther girls called it worse case seneriao and were surprised we were late. Myles was sweet and loved the cold stroll. I'm soooooooooooo sick of my car (BETSY is her name), also I very much dislike buying things (ie: anything expensive especially cars).

Anywho I hope I get an extra tally in heaven for not throwing in the towel and sitting on the couch? We'll see someday?

UGGGHHHH (warning this may be a little GRAPHIC)

Today I'm in an unusually BAD mood. Let's blame it on the migraine that feels like my head is going to explode and needles are going through my neck upward. Also the twitching oof the eye and blurred vision as a so enjoyed side effect. Next I tried darn hard today inspite of everything, and most things failed. Except for one. Then I paid for food that was GROSS. Also my man is gone This could be the root of the problem? So I'm grumpy, luckily the suns gonna come up tomorrow!

Happy birthday Bryson. You are such an amazing father and friend! I am so blessed to have you as my best friend. Thank you for all the hard work you do for us, YOU REALLY ARE THE BEST. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Looks like this birthday is just an excuse to go and win MASTER'S  NATIONALS.

YA we kinda like Daddy!

Baby talk

MYLES

He worships his dad. It's so sweet. It makes me so jealous happy!

He talks a lot.

He no longer says mom (whatever.)

He does how ever say:

DA DA

TAY TAY

KY KY (sky)

thank you

katie (a girl at the gym, Ya I KNOW!)

ba ba (bottle)

bum bum (for a diaper change don't get any weird ideas)

grandma

bonka (my mom)

grandpa

night night

So he's smart right? So smart that he won't say my name (TEAR, TEAR, Tear, tear)

He does however nod his head yes and no, my all time favorite.

When we ask him if he wants to go to bed he excitidely shakes his head yes!

SCHOOL?

Yesterday Myles REALLY wanted to go to school. He was hoping the backpack would help. Poor guy he's got 4 more years.

My B-day a lil LATE

My B-day was wonderful and simple. Oh how I deeply love simple. And of course good food, I love good food that I had no part in preparing. We also snuck in on my grandparents and had a quick delightful visit wiht them. Happy 29, lets hope the big 30 brings me a HOT bod with a six pack (bring it on.)

I would not have wanted to spend it with anyone else!
