Tooo Nice

I have always been told there was such a thing as too nice and have seen it a few times in my life. I think it makes your heart smile when it comes from your kiddo...My oldest is right at the terrible 3's and in full force so one would wonder where NICE shows up HUH? We have lived in our neighborhood since he was born and he has all but taken up with our neighbor they were litarally not seperated until just this past year. They played outside together and went to the same daycare everyday. He still climbs to his slide to talk to her over the fence..soo freakin cute! She is a little girl who is older than him and plays with him when it is just she and him but of course when the big kids come around she carries on.. normal kid thing to do no time for the wittle kids. It doesn't even seem to phase my little guy... he still loves her all the same. So this weekend we had to go get new tennis shoes. I learned alot on this trip from the fact Sketchers are NOT tennis shoes they are Sketchers..marketing job well done my friends. Well back to the story.. our neighbor got new Sketchers with Princess on them...cause she LOVES princess he says and he picked them himself. Then we had to go to the toy store and guess what she got a new shovel too. Not really but he picked it up first and ask if he could buy this for OO-Weee-B-IA..I thought wow how sweet he thinks of his little girlfriend first and still neither get a thing from the store. Really you are going to buy with your own money, too. WooooWwzers!! I think this is awesome that he thinks so much of other people. He is always packing treats for his best bud at daycare, bringing me flowers. I think it is great but I can see now I am going to have to watch this little prince he looks like the kind that could get ran all over by little girls.

Such a little Gentleman

awww how my child is going to replace Romeo... chivalry is not dead as long as my kiddos are around. LOL. My oldest loves to pick me flowers and bring them to me and say "WUB you mommy" I thought this was just a way to go water plants with his dad at first but he even picks the plants at Lowe's I haven't had to buy a plant yet cause he is picking all the blooms off.... and even if I do it is ok. Here was my latest flower... and my oldest had to make sure they still had their smell... ahhh god love him!~

Ahh the Bluebonnets

Every year around this time the bluebonnets bloom in Texas and they are gorgeous. To those that aren't from here you would think it is the craziest thing you have ever seen... not the flowers! The damn Texans running and stopping all over the road to jump out and get pictures like they have never seen them before. People have been known to get killed cause they didn't pull off the road far enough. Over the weekend we noticed several people parking and jumping out in some really dangerous places. Either way we also snapped a few pictures but for sure not off the side of a road... just not worth it to me. You can't even tell it is raining huh?

Wordless Wednesday~

Eber been Snipe hunting??

Do they have a lot of colors? do they like chocolate? Do you name him Kevin?
My oldest I am sure got this question from this new Disney movie UP.. and how observant. He has no clue what he just got himself into that is for sure. So this morning we are getting ready for school and Cooper runs across our living area into the kitchen all excited and jumping up and down.. "Mommy, Mommy you eber been snipe hunting" hummm. I had to take a VERY short breath before I answered this question..but almost instantly said "Why yes..yes I have and maybe your Uncle Robby can take you snipe hunting, too"
So now let me go further to explain why this is so near and dear to my heart..and why I chuckled inside. When I was say probably around 8 or so living in a small small town in TN. My grandparents lived on a huge farm and had tons of woods. My great Uncle Glenn, which by the way was a funny dude and his laugh was infectious, decided to take me and my cousin Marsha out snip hunting. Oh yeah, it was one to remember too I promise. I will never ever forget this event. We were carrying tator sacks into the woods and asking what does a snipe look like? Well here is the animal we were looking for... he kinda looks like a coon and he is super fast. Now you have to stay down low and hold this sack and be careful he will bite you but they are super fast and if you aren't paying attention he will zoom right past that tator sack. Don't sit down to wait on him..this was the question my cousin ask can I sit on this stump and wait? So my cousin and I were separated to different trees and my uncle Glenn was going to scare the snipe out... boy did he ever.. OH MY my cousin kept asking questions as my uncle Glenn walked off and I was all down in a crouch mode getting ready. When he snuck up on us and scared the living daylights out of us.. I know they heard his laugh all the way back up to the house..and he laughed all the way home. I think it is funny now and so thankful for the memory but at the time it was not funny at ALL. My cousin literally peed her pants and heck I might have too.. I know I was close.
I just can't imagine ever robbing my kiddos of such an opportunity.. Cooper & Luke might be planning the hunting trip of their life with Uncle Robby. heheheeee

Halitosis is on the rise

Oh my can I just tell you.. I am in and around people all day and talk A LOT. Some days not by choice but it is my job. Most of the time, I enjoy hearing other people tell life stories, or funny jokes, or even complain a little. Here is my thing I was a dental assistant at one time and loved it. I learned that there are all kinds of things that can make one's mouth smell like hell. I am a big mouth person.. I look at peoples teeth all the time. I guess out of old habits and being aware of different mouth issues. Over the past few weeks I have noticed more and more people just have awful smellin mouths...I mean the kind you can smell a mile away. I no longer have the little mask to wear around my face so I can avoid gagging from the smell. I may need to reinvest in a few. hummm. Either way this one girl got on the elevator and never even opened her mouth and you could smell it.. now come on I know these people are brushin their teeth before they come to work. I also keep a plethora of gum at my desk for those times I know my mouth a be stinkin. Then don't you hate it when someone is talking to you and they get closer and closer and you never heard a word they said cause you were holding back the gag reflexes the entire conversation. I am not sure if just more and more people are having drainage, or they just plain don't brush their teeth, or visit their local dentist on a regualr basis. Either way I have noticed it more and more over the past month.. and knowing me before too long I am going to have a pile of toothbrushes on hand to just hand out.

"brush your junk..and come back"

It has been brought to my attention....

I can make it thru Girl Scout cookie sales without one single cookie, I never even eat a candy bar, a few M&M's every now and then, sometimes the all famous chocolate thunder from down under makes the list. It has been brought to my attention that I have this crazy weakness for these damn marshmallows covered in sugar sparkles. Every year when spring rolls around I get all giddy because Peeps are sure to follow. Ahhh how I love thy Peeps. I think this weakness has gotten worse as now I find myself buying them for easter baskets and poof they are gone... I know they can't be good for my extra baby weight loaded figure BUT not sure how to kick this crazy voice in my head saying " go ahead eat them and stop by the local walmart later and replace what you took from your kids easter basket you bad momma" even with that voice not being nice I carry on..UGH. Hurry Easter hurry fast....and pass so these things go away.
