In Lots of Fives

5 Things I did this morning:
1. Called Mom and Julie to see if any of the babies arrived.
2. Searched Zabasearch to locate old friends from college.
3. Felt bad for being rude to Mark this morning.
4. Cut out a darling jacket pattern to sew for Valerie.
5. Discussed Vertebrobasilar Arteries with my mom.

5 Things I did this afternoon:
1. Read pattern instructions, seam ripped, and almost completed Val's jacket.
2. Saw the bottom of the laundry hamper...that is, till Ethan gets home to fill it up again.
3. Apologized to Mark for being rude.
4. Listened to old Petra, Whiteheart, and Crumbacher tapes.
5. Enjoyed 3 Diet Cokes...argh.

5 Things I did this evening:
1. Cooked dinner and made the kids' lunch for tomarrow. Homemade mini pizza's!
2. Enjoyed seeing Valerie all curled up next to her DVD player, listening to Christian music.
3. Freaked out when we found Ethan with the cord from his curtains around his neck. He has petechiae all around his neck...still freaking out!
4. Called Mom to see if I should send him to school. Don't want them to think I did it!
5. Talked to mom again and learned that Lexie's water broke...so baby Jaks will be here soon.

Ang, you're forgiven...for the rudeness, not for admitting to the Petra nostalgia!

btw...Ang is exaggurating Ethan's ordeal, but the kid needs to get on some meds before we all freak out.

What a day!

THOSE doctors or nurses who won't talk english to their patients. who is lexie and jeremy, BTW? i mean what is the new baby to you? how exciting if you are a new aunt (i'm guessing)!

Jeremy is my brother! I hope that he can provide well for this little one! He tends to be a tad irresponsible sometimes. Found out he was not there for the birth....soooooo sad!

Days like these make me wish I were in Seattle. I am planning to go see Jaks in October! Julie, my sister in law is next on the labor train. She was due Aug. 30th so any day now. I was present at the last birth (which was my first v-birth to see).

Calling All Women

The Challenge: Have as many women as I can interpret what I meant by "Spending ever day looking for new ways to reinvent our relationship." Please leave your comments so that I know I wasn't speaking a foreign language with my spouse. Men, feel free to comment as well! I'm sure you will anyways. Conversation with hubby: Me: I have a New Years Resolution that I think would be fun for us, do you want to hear it? Man: Sure Me: I think every day we should look for new ways to reinvent our relationship? Man: What do you mean? Me: I just said what I meant. Man: No you didn't really explain what you mean, though. Me: You know, finding little things that would change our relationship...doing something each day. Man: That seems taxing! Me: Working on our relationship is work? Man: Yeah, I wouldn't know what to do. That's 365 days, you know. Me: There are calendars out there that will tell you things to do that are romantic! Buy one. Man: Yeah, but most of them are ...

Monday, when we got back from our anniversary trip, found a note on the counter that read: Suzanne called. Play group. Tuesday at 830am. Who would schedule a playgroup so early? Doesn't anyone sleep in? Let the kids find their own breakfast, and stay under the covers till they beg for lunch? Well, you know heat here in the summers, ranging around the 100's, makes us southerners wake up early in the a.m. to do the things we enjoy. When noon rolls around, we hull up in our homes, doors tightly shut, curtains drawn, trying to escape the BIG BAD (the sun appropriately named, right Spike?)! I guess that was not in the cards for us today! We spent the early morning hours playing at the park with pretty much everyone from Journey! Unfortunately around 10 a.m. the heat found us and forced us to retreat to Suzanne's house for some relief! We had a great time chatting, the conversation ranged from ovulation...and ended with ovulation. I think Micheal enjoyed the conversation as much ...

My latest obsessions….puzzling The week after Coyote made a surprise visit! It’s been awhile since I posted! I was just looking back on some posts and giggled so I think it is important to continue since posts tell the story of my life. These pictures were from our latest venture to Paso Robles to see Coyote! Mark, I, and Charlie drove to Paso Robles California in approximately 18 hours. We stayed three glorious days and drove home within the sametime frame. While we were there, we got to see Hearst Castle, visited San Luis Obispo, saw the ocean and tons of beached Sea creatures, ate amazing food, drank amazing coffee, visited a couple of thrift stores, art galleries, and was surprised to find a outdoor vending machine full of specialty meats and cheeses. We purchased a cheese that was literally black all the way through. It was so good and tasty. It had a wonderful lemon taste to it and was very mild. Our Airbnb was located on a Vineyard. Coyote, Kees, and Pharaday even came over and ...
