thank goodness its friday!!!!!!!!!!! yep its been a long week. with kids getting over there colds and a whiney 9 year old it has been fun. but today i am cleaning and cleaning to get all these nasty bugs out of my house. tomorrow its the trunk o treat at the church and that should be fun. the kids had a halloween day at school but of course i cant go with sick kids. oh well nothing to excting today but hey atleast its FRIDAY...A-

much better

so things have been a little crazy at our house this past week. corey was home with a hurt back and the kids were sick, and not just boogers this time. wyatt was home thurs and then friday him and cameron were home cuz of vomit. can i just tell u i hate vomit. well cameron got better, the boogers are just about gone, corey is back to work and i took wyatt into the doctors yesterday. the poor kid has a sinus infection and a ear infection. he is on some good antibotics and is acutally eating today. good sign for him. well banana bread is in the oven and the kids are content. i think it is going to be a good day. now if i can get into the shower A-

sewing project #3

ok so u cant quite see the whole effect but i still need to hang them up. simple basic curtains again but i found these sunflower napkins at the dollar store and sewed them on. kinda of a applique look to them. anyway hopefully they will work cuz i am sick of the nasty blinds that are in my kitchen..

sewing project #2

so its on its side but these are samantha's curtains. i just made simple curtains and added a ribbon to the top and bottom. not bad huh..

toothless wonder

so cameron has lost a few teeth in the past week or so. it is really funny when he tries to say his SSSS sounds.

feeling better

so i am over my ugh. house is clean and that was very theraputic. went and did my errands and now tomorrow i can finish the laundry and hopefully finish my curtains..(yes and will take pictures). now off for dinner, homework and bath and bed time. hope it goes well A-

ugh!!!!!

so i have not posted in a while do to getting few sewing projects done. yes i need to take pics but have not done so yet. my house is an awful disaster mess today with crap everywhere. my husband is home with a hurt back and of course that is always fun. kids are boggery and awnry and i just dont want to do anything. i should be cleaning, do laundry and getting something done like grocery shopping but i have no desire what so ever to do anything. how can i get my butt in gear to do any of the above? anyone got any good ideas cuz i am just stuck today. i need therapy..ok well maybe just a big candy bar or a good walk on the treadmill.. A-

sitting here

so i am sitting here blogging instead of cleaning my house. how sad is that but emmett is asleep and the other 2 are playing. plus i am out of cleaners and need to go to the store so i can clean my house. the basment did get clean and then laundry is on the line. now i have to wait for emmett to get up. but hey that is ok. i really dont want to do it anyway A-

sewing project #1

so i got my pillows done the other night and was pretty proud of my self. i am not a semstrist nor do i clam to be, but i can do simple things like this. i had a pile of jeans that i was going to make into a quilt but decided first to make some throw pillows for my couches. i cut apart 3/4 pairs and then had some flannel that i used for the backs. after getting them together i stuffed them with some old pillows i had kept. did not cost me a dime. what a deal. now i have something new out of something old.

fascination

emmett has found his toes this past week and he cant get enough of them. every time he lays down now he has to grab his toes. he as even tried to put them in his mouth. it is really funny. he likes it too when i take his socks off but it is getting colder here so socks are kinda important.

nothing really exciting

so nothing to exciting around here. just doing all the normal mommy things like laundry dishes etc. i have though started the process of doing a few sewing projects. i am kinda excited about them which is weird for me but hey that is ok. i got my new camera and corey has been working on the car. we have to replace the engine in our p.o.s. car but hopefully that will be done soon. then it is time to get this house back together. i swear every room on this house has something that needs done or fixed. its ok this to will get done. i did make rolls and cookies today which both are horrible to the waste line. enough for today. talk to u tomorrow A-

broken camera

so after a lazy morning with the kids i fiugured i go shower so then i could get a few things done. well after a great shower i come out of the bathroom to find that my children have busted my camera. i was a little pissed and then realized i bought the warrenty for it. so after a few minutes on the phone i will be able to go and get a new camera. the kids are lucky... so now its off to conquer the rest of the laundry and pick up the house. oh ya and some lunch..A-
