I Love Music

…of course, so does everyone, right? I mean how many people have you heard that have said “I hate music?” None. Everyone has their own preferences, but music in general everyone can relate to. Music videos on the other hand… my guess to what the directors were thinking are included in parenthesis.

Shut Up and Let Me Go by The Ting Tings
(This director made a time machine and skipped directly from 1985 to 2008)

How I Could Just Kill A Man by Charlotte Sometimes
(This director had an excess of red paint, barely controlled wrath, runny mascara and gloves to match)

Pork and Beans by Weezer
(I don’t even know what to say about this director, except for maybe he wanted to kill his career and Miss South Carolina’s at the same time)

Pictures

So we haven’t had a camera the past few weeks to update everyone with my adorable little babies (who are only getting bigger and bigger). Miss Karen sent a few to us and we thought we’d post them (thank you).

Yeah

Well I actually finished it a couple of hours ago, but then went out with the hubby and kids since I had ignored them for about 24 hours. I won’t spoil the ending, but yes all 768 pages were so worth it. And just in case anyone was wondering, I was not the only mom there for the 12:01 releasing, there were quite a few waiting with their teenage daughters.

Where is she?

Day one of the Märia watch. Where has she gone?! No more posts?!! Has the Brotherhood captured her?!!

AHHHHH.

I Am Such a Nerd

It is now 8:46PM, and I am anxiously waiting until 12:01AM to get my copy of Breaking Dawn. Do not expect any more monotonous or extremely unimportant updates from me until I am finished with the book. My girls have no idea how lucky they are that Dad will be home with them to feed and change them in the next 2 days while Mom is otherwise occupied.

Dude, I Am So Going to Be a Professional Shadow Puppet When I Grow Up

ATTENTION: Nurses!!!

What do you do if you are a victum of an insect wanting to take up residence in your…. EAR?

It all began when I was showing off my little Bella to one of my swimming students. We were having a rather interesting conversation when something flew directly into my ear! I sort of froze in shock and then preceeded to yell as well as attempt to dig this creature out of my ear. When the use of my finger didn’t work I moved on to the pool. I thought I could perhaps flush it out. SO I TRIED…. At one point two of my students told me it was coming out. In a panic I attempted to pick it out. NO GOOD! After this…. it disappeard. Was it still in my ear? The girls tried to reasure me that it had probably came out. But you see… I have absolutely no evidence to back up that claim!

Unfortunately… I have been one of these victims. So Please, I need some advice.

In Bloom

I woke up this morning with Nirvana’s “In Bloom” stuck in my head. What’s that you say? No one knows the words to any Nirvana song? Well, thanks to Rockband at Jason’s house, I do.

new… shamefully spoken

Sarah and I have been talking about it for a while, and decided that even though some of you know.. eventually the rest of you are going to find out… So this is the official notice to all of you.. judge us.. or whatever.. Sarah and I have good reason to believe it’s a girl and chose to name her bella. We are telling you now because we do finally have pictures to show of our new addition. Now obviously these pictures are prearrival, but I think it’s pretty delightful anyway. So.. here’s you first glimpse of her. Don’t judge us.. just love us..

Our Next Place Is So Having Hard Wood Floors

So when you have 2 in diapers, a huge portion of your life revolves around bowel movements. And my daughters have 4-6 a day each. That’s right, there’s 8-11 poopy diapers a day at my house (I started keeping track because I wondered). And that’s normal for them (I am mildly envious of moms who’s children poop only 1x a day).

Anyways that would be all fine and dandy, if what Seporah started doing wasn’t so bad. About 2 months ago she started taking off her diaper now and them. However in the past 3-4 weeks, she has taken off her diaper EVERY SINGLE TIME she’s pooped. No amount of “hold on while I get the wipes!” or “in the bathroom!” will stop her (heaven forbid if I’m doing the dishes in the kitchen or feeding Felicity in the girl’s room). Do you know what that means? That means poop has gotten on the carpet, more than once, more than twice, so many times I don’t even want to try to count. Our house unfortunately has a new aroma, one I am quite embarrassed about (Steven IS cleaning the carpet when I go to Washington in September).

The only good thing I can think of is is hopefully she’s getting closer to potty training. I’ve learning over and over again you can bring the child to the potty, but you sure can’t make her use it.
