Backdrop practice

My FAVORITE shot of the day, Sweet Mr. Teddy Bear and all his rolls!!




Since it is too hot to practice outside. Sammi and I did indoor photography practice today. We did some really cute shots of Teddy Bear for his 5 month pics and some of my kiddos too since we had the backdrop anyway. Then she went home and we all took naps!!! Yea for naps... Then this afternoon we went to the splash pad again.

It's 4 am..

and for some reason I am awake, I do not want to be a wake, nonetheless I am. That is a bad thing since when I am awake against my will like this my mind tends to wander places I do not want it to go. So to combat that I am blogging, about the silly little things that have crossed my mind this week. Sorry, in advance for the random topic changes, that is what you get at 4 am.

1. . Who knew Hootie was back?? As a country singer?? I used to love Hootie and the Blowfish, specifically Darius Rucker and I have been listening to this songand loving it and I was THRILLED to find out it was him.
2. Bobcat got bitten by something today that made his head swell up in two places, it looked like he got hit with a baseball bat. KB says it was buffalo nats and that his Pa Paw used to do the same thing. It freaked me out but a little benedryl later and he seemed to be better and he slept good to boot!!
3. I discovered that coffee and my OCD meds do not mix....bad for me...no more coffee...:(
4. Bulldog has been resisting naps all the sudden, it takes lots of effort to get him to sleep these days and by the time I do actually get him asleep, I am tired too!
5. Sunshine and Bobcat have taken to sleeping together in the same bunk, Sunshine was having nightmares and their creative Daddy put them together and they have been sleeping soundly every night since.
6. Buttercup and I got haircuts and color by our good friends JW's sister. Mine feels so great and I LOVE it. Buttercup got a pink streak, she has been wanting one and it was free and temporary so I figured what the heck?
7. last night the kids and I joined the Johnsons for a birthday dinner (Sammi)at Sumo's habachi grill the kids loves it and Bulldog experienced his first habachi, he and bobcat ate an enourmous amount of food!!
8. KB and I went to see the HANGOVER and I think it is without a doubt the funniest movie we have ever seen. I must admit, it is not for the faint of heart but if you are over 18, I dare you to watch it and not laugh until you cry. It is all kinds of wrong, but oh soooo hysterical.
   
9. The boys all have Dr. appointments this week (on seperate days). Bulldog is FINALLY getting his 1 year shots that he could not get before becasue of his non swine, flu.
10. My dad started a blog, and I am thrilled. He is a gifted writer and thinker. His first post nearly brought me to tears. My darling husband and I are blessed to have several great, long lasting, marragies to model ourselves after, my parents being one. It is so comforting to see that you can travel lifes road with someone and still be together and utterly in love even long down the road after a some bumpy travel along the way. I am so proud to call my parents, my parents and my friends.
11. Looking forward to Bobcats birthday this weekend, another GREAT cake from the Maguire house!! YUM

12. We are dog sitting this week for my sister. She and her family are going to Florida (without us, sniff, sniff, :( ) and so we get THUNDERSLEET the cha ce wa (as my nephew says). Good times.

Well, I am sleepy again now and so it is back to bed for me.

No words

Can possibly express the feelings, the love, the sentiments that seeing this man brings to my mind!! He is unselfish, hardheaded, loving, sweet, funny, silly, even tempered to a fault, unfailing.... I could go on and on and never say enough about this man. So I will just say that he is the best father I could ever ask for to our children! He gives us the world and our children are so lucky to have him. When I see him with the I KNOW without a doubt that God exists, nothing could be as perfect as seeing the loves of my life playing, holding, loving, taking care of, our children!! Thank you so much for all you do Happy fathers day!!!

Daddy is SOOO funny..

No Ric Rac Here...

This post contains no ric rac. So everyone (okay not everyone) made fun of bulldogs precious birthday outfit that Other mommy made him, because apparently SOME people think blue ric rac is only for girls, But I am not bitter though (can you tell?). Anyway I have developed an obsession for fabric recently and since I cannot sew a lick I Mrs. Sammi has been nice enough to sew some things for me!! So here is her latest creation, I LOVE it. She is soon opening an ETSY.com store where you too can own cute outfits such as this. Please excuse the quanity of pics in this post as I had a hard time limiting them, they were so cute!!

New blog

We have a new blog for various reasons. For one thing we like this name better. Those of you close to us know the other MAJOR reason, enough said. We will now only be referring to our kiddos by their "blog names" so try to keep up!!! Now back to blogging as usual.
