Yucky Weather Wednesday!

I just wanted to say hello and post a tag I got from a friend of mine today. She said I had to or else. So here goes...

My 9 favorite t.v. shows:

-Law and Order SVU
-CSI Miami
-The Biggest Loser
-Real Housewives of Orange County, Atlanta, New York or wherever else. (can't believe I admit to that)
-Damages
-Nip/Tuck (or that either)
-Reruns of The Sopranos (Brian and I want the box set)
-First 48 Hours, Forensic Files etc...
-Joel Osteen sermons on t.v.

9 things that happened to me today:

-watched Barney with Zane
-changed 15,000 pull ups
-put Zane on the potty several times
-walked Biskit in the wind which scared him senseless and he would not poop!
-talked to my hubby on the phone
-picked out Valentine presents for Brian, Elijah, and Zane
-looked for a picture for Elijah's 5th grade yearbook ad that is not embarrassing!
-opened up a box from UPS with my new living room rug in it!(yeah me!)
-posted this silly tag on my blog!

9 things I am thankful for:

-my 2 healthy boys
-my unbelievably supportive husband
-the opportunity to stay home with Zane for a little while
-God's abundant blessing for my family
-my cardio twister (it makes fat melt faster)
-my Boston Terrier Biskit
-protection, grace, and favor for my family in the midst of economic and social turmoil
-my handbag collection
-our new flatscreen t.v. in our bedroom so we can watch it while we drift off! (not very profound but true)

Okay, enough about me, Elijah was sick this last weekend with a stomach bug but he is better. Zane is in desperate need of a haircut but refuses so I will have to sedate him or hold him down whichever will work best!! I bought a Cardio Twister a couple of weeks ago and it is the coolest piece of exercise equipment ever. It twists your upper body while your lower is stepping. I do it 5 times a week or so. It has sped up my weight loss a little bit so I am happy with it. Well that's all for now. I will have more later!

Zanes monkey face!

He was really into his Barney video apparently! He is the most animated, full of expression kid I think I have ever seen. You can't help but laugh at him!

Bouncing on his ball

He will sit and bounce up and down on this ball his Uncle Shane got him for 2 hours. He loves to jump and bounce. The ball will move all around the room and he goes with it bouncing along!

Zanes new diaper bag!

I got this bag on Ebay a few days ago. I sell a lot of things on Ebay for fun and extra money and I found a lady that makes these by hand and sells them so I got her to put Zanes name on one. It turned out really cute. Elijah picked out the colors. It is just the right size for short outings when I don't want to carry my pocket book and a big diaper bag I can grab the little one. I have her link if anybody needs a new diaper bag.

Brian and his Granny for the last time

Brian went up to Maryville to see his Granny on Saturday afternoon. She passed on this afternoon around 4:30. She was still very much aware of what was going on around her. He took her some pictures of the boys on Saturday so she could keep one by her bed. We brought the boys up once a month or so to visit her at the nursing home and she enjoyed playing with Zane. She went about as peacefully as someone can.

We got a lot of snow (finally)!

What a surprise to get all of this snow! It was a good opportunity for the boys to play outside. Zane is not crazy about it he fusses when we get him ready but he likes to watch Elijah roll around in it!

Mommy and Zane

My very thoughtful hubby got me a new North Face jacket that I have been eyeballing for early Valentines Day. I hate wearing jackets but I really liked this one. He gave it to me yesterday so I got to put it to good use today!

Happy Snowy Groundhog Day!

Can you believe this mess? I had no idea this morning when I kissed Brian goodbye at 6:15 that it would look like this a few hours later. This is probably not a great indicator for Groundhogs Day! Oh well at least the kids can use their snow days.

Biskit loves his toys!

Biskit got a new toy on Saturday and you can see he really loves it! That's his favorite thing to do is tear the squeakers out of his toys and remove all the stuffing. At least it's not the couch!

Hotel For Dogs!

Brian and I went to see the movie "Hotel for Dogs" last night at the Pinnacle at Turkey Creek. It is a great family movie! It is not quite attention holding enough for a 2.5 year old but it is fantastic. Zane would have liked seeing the dogs in it and watching their antics but the story line would have been too much for him. We enjoyed it though! There is a Boston Terrier named "Georgia" in it and she is the cutest thing ever!(except Biskit) I wish I could have 5 just like her to bring home to Biskit! Of course I would have no place to put them and they won't all fit under the covers like Biskit does, but it would be great! Brian and I don't often go out alone but we are trying to do it a little more. Our alone time is basically when all the babies big, small, and furry are asleep and we can sit in bed and watch a movie until we doze off. We highly recommend that movie for kids and adults alike. It is a good family film and there is a Boston in it what else do you need?!
