Swinging on your "Belly" & Climbing the "Ladder"

Thursday, January 31, 2008

Today I had to go to my parents house to cut my dad's hair for him and then off for more aron's so I put the kids in the play area with there cousins while I cut his hair.. in the meantime both Sophia and Talon went to take there naps and Drew and Brody wanted out of the play area.. so Nana brought them over to the swings and all of the sudden Brody ran up to the big swing and copied his cousin Dylan who was doing it before.. I couldnt believe it, I guess it surprised me that Brody would know how to do that.. But he loved it.. he laughed and swang on his belly for a long time..

Drew just enjoy swinging the right way...

Then out of nowhere Brody decied to climb the ladder.. He had no fear of it at all.. Nana grabbed him before him climbed up to the top.. But I was so amazed with him today..

Look at him Go... That's Far Enough....

After this we went home and all their friends were outside so we played infront of Tammy's house until daddy got home...

New Toy for D+B...

Wednesday, January 30th, 2007

Today I went to "HomeGoods" and found this really cute toy for the kids, Its like the toy a couple weeks ago that was at my parents house that they really liked.. But this one is attached to a table and has an "Ocean" theme like there room.. so I am so excited.. I brought it in and didnt even have time to clean it they started to play with it.. they had so much fun together with it..I am so glad I got it..

Here it is....

Drew found it first in the morning...

But then my little Bubba's got it..

I put it up in there room.. So now they want to play upstairs in there room because its in there..

Park Day Again..

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

This is the first time that I took them both to the park by myself... I decied to pack them up in there cars and roll them on over to our park and planned to have a pretty good day together at the park- but of course my luck..that never happened.. right as I pulled up with them this little boy comes running up to me with another little boy and asks me if he can ride in the cars, I told him no, because I had there lunches in the car as well as my camera and cell phone.. he continued to say that he wants to sit in them.. I again said no and went on my way up the slide with the kids.. As I am walking them up the stairs the little boys jumps in there cars and says to me.. We are only going to sit in them.. I was so upset, as I was keeping my cool.. I nicely asked them to please get out of the cars like I asked...they did not !! I came back down the stairs and told them once more to PLEASE GET OUTR OF THE CARS.. NOW.. and still remained in the cars.. I was like HELLO.. who the heck are your parents and where are they... Finally a man walks over from the swings with another kid and says to the kids "Did that women tell you to get out of those cars .. Three Times".. then he instructs them to get out and so they did.. in the mean time I am going up and down the stairs so they can enjoy there day at the park.. after he told the kids to get out, he looks at the lady who is sitting right BEHIND ME... who heard everything that I said.. and tells her "Is this what you do here.. yo ulet them disrespect other people.. and so on.. SHE IS THE MOTHER!! and actully said.. Its no big deal they were just sitting in them.. I Was So MAD!!! i did everything I could to not go over there and knock her out.. So you would think that was it right.. Nope !! Theres more, I let the kids walk up the stairs and they go around the corner and then down the slide.. over and over.. I grab them from the bottom walk them back to the stairs.. so as my two are walking up the stairs this same kid starts running inbetween them up and down the stairs, then he would run up to the slide and just sit in it, so my kids cant go down it.. as I am holding my kids back due to this punk not going down I turned and looked at the mother who is sitting there doing nothing and said to her " Your kid is desperate for attention... and I cant give it to him.. do you think that you can get up and give him the attention that he is screaming for so my kids can enjoy there day at the park.. The women did nothing.. the husband came back over and removed him.. OMG!!! I see where the kid gets it from.. I hope I never run into that woman again..So Anyways, Sorry that was my ramble for the week.. Here are the few shots that I took before we left..

Brody wouldnt wait until I took this picture.. He just dove in there..

Here he is...
and there's Drew...

Rainy Day !!!

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

Today was another rainy day, and daddy is out on a job so its just me and the kids.. it was so cold today.. so I finally put the kids in these cute footies pajamas.. I have been waiting for the perfect stay at home , relaxing, not going anywhere day.. and today is that day.. they look so cute in them.. and they were so warm and snuggly..too cute..

Here is Brody with a "Big" Smile...

Drew thought she was big stuff standing on the book..

They were running up to me saying .."Out".. "Out" and so I should them why we cant go out.. what a mistake that was..

I opened the door so they can see the raining thinking they "Wouldnt" go out into the water but I was wrong.. at first Brody stopped but then Drew, well she walked out there and got all wet then Brody kneeled down to slide down the step.. I got him before he went down but at this point I had to change them both and dry them off.. Wont do that again..

Sophia came to play..

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Today was a another fun day.. Mark had the day off work and my parents had to go to another car show that they are in so.. we have Miss Sophia for the day.. They dropped her off about 11:00ish and she fell fast asleep in my arms.. So I had three kids today and all were sleeping.. nice.. but then Drew woke up and after we came down stairs she noticed Sophia on the sofa and went running up to her.. but she didnt touch her, because she was sleeping-

She did however stand and stare over Sophia until she woke up..it was so cute.. She would point to her and say Hi.. over and over..It was a real surprise for her when she opened her eyes.. but she was happy too..

Then my little guy woke up so I ran up and got him and told him that Sophia is here and as he was slidding down the stairs he saw her and got so excited... he went running up to her and gave her a toy that he picked up on the way..

Brody wanted to sit on the sofa, then Sophia wanted up then Drew.. So I put Drew on Brody's lap and snapped this shot of the three of them.. So Cute !!

After playing and eating lunch together it was Mommy/Auntie's break time.. AKA "Sesame Street Time".. and I put all three up on the sofa with there water and they all watched the show together..

Some how in the middle of the show, Drew and Brody decieded that they wanted to sit closer to Sophia so I didnt mind as long as she didnt care.. and she didnt ..

Thanks for hanging out with us.. Love You Sophia XOXO XOXO

Brody Climbs "Out" of his crib.. Boom !!

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

I had a very exciting morning thanks to my son Brody.. and I was sitting in my "Scrapebook" room .. I heard Brody wake up like normal .. then I heard him bouncing around laughing.. and then "BOOM".. I went running in the room as I heard this scream and sure enough.. he is in the middle of the room.. My sister Jamie told me that if he ever looks like he is going to climb out just take the front of the crib off and I thought no way.. not my Brody, he would never try something like that.. and now I am eating my words.. at 15 months old my little guy decieded that he was going to call the shots.. so he thinks.. ( I dropped the bed to the floor.. it ought to by me some more time at least a few more months...) So anyways, before I should him what I was going to do.. I wanted to know what and how he did it.. so I put him back inside the crib and here it is..
I stopped him after he again almost went over.. so he got mad.. it got worse for him once I dropped the mattress to the floor..

My "34th" Birthday....

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

My Birthday is today.... OMG.. I'm 34 years old.. that is a really hard number to say out loud.. I cant believe that I am in my thirds... it feels like I should be saying 24 years old..not 34.. I am starting to feel the oldness coming on.. Lets do a comparison of how far I have come from being 24.. to 34..

#1- At 24 yrs old I would {PARTY "ALL" NIGHT LONG...} until like 3 in the morning then I would get up at 7am and get ready for work and do it all over again..

#1- At 34 yrs old.. I couldn't imagine being awake at 3am.. for anything..On New Years Eve I was in bed at 10 am.. I was so tried the next day.. and I think my back even hurt!!

#2- At 24 yrs old I would go to so many "Punk Rock" shows, We would drive to LA to San Diego even went once to Mexico to see a show.. Love ever minute of it.. had so much fun.. everything

#2- At 34 yrs old I am thinking about taking my kids to see "Disney on Ice".. I wouldn't dream of going to Mexico to see anything anymore.. and who wants to go and hang out with a bunch of tattooed people pushing each other.. I would rather snuggle up on the sofa and watch a movie..

#3- At 24 yrs old I would dye my hair so many different colors and do so many crazy things with my hair.. I loved it, I meet my husband Mark with"Pink" hair..

#3- At 34 yrs old I would love to maybe get highlights of red throughout it..Or maybe some bronze high lights.. nothing to crazy..

#4- At 24 yrs old I would wear the biggest platform crazy shoes that I could find.. and I would wear them all night long..at times I would even fall asleep in them..

#4- At 34 yrs old you will usually find me in flip/flops or soft fuzzy slippers or some kind of slip on shoes.. If I wear a nice heel to like a wedding or something they will usually be off after I walk in and say my hello's...

#5- At 24 yrs old I would love talking on the phone for hours.. I don't think I ever put the phone down.. and back then most phones were still connected to the wall and or so big that your neck would hurt if you were on it to long..

#5- At 34 yrs old.. are you kidding me talk for hours on the phone.. yeah right "Email Me".. or leave a message and I will reply to you via email with my answer..

I am not going to go on any longer with this list, I could but it only proves my point in the fact that I am getting "OLD".. now on to my day..

Knock .. Knock... ( You Say- "Who's There" ) Flowers that's who !!!! Look at my beautiful flowers that I got today...They are so pretty and smell so good.. Thank You Baby.. and Babies..

I think the person who wrote this card is somewhere in the early 20's and possibly had a long night.. look at how she spelled "Mama"..
The my sister and Skyler, Dylan and Talon stopped by with some candy and this totally cute balloon.. with two very nice gifts... Thank You, Vargas Family

This is me with my two "Sweethearts" that I love so much..

They were getting ready for bed...Goodnight..

And her is Daddy and I at our favorite Sushi restaurant " Riptide".. We started a new way of eating on January 4th, 2008 and have been doing so good with it.. but tonight we cheated a little.. I order the Spinach/Cheese/Artichoke dip and Calamari for appetizers.. Yummy If I am going to cheat - I am going to make it count !!!
I had a wonderful birthday.. Thank You everyone for the calls.. and wishes.. and even to those of you who choose to sing to me.. I Thank You To..
