In case you needed a smile

Naomi made a decision that Victor did not agree with. As she was hauling all of her bedding back to her bed Victor called to her, "I don't love you anymore!"

Without missing a beat she continued on her walk, calling over her shoulder, "You'll love me in the morning!"




While dining in our home the other night Naomi let out some seriously noisy gas. Everyone cracked up. Victor continued to giggle hysterically at everything all through the meal. Ethan asked him if he had gotten some laughing gas from Naomi.  More hysterical giggling. "I toot laughing gas!"


Caleb came charging out of the bathroom naked after having a bath. He had toilet paper streaming from between his bum cheeks.
Me; "Caleb get back in there and throw that toilet paper in the toilet!"
Caleb :" No mom! It's my horsie tail!"


I also love Lindt chocolate.

Mr. Dreamy

My husband is awesome. He really is. And right now he is sleeping. He never naps. NEVER. I love napping so when he is home and naps with me it is wonderful. A very occasional treat. He definitely earned today's nap.

He stayed up with the baby ALL night while she vomited. Phebe is taking an impressive nap herself.  I am so grateful that he was willing to take care of her. I am also really glad that he had today off from work.
He told me that is was about 4:30am by the time she really started to calm down. I heard her again by 6.

I am so blessed to have such a partner. It is wonderful to have him in my life. He needed an honorable mention.

Stuff I Made

These are pictures of things that I have made. I think they are cool and you should take the time to admire them. There is a lot of time between these projects so don't go thinking I'm all crafty-like.

These are miniatures that I painted. I think  they turned out really neat. The quality doesn't show up quite as well in these pictures as in reality. But I am still proud of them.  



This is a quilt that my husband and I made out of his old work shirts.

This is what I made from Sculpey. It is a cobra.

 And a heart I turned into a neclace. Yup, ribbon and a paper clip and suddenly it is jewelry. I am so amazing.

These things make me happy. I wanted to share.

Scuplie

Sculpie is an AMAZING product. It is like clay, but will only harden if you bake it.  I have decided one of our Christmas traditions will be each one of us making a new ornament out of it. This stuff is tough and you can do anything with it.

Here are some of the things that we did with it. Most of this is Ethan's since his are just vastly superior to mine.


Ok, well I don't have time right now, I'll give you some more later. Those two are both Ethan's. Yea. He is amazing.

Even Katara has Hair Loopies.

Every once in a while I come across something that I wish would never end. ( Things I don't enjoy seem to go on forever. )

My husband I used Netflix to watch Nickelodeon's "Avatar, the Last Air Bender". If you have not see that show I can not recommend it enough. Yes, it is designed for kids. Yes, I love it anyway. It is just so good.

I admit it. I will sit through nearly ANYTHING if you give me witty dialogue. Oh how I love good banter.

The best part is that Avatar has MORE than just great lines. Avatar has GREAT lines, good animation, fantastic story lines, fascinating concepts, respectable morals and interesting characters. I seriously wish that show would keep going. There are so many quote able lines.

I have not seen the movie. I can not vouch for its value. From what I have heard, I think I will spare myself the agony.

Seriously add it to your Netflix list. So good.
