Safest Place On Earth......

Seems to me that this is something parks should disclose in their brochures!! And doesn't 9 deaths in the last three years seem a bit high to you to never of heard anything about them till now?? Makes me wonder the stats of other parks....Wonder how you find them? Who am I kidding their probably under lock in key being guarded by secret service.....Cause ya know if stuff like that got out, they might ***gasp*** lose money!!! Heaven forbid!! Yes its much better to keep the public in the dark about those things....You wouldn't want to upset the public with such stats, besides I'm sure your park had nothing to do with the cause of any of the deaths, "So keep buying overly priced tickets to all the parks, ladies and gentlemen, its the safest place on earth!!"

The First "Bubble" Bath......


You forget how amazing somethings are, because we're use to them and there for don't think twice about it. Like Bubbles in the bath. Its a bubble bath no big deal...right? But to those little guys that have never seen bubbles in there bath.....They were Amazed!!! Studying and analizing....The wonder that is Bubbles in your bath.

Exhausted.....HNT.....


I'm exhausted this week so I'm cheating a little with HNT. What's half nakkid you might ask? Well my hair...There's nothing covering it.... And I am showing a little cleavage, so I didn't totally cheat!! HHNT to everyone!!

Revenge

Explosions light up the sky

Echoing sounds of human cries

Innocent children die

At the violent hand of war

A heavy price to pay

for revenge.

Beautiful or Smart.........

As I was waiting at the doctors with Carter last week I was flipping through a magazine on the counter of the cast room with my one free finger. It was one of those fashion/makes women feel fat magazines we all love to hate. They had a quiz of somesorts in there that I glanced at. I'm not sure what it was about as after seeing the first question I was to perplexed to care. The first question went something like this "How would you like others to think of you, as beautiful or as smart?" Ummmm we have to chose? We can't be both?

Then on Saturday I received my Glamour in the mail, as I said we love to hate them, and they had something similar in it. This time it was a trend watch or something, they said that Clark Kent like glasses are the "thing" now. They had a bunch of pictures of gorgeous celebs and the caption read something like "See how smart these beauties look?" LOOK??? So am I to assume your saying that you can't be beautiful and naturally smart, that you need glasses to make you appear as such?? This is all very disturbing to me.

After much thought on this subject, I suppose if I have to chose I'd chose to be smart. My cynical self thinks people would try less to take advantage of me, and less face it beauty fades and I'd like to have a mind to fall back on. Cause I know I wouldn't be able to afford all the plastic!!

I just don't understand why the media is suggesting that we can't be both. Can't we be both Beautiful AND Smart??

O'Reily's and The UFC.....

UFC


The Rebuttal

This is a rebuttal to all the idiotic things O’Reily said in the video you just watched above.

1st: Ali was a boxer. Not a MMA fighter. Therefore you cannot compare the two. That would be like saying that football and hockey are the same.

2nd: Ali does not have Parkinson’s because he chose to be a boxer, boxing did not give him Parkinson’s. I’m pretty damn sure that most Parkinson’s patients were never boxers. Case in point, I feel fairly confident in the assumption that Michael J. Fox never boxed, so how did HE get the awful disease, Mr. O’Reily sir??

3rd: Concussions come with every sport. There are more concussions with high school football I’m sure. Hell I get one once a week at least from Levi throwing a fit and head-butting me in the nose!! I bet more concussions are seen in mothers of toddlers than the UFC!!!

4th: MMA IS safer than boxing for one reason, the refs. The ref can stop it at any time they feel the fighter cannot intelligently defend himself. Unlike boxing were as long as you can get back up before the count of eight, you go right back into the ring for more punches in the head!!! Most fights in the UFC are stopped before they are knocked unconscious.

5th: MMA is no more violent than say hockey or football. And every fighter I’ve ever met, my hubby included, have been the sweetest men, with big hearts and giving spirits. According to you it would be all right as long as they make enough money. But as Rich said, he does it because its his passion, it’s his sport. How lucky are these athletes that they can make a living doing their passion!! We all wish we could say that.

So Mr. O’Reily sir, MAYBE you should research a sport and know more about the rules BEFORE you go spouting off about it!!! And then, maybe just maybe, you wouldn’t look like a total idiot on national TV.

This concludes “The Rebuttal” portion on Good In Theory. Please tune in next week when I’m sure something or someone else will piss me off enough that I feel it warrants a rebuttal, from yours truly.

I don't remember THIS in the contract..............

Ok Jes, just for you here's some really potent birth control for you!!! Every one else is welcome to it to of course!! Yes I know I'm just way too generous!!

Dr. Casper's nurse: Hello Dr. Casper's office how may I help you?

Me: Um yes, this is Katie Kuhn I'm calling about my twins...

DCN: Oh how are Levi and Carter? (never a good sign when you are know by name at a doctors office....)

Me: Well I'm not sure, see they have had loose bright yellow stools for the passed two weeks, and a few have had some blood and mucus in them, I'm starting to get concerned. How long should all this last? (they had been seen the week before, but she said it was probably just a bug, and to wait it out)

DCN: Oh well um hold on the line, let me ask Dr. Casper.

Me: Ok.

***** 5 minutes later*****

DCN: Ok Katie, she said since its been going on for so long she would like a stool sample from each of them so she can test for infection.

Me: Oh ok um I'll just bring in their next diaper.

DCN: Well actually we need it in a zip-loc like container with a lid.

Me: Ummm right, well Ummm..... How exactly would I go about doing that?? See the stool is really loose I'm not sure how I'd get it in the container.

DCN: Just take a plastic spoon and scrap off what you can from the diaper into the container. Then you can dispose of the spoon with the diaper. (no shit...I'm not going to reuse the spoon!!! Thank you for that instruction Einstein!!)

Me: ***sigh*** Um alright, I'll do-do my best! ***snort snort****

DCN: Ok thanks, and when you get them just drop them off. Goodbye.

****** 2 hours and 14 lit matches later******

Chad: Hello?

Me: Well I have just stumped to a new low.... Scraping shit into a zip-loc container!! FYI the brown paper bag in the fridge is NOT food!!

Chad: So you got it did you? Well I guess that's all part of the "mom job" ***laughing hysterically at me**** Man I love MY job!!

Me: Yeah yeah.... HA HA HA!!! I just don't remember this part in the job contract!! Sorry to bother you, go back to your "shit" free wonderful job!!!

Chad: Laughing still***** Sorry Babe.....

Me: I don't get paid enough for this!! I need a raise, what 8% of zero??

****** 10 Minutes later*****

Mom: Hello?

Me: Hey Ma its me, can you come ride along to the doctors with me I have to drop something off, and I can't leave the boys in the car alone.

Mom: Sure, what do you have to drop off?

Me: POOP!!

Mom: Oh. ***pause*** Ok.

So my day was really full of shit!! Hope this was a good dose of birth control for everyone!! It sure was for me!!!

Chad? NO TOUCHING!!!



Black Noir...... HNT

Love vintage nightgowns, especially old Hollywood looking ones!! Marilyn who??

HHNT everyone!

Two Years Ago Today......

The two most important breaths were taken. I met two little miracles that would turn my world upside down and all around!! My babies...Levi Raymond and Carter Stone.( Levi's middle name was my maiden name, and Carter's middle name was my mothers maiden name.)


My life has changed so much. Now I not only have me to think about, but them as well. Things that I would of just let go two years ago, I don't any longer... I have them to think of....And they don't need to hear comments about the lack of name brand items, or that renting is bad, and they don't need to be around childish moody attitudes either. They're gonna get that enough in life!!

I love my boys so much and this has been one tough year for them. But they made it!!! There here....They came in to this life fighting for it, and they're getting better at it everyday. I never thought I'd love strangers so much!!


Levi and Carter I hope the best for you, I pray that you will follow your dreams, what ever they are. Don't worry about what people think of you, and don't let mean spirited people get you down, cause they're out there. If they can make you feel bad then they can feel better about their lives, don't let them!! ALWAYS follow your heart and always stand up for yourself and your brother. And know that I will always be here supporting you NO MATTER WHAT!!! I love you boys.

Mama.....

**Note I tried to add a picture of them now, however blogger has an issue at the moment apparently... So you can scroll down to Sundays post and see them now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Whaaa Hooo!! Party!!

Well the big party was yesterday, and it was a blast!! We all had the best time... Kids and adults alike! As soon as the boys got there and saw their pool they dove right in!! The LOVED it.... We finally pulled them out of it at seven, much to there discontent. They got lots of new toys from every one, they've been very busy playing today. They also got a lot of flirting in with their little girlfriends, and were as ornery as ever!! We all really enjoyed ourselves and I really like seeing how much fun they were having in their pool.... It was a great day more fun than I've had in a long time.... Here's some pics of the Tropical/Tiki party.... Enjoy!!












So another year passes...Way to quickly!!!

The Party.......

Today is party day in more ways than one!! The boys' birthday party is today!! We are so excited, I'm getting ready to go over to mom's and decorate, Chad's going to to stay here with the boys and touch up their awesome fohawks!!! I'll let ya all know how the party goes and try and post a few pics!!

On onther note, I am who I am and who I am is exactly what you get here. I have a brain and the ability to use it to speak my mind about what I see around me and how I feel about certain things. And I'm not going to stop just because SOME people think they can tell me who I am or who they think I am, or who they think I SHOULD be to fit their little molds. And if you don't like my blog and the things I say or do than don't read it it's as simple as that people. We all grow up and start to become more of who we are and care less whether people will like who we are. I guess I'm just becoming more of myself....... I'm not going to apologise for who I am, just because you don't like who I am or who I've become.

Peace Out.................

The Moment.....

We all have them. The moments that stick with you. Memories so vivid in your mind that you just know the events had to effect you and the way you are. You know either help or contribute to all our issues. We all have those too. Now as I view this blog here at times, like therapy, I'm going to share with you some of my "moments" or memories if you will. Most aren't pretty, maybe than those who think I have issues will understand from where I stand. I'm also not going to elaborate on some of them as I feel I'm not ready for that, and quite frankly I need to not share EVERYTHING about my so called life, it would serve to bore you I'm sure. That being said if you would like "more of the story" so to speak, on something email me.... Cause if what I've been through can help someone else who's going through it now cope, than it would almost make going through it worth it.... And maybe that was the purpose all along.

Moment 1: When I was around ten years old, I can remember very distinctly my grandmother telling me this in her living room while she was watching me: "Katie dear you really need to start watching your weight, you don't want to continue to be chubby. When you grow up men won't like you." I remember like it was yesterday, after she said that her phone rang and she got up to answer it, and in my little girl of ten mind, I thought to myself with such vengeful rage, "cause your real thin...not"
Thus I feel defined my life long body issues and eating issues.

Moment 2: Age 15 became extremely sick... Doctor's didn't know what was wrong finally was sent to a neurologist and they discovered I had FM. Most patients with it are ladies 40 and above. My junior year I was tutored at home so I could go to physical therapy and because physically I couldn't get through a day at school. Friends who I thought were close I discovered through this were not... Save for one, (you know who you are my now Florida girl.) Needless to say I missed out on most of the things normal high school kids did. I didn;t go to dances no prom, no parties no after school activities. It's effected my life in everyway, from working to school to family to my goals..... Its a bitch.

Moment 3: When I realized that there our BAD people out there... And men who think they can get away with anything cause their stronger than us...Or so they think. Or people who think because I'm young I'm stupid and can try and put one over on me cause I won't know what to do about it. So for those who say I'm a bit too sarcastic and cynical know that its my defense... I realize that know....And because people have had a hand in making me that way.....

Moment 4: A vague sketchy memory I think to be around age 3 or 4...... At a neighbors house..... When I think back on my childhood, which I had a great one really, there are two memories that pop up always... The lovey thing my grandma said to me and this vague memory, that I'd rather not go into detail on.... Cause I'm not sure at this point what it means.

Moment 5: The birth of my twins, one of the happiest and scariest days of my life!! Hearing them cry for the first time, and then watching them rushed away, not to see them for 24 hours.... Being in recovery having blood pressure problems myself, and having the recovery nurse tell me NICU just called and they had to resuscitate my babies, but that they got them stable and they're on ventilators, cause their lungs weren't mature yet...... Me not able to go to them, to see them to hug them... Me their MOTHER.... Not being with them for 24 hours!!! Then seeing them for the first time, they were the smallest little things I'd ever seen, and being able to hold them for the first time a few days after that.... With tubes and IV's and nurses all around them.... But they were fighting... Just like they're Momma.

Moment 6: The moment I decided to stand up for myself, to speak my mind and to not bend over for people any more..... March 5th 2006....My 24th birthday. And I'm happy to report, I have. And in a way its freed me.

Moment 7: When you realize that you are who you are, and not what people want you to be or think you should be. And just because you're not what they think you should be does not make you a crazy person in need of being medicated!! lol..... It took me a while to get there.

So there you have it.... There were many to chose from but those are the ones I went with.... We all have those "moments". Its what you do about them that matters..... You can let them define you and your life, or you can view them as just what they were, moments....Memories. And yes some of those moments changed the course of our lives but that's to be expected.... You can't map out the course yourself. For our lives can change with every breath we take, and its that one breath that matters.

Listen Up... It's My Life...

This has always been one of my favorite songs. The other day I was listening to some old songs... And this came on, and I hadn't heard it in a while, and it totally spoke to me!! It's so what I've been feeling!! Best line that I just can't get out of my head? "Tired of being what you want me to be..." Way to hit home.

So take a listen to a really good tune from one of the best bands out there... IMO*, Linkin Park... This is Numb.....

*thanks to glo-girl I now know what that means!! Thanks girl!!

Calling All Bellies..........HNT...


Its that time again, unfortunately.... Swimsuit season!! So in honor of the most horrifing season of all I decided to do a belly HNT!!! Damn I must be having a brazen moment!! I even got Chad to show he's belly for HNT.... "No really honey lift up you're shirt........ What you are? My bad!!" LOL Sorry honey couldn't pass that comment up!! Hope everyone has a great day and HHNT!!!

2 Days Left.... ARRGGHH

Two days left to really get anything accomplished for the boys' party on Saturday... Feeling a little stressed!! I did how ever get the food for it today, though the boy's screamed the entire way through the store and then Carter's diaper for what ever reason decided to un do itself. As I was holding him while he's throwing he's store fit.... So I felt something warm go down my shirt and sure enough pee everywhere!! AAARRGGGHH................ Nothing like trying to get groceries with two screaming two year olds, and a pee soaked shirt!! It's my personal belief that the entire store was cheering when we left, I think they threw a party... "Wahooo their gone!!!"

Insane....

Now is it just me or is 400.00$ not INSANE for a stroller?? If your still on the fence about that one than maybe your limit is the 800.00$ one!!! And it's only a one seater!!! Chad is getting a truck for work from a buddy for 800.00!!!!! Granted it has 150k miles but still it runs great and serves it's purpose. Lets see an actual running vehicle, or a stroller..... What should I spend my hard earned income on???!!! It's just plain INSANE, period.

Girltalk.....the weekly survey.....

Ok you ladies... Well men can comment too, I just thought the gals would have more suggestions, if that's sexist I apologize!! Some questions a little survey of sorts....

1. What is your skin care regime, especially the face? I have oily break out prone skin that can be dry in spots. I've found that what use to work for me to keep my skin clear, now makes it burn and flake in spots. I use to have very good results with Proactiv solution, now this last time I bought it, its making my skin burn!! But I still breakout bad if I don't use an acne product.... Any suggestions ladies??

2. What shampoo do you all prefer? I'm also in a shampoo crisis... Maybe cause I'm getting older my hair and skin needs are changing, but as you can figure I'm in a product crisis. My hair is straight (poker straight) and soft and fine... Though I do have a lot of it. It gets VERY oily.... I have to wash it everyday no getting around that or else it looks like Crisco!! I've yet to find a shampoo that will help with the oiliness and the lack of volume and ummphf I desire. All the volumizing products I've tried just leave my hair stringy and dull, but differently NOT volumous! And do you have any secrets to getting your hair to hold the smell of you shampoo? Any suggestions Ladies??

3. Do you shower at night or in the morning? I normally shower in the morning due to my oily hair issue. Though I prefer to shower at night, making my mornings a little less hectic, but my hair sometimes is already oily by the time I get up and I go to bed with it wet!! You can imagine my flustration when I wake to damp yet oily hair!! How's that possible?? So when is the best time to shower??

4. What body wash and lotion do you use? My back is breakout prone as well, but not as bad as in high school.... I've found that tea tree satin soup has helped a lot, However I am VERY sensitive to things and while my skin can be oily it is also very dry and itchy.... Most fragrant lotions, like from Bath and Body Works, do make me itch. Any suggestions Ladies??

5. What brands of makeup do you like? What are the best for my skin type... I'm usually just a powder blush and mascara girl.... What are the best ones? Ladies??

That will conclude our weekly survey. Please help us and by us I mean ME, by answering and suggesting where you can! Thanks and have a wonderful night!!!

Thank You........

Thank you all for all the support you gave in regards to my last post. It helped a lot to know you are all out there listening and that I am normal!! A special thanks to Anthony.... Thanks for the extra "conversations"!!

Also after very careful thoughtful consideration I decided what I need is a gay best friend!! LOL Really its the answer to everything!! I'm thinking like an "Anthony" from Sex and the City!! Totally.

I also wanted to post a very adorable pic we got of the boys yesterday... We actually got one of them together!! Now I may be a little tiny bit bias, but I think they are the cutest.... They should be in commercials!!! The Pampers babies have nothing on these little dudes!!

More later....

Here I Am Again.........

It's 8:30 in the evening and here I am again, alone. The twins are in bed and Chad is at a MMA fight up in the Flatts... That's up in Cleveland. I'm telling you I need an interest or something, though it probably wouldn't matter cause I'm the mom, and apparently am the one that has to give up EVERYTHING!!

Now I know Chad helps out a lot he's a great Dad... I'm just in a funk lately, bored and tired of always being alone. Chad works looong hours and trains and goes to fights which is cool...... But I get a little stir crazy at times!! Does it make me a bad mother to get bored with my 23 month twins??? I can't go anywhere by myself with them for obvious reasons, cause I personally don;t have four hands..... God shorted me a few rendering me handicapped when it comes to handling two year old twin boys.

Friends? You may ask.... Do blog friends count? Problem there is you all live far away!! See I lost a lot of friends when I got married at 19. That's just not where they were in life, most of them in college and such. See Chad is 7 years my senior, we fell in Love and he was ready to settle down already.... And truth be told I was in love and ready myself. Now I have this thing, see I have a hard time finding mom friends and when I do they;re the type that can only hold a conversation if it has to due with their children. I HATE that!!! Yes we've had kids, yes we are mothers.... But NO they do not define us!! You don;t have to give up all you are when you have kids rendering you socially unable to hold a conversation with someone unless it has to due with poop and sippy cups!!! When I get together with someone I'd like to have an outlet from my children, so to do nothing but talk about the kiddos is not helpful to me....... If that makes me weird it wouldn't be the first thing!! My greatest fear you see is to lose my sense of self, and only be defined as mother.......

I tend to get along better with people who are older than me, must be why Chad is 7 years older..... Maybe I'm just an old soul. My single friends are fun and I get to hear about their awesome lives and its way cool and a great outlet and fun conversations, but they tend to drop me like a hot potato once they have "a significant other", though even though I was married, never did that to them. I'm sure not all singles are like that, maybe its just a maturity thing and older singles wouldn't do that, I'm not sure. But its tough. Of course not being able to get out and do anything cause I'm always having to be with the twins, does make it hard to meet anybody!!

So that's my funk I've been in, that's what it's all about. At 24 I can't help but wander....

Is this it??



The Baby Mohawks.............


So this morning I decided that I was going to camp out under my sheets and get some much need "not-a-mom time". When I finally emerged from my tent of blankets, Chad was feeding the boys, and said he was going to buzz their hair while they were in their highchairs. Cool.... They needed their hair cut!! 30 minutes later, he calls me in to the kitchen, and what do I have? Two little mini Chuck Liddells running around!! (note: that's a ufc fighter) Daddy had given them baby mohawks!! And I must admit they're pretty damn cute!!! What'da think??

Friday, June 09, 2006

Why...

Choking anger rushing through my veins

Drowning in resentment

Agitated.... Afraid....... Misunderstood

Loneliness is pliable

I can't change it


Shouldn't have to.

To Feel Like A Woman...... HNT......


I've got this thing for vintage nightgowns. I love the way they make you feel.... Old Hollywood glamour mixed right in with your normal life!! For some reason I feel more like a woman when I slip into one.... So HHNT to all!!!

The Incredible Kat.........

This chick amazes me!! Her tattos are unbelivable!! She's such a talented artist
and to think that she's my age!! I love watching her work on Miami Ink!! Talented and gorgous, in my opinion anyway.
Let me know what you think.... If I ever got a tatto I would want it to be from her!! The Detial she gets in her tattos just amazes me!! So realistic, you can check out more of her work by looking at her gallery, these were just some of my favorites.

The Heart Attack.........

I was giving the boys a snack while I prepared myself dinner....(for those of you wandering I ate around six...And I had garlic roast beef with green beans and potatoes...) And while I was preparing the meal it happened. I turned around a glimpsed at the boys and noticed Carter was all reddish purplish and doing a silent gag..... I tried pounding on he's back and rising he's arms, nothing, still he did not breath so I grab him and pushed on he's belly, panic rushing through me all I could think of was losing him. After the first push he let a little gag out and then nothing again, he still wasn't breathing.... This time I bent him over and pushed up on he's belly.... And finally, he threw up all he had eaten and then made a really hard gagging sound and then the most beautiful sound in the world, at least at that moment, he started to scream and cry!! It scared him no doubt and gave me a freakin' heart attack!! I called Chad home to make sure he was all right and I didn't push to hard on he's belly..... He cried for a while and clung on to me, but now he's playing like it never happened..... Not as easy for me to forget!!!

So there ya have it... I probably grew three grey hairs from that and gave my adrenaline a very good work out!!!

Alright Then........

Ok then, my blog took a really bad turn today, it was actually posting the words BEHIND the template!!! I tried EVERYTHING!! So I finally had to accept defeat and change my template.... I went back to a blogger one so cross your fingers that it well continue to work correctly!!

Now onward with the oh so tedious job of inputting all my links and stuff!!! AARRGGG.... Why does this stuff always happen to me?? I'm a nice person... Really I am!!!

What's Up With This??

What's up with my blog?? This evening out of no where it decided to get all messed up.... Do you see it? The text has gotten all big and the lines separating my post are going through my side bar when they use to not.... And if you scroll down earlier post actually go all the way through the sidebar!!!! HELP!! Does any one know what's wrong with it and how to fix it????? Anyone???

Shift Change........

Chad switched shifts with the other manager starting today. So instead of working the 8-8 shift he's now doing the 11-11. Makes for a really long day. Plus I've ran into a bit of a predicament with how to make dinner. I used to make it and have it ready at eight when he got home..... Now though, 11's awfully late for me to wait and eat, but I find it very depressing to cook a meal just to then sit down and eat alone. And I'm the type that if its just me I won't bother, I just don't eat. But I know I HAVE to eat I don't want bad habits to come back.... But what does one make just for one self???

Any Suggestions??

The "Girl" Friend Breakup.........

When something happens and you no longer get along with or want to be as close as you once were with a friend or a family member or what have you.... How do you get you stuff back???

Even though its not with a boyfriend it's not much different from a breakup. Do you just let it go and deem the things they have that you lent them a loss, never to be seen again and replace the ones you still need? Because that could get pricey...... But then confronting them and asking them for your stuff could make for a fight or dare I say, "obsessing stress", you know where you can't stop thinking about what happened and what was said and if it was all just in your head and did you stand up for yourself like you believe, or again dare I say, was it all just created "Drama"?? I guess you go with what you feel is true and what you know in your heart. But you still have items invested in that relationship that the other one has, and you would like to have back!! So what's the best way to get them back? Or should you just forget it??

And what if before the relationship went sour, you had mentioned, several times, that you needed a particular item you had let them barrow back. And it was never returned and now the relationship is sour or no longer exist..... What's the social etiquette on such things? Should you really be out of a relationship and your things and even money, just for the sake of not wanting to create any more drama???

Its hard enough ending a friendship or family tie, especially one that's been there for years..... Should you continue to add to the angst and stress? It makes me wonder......

Are breakups with a boyfriend less complicated and stressful than breakups with a friend??

I can personally say that I stress more about things said and things done with my "girlfriends" then I ever have with a boyfriend, or now my husband. Is that just because we're women and ***GASP*** more emotional and dramatic especially with each other??

So the bottom line question here? How do you or should you..... Get your stuff back?

Don't waste your money........


Inspired by kimmyk, I felt it my duty to also let you know about a product as so you do not waste your hard earned money!! KY Warming lubricant is pointless..... Personally I didn't notice any "warming"...... Here's my thought on this...... I'm already "warm" so you should of made this have a "cooling" sensation!! The contrast in temps, I feel, would serve for a better experience. Of course the creators of this product never bothered to consult me first!!!

Bottom Line: Don't waste your money expecting great things. Though we sure did have fun "testing" the product!!!

The Big Broken Toe Debacle.....


Well we are back from the othopedic's office..... I should of known that when they called us back and put us in a big room with beds, instead of a single room, and the door was labeled "cast room", that it probably wasn't a good sign!!! My poor little dude has a cast on he's leg!!!! He didn't even make it to two without a broken bone and a cast!!! This does not bode well for the rest of he's childhood!! (sigh) aaa boys......... However I must say he looks pretty damn cute with he's green cast!! And he was such a big boy getting it on!! We go back in three weeks and they're take more x-rays and determine if he has to wear it a little longer yet or if that was long enough.... Which means the poor little guy will have it on for he's birthday party!!! So much for the pool I got them for their present.... We'll have to decorate a trash bag to put over he's cast so he can still go swimming!!!

So that's the rest of the story on "The Big Broken Toe Debacle".......So now you know.............

A Little Footsie...........


So I got my camera to work one last time on the way home from Pittsburgh.... Just my luck I couldn't get it to come on with low batteries when I was talking to Tiffany Arbuckle Lee---(Plumb)..... But once on the turnpike, I get one more pic out of it!! So For this week's HNT, we'll play a little footsie!!!! (hey it was easy and I've had a busy week!!.... Give me a break!)

This morning is the Orthopedic appointment for Carter's toe...... I'll let ya know what happens later..... More to come in the "Big Broken Toe Debacle"........
