OH the Life of a SAHM!

I have a hard enough time keeping up with my own children much less, my purse, my keys, my phone and my mind.

I switched vehicles with my dad yesterday and was making the trasfer of carseats and toys and children and somehow forgot to grab my phone.

So being that the computer is my only means of communication today my husband called my sis inlaw to facebook me to tell me that I needed to get down to his work as soon as I could.

So thinking that this was an emergency I hurried and got the kids dressed and headed to town.

I get to his desk and he put a pair of rubber gloves on and hands me a small box and say follow me.

So I follow him to a great big brand new combine tractor, he climbs up a small step stool and pulls out a birds nest with a littl baby bird inside. Not the kind with no feathers or ugly pink skin. This one is almost ready to fly.

So I ask Kevin what I am suppose to do with it and what I was suppose to feed it. He tells me to chew up some bugs and spit it into her mouth. (NOT going to happen)!!

So I bring her home and put it in with the nest we found in the toung of the horse trailer and come back inside to get some cracked corn and oatmeal to see if she would eat that, and when I get back to her she had flopped her way out of the nest and gave herself to sissy as a snack.

So as a side note to Kevin, I already have too many eggs in my basket to put anything else in.

So lesson to be learned, Don't fall out of your nest when there is a hungry dog around!

The BIRTHDAY!

OH to be 4!! And oh what fun we had!

Since his sisters birthday last month Chancey has been planning his rodeo birthday party! Which I must say he did a pretty good job planning the events.

He wanted to have a bull ridding and a barrel race, only he wanted to use a REAL bull and real horses! We comprimised and had daddy make us a Bull barrel and used stick horses for the races.

He also wanted rootbeer in a bottle because that is what cowboys use. We also had fake mustaches (that were a hoot) some of the boys thought they were touture divices and wouldn't even let me come close enough to them to even let them see what it was. but the other boys LOVED them!

Applesauce!

So a few days ago was April 1st and ofcourse I taught Chancey how to play some April fools jokes, like turning his milk green and telling him it came from a martian cow.

Well when I said April Fools!!! he thought I was saying APPLESAUCE!!! so all day he would pull little silly pranks and yell APPLESAUCE to them. It was quite amuzing just hearing him yell that to everyone! I love this kid!

CHECKING IN CHECKING UP!

So it was check up day today!!! No shots just a finger prick and some fun band-aids. Chancey was a Super SQUARE today, he was 40 lbs. and 40 inches tall! and will be 4 next month. He is in the 60% for his height and weight both, and gained 4 lbs. from last year. Now if I can just get someone to say that year 4 is way better than 3, I will be a much happier mom who sleeps a little more and has less gray hair!

And as for cute little Corryn, now that she is 2 she no linger needs to be weighed on the baby scale and got to use the big scale like her brother did. She weighs 23 lbs. and was 24 inches tall. Its was too cute trying to get her height, I had to hold her feet and her head against the back of the measuring board and the lady moved the board to the top of her head, and every time the board would touch her head she would go up on her tippy toes, and just LAUGH! She thought she was just too funny. So she was only in the 3% in her weight and 20% in her height. She is just a tiny little thing, in which her little attitude has out grown her! I can already see the 2 year old syndrom has hit her and it hasn't even been 2 weeks.

Naked Pics?!?

There is a reason there is no picture with this post!

I was looking through Kevin's pictures on his phone and found some pretty primiscuous pictures on it..... of himself!!!!
I do believe he has learned his lesson to NOT take his phone into the bathroom while Chancey is waiting to get in after him. PS we have a see through shower curtian so we have more light in the bathtub. That is some funny stuff if you ask me.

a day IN the duck pond

What a BeAuTiFuL Day..... Yes I Do believe today is the perfect day to spend at the Duck Ponds! We have plenty of old bread to share with them any way! Lets go kids!!! We even stopped by Aunt Kassi's work to pick up the Camera, I even did Cory's hair for the photo occasion, But Aunt Kassi had to stay home sick today, Hope she feels better soon:( No camera thats ok!

LOOK at all these hungry duck, they are nearly attacking us for not feeding them fast enough. OK its getting a little scary now because we are running out of bread and they are still hungry, Lets go play on the playgound so they don't eat us for lunch...... Oh look mom there is another pond lets go see if there are any turtle in the water, ok lets go! Don't get to close Corryn you might fall in, let mom just hold on the the back of your skirt while you look in the water. So as I was bending over holding on to Corryn so SHE doesn't fall in, Chancey takes this opportunity to give my bum a little push to know me off balance and YEP in I go...... Don't worry I was just in up to my knees, and even managed to keep Corryn dry! As I looked back at Chancey he had that scared look in his eye like he was going to get a spanking and then just busted out laughing, Laughing so hard he had to sit down!

So now we are home all dried off and Chancey wants to know if we can go get an icecream from the freeze! I think that is a good idea!!

The Short Bus

I know that just about every post is about Chancey but some of the things he is comming up with lately are just CRACKING me up. Like this morning while I was brushing my teeth, he comes in to the bathroom and tells me, Mom I can't wait to ride that little bus to school someday. He then goes on to say that he never wants to ride the big bus to school just the little bus because that is the bus all the cowboys ride, like Britt and Buster and Nate use to ride that bus and so did daddy. I am so glad I had the tooth brush in my mouth to keep me from laughing.

Or when he tripped and spilled the popcorn (or porncorn which he calls it) he mumbles Damn it under his breath, and as I get on to him he tells me thats not what he said, he says he said Damage, which in NOT a bad word just ask daddy!

Frogs in February??

Chancey: Mom are those the clouds that are falling from the sky?
Mom: No buddy thats fog......
Chancey: Pondering........... still thinkings about it.......
we get out of the car and start walking up to the sitters house, I look back to the car where Chancey is still standing by the door.
Mom: C'mon bud lets come inside.
Chancey: I'm just waiting for the frogs mom.
Mom: what frogs?
Chancey: You said it was froggy outside, and I just want to catch one!

What an imagination. I wish I could still think like that sometimes!

JESUS WANTS ME FOR A SUNBEAM

Here is to 2011 I can't believe my little boy is a Sunbeam! After sacrament yesterday I walked him down to the Primary room where he go to sit on the very front row and next to one of his best friends Wyatt Allred. I had the " NO wrestling and NO running" talk with him and gave him a hug and walked away. As I got to the door and looked back he was still folding his arms and talking quietly to Wyatt, while all the other sunbeams were not wanting to even come into the primary room!!! I am so proud of him, and a little sad that he is growing so fast.

I would put his Sunbeam picture up but I can't figure out how to get the pictures from my new camera to the computer!
