Thoughts from a big spaz who has lots to spaz about.

I think I will post some of my favorite songs here on this site.

One of my current favorites at the moment is Jasos Mraz's I'm Yours... Perfect for a weekend drive or lying on the beach.

I just remembered another thing Tyler said to me this morning. He said that he wanted to get a tatoo. I said, "Oh. What picture would you get?" And he answerd matter of factly, "Thomas the Train." cute.

Tyler says the cutest things all day long. Usually, I laugh and tell myself to remember so I could post it, and of course, I always forget! Anyways, here is one thing he said today.

We were at Costco and they were giving out samples of cinnamon buns. He touched it and then said it disgust, "Mommy, they put glue all over this bread!" I asked him why he said that and he replied that it was all sticky!

Kids are too cute...

One thing I learned from raising boys.

In the early stages of toilet training Tyler, I was teaching Tyler to dab the end of his pee pee with a small piece of toilet paper after he went pee pee. Jason saw me and asked what the heck I was doing and told me that was unnessasary. I had no idea that boys just swing their penis like a lasso or tap it up and down to get the last bits of pee off their thing and just put on their underwear back on! They have a pee pee "hole." Girls have pee pee holes. How come they don't wipe? I just had no idea! haha. Can you picture Tyler dabbing the end of his pee pee with toilet paper the rest of his life? haha...now I think it is funny!

Thanksgiving is next week and I'm stressing out! Jason's family will be coming to our house. I have an idea of what I want at the table, but I keep going back and forth- should I cook or order the whole dinner? It's so easy to just order the whole meal, but there is something special about cooking the whole thing too. It says, "Yes, I made this for y'all with love. It took forever but that is how much I love you." It's so overwhelming to cook Thanksgiving dinner because there is so much to do for one friggin' meal! Let's say you're making a full on dinner at home...now, how the heck are you going to time everything to be perfectly warm and ready when the turkey is ready? And with one oven, how in the world do you get everything done?

How people cook for other people without stressing out is beyond me. Whenever I feed people, I'm ALWAYS worried that I'm going to get them sick. ALWAYS. I think, "Is this meat cooked thoroughly? Will this person have major diarhhea because of what I fed them? Will they DIE?" It's a serious problem I have and I should see a shrink about it one day.

This is how we went swimming at the community pool this summer. Our mom gets a kick out of dressing us the same.

Here's a video that Felicia made of Chase a couple of weeks back when she spent some time with him. Thanks Felicia for making this! We are so lucky to have you in our lives!

It is entitled, "Chubby Baby Eating Mandarin Oranges."

Fibs I have said to my husband.

When I buy something I don't really need, " Isn't Claudia the best sister? She knew exactly what I wanted and got it for me!"

When I cook up heat up dinner that I assembled at Dream Dinners, I say, "Do you like my new recipe?"

When I am sick and tired of Jason putting the trash back in DAYS after trash day, I say, "Someone from the association came by today. They are not happy that we leave our trashcan out so long. Next time, they are going to fine us."

Actually, I have confessed all my fibs to Jason. I am a really bad liar.

Some pics that were uploaded from Jason'a camera.


The boys got their Christmas present a tad bit early this year!


Thomas and Thomas at a Halloween party.


Doesn't Chase look like he is really absorbed in his book? :)


Jason made these pumpkins with the boys.


Tyler's first pinata. Notice the tape on the pinata? The pinata was opened but the hostess put it back together to give more kids a chance to hit it. Thought that was funny!


Mommy and Chase this morning.


Chase.


Halloween night. Thomas the Train and Little Ninja!


Smiling Chase.


Looking at the loot after trick or treating.


When we were at this one Halloween Party, there was this big boy with a wedgie the whole time. Jason and I kept laughing at him the whole time we were there, but I had no idea Jason took a picture of him! How sad!

One of Jason's favorite things to do? Watch sports on TV. He loves it, and, seriously, I just don't get it. I HATE sports. Maybe hate is a strong word, but I really can't stand it. I can't even stand to waste my time and go to any sporting events. It's completely torturous for me. I don't get it. I don't get the rules. I don't get the hype. I don't get people cheering for people they don't know. I don't get people HURTING themselves to make a point. Obviously, I am not athletic whatsoever. I remember in high school, when we played sports, I didn't care if my team didn't win, I just didn't want to get hurt! Volleyball coming towards my face. I'll just run away from it! You want this basketball? Go ahead! Take it. Just don't touch me! I just don't care to win! I'm a pretty uncompetitive person to begin with, but with sports...forget about it! I just don't care!

When I go to a sporting event, whatever sport it may be, my mind starts to wander, "Ooh, that cheerleader has a cute haircut. Wonder where she gets it done. Any celebrities in the crowd tonight? Oh, there's Jack Nicholson. Hey, there's Frank Munez on the big screen. Wow. He has really bad skin...for an actor. What time is it? What quarter is it? I can't wait to go home and sleep. Please God, don't let this game be a tie because I can't bear even 10 more minutes of this hideous sport. What am I doing tomorrow? Market? What's on my list of things that I need? Why is everyone suddenly screaming? Did something just happen? Did someone make a point? Oh, who cares? Someone shoot me! I want to go hhhhoooommmmmeeeee!!!"

I know some of you are thinking, "What's wrong with you, woman?" I'm sorry!! I can't help it. Everyone's different!

Hello. Hello. Not much going on at home. Jason went to New Mexico for a couple of days so I'm here alone with the boys. Claudia, David, and Katie are in Hawaii for a little R&R. Today, I tried calling my sister a couple of times and it went straight to her voicemail and I got really sad! I'm so used to calling her for anything and everything all throughout the day....for cooking advise to venting about this and that, so it made me sad that she wasn't answering her phone for the longest time. I don't know what I would do without Claudia in my life! I would seriously be a mess! (Claudia, I hope you guys are having fun!)

Hello! This Friday was Halloween. Sorry, no camera. No pictures. Oh where, oh where is my charger? Wretched charger! Or should I say Wretched mind!

When Jason saw Tyler dressed up in his Thomas the Train costume, he asked me why Tyler couldn't wear the train costume from last year. Well, I told him, because that costume was JAMES the train and this year, he is THOMAS the train. Jason, of course, then asked me what the difference was and said that a train is a train. OH MEN! Then, I told Jason that even though that may be the case, that I didn't want Tyler to wear the same costume two years in a row. Then Jason preceded to tell me this sob story of how he went trick or treating in a garbage bag each year. A what?! I asked him! What are you suppose to be? A California raisin? (I recall that being a costume in the 80's.) He paused and said, well, I don't know. I think I was just a garbage bag. Oh man. I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Ok... Let's all laugh!
