Random Fill in the Blank :)



Today is a laundry kind of day.
Our weather is absolutely beautiful (Yes, it has snowed, we have a couple inches, but the skies are bright blue and the mountains are gorgeous when they are covered in snow) this morning.
My favorite time of day is when Sean gets home from work. And I do love when my kids nap, because I can get some reading/Bible study done. :)
The last thing I do before I go to bed at night is say Siara's bedtime prayers with her, pray myself. And give smoochies to my babies(including the hubby). Sometimes read. 
I wish that I could go to JoAnn's and have an unlimited budget, I have so many projects I want to do. :P
The typical morning looks like a  goodmorning smooch the kids (or kid, who ever wakes up first) get some milk and breakfast going, feed my dog(he has megaesophagus so I have to put him in a special box, where he eats and has to sit there for an hour, otherwise he will regurgitate/puke up his food), and make some coffee. Usually let the kids watch some cartoons while I catch up on my internet reading. :)
I should have done laundry yesterday. :P

I had to share this video of the kids. Silas playing with his cars, minding his own business, and then Sister see's me recording him and had to come be a part of the show. :P

Pictures and Things

Well, yesterday we got 5.4 minutes of sunshine, so Shayna and I went out and I snapped some pictures of her adorable boys. <3 I think Im going to post a mothers day special on my facebook page. I just have to do it during April, since we leave for Alaska May 12th! :D Im so excited.




I really cant get over how much Silas is talking. I need to take a video and share it. He is 22 months old, and will say to me, 'Mommy, juice please get it' My favorite thing he says is Rootbeer Float..which comes out 'Eeetbeer Sh-oat' Like, Boat with a SH. Cracks me up everytime. He is just growing too fast. :( Sean bought him some big boy undies and he wore them Saturday and went pee in the potty 5 times...Im not ready to let go of my baby. :( Haha, but, on that note.. I am excited to announce that Sean has said yes, he does want to add one more to his clan. As he put it, he is such a silly guy. I dont know what made him finalize his decision(i told him there is no rush, but I wanted him to be sure in his decision of course since he is the workin' man), but wondered if Siara helped him on Friday night when she was talking to him about if she had a baby sister they would have to share a room. And she would share everything with her, except her princess bicycle and she would only change pee diapers, not poopy ones. LOL. And we asked her, what if we had a baby boy? She says, 'Well then brother would have to share..' but the way she said it just cracked us up, like 'DUH' haha.  

This Sunday we're back to the beach to visit the grandparents and Great Grama. I just love talking to her..I have some projects I want to do while were down there..and some pictures. I saw a great idea on pinterest where the little child places their hand in their grandmothers. That would be awesome since its Siara's Great Great Grama. How BLESSED are we?!

Tonsils Are Coming Out.

Well, I have been battling them long enough, saw an awesome Dr today, and he gave me the verdict. They are comin' out. Along with my adenoids. And its gonna hurt. He said 7 days of the worst sore throat, but he thinks in the long run, I will be WAY better off. Lots of infections and irritations every year will be no more! He says, I will still get sore throats once in a while, but nothing like I have been dealing with since Jr High. Im so excited, but so nervous! I have never had any type of surgery or anything like that, just delivered two babies. I will definitly be praying a lot before hand, and would gladly welcome any others. :P

Earlier in the day though, we went out to Enumclaw and ate at The Kettle. Can we say SOOO good!!! The muffins were amazing! We had a blueberry and a Cinnamon one, both, soo good. I had a cheeseburger since it was lunch time, but I saw people eating breakfast, and boy it looks great. I will for sure go back there to try that! I loved the atmosphere. Reminded me of Eatonville, sort of. Eatonville is MUCH slower paced..and Enumclaw isnt too busy, but our restaurant(we dont have many) are full of old men drinking coffee talkin about all their old loggin stories. One of my favorite breakfasts spots closed last year due to the owner committing suicide. So, so so, sad. But just recently I saw on the window that they are planning to re-open, this makes me happy. The community loved eating there.

This weekend we are going to the St Patricks Day parade in Seattle, I have never been and Im really hoping the weather isnt too aweful. :( Siara is just getting over an infection and Silas is starting to get the icky nose. Oh the joys. Anyway, afterwards we are headed back to the inlaws, for corned beef and cabbage. Never had that either. haha. A day of firsts for me! :D Tonight, Siara and I are going to paint our fingernails green..no getting pinched for us! ;-)

A friend suggested the book, Crazy Love. to me, So I started it just the other day, it is so great. I really want Sean to read it, just for the general purpose to be uplifted! The first chapter itself changed me, thats a sure sign of a great book! I highly suggest it, and Im not even finished reading it.

Crazy Morning.

We made it to the beach. After a crazy morning of course :)
Silas was commanding my services as Mom, but I was busy at the moment, so he took it upon himself to get a snack. See picture below. So, we get that lovely mess cleaned up, and he decided to take a peak at my bible and make a few notes for me. :| I really don't mind, I write notes in my Bible anyways, and one day I will look back and smile at those scribbles. :)
Anyway, were at the coast now, car is unpacked and it is absolutely gorgeous out. Blue skies, the sun is slowly setting. Im getting the feeling its going to be a nice few days.
