Okay well first of all, I have the best husband. I've been stuck inside the house most of the week because Isaiah hasn't felt well and I've had lots of stuff to do. He came home the other night and I was in tears.. he gave me a foot rub and then the next morning called me and said I was a new proud owner of two tickets to Thriller. He arranged babysitters for me and called a few of my friends to see if they wanted to go... I ended up having my sister go with me.. We had so much fun! I don't think I have been that entertained in such a long time. All my dance buddies know exactly what I mean when I say that.. it was SUCH an amazing night. I was so impressed with EVERY routine and performance. Thanks Jake.. you can tell how much I appreciate it:)
Also here are a few pictures of my kids the other day at "Halloween Day" for Isaiah's preschool.

Sunday -
Jake's family came in for a very short time and we enjoyed every minute of it. Yes my hair is dark now! I told Jake's family I had to die my hair so I could finally "fit" into the family!

Ewwwwww
I DESPISE grasshoppers and spiders. Yes that is a picture of a spider in my home... Look at that shadow behind it? Uhhh. And there is something really eerie about grasshoppers.. I hate walking and having a grasshopper somehow get on you... I hate the fact that they can be so far away from you and you have no idea how far they can jump.. next thing you know, there have jumped on you in a blink of an eye. I am petrified.

Field Trip
Whoever thought it would be time for me to be one of the mom's that go on a field trip with their son? I can't believe I have a kid that old!! Anyway, here is Isaiah at his first field trip with his class... it was so much fun to see him interact with everyone in his class and his teachers. They have to have SO much patience to try to teach these crazy kids. It was fun to see the kids Isaiah has talked so much about.. even his girlfriends.. yes, plural.

Halloween Birthday!
Today was a birthday party for my friend Amber's little girl, Olivia. It was a dress up Halloween birthday party. Isaiah was so excited. We were driving up to the party and I was watching him the rearview mirror, flexing with his Batman costume on. He said, "Mom, everyone there is going to think I am the real Batman." He was so sweet to me all day. Out of the blue he said, "Your voice is beautiful mom." Then later he said, "I lub boo berry much." He "can" be my little sweetheart:) Amber always has fun parties for the kids.. We always look forward to attending.

Busy busy busy..
K so I realize it has been a while since I posted.. well for me anyways. I usually post like once every day:) ha. So I actually have had a life this week and have been busy.. My kids keep me terribly busy.. along with trying to lose weight, and also deciding to sell these bows that I make .. have kept me going, going, going. I am so scatter brained and feel so unorganized!! Anyway.. I will get back to posting shortly, as if any of you care:)
Anyway if I haven't told any of you... the website for the bows is: www.bippityboppitybows.blogspot.com .
Yes I know I said I wasn't crafty and I still stick by that, HOWEVER.. isn't it so IMPORTANT that our little girls look cute? I had to find the best of both worlds and save money and also make sure London is always looking like the little princess she is. So you do what you gotta do! As Jake would say... I'm becoming quite the little hustler. So if you guys know anyone that would be interested.. send em my way. My sister is having a huge boutique on the 23rd if anyone is interested in coming.. I'll sell some bows there along with tons of other fun stuff that all women would like. I'll post the flyer!

My ears are ringing!
Everyone that meets London thinks she is super shy and quiet.. but the minute she gets home and no one else is around this is what goes on...

Cutest sick baby..
My beautiful baby girl has been sick off and on for a few weeks... I hate to see her miserable and it exhausts me. All those mom's out there know exactly what I am saying when you have a sick child! But hey... she is still cute to look at:)

My boys camping..
It's funny how I used to envision Jake taking Isaiah for a "boys" night, while I was at home with our little girl... and now he is finally at that age. Isaiah is enjoying every minute that Jake is home.. they do boy things together.. like watch Star Wars, play sports outside, watch football, put together Isaiah's train tracks, etc... While London and I do our pedicures.. I love it. Here is a few pictures of Isaiah and Jake camping with our friends.. And the cutest detail of it all was when Isaiah walked in from camping that morning, he still had ketchup and mustard dried into his face from cheek to cheek. I figured with no mommy around to clean him up, that's how it was going to be..
Poor Aaron had no space because Jake and Isaiah took the whole tent up with their air mattress. Soo funny.
(Tommy... who doesn't bring a sleeping bag when you go camping? ha ha)
