I'm just lazy

So the other day I posted on Facebook that it had been a while since I had signed in. A friend commented that it must be because I have a real life. My reply back was, nope, I'm just lazy. Same thing goes for my blog!
But, we are going on a little road trip this week. I know I'll take pics, it just depends on my level of energy if you'll get to see the pics! Maybe this will keep you in suspense.

Hypocrite

You know, I ususally check blogs only on the nights I work. I get a little disappointed when I see people haven't posted in a week or more. And then I think to myself, well when was the last time you posted? I honestly don't think my life is interesting and when something interesting happens I never seem to have a camera around or think to write down the cute things my kids say. Maybe this is the same problem the others are having.
Note to self: my life might not be interesting to me, but it might be to others.
Note to others: your life might not be interesting to you, but it is to me. Post something already!

Am I weird?

Aside from the obvious of course!, I was realizing today how weird I am. Let me explain. Whenever I eat a handful of something (goldfish crackers, M&M's, etc.), I have to eat them in an even number. Whenever I eat raw carrots, if the first one I bite into is really sweet, I put it aside and eat it very last (just in case the second to last carrot leaves a bitter taste in my mouth, I have the sweet carrot left to wash away the taste). When I was little if I chewed 6 times (an even # of course!) on the right side of my mouth, I had to chew 6 times on the left. So am I weird? Do you have any little quirks like this?

The coloring of the eggs

We had our FHE last night (since I work most Mondays). Being close to Easter we decided to color Easter eggs. I think Livvy and Micah had a lot of fun. Livvy was so excited to see the eggs go in white and come out a different color. Micah had fun sticking his fingers in the dye. Which of course led to a lovely spill of blue dye all over the table. We now have 12 brightly colored eggs to leave out for the Easter bunny to hide. We ended our night getting ice cream cones from Arctic Circle. Got to love the free courtesy cones! The perfect size for little hands.

In Remembrance

Last night at 7:09pm, I found out a good friend is gone. There was no word, no warning. A comforting friend, always there to cheer me up when I was down. My world is shattered. No where will I find anything to replace it. Sadly, Pudding on the Rice has closed. Once more the recession has darkened my life. I never even got to use my $5 gift certificate.

The Drama Queen

My little girl is such drama queen! Today she had an accident while taking her nap. Because of this her "special blankey" had to be put in the wash. This was very traumatic for Livvy. Even though I explained why it had to washed she would not stop crying. I let her be during the waterworks, but after about 15 minutes she was still boobing. I found her in my room, sitting on my bed, facing the dresser mirror, watching herself cry!!! How pathetic! She sat there for a little while longer, but was all smiles when I suggested we make a tent out of chairs and blankets. She is such a little goose!

(I didn't think to take a picture of her crying, so here is a cute one of her.)
