Davy Jones Locker

We are in the mall today when we walk by an empty store front with the gate down.

E: Mom look that is a jail ... No wait it is Davy Jones Locker.
M: Who knew that Davy Jones Locker was in our mall.

Beware the next time you are at the mall;)

And one more thing that Elijah keeps saying and I want to remember. Ada Liz is a non-traditional crawler, but every once and awhile she does traditional crawling and Elijah pipes up "Look Mom she is crawling like a real baby!" To which I have to say "SHE IS A REAL BABY!!!" ;)

Tuesday

It is 7 am and both kids are sleeping. One from last night and one (Ada Liz) down for her first nap of the day. Yes that is right she was up at 5:30!!!

It is cold here and I started pulling out all my winter stuff, long pants and shirts. I am sorry to see summer leave. I love fall and will get into the swing of things soon, but for right now I am morning the loss of summer.


Well Elijah is up so I must go.

Super Woman or Just Plain Crazy?

Here is a list of things I did today:
  • 1 handmade bag
  • 1 shower
  • 2 baths ( kids)
  • 3 breakfasts
  • 1 Weight Watchers meeting (did not stay)
  • 1 ride for friend to get to and from WW meeting
  • 1 birthday party (10:30 -2)
  • 1 cleanish house
  • 2 loads of laundry folded (it has been sitting there for a couple of days now;)
Now it is 3:30 and I am going to lay down and read (Oh I forgot to say that I have 2 sleeping kids!!!!)

Birthday Gift

I woke up at 5 today, so I decided to make a bag for a birthday party that we are going to today. I know I could have waited a little longer to make it even closer;) I did buy a gift to give to this little girl, but wanted to make her a bag and ran out of time, so when I could not sleep I got up and did it. I think it came out cute. (You maybe seeing some of these on in my etsy site when I get it up and running.)




Cute yes?

First Day of School

Today was Elijah's first day at his new school. When I told him today was a school day he cried and then thought about it and said "Oh wait I am going to my new school!!" Then he was happy.



After school we went out to lunch. The kids love to butt heads and they think it is SOOOO funny, I do not but who am I to say no. (Oh right I am the mom;)



Quick story. On the way to school today Elijah was talking up a storm (like always) and I was ..... cranky not in the mood to talk all the way there. Here are just a couple of the things we talked about.

E: Mommy I just saw a bunch of bikes. (this was a nano second after another story just ended... something about cranes I think)
Z: Yeah (not happy) ... I mean that is nice. There are a lot of bikes on campus
E: Back there not on campus.
Z: That was still campus, this is a big campus.
E: Yeah it is the biggest in the world.
Z: Not the biggest.
E: The world is just so big.
Z: Yes it is.
E: Why can't we walk to see my cousin?
Z: Because he lives to far away. We could walk, but it would take a long time.
E: Cool lets walk.
Z: No, because it would take way to long.... maybe a year.
E: Cool lets walk.
Z: (OK I am not getting through to him... let me try another way to explain it) You know how you are 4 1/2 now?
E: Yes
Z: Well if we walked you would be 5 1/2 before we got there. (there that should work).
E: Cool I want to be 5 1/2! Lets walk!
Z: How about you talk to your sister for awhile. (boy it was to early for anymore talking;)
