We had a little dinner on Sunday for my moms birthday.

We had a baked potato bar.

We had ice cream cupcakes.

We played some Wii.

The little ones watched.

This little one thought he was playing.

He also posed for me. Thanks buddy.

Rainbow

The weather lately has been very rainy, but at the same time, very sunny. This is the kind of rainy weather I like!

I have been taking it easy the past few days, I am still feeling yucky. The rain is so fitting when you are sick! No reason at all to get out of bed :)

Here is a rainbow we saw last night. Love it!

Dog Sittin'

We sure have a full house this weekend. We are watching my mother-n-laws chocolate lab, who although loves to howl and bark is the sweetest big dog I have ever encountered. I usually cant tolerate large dogs, mainly because I feel like they get in the way, but after watching him I may have changed my mind. Chris also adores him!

This is a friends Boston Terrier who we also have for a few days.

When I was a little girl we had a Boston named Jasper who attacked me one day while chewing on Big League bubble gum. I now have two scars on my mouth, but no hard feelings toward the breed :) This little guy is so well behaved!

Who needs a dog sitter?? We should run a business!

sicky.

For the past 2 weeks I have been feeling like I have a cold. My throat has been so sore I can barely swallow. At night it swells and I feel like I am choking. I finally felt so bad I decided to go to the doctor. We switched insurance so as of now I don't have a doctor, so I just went to urgent care.
I sat at urgent care for a total of 2 hours in the midst of sick, screaming children and their oblivious parents. I finally got seen and tested for strep throat. It was negative, which I was happy for but if it was positive I at least would've had a diagnosis, right? Do you ever feel like if you go to the doctor and Aren't sick, then it was a waste? I do.

The doctor then saw me and noticed that I am not taking birth control and asked if there was a chance I could be pregnant. Me, thinking, well if we aren't using protection then there's always a chance, said yes. Mistake. She lectured me for a while about how I need to be on vitamins and how I can't take any meds if I could be prego (except tylenol). So she wouldn't prescribe me anything, let alone take a urine sample. Very, very strange. I wish I never would've said 'yes' so I would be on my way to feeling better! This is the pits!

My husband.

I love this man. Seriously sometimes I think I am crazy obsessive over him and that I actually am crazy...but I think that's ok. He is my husband after all, I can love him as much as I want!!

Here are 10 reasons why:

1. He works so hard. He wouldn't be able to provide like he does if he didn't have such great work ethic and drive.
2. He never complains. He gets up very early and comes home late, lately working 6 12 hour shifts a week.....and he never complains about it.
3. He loves to laugh and make me laugh.
4. He adores our two pups. I think its so sweet how much he loves our dogs.
5. He loves his family and really would do anything for them.
6. He is so handy and I love a man that can fix something!
7. He is super smart and wears a suit to work, which is very sexy.
8. He is very honest and will always tell the truth, but will sugar coat when needed (I am sensitive and need sugar coated honesty :))
9. He would do anything for me. He adores me. It melts my heart.
10. Lastly, I love him because he loves the Lord.

I could go on.... but I will stop being mushy now!

What I love

So.....its almost Valentines and up until Valentines day I want to share a few things that have my heart.

Todays theme is TV Shows. There are those people who say "oh, I dont watch tv."

Well you're lame. For real, who doesn't watch tv??? I know I do. And I love it. And I love DVR.

So heres the television shows that I frequent (this season):

The Bachelor. This is the first season that I have ever watched. I never got into it before, but all the girls at work talk about it...so I had to watch it. Now I can be apart of the conversation :) :)

The Real Housewives of Orange County. LOVE THEM! My favorite so far is New Jersey, I cant wait for it to return.
Teen Mom. Such a funny yet sad show.

Of course there is the regulars : The Office, Greys, American Idol, Chuck, 24...

I love me some tv, don't you? What are your shows??

SuperBowl Sunday Funday!

Today is the battle of the E! Stars! My favorite channel!

I am not thinking of this Superbowl as the Colts vs the Saints, its definitely Kendra vs Kim (since you know, their men play for those teams). We all know I am not a big sports gal...but throw celeb gossip in and I am game :)

I hope that Kendras man wins. They are such an adorable couple. They are so in love on that show of theirs....its kinda sickening but I love it!

go Kendra, go Kendra...

The Road

I just finished this book today. It was so good I never wanted to put it down. Its a story about a father and son surviving in a post-apocalypse world. It was so believable, I really think that is how the world will be after the apocalypse, or after the rapture, and man don't want to be around. It really puts things in perspective.

Steals & Deals

Today I ventured to Last Chance in Phoenix for some shopping. Man I love that store. I love digging for clothes and bargain hunting!

I got this cute studded v-neck.....

a scarf, headband, earrings....

white jean cutoff shorts, blue jean cutoff short, white athletic shorts..

and these gold flowery Steve Madden sandals ( I was eyeing them all last season)

Total: $50!!!

I think thats good :)
