Do NOT come over here...

Unless you want your nose to burn for the next week.... it may be a bit TMI but these kiddies have been stinkin like nobody's business....I can't figure out the culprit either. Bread? Soup? Sandwich? Hot chocolate? 

None of those say stinky to me.


We had the fortunate/unfortunate timing of having our neighbors drop by for a few minutes.


Fortunate because they brought some delicious cookies which meant I no longer had to make a FHE treat. 

Unfortunate because they had to be prey to the stink that is my house right now. 
I'm sure that as they left, it was their biggest topic of discussion next to having to look at our big basket of whites sitting out in plain view (I'm only kind-of kidding).

You don't even want to know how the boys bath went. 
Let's just say that we had to drain the water and give them a shower. 

And one more thing.
I mopped the kitchen to a pristine shine today and milk has since been spilled twice on it. First time, I was calm and collected, the kind of mother I really want to be.
Second time, I think I may have looked like a monster. 

Heaven help me. 

Here's to remembering better days:

Sounds like an early case of cabin fever.

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
