Halloween Fun (and an explaination)

Ah, November. The month of my FAVORITE holiday. Thanksgiving is all about being kind, thankful, seeing family and eating good food, and remembering those we love. Now, I love me some Christmas time spirit, don’t get me wrong. Christmas and Thanksgiving are very nearly tied, but it’s Thanksgiving that continues to hold the number one [...]

In Arizona, this IS a necessity!

When thinking about what constitutes a “need” and what fills in the gap as a “want”, I’ve made up my mind.
I need this.
And so does my son. And my husband. That’s all.
Here’s the setup process:
Go get loads of sand from the local wash.
Level (I mean REALLY level) out the ground.
Put down a tarp.
Wait in vain [...]

Just An Update

Thought ya might like some pictures of the new one, I know I can’t get enough of looking at him (funny how that is). I realize that I’m not very good at functioning or thinking rationaly when I don’t get enough sleep – I’m a little selfish that way. Mr. B is the BEST big [...]

Homies and Hotties – Quote of The Day #9

Back on this post, we learned about homies. Coming in from playing out front and riding bicycles (I was cleaning out the garage), Mr. B said, “I’m hot.”
“Phsew! Me too.” I replied.
“I’m hot, and you’re hot…we are HOTTIES, Momma!!!”
Aw, just what I needed to hear when 9 months pregnant!!!

Infinity Words – Quote of The Day #7

While looking at videos of space and planets on You Tube and listening to popular space jargen like “light years, galaxies, universes, and black holes”, Mr. B turns to me after hearing that there are “infinity” stars in the universe and beyond.
“How much is infinity, Momma?”
“Well, can you count to ten?”
“Yesth.”
“Can you count to 100?”
“Yesth.”
“Well, [...]

A Blunder of Planitary Proportions….

While shopping in w@lmrt, I happened across a place-mat with all the solar system on it, kind of like this, but with the Sun shining and the planets rotating around it. Did I mention that Mr. B’s newest obsession is the Galaxy? Oh, and the solar system, and the universe and the planets, and stars, [...]

A Boy’s Prayer

Tonight while Mr. B and I were saying prayers before bed he said,
“And thank you for keeping Daddy safe at work, and please bless us to sleep well, and please help Momma to have the very biggest most ginormous baby boy ever in the whole world….”
AAAAAHHHH!! Talk about a birthing nightmare!!

Quote of The Day #6

So because of this episode of Blue’s Clues,
319 Blue’s Big Pajama Party
It’s a special nighttime game of Blue’s Clues to figure out what Blue wants to do tonight. As we search for clues (trying not to yawn!) we join Shovel and Pail for a game of Flash-’n’-Find and learn about the animals who are awake [...]

Quote of The Day #5

So I thought for sure I had already posted this, but even with my new-found knowledge of what I can and cannot do on this blog, I couldn’t find this particular quote my the infamous Mr. B.
I was in the kitchen making lunch when Mr. B came up and said, “Momma, when the babies come [...]

Quote Of The Day #4

Since we’ve traveled to another state (more like a different planet) for Thanksgiving, Mr. B has noticed LOTS of differences between Port Land (that’s how he says it), Oregon and Southern Arizona. His most recent question was; “Momma, why do the bridges in Port Land go over water and our bridges only go over sand?”
Oh, [...]
