Friendly Monster

Rex has his first imaginary friend! It's adorable because he carries him every where. It's a character from a Word World that he watched yesterday. 
This is one of his favorite shows to watch and I actually love it because of all the letter and words he is exposed to. In the one he watched yesterday was about the animals going camping and telling scary stories. They get scared and break the tent. When dog goes to find the letters in the woods he meets a monster. This monster is a friendly one, like only one should be on a child's show, and ends up joining in the camping fun. 

I don't know why this one was so significant to Rex but it was. He loved it. About a half hour later he came barging into the bathroom to tell me all about the tent and the friendly monster. It reminded me yet again that as a mom I don't have any privacy in the house. He was so excited. 

We headed out to the store and then to Popa's house because Mommy needed help just getting through the night while Daddy was gone for boys night (read Not Sleeping for clarification) and Rex told Popa all about the friendly monster as we were leaving. 

Once we were driving Rex started to freak out because he couldn't find his friendly monster. I started to freak out because I didn't want to have to go back to Popa's house to 'find' him. Well, thinking quickly I told him that he was sitting in the seat next to him and it worked. Rex just said "Oh!" and was excited to have his friend with him. 

Well once we got home he had to get him out of the car and take him inside. Then he got in bed and I had to kiss Rex and the friendly monster goodnight. Well apparently I ate the friendly monster instead of giving him a kiss. Rex was laughing and laughing. I just shook my head and enjoyed his cuteness. 

The next morning he had to watch that Word World again (thank goodness for DVR's) with his friendly monster. I love watching Rex grow and learn fun new things like his imagination.

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...

Monkey's Surgery

So I finally downloaded pictures and I thought I'd share the cute pictures of my little boy after his surgery he had in April. No one should have surgery at 3 years old but poor little Monkey had to have his gallbladder removed due to his blood disorder called spherecytosis.  I had to stay in bed with him afterwards. He didn't want me to go anywhere. However, being pregnant made it so I had to use the bathroom quite often so luckily he was OK with Aunt Tiffany or Grandma holding his hand while I went. He hadn't been aloud to eat for almost 48 hours. He was starving! He ate almost the whole plate of pancakes and the nurses were shocked he could eat so much. They kept encouraging us to get him up and out of the room later in the afternoon after the surgery. So we headed out in the wagon first. He wasn't to happy about being moved and we made him walk a little bit in the room but he was glad to be out.  Granny and Great Po...
