Fish and Family

Fishing! Popa has been talking to Rex about fishing for months and I have taken Rex to the park and had to drag him away from other people that are fishing because he would just go and sit next to them and watch them fish instead of heading to the playground to play. Finally we were able to head out and fish. Popa went and got worms (because we read a book that said that's what fish eat) and he got his license and we headed to the lake. So here we are finally fishing and you want to know what Rex does...runs away, throws fits, wants to play, feed ducks, anything but fish. Serious kid you have been begging to fish for weeks. So we are down at the far end the area we are at feeding ducks (someone else gave us a piece of bread) when Popa caught a fish. Then he was kind of excited.

 

We went to see the fish and he did try and pick it up and touch it at first.


This is him say "fish". It looks like he is grossed out or something but he was just excited that he had a fish.


So now that we have the fish we realize that we don't have pliers or a 'line' or whatever it is called that you put the fish on and leave in the water so I have to run back to Popa's house. Good thing we were close. He did talk to another guy that was fishing by us and borrowed a line until I could get back. While Popa was gone talking the fish would lay really still and then jump up and down and go crazy and then be really still and then go crazy. One time while it was being still Rex went to get really close and it jumped and almost hit him in the face as he was bending over and it scared the daylights out of him. After that he didn't want anything to do with the fish.


So the next day Popa went and got my nephews and my niece and they went fishing again. We met them up at the lake. It was pretty cold so I planned on taking the little ones home after they played for a little bit. They didn't catch any fish but it was still fun.

Rex was a little more interested in the idea of fishing but I think it was more because Alex was there. He really likes Alex and makes sure to tell me about it when ever he is around saying, "I like Alex" after they have spent time playing together. It's super cute. So glad to have such a fun time with family fishing this weekend.

*I have more picture to post about the rest of the weekend but they are still on the camera so they will have to come later.

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...
