Popa's Birthday

We just celebrated Popa's 60th birthday. We had a tie-dye and Hawaiian themed party! Yes I know they really don't go together but Popa loves dolphins and the oceans so we try and let him enjoy it as much as we can while living in CO. Then the tie-dye...Popa loves his tie-dye and all the grandkids think its fun to match him so we had them all wear their tie-dye shirts, yes even Goose already has one ;)


Here's Monkey and Goose watching Dino Dan while waiting for everyone to show up.
Monkey insisted that Goose sit on the couch with him but then he kept falling over on him so he wanted him off after a few minutes.


The weather was great! It wasn't super hot but it was sunny and nice.


Yep! We had to do all 60 candles! How else do you celebrate 60 years?!?!


He got them all out with one blow but then the right side re-lit without being trick candles and he had to blow them out again.


See the dolphins that are full of sugar...ya Monkey ate a dolphin and no cake! 


Enjoying some great laughs and stories of past parties and fun!


The kids enjoyed some fun outside games. 

We all really enjoyed celebrating my dad and all that he is to us! 
He is so important in our lives and I wouldn't be who I am today without him!

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...

Baby Bumpdate: Week 35

35 Weeks! That means only 5 left!!!! Holy cow!!! I think I'm starting to freak out just a little!!! How far along? 35 Weeks! Yea! How big is baby?  He's about 18 inches and just over 5 pounds. Weight gain? I gained a pound last week. Maternity Clothes?  Of course. I'm living in tanks right now because of the heat. Just wish I had more shorts to wear. Stretch Marks?  Nothing new. Just the ones from before and Monkey. Sleep? With this cold I'm not sleeping much. I'm getting a little better and able to sleep about 4 to 6 hours at night and then at nap time I'm able to get 1 or 2 more hours of sleep. However, I'm still exhausted especially because of the heat. It just drains all my energy. Even when I'm sitting in the shade under a fan. Of course it's only June so I'm not sure how this heat thing will effect me in July :/ Best Moment this Week?  Monkey kissing my belly before he went down for a nap. It was so cute. He ...

Media Monday: How it affects my child

Media is neither good or bad. Last week I talked about media in our marriage and a little bit about our family and media but today is all about Rex and media. Rex loves cartoons! Right now he happens to be watching Veggie Tales while eating lunch. This is not a normal thing at all. I can't remember the last time he was eating while watching TV. Today we had a crazy time and he asked to watch a movie and I didn't have a problem with it. Plus it's Veggie Tales.  We have a limit (during mommy in charge time) that he is only allowed to watch one movie/TV show each day and some days we don't watch anything. When daddy gets home things change and the TV is on within minutes of being home. Rex normally doesn't care that the TV is on because of our daily activities. He plays or helps me cook unless daddy is watching adult cartoons then he is more interested.  This past winter I found us watching more TV than I planned ever to let my children watch. So once it start...
