Morning Routin


Brian is kicking and bouncing while I blow dry my hair











He now needs more attention.... He gets the duck blanky










He is starting to get sleepy. He rubs his eyes.











Asleep with the Fergie, who is feeling like she is back in the pack.

Signs of Spring


I'm so happy to report that we had a huge thaw. Now we have the first, uh,---thing of the bulb nature coming up! I'm feeling Daffodils. Smiles!

the Beatles Love


I have to go back in time to give my critic of The Beatles Love. I know that my trip to Las Vegas is now redundant so please forgive me. I will never quiz you about my blog so don't feel like you must read on. I just have to leave a mark for my own memory. 
Love is a Cirque Du Soleil production that is put on in a custum built theater at the Mirage. It is a stimulus combination of acrobatics, dance and visual effects, accompanied by a rock 'n' roll remix of the Beatles music. I would recomend anyone to go see love, especially those who love the Beatles. I now love them more then ever. Totally awesome!


Now the real reason I blog this critic, is because that nights events were too funny to forget. We had to hire a bbsitter for the evening so that Brent and I could go with John and Lenore to dinner and the show. Like always my anxiety was high waiting for the unknown bbsitter to arrive. "Who will it be?" I now have a protype to expect in Vegas, and you can all take notes! I am truly sorry that I don't have a picture of this woman. I'm thinking ex dancing girl from now on!
I answer the door and there is a woman that is in her late 60s and slightly over weight. Let me just say that all the excess weight was in her bosoms! I think her breasts hung to at least her waist! The first thing she says looking right past me to little Brent who's eyes are bulging, is "Do you like balloons?" Her voice is that of a smokers! I'm in shock. She bursts past me with a huge bag of what I don't know, but she says"balloons" so maybe that. I'm sniffing but no smoke aroma! She did good that way. Either she has quit or has special bbsiting clothes. She then says in
that raspy voice "My name is Sandi like in sponge bob". I nod and smile. As most of you know I have a nervous laugh that happenes at the worst times. My laugh or maybe just a giggle is starting now. She, I'm sure, is a nice lady and knows how nervous parents are about leaving their kids with strangers. So she starts pulling out all of her IDs from the big bag. She gives Brent her drivers license, her health card, and her gaming license! She insists that we take them with us. She is pulling out refrences and phone numbers for us to call. Before we leave she is chasing Brent out on the balcony and had at least 3 balloons blown up. I guess her lungs aren't too damaged. She is also pulling stickers out of the big bag to put on the balloons. We have to leave sense we have a date. In the hall I am now seriously laughing! I then start repeating, in my best made up voice or a smoker, the sentences about the balloons and her name. I think I laughed for at least 30 mins. I am awful!
I must say that when we got back from our plans that everything was under control and that little Brent was even asleep. She told us that Brent didn't want to go to sleep and she agreed that he shouldn't sleep sense he was in Vegas. She also said that Brian needed to nurse and that she had the breasts but no milk. Brent laughed. I'm dying! I'm so glad that I was home with my boys! Good night!

Easter Fun


The McEntires had an easter party and where kind enough to invite Brent and I. I got to spy and even join the fun!




There was a sugar cookie decorating party. It was some serious com-petition. Everyone had a lot of fun.





The cookies obviously showed peoples thoughts. Brooke was feeling the need to vacation.










Lilly was feeling good and lives for dreams.





Just my own interpretation.

Vegas Weekend



Brent and I took little Brent and Brian to Vegas this past weekend. Big Brent had a little work to do. We took advantage of the situation to show little Brent around.







Of Course we took little Brent to the M&M's Store









Despite the look on his face he was thrilled to be here and to see the 3D movie






Brent did a little jig on one of those mini stages for all to enjoy!










Followed by a fabulous trip through the canals of the Venetian.

For the love of CANDY


Most everyone knows that I have a candy fetish. You can always find some sort of candy in my house. On Saturday night Jean offered a new treat during a social visit. They are so great that I had to share! They are milk chocolate covered coconut kisses. They are kind of like Mounds, but the coconut has a different texture. Plus they are bite size. PERFECT! They melt in your mouth! I had to buy my own bag, so I looked all over Town for the candy. I checked Smith's and Albertson's to no avail. I had to drive 23 miles to Super Target. It is worth it! This candy may be seasonal sense it was in the Easter section. mmmmmmmm

It doesn't end there! These are another candy Jean offered. Bless her! And Hershey's! They are like Lemon Creme...like it says on the package. ;-) Ha ha ha! I'm sure they are seasonal as well. Get them while you can. Enjoy!
