Man Overboard!

So I thought that my kiddos were playing nicely on the patio while I cooked dinner.  I was a little off the mark as you can see.  What I thought was playing was dumping toys through the railings and watching them fall.  At least they understand gravity! 

Cleaner of the Year

I just love this stuff!   We have been using Nature's Miracle since we got our dog Lulu.  She is a 15lb Rat Terrier/Dachshund Mix that we rescued from Louisiana after Katrina.  I was working with FEMA doing disaster recovery work and brought home a puppy when I was done.  We tried NM after a couple doggy training accidents and it has been a household staple ever since.  It gets rid of every sort of stain and spill!

LOVE IT!  The best part is, if you have an animal or kid have a bathroom accident it ACTUALLY gets rid of the SMELL!!  So awesome.  I used some today on a stain on our van carpet that was there when we bought it and it came right out.  SWEETNESS!  Gotta love the miracle!

 *Nature's Miracle is available online or at your local pet store.  I purchase it at Petsmart.  

The Happiest Place on Earth...

Okay maybe not.  We recently made the trek down to Florida and headed to Disney.  Since we are from Florida,  we were making our 2 week trip down to visit family and we were offered a Disney trip at the end of it.  Not such a great choice.  We had a great time visiting with family and we got to relax and hang out, well worth the 2 day drive there.  Disney, not so much.  It probably didn't help that being in the middle of the first trimester I was sick as a dog and puking my brains out.  Nothing like walking around all day to make you feel great.  Bug number 1 also smashed her face, literally, on a glass dining room table 5 minutes after we arrived in our hotel.   Needless to say her trip was pretty much over then.  Both kids were super excited to meet Minnie and Mickey the next day.  At least that made up for bug #1's major injury. 

Honestly the kids were a little bit young (#1-2 1/2yrs, #2-17mo) and trying to cram in Disney at the end of a two week vacation was a little much.  Next time we are going to make a special trip just to Disney and make sure that everybody can walk on their own and I don't want to be pregnant during the trip.  All in all, a  lesson well learned. 

Up the stairs

So this is what ONE shopping trip to Costco and Trader Joe's looks like in my house.  It was 8 trips up the stairs, yes up the stairs.  We live on the second story and that means stairs folk.  It was 8 trips up the stairs with groceries and 2 trips up with bugs (one each).  The kids had fallen asleep in the car and hung out there while I unloaded.  I wish I could say that they napped really well when we got home, but they didn't it was more of a rest time than nap time.  Needless to say I got my workout in for the day!

MIA?

Okay, so I realize that I have been MIA for a bit.  Two weeks of traveling followed by no internet, our computer breaking, and no internet again have all contributed to my absence.  But NO MORE! We are a fully functioning techie family again.  Honestly I am just really grateful to have internet again and not to have to use the library or try and find free wi-fi.  Especially since it's not like I can really take the kiddos anywhere and expect them to sit while I check my email and update my blogs.  So now that I am back online, I am still way behind in postings.  Yikes.  Hopefully over the next week I will be all caught up, at least that is my goal.  We will see what happens...
