Ha Ha Ha Ha – Springing along…I’m such a “gork” (Kennedy word for Geek and Dork all mixed together<\/em>) sometimes.\u00c2\u00a0 Forgive me….just blame it on sleep depravation….I’m gonna go on and on and on about the sleep depravation again so I know you’ll want to keep reading won’t you..<\/p>\n

NOT!\u00c2\u00a0 Just joking!\u00c2\u00a0 Hey, did I lose some of you?\u00c2\u00a0 Did you think I was serious?\u00c2\u00a0 I guess I’ve complained about it so much and it’s kind of too fresh to be joked about, hey????….sorry about that.<\/p>\n

Nope, not gonna talk about it at all.<\/p>\n

Instead……don’t you wish you had a little boy that was a cute as this little guy is……..couldn’t you just “eat him up”?\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>He is almost ALWAYS this happy.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s very rare that he’s not smiling and even rarer that he’s crying.\u00c2\u00a0 I just LOVE him so much.Topic Change……\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

I also dyed my hair using a natural hair dye.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s called Herbatint<\/a> and it’s amazing.\u00c2\u00a0 It is more expensive than just buying a color from the store.\u00c2\u00a0 It was just under $30 for the box, but I was pleasantly amazed at how it didn’t smell like I was frying my hair or burning brain cells from the fumes.\u00c2\u00a0 We’ve been trying to rid our house of the Detergant SLS<\/a> because it’s been linked to eczema<\/a> and Josiah does typically have a flare up when he comes in contact with it…..and it’s in EVERYTHING, and it a known irritant……if that’s the case, then why put it in all the freakin’ baby soaps……it’s ridiculous.\u00c2\u00a0 Anyway, this dye doesn’t have SLS and it works so far.<\/p>\n

Anyway – I went Black…it seems that if I go really dark, that by the time the dye lightens and wears off slightly that it’s pretty close to my natural color…..which is a nasty sorta mousy brown color……enough about that…..here’s me.\u00c2\u00a0 Excuse the frizzies…I’d do a re-take, but I just don’t care that much – you can see the color and realize that\u00c2\u00a0I don’t have perfect hair, and that I really dont’ care……get a little chuckle outta the “halo”….yah, that’s it…..it’s my halo…I’m an angel…ha ha ha!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
<\/center>
<\/center>In other news….my kids are playing SOOOOOO Nicely most of the time <\/strike>and here’s a shot to prove it…..I’m not gonna tell you how we staged this shot just so you’d think that we were such a nice family who calmly and quietly plays games together….’cause we didn’t and even if we did….I wouldn’t tell you about it….I’d just go on about my business and be all cool about it….now that I’ve blathered on and on – you have no idea whether I’m telling the truth or not, so just enjoy this pic of the 3 older darlings playing nicely together….as this is a rare treat.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>Nothing like a sweet game of pick-up sticks.<\/p>\n

Now, for some really amazing news…..you should see Josiah crawling…okay…it’s a bit weird, and none of my other kids did this…….He Army Crawls.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s darling, but strange…just get up on your hands and knees already, son!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
<\/center>Isn’t he just DARLING?\u00c2\u00a0 See, flat on his stomach…..weird.And here he is coming to get you….<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
<\/center>Regardless of how strange his little crawl is…..HE IS FREAKIN’ FAST.And so now…….<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center>
<\/center>This is the view coming up our stairs.\u00c2\u00a0 Yup.\u00c2\u00a0 We are now officially gated, and it makes life WAY easier ’cause I can just put him down and let him go….mind you with 3 older kids…there is a whole lotta yelling and screaming<\/strike> gently reminding to “please remember to shut the gate EVERY SINGLE FREAKIN’ time you come in or out<\/strong><\/em>” ’cause I’m nice like that.\u00c2\u00a0I’m also into the “vaccumming the carpets 40 times a day” stage\u00c2\u00a0because apparently my older children are\u00c2\u00a0SLOBS and the baby is “exploring” everying by putting every little piece of anything and everything\u00c2\u00a0into his mouth.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s so much fun.<\/p>\n

Today is Day 3 of\u00c2\u00a0Spring\u00c2\u00a0Break but it’s also Wacky Wednesday.\u00c2\u00a0 Named because……beacause……well, because\u00c2\u00a0both words start with a W…..We decided that it’s hard for Jon to be\u00c2\u00a0working\u00c2\u00a0from home and for the kids to not understand how come he’s around but not available….sooooooo…….he’s working Mon and Tues and Thur and Fri from 7am to 5pm and we are tkaing Weds off.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s nice that we can do this.\u00c2\u00a0 One of the perks of working for your self at home, but it’s also a Loooooooog day when you’re working for 10 hours straight.\u00c2\u00a0 So far so good and we’re headed off to see a movie with the kids today.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

I think we’re going to see “Horton hears a Who”.\u00c2\u00a0 It should be fun, and then we’re going to have dinner with my parents. So, a nice day that’s not too crazy busy, but fun none the less…..\u00c2\u00a0 How’s your Spring Break coming along?\u00c2\u00a0 if you have one?\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
