Ok had to add this one, the company Adam interviewed with in Maine sent home a LLBean Tote and Boat for me...Well I added it to the collection and thought it was pretty funny... I guess it is true I am a bag lady... I won't tell you I have 5 more elsewhere in the house....and honestly would order another one Right now If I could! haha
Friday, I put Phoebe down for her nap and was going to go take a shower. I told Luke that I was going to do this and to watch his show and stay put...But I did have a feeling he was going to try to go outside I guess I should have listened...Anyway I closed and locked the screen door and the inside door... and the kitchen door. Half way through my shower I had the feeling Luke is gone...I didn't listen. I did finish quickly and put my contacts in. Opened the door the house was Silent! Luke had turned off the TV. I ran downstairs...He was not on the couch. The doors were all open. I ran up and got dressed super fast and looked out my windows to see if I could see Luke from there... Nothing. I go out and at first I thought all Luke's bikes were here, so I went and figured he was in the garage... No, but as I look back at the bikes I realize that Luke's new bike was gone. Panic sets in! I talk to the neighbor she checks her yard and her next yard over... I got in the Van and drove down the cul-de-sac...I didn't see him anywhere...So I start thinking about where he would have gone, I couldn't imagine him going on the main road. But I didn't know what he would have done....I checked one more place our other neighbors backyard, No not there....My neighbor said she would drive up to the park and check there... OH I was hoping he was there... I called and called Adam over and over till he finally called me back I told him what was up and he told me to call the police....OK... So I called 911
Adam came home shortly afterward and thanked the Police for their help...And I checked my phone yesterday when I took the picture to see how long I had talked to them, It was about 5 minutes. So the Good news is that in about 4 minutes the police will be at my house if I ever have to call them again... But lets just hope we don't~!
Saturday it was SUNNY, and almost 50 degrees outside so we soaked it all up, riding bikes and cleaned out and vacumed the van. Today it is foggy and rainy, 0% chance of sun... So I am sad but Thankful for the 2 lovely sunny days we had!
Made me some stinkin' cute heart garland...I think it came out totally cute, I made the lines wigglie when I sewed it instead of just straight across which I think gives it some serious personallity!
Just had to she is a ham!
Sweet Sisters they matched on Sunday! So cute!
Dad and son in their Matching hats! Luke was NOT thrilled but whatever!
And PS, today is Match day! Don't remeber what that is well last year it went a little like this for us...Can't believe it has been a year! So glad it doesn't matter this year!
Had a doc appointment today, went well. Progression is being made, so that is good. Adam is leaving again tomorrow and will be back Friday at 10pm. So fair game after that! Now I need to see if I can get Luke to stand still long enough to get a profile picture! Wish me luck.
Today I got brave and ventured down to East Aurora To the Fisher Price factory store, by myself with my two kids...Amazingly it went well...But we did get a bit confused on the way there, but found it thankfully. Then we shopped and played, the kids had a BLAST! There were not many people there which was nice and one of the reason I went early, the other was because Amy requested I get her something there for Milan, Mostly all the stuff there is cheaper than you can get it in the store, so she got a 37 dollar dollhouse for 22 dollars! YEAH! Luke loved the bat and balls, and carried that around for a while till he saw the Cars, then those were discarded and he carried Mater around for a while, (I never actually saw him put it down but it did end up disappearing somewhere) They tried everything out, and had a blast playing with all the toys they see on TV. Since I am not buying those toys it was good for them mostly Allie to get to see them and play a bit! Luke then fell in love with a dinosaur, so that got put in the cart, and then he wanted the Blue Lightning McQueen, then we finally made our screaming exit! When we came it this lady looked at us and said Well your brave... Yup I agree! But Geez point it out much?!!? So as you can tell, Luke's Christmas and Birthday shopping is done, he got the dinosaur, the car, the ball and bat (now that is brave), a Cars puzzle, and a big Magna doodle, all of which was on discount except the Dinosaur but it was still cheaper than in the stores so I got it, he love love loved it! Allie got a birthday present, a set of the rubber princess dolls, Aurora, since she didn't have that one yet. We are going to wrap it today...I think she will be surprised what do you think?
My naughty boy, knocking off all the pumpkins and laughing!
First I have to say I love my hubby, and I am so glad that on Wednesday they let him come home early! He let me have a 2 hour nap! It was Wonderful! Then he rubbed my back and it pushed on the lower part and all that pain went away! I slept well last night, and felt pretty darn good today!
Below are comparison pictures....Boy has Allie grown!
Big Momma and kids, I don't feel as big as I look, Hmm, camera angle? Probably not probably denial!
This is how the kids have been sleeping lately, together in the crib! Oy I guess I am glad they love each other but boy are they silly!
Well not much new going on here, just been keep on keeping on... Kids are good, Luke had a dr appointment last week and he is a 25 pound cutie! He is doing well, growing good. I had a dr appointment yesterday, baby is doing good, she is a feisty thing, they put the doppler thing on my belly and she had a FIT, she went Nuts kicking and flipping around. She doesn't like anything touching her or pushing on her... which means when my bladder gets 2 drops in it WATCH OUT! She gets mad! But all is well... Adam is doing well as you see below interview are going to be starting in a few weeks, Buffalo and Toledo are in Oct., my birthday is coming up, Halloween, then the maddness really begins in November! I am tired thinking about it... but I got one project done! I will post pictures of it later since it is a present...Well that is all for now! It is rainy and cold here, so it is lovely typical Buffalo weather! I am dreading winter!
Yup they love each other!
Can I tell you how much I love LOVE fall! I feel like i can actually cook in the fall, I want pumpkins around and yummy smells in the air... Hopefully it will last a long time this year and No Snow till December! hehe here is to hoping!
Two crafts we will be doing soon... at least as soon as we actually get some fall leaves!
This one is from Full Circle I love that my littlest can do this and I can too! I am a total sucker for Fall!
1. Fold Papers
For each decoration, you'll need to accordion-fold 8 1/2-by-11-inch sheets of colored paper, making 1/2- or 3/4-inch folds. For small faces, accordion-fold 3 sheets of paper vertically, then bend each in half to make a fan. For medium, accordion-fold 6 sheets horizontally. For large, accordion-fold 11 sheets vertically.
2. Form Circles
For small faces, cut 6 strips of paper equal to length of fan's fold and twice its width; fold in half lengthwise. Use a glue stick to attach strips to fans (see below), and fans to one another, forming a circle. For larger faces, glue 1 edge of folded paper to next until you form a circle. Hot-glue center to secure.
3. Add Features
Print templates (get the pumpkin, cat, and owl templates), enlarging by 200 percent for small, 275 for medium, and 325 for large; cut out. Trace shapes onto colored paper twice; cut out. Attach shapes to each side of decoration with hot glue. Hole-punch top; hang using ribbon.
And one more just for fun, this looks super easy and cute! What house doesn't need a little Bat Garland?!!? It says to use tissue paper but I think probably any thing would work!
Directions: Trace or draw desired design across full width of a package of folded tissue paper; we used a cookie cutter as our guide. Cut along the outline, leaving a bit of uncut fold at both sides so figures connect to one another. You'll end up with several strings of five or six shapes each; tape together for a garland.
My reader girl! and My tired boy, you know it is a rough day when you fall asleep with your popper!
Well today started with a bang, or really a scream. Allie came in our room EARLY like before6:30 saying her leg hurt or her knee or something but she managed to wake up Luke in the process, so he was screaming, and Adam got Allie medicine, but we had stayed up a bit later than normal for us so Both he and I were wiped out! It was so hot and humid last night I didn't sleep well, so then the kids got up and I put on shows for them and tired to take a nap on the couch which didn't work so I went up to Allie's bed and slept there for a while, but then I could hear Luke Banging something really loud, (so there is the Bang!) So I went downstairs and tried to nap again down there, then I realized it was 9:20 and we had to be at church at 10 for a primary activity...So I got Adam up and got dressed and ready to go, we picked up some of our friends kids too, and made it to Church on time! So we stayed there till Noon and I was STARVING! So we came home and went to Wegmans to pick up some lunch, Adam had taken Luke to the Hairdresser and managed to get himself a new patient too! He also got his car inspected since it was expired since July! Oops! And went to the bank and the fabric store. So then he went to the gym and I can't really remember what I did, I think I just watched the weather channel.... Then we went over to the Davies for the BYU game... Which was pretty amazing for BYU the score was 59-0 against UCLA. Way to go Cougars! But after half time they had all the second strings in and it played out more like practice than a game so it was pretty boring! And sad really! Then we came home and cleaned up the house gave the kids a bath, and now Luke has passed out Allie is reading (see above picture) and Adam is listening to BYU aftershows....I am writing your ears off! Wow this is wordy!
Anyway, I am SUPER tired, I feel like I have been hit with something, my body is achy I can tell my ribs are expanding! Ouch! I feel 35 wks pregnant! Crazy baby! It has been a long week!![[175.jpg]](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHRBGNPjEnUN3n8BLeclzKJfUNsoeMPEhp3vhc26UlXq7T3kugtVlA2qiBM-zj9iiIQUksl5TQs2iMwHnSpquBUQGC0nvhcwwdSyNny8r4gg3Ht46tpppJ0-gC88Sau-qefHqO6i377Fx1/s1600/175.jpg)
