My Lil' Lepprechaun

Just thought I'd share a little St. Patty's Day Cheer!!! My Lil' Lepprechaun loves green so this should be a favorite holiday for him!

It's like a game!

I'm turning into a laundry whore!! I'm sure Hubby is very happy about this. IF I thought I could keep this up, I wouldn't mind doing it so much, but inevitably, piles start to form and reality sets in. Sometimes there just isn't enough time for it all! So, I have in the washing machine now 2 small throws and 2 small throw pillows!! Hubby thinks I'm nuts and is warning me to wash ONLY when there is enough for a full load. He can't even take a shirt off without me swiping it up and piling it in the basket! I keep looking around the house wondering if there is anything else left to be laundered. I see right now a couple more blankets. After that, I'll have to wait until we change clothes again!!! So, on a different note, I just went to a Kelly's Kids trunk show! I usually don't buy stuff from there because 1 - the cost is fairly high and 2 - Little Hauss grows so fast, I'm scared he wouldn't get enough wear out of it! But, I did splurge today and got him a green searsucker swim trunks. It was a tad more than I would normall spend, however, I hear that the clothes hold up well and I figured that it was the one item I knew he would wear often. I saw tons of cute stuff that I could have easily gone broke over, but with it taking 4-5 weeks to even ship, I was really nervous of buying anything and then him growing out of it too fast. Now, if I had a girl, it'd be all over with. I would be in debt and have the cutest little princess on the block! Another reason I indulged is $1 shipping!! Can't beat that!

He's gonna be so handsome this summer. AND green is his favorite!

Clean as a whistle!

ALL the laundry and I mean EVERYTHING except the clothes literally on our backs is washed, folded and mostly put where it belongs!
It is amazing to me that I don't really have enough room in all the drawers and closets for everything at once. I guess that's why dirty laundry piles up - so you have plenty of room in your drawers!
So, it has taken me a little over 2 weeks to get it all caught up. Hubby does a great job, but there were the odds and ends such as bathmats, shower curtains, and tons of sheets and towels set to the side for when we had time to do it!!! Well, I've made time. I was sick of looking at the piles!
I HOPE that now that it is all done we can do a load or two everyday to stay caught up!

Other than that, we are doing well!

A little funny: Little Hauss told daddy last night he wanted to watch a video in his room. Daddy asked what he would like, and Little Hauss said "Hawky". Daddy was very confused and asked him to pick out the movie that he was talking about. He pointed to "The Mighty Ducks!". Daddy of course corrected the word to "hockey" and removed all twanginess!!!!!
Seriously? Do we talk like THAT? I know we are in SW VA, but huh??? We need to get a grip on that!

Now that all the laundry is done, I'm off to do some shopping!

Clarification

Ok...Hubby made me a little paranoid earlier about the beer comment! Apparently there was some talk on the local morning radio show this am about this very topic. Is is morally wrong to have your children bring you beer? Most were totally ok with it and some were not. The weird thing is that a listener said they recently read this on a blog...hmmmm, makes a girl wonder???? Could it be mine? Probably not...I seriously doubt I'm that popular in the blog world, but one would only hope! I just don't want bad publicity.....

Either way, I just wanted to clarify that yes Little Hauss KNOWS that we have beer and mommy juice (wine) and that only ADULTS are drinking them. He has in fact brought me a beer from the fridge and sometimes I haven't even asked for one. He NEVER handles an open container and is not allowed to drink it!!!! I'm not THAT stupid! However, I would like to point out that I could make a mean martini for my pop at age 13, so there! Don't Judge!

Houdini

We are forever locking ourselves out of the house even so much so that my MIL got us a really cute key holder for our house for Christmas! Um, yeah, we have YET to put a spare key in it, so it doesn't really do us much good now does it!

So, the other night, it was just the perfect night for some ice cream. I had my car back and we took off around 7ish. We made a quick stop at the in-laws and then onto get some ice cream. We were fat and happy returning to the house around 8:45 (it was Sunday, so Little Hauss wasn't even close to being tired yet due to Daylight savings) to find out that we had no house keys!!!! I had grabbed my key ring with just my car key on it - the one I left with the garage to fix my car!!!!! Hubby had left his keys (and wallet) inside the house. His wallet has a spare key in it...allota good it did us sitting inside the house!!!

Luckily for us, the weather had been delightful and we had some of the windows open. We usually leave the ones open that can't be reached, but we had left the tiny kitchen window (the one above the sink) opened!!! It just so happens that the back deck is backed up to that kitchen window, so we had a way in!!! WELL, you know my fat arse isn't fittin' through there, so what'd we do you ask? I shoved Little Hauss right on through feet first. Plopped him on the counter beside the sink and he opened the door!!!!!

This is just one reason you have children!!!

Get 'em while they're hot!

You have to check out The Pink Clutch and see what she's got on sale. She has super duper cuteness and its all on SALE!!!!

I just snagged this for $12!!!!!! You know me and my summer time beverages will appreciate such a cute pink tote!!!

There are tons of fip flops, towels, night lights and more!!!

Happy shopping!

Just a walkin' the dogs

Well, they were really walking me! AND, since I've been swimming lately, I've conditioned my body to use certain muscles so I forgot that I would actually be sore!!! I'm already starting to feel it!! Tomorrow and Thursday should be fabulous!

They had fun....usually don't take them ya know with a kid and a stroller, but today I was kidfree so I took them both by myself!!! I can't just take one because that just wouldn't be fair! SO I suffered through them pulling me in two different directions and I'm pretty sure that's where some of the soreness is coming in!!

Thank goodness for advil!
