This is a place where "the Mommy" can blog about "the Boys"... they outnumber her 3-to-1, so she needs to be able to vent about them somewhere. 

And there is a plan to have more kids in the future, so maybe in 2012 the numbers will even out a little more, looking like a full count (them being the 3 balls lol), or with Mommy's luck it'll just put her further behind.

Oh and expect some scrappy stuff too.

6am....

*knocks mic* Hello?? Hello?? Is this thing on??

What is there to do at 6 in the morning on a saturday??

waits for response...

...nothing


Nothing is damn right. hahaha. I actually woke up at 330 this morning... and I felt like those old people in Manoa that walk at 330 in the morning because they get up at 330 in the morning. But I didn't walk. Because if I did, then I would be an old person. talk about saving face, huh.

Just wanted to give a happy saturday morning post, all contributing to the plan to blog more often. off to J's computer to organize the millllllllllllllions of pictures i have stored on the external HD. Which reminds me, does anyone have recommendations of software or peoples to pull whatever information/files the can save from a fried external HD?? Because I have allllllllll my digital pictures from when we first got a digital camera to 2007 on there and that includes about 90% of Albert's first 3 years of life.

TIA and TTYL!!!

naughty naughty!!!!

so.......

how long has it been since i last posted here??

hello?? hello?? anyone still here???

probably not.

here's the quick update of the last month (or two) in list-awesomeness...

* j brokeded his hand at the end of march and has been out of work since... almost 3 whole months of having him home. which is a good thing. A GOOD THING. right.
* amare turned 1 on may 18th
* we had a super fun birthday party, tons of good people and the photog was great, everyone loved it. (mental note: still waiting on the CD they're supposed to send with all the pictures on there... need to call them tomorrow)
* we left the next day (05-19) for vegas and disneyland.
* vegas was a lot of fun, except the last night when someone stoleded jared's phone. (not nice, plus the people even tried to use it!!!!)
* disneyland was a TON of fun, except for 2 things: 1) we expected it to be warmer than the 50's, and 2) someone stole my purse the last night in disneyland.
* we didn't have good luck with people NOT stealing our crap. boo.
* Albert finished up his first year of preschool the first week of June. it has been such a wonderful experience, we cannot wait until next school year!!
* Albert has been home EVERY DAY since the first week of June. I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL NEXT SCHOOL YEAR.
* so-called website designer has been hired... and this time we're going with my cousin who just graduated HS and is willing to work with J to understand CSS and PHP and Smarty... (do you understand this?? can you help me?!?)
* craft room is as clean as it's gonna be for the next few months, or at least until we enclose the garage... the craft/computer/sewing room will all be combined in the garage, and the boys will move downstairs.
* i taught myself how to knit =o) granted, its not anything i'd be willing to share with anyone other than my grandmama, but hey, its my first project (after a combined 4 hours over 2 days worth of learning on my own) and i'll get there eventually, i hope.
* i have decided to re-learn how to sew. funny story: i was sitting at a boring make-n-take, staring at the rack of idea books when i saw 2 that peaked my interest... skirts and aprons. after flipping through them, i said, it doesn't look THAT hard to do, and I took sewing class one summer over 10-years ago, i'll try some. HA! we'll see how far that goes.

phew. i hope that's enough of an update. i really, really plan to keep up with this blog.

but i think that's what i said a few times before... lol.

well, third time's the charm, right??
