A LOSER!


Ok- so I am a loser too.
Everyday I think about doing a post and the longer I wait the more I have to tell and so the longer it takes to post. So I am starting now and will try to fill you in.

We have been going like crazy the past few weeks. The new Year has hit us with a bang and most days I don't even know what day it is.
Ean and Ben are getting so big, everyday soemthing new is happening with them and everyday I want to tell you about it.
Ben is walking and running like pro. He has the funniest walk, kind of like what a drunk Charlie Chaplin would look like. He tries so hard to keep up with Ean and Hershey it is a crack up. Ean is turning into a little man. Except for the potty training. He is very vocal and loves to tell us what to do. He picks up on everything. Some of my favorite phrases are, "That will be fun" (after we say we are going to go somewhere) or "How about that" (when he asks if he can do something or if he can have something) or sometimes he tells Hershey "I'll spank your butt" (we don't encourage that but well you know). Speaking of the dog, he is so good with her, and a big help. Since it is still cold out at night AND she is a puppy, we baby gate her into the downstairs bathroom at night. Every morning when Ean wakes up he goes straight down there, lets her out and waits for her to go potty. Then when she comes in he feeds her. I am amazed at him for that.
On Saturday morning when I was gone he got up by himself (like usual) but this time he got into the fridge and decided the entire downstairs needed some flavor. So he got (the brand new) bottle of RED hot sauce and spread it throughout the house. In the washer, dryer, laundry room, cat box, cat food and water, on the furniture, carpet, counter, floor, etc. He also dumped out some salad dressing and tried to empty the cat box (unsuccessfully). Poor Jim spent three hours just cleaning it up, then when I got home I finished for another hour and a half. Jim was so upset he didn't even spank him, for fear of going overboard. So afterward I decided everyone needed a break so we went to Chuck E Cheese ( I know I am a glutten for punishment), my niece Sierra went too though so she helped a lot.
I have been really trying to stay focused at work and so far have been doing good. I am getting busy with loans again after the slow down and it looks like it will be a good spring. Jim is also busy fixing the three houses we have in remodle stage right now as well as the three rentals we are trying to keep up with. That poor guy can't even sleep at night he has so many things going through his head, nevermind the Real Estate company he has to run. WoW- I don't give him enough credit.
Anyway, I am going to pick up lunch for the guys I will post more soon.

Wow the boys are growing up so quick. Thanks for the pictures. I don't know what to do about the blog thing. I've got to figure something out but I don't have time right now.

The pictures of the boys are all adorable! I can't believe how busy you guys are - how do you do it all??? I'm so worried about going back to work (sometime in the next year probably)!! Hershey is super cute, they're so cuddly when they're puppies. Don't stress about the potty training - it will happen when he's ready!
