{fancy hunnawear}

Look who's a big boy...

He got Buzz Lightyear underwear and some Cars, Incredibles etc. ones at the store, and he wanted to put them on today, and so far so good (it's 3 pm) Potty training is kind of a commitment, one I am reluctant to make, but diapers cost forty thousand dollars a day, so...he's 2.5 years old, and it's time.

By the way, he calls them "Harper's hunnaweah".  He's only 35" tall, so these underwear are about the size of a big apple.  TEENY!  They won't even fit on Mike's head.  When he's 18, he's going to love that I showed his naked self to the internet.  

{the definition of sick and tired}

Sick and tired: (sik n tīrd) adj. -

1. when all of your kids are projectile vomiting
2. when the mother who usually works and takes care of sick children is also vomiting
3. when the mother who is vomiting also has a procedure done at the "girl" doctor to finally nip this 3 month problem in the butt (pardon the pun)

Good news!  It snowed again last night!  can you sense my sarcasm? It is beautiful outside, but we're freezing.  Are humans supposed to live where it snows?  In my world, everyone will live in San Diego.  

Also, I need new running shoes, anyone have any suggestions for someone with flat/wide feet? (other than "stop talking about your gross feet")

{hey there}

If you're still reading/checking, we're back.  We didn't really go private, we just turned our blog off for a few months.  Sometimes you just need a break from blogging, and Mike and I have been blogging since 2003.  It was about time.

Anyway, we're here, semi healthy and exhausted, but we're here.

Here's a video I put together of my most memorable moments of the last year or so that are related to family.  Music:  Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal and The Shins - Sleeping Lessons:

Thought I'd Better Blog Before It Had Been A Month

annnnnnnnd with a Tag. You can thank ELIZA for that.

That being said (and I'll blog again later, just not this second, try tonight, or later this afternoon, ok thanks)

THE HUSBAND

1. Where did you meet your husband? Online. Yep, said it, own it, proud of it.

2. How long did you date before you married? Crap, well that's another story, but we knew eachother for 3 years, and I desperately needed him but couldn't have him for a zillion reasons and finally, one day, the legal system worked and I was free. So "real" dating, 5 months. How's that for an answer? By the way, I love this font! Eliza, where did you get it?

3. How long have you been married? 3 years last September

4. What does he do that surprises you? Well it's more of a feeling that he induces that suprises me. I wake up every day to him smiling at me, and I feel butterflies when he calls me and when it's 30 minutes before he gets home from work every single day, I start to count the minutes. So he surprises me by proving to me what love is, and what marriage is supposed to be.

5. What is his favorite feature? I like his hands. They are always warm and soft. (ditto Liza)

6. What is his favorite quality? I love his sense of humor and that he is a hard worker and he is dedicated. To me, to our family, to the church. (um scary Liza, same as you AGAIN)

7. Does he have a nickname for you? Babe.

8. What is his favorite food? He is a lover of all food, just ask him, he has no favorite. (um Mike and Curtis are different people right? Jeez Liza, we're jinxin on all of these)

9. What is his favorite sport? Curling (click!)

10. When & where was your first kiss? In the parking lot of the Redlands Mall. I was standing on a cement parking block so I could reach him and he gave me 100 tiny little baby kisses. I know, sick but just so "him". He's a sweet-thang.

11. What is your favorite thing to do as a couple? We like to dvr our shows and watch them when the kids are in bed sitting in bed, or pick a themed country and rent 3-4 films from that country. Example, we loooooooooooove asian films, those crazy Japanese people know how to make a horror film, and the French do the best romance, and don't even get me started on Korean action. Crazy.

12. Do you have any children? 2 girls and 3 boys

13. Does he have any hidden talents? He can fall asleep in 2 minutes, snore like a grizzly, and he does the best robot in the world.

14. How old is he? 31, just turned. (hellz yeah, I robbed the cradle. Go ME!)

15. Who said I love you first? I can not remember. Stupid!

16. What is his favorite music? He loooooooves Fiona Apple, the Fiery Furnaces, Radiohead and Autechre (his most favorite, click to get an example) (I dare you to sit through all 3:55 of that song. Seriously, I dare ya. Then you can understand what I listen to when we go anywhere in his car since this cd is STUCK IN HIS CD PLAYER FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS)

17. What do you admire most about him? His quiet ability to take over when I get crazy, and his gentleness, and his patience with me, and his absolute ability to make me feel loved every single night before I go to sleep.

18. What is his favorite color? I have no idea. He is an artist, and is an artist for a living, so it changes daily.

19. Will he read this? If I tell him too.

20. Who do you tag? Rachel, Karisa, Sarah D. (and anyone who would like to.... TAG! YOU'RE IT TOO!)
