Aidan has a tube of 3 tennis balls that Ziya gave to him. Ziya is Pam’s husband… Pam is our daycare provider if you’re just catching up 
Aidan is sitting down at his tray for dinner… I move the table away… the table has the tube of tennis balls on it… which slowly got farther away from him…
Aidan: My balls!
Me: You can play with your balls after dinner!
Nick: You walked right into that one…
Watching Toy Story 2 with Aidan…
Scene where the Toys are in Al’s Toy Barn driving the car… they pass all the Barbie Dolls partying…
Aidan: ooooh …. Ladies!
One of the Barbies is doing the Limbo and bends back at a 90 degree angle…
Aidan: oooooh, wow, it’s the Ladies
… and so it begins …
To anyone who ever wondered… they really are born that way
I don’t have a lot of time to blog right now – work, 2 kids, etc. So you can follow me on twitter where I make short updates on what I’m up to. Of course I’ll still post, just the twitter updates will have more info for now.
Look on the right side of my blog and you’ll see the Twitter Updates section. That will update each time I “tweet” on Twitter.

Today we’re hanging “in” watching movies, playing video games, coloring with Aidan, cleaning, etc. Relaxing too I hope.
Got rid of our “death trap” entertainment unit that we’ve had since we got married (7 years). Had enough of it almost tipping, and with all the little quakes we’ve been having didn’t want to chance a bigger one causing an injury or worse around here. Sounds silly but I’m serious. We had a heavy TV that we shoved back far while we pulled the entertainment unit away from the wall … used the weight of the TV to try and keep the entertainment unit “stable”. No anchor and it was super top heavy.
Of course, get rid of that and … well that leads to our recent purchase on our Best Buy CC. 32″ LCD HDTV, new stand, HDMI cable, DVD storage (the cheapie kind), 4 yr product protection plan for the TV. Yah well… I’m back at work now, I’ll get paid soon, and it’s interest free for 12 months. Not as huge of a purchase as I’m making it sound though really. Had a bunch of discounts.
It looks AWESOME.
Don’t judge, you know you want to come over.
Oh and we now have a PS3 (that was last week) – Damnit – Best Buy CC you weakened me. But it’s been since before Nick lost his last job over a year ago that we’ve had any money we could spend. Now he’s at Oakley and SO happy and I love my job, it’s all happy. Now only if we could get some sleep………………………………….
Happy Saturday! 
Me: Is it a nice snake or a mean snake?
Aidan: It’s just a toy.
Ok, so it’s been a while since my last update of actual stuff going on. And as you can imagine I haven’t had much time. So get off my back… OKAY? hehehe…
So Scarlet is growing, she’s awesome! She started daycare on Tuesday so we could get her used to it a bit. Good thing too… her first couple of days were rough and I got some phone calls with questions, etc. I can’t imagine having to field all that on my first day back at work… hello stressful!
Oh yah, I go back to work tomorrow morning! I am going back a week early… why not, eh? It will be nice to get back into the swing of things.
Aidan is super funny lately – even more than usual. Very cute with his little sister as well. Tonight he grabbed the baby’s hand and closed his eyes and prayed… “Dear Jesus… thank you for today and mommy and daddy, etc…. AMEN” how cute – he prayed with her… awwww! He said more than that… just giving the short version.
It’s so neat to see him grow. He’ll be 3 very soon (less than a month) and it puts all the stuff with the baby in perspective. It reminds me all the screaming will stop and become different screaming. But 3 year old screaming is ok because you usually know why and you are allowed to put them in a time out. No time out for a little baby, hehe.
Scarlet will be 7 weeks old tomorrow, woo hoo! Time flies.
Sorry for the bits and pieces… I know there’s more… more happy little nuggets of goodness but I can’t remember it all now, Scarlet is crying and I still need to eat dinner…
Have a good night all, and Happy Mother’s Day to my momma friends and to my momma momma Angela.
