I L-O-V-E Her!!!!

I love this little girl. She's our little angel. She never ceases to make us happy and amaze us (for example, it's amazing to us that she STILL isn't crawling...). We are so very thankful that she is in our lives and our little family. Sad for the rest of you that she's ours and not yours... :)

Bryan's Blog Contribution

So, we all know that 9 times out of 10 it's the wife doing the blog. There are, of course, exceptions, but for the most part, that's how it goes. Bryan is a little bit involved with our blog though. He is in charge of the lovely music you hear. I get no say in the music but he does make sure he puts songs on there that I like. For the first time the other night I made a request. There was a specific song that I wanted on our blog. (BTW, the reason I care is because it's my jute box. I listen to our blog music while I am photoshopping or scrapbooking.) I really wanted that Rascal Flatts song on there. I just really like it. Bryan is NOT, I repeat NOT, a Rascal Flatts fan (although it will forever remind him of Andrea Smith). So, this is my disclaimer, Bryan does not want anyone thinking that someone as awesome as him would lower their standards to listening to the Rascal Flatts.
Man, I love him!!

Our Little Lazy Princess

Addilyn is almost ONE! I can hardly believe it. She is such a little princess. And I don't mean that in a good way. She is seriously so lazy that she refuses to crawl. She gets on all fours if she wants something. She rolls to it if she wants something. She whines until she gets something. She waits for Carter to bring her something. Ans most of all, Princess Addi has decided that she prefers to be held instead of being on the ground like the rest of us lesser mortals. Seriously, how do I fix this problem?

Calling All People with Crappy Teeth!!

If you are anything like me then you have really horrible teeth. That's right, I'll admit it. Why do you think I married a man who thinks teeth are cool and wants to play with them for the next 40 years?

The time has come for Bryan to take the "hands-on" portion of his exam to be a real-life dentist. In order to do this, he has to find people with certain types of cavities. He also has to find someone who needs a deep cleaning. (Not a normal cleaning... a DEEP cleaning.)

This would mean that you would have to come into the clinic (conveniently close by), have FREE x-rays done, let Bryan poke around in your mouth for a minute, and see if you have what it takes to be a guinea pig. If you do, then you would come back on June 6th or 7th and let him fix that pesky tooth for FREE or get that much needed cleaning for FREE.

WHAT A SMOKIN' DEAL, HUH? Honestly, if you think you might have something in that beautiful mouth of yours that may work, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE email/call one of us (jenwyeth@gmail.com).

I would even be willing to trade you. FREE FAMILY PICTURES if you have something that BRYAN can use for his boards. (Can you tell I'm getting desperate?) :) I don't care if we know you or you just happened upon our blog by blog-hopping, please STOP brushing your teeth today so you can help out my husband. Ok, don't do that, but please contact me if you think you may have something that he could work on.
Thanks!!!!

iHappy Cinco de Mayo!

Hey there, faithful readers. Just wanted to let you all know that we are alive and well. We got back to the land of the sun last weekend and have been playing catch up ever since. I have been trying to get on top of my pictures (of other people) and have therefore NOT been taking pictures at home. But, on the up side, there are some really really nice looking pictures on my photo blog. Feel free to check them out. :) I'll post some pictures and a REAL post soon. Until then, have a GREAT Cinco de Mayo. :)

Carlsbad Flower Fields

The other day we went to LEGO LAND!!!!!.... and they were closed. What the crap is up with that?! Apparently, on the "off season" they close it on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. But, right next door are the Carlsbad Flower Fields and they are in full bloom. The flowers are SO pretty. I put more pictures of them on my photoblog if you want to see what you are missing out on. The kids really liked it. Carter loved the tractor ride and playground (it really was a great playground) and Addilyn liked being outside and was surprisingly into the flowers. It was completely worth the trip and it's so pathetic that I lived here for so long and never enjoyed these beautiful flowers.






Worst-Mom-Ever Award


I know what you're thinking: "No, Jen, in fact, you are a WONDERFUL mom because you took your children to the happiest place on earth; DISNLEYLAND!"
What if I told you that I actually went to Disneyland with Bryan and my parents and brought the kids back shirts? What if I also told you that while I was there I saw COUNTLESS mothers trying to control out of control kids, cranky kids, and tired babies. Every time I saw one of these moms there was a happy little place in my heart that my kids were far far away from me at home. :)
BUT, there were several times that Bryan and I said how excited we are for the day that the kids are old enough. It was just such a different experience without them. We even went over to California Adventure for a few hours. If you ever go there, you MUST, I repeat, MUST go on Soaring over California. It was seriously like flying. Make sure you sit in the front row. It is one of the most awesome rides in the whole world! Back at Disneyland, we didn't have to wait in any lines longer than 30 minutes. Aside from Indiana Jones, we only waited 5-15 minutes per ride. We had such a blast and one of these days, we'll take the kids with us. :)
