da beach

I finally had some time

To download some photos

And I realized

I hadn't posted any pics

From our trip to Florida

In March

Not from Disney in December

We went back in March

Because we were so angry

That the weather was the shits

Back in December

So it was a protest trip

I guess ;)

Anyway,

Here is my favorite

From Ft. Myers beach

Of my 2 little monsters

Playing under the brellie

In the sand

Needless to say, our protest worked

It was 85 & sunny for 2 weeks straight....

"Actually,...."

My very smart
almost 4 year old daughter
is a funny little lady

It doesn't matter what
Anybody says
about anything
She always has to correct
Some aspect of it

Mommy: Is your milk empty?
Lauren: Actually, mommy, it was chocolate milk I was drinking.

Mommy: Do you want syrup on your french toast?
Lauren: Actually, mommy, I would like it on the side to dip.

Daddy: Whoa! Mr. Incredible is a powerful superhero!
Lauren: Actually, Daddy, Mr Incredible doesn't have any super powers. He's just very strong.

Everyone: "Happy Birthday , dear Co-o-o-le" (at his birthday party)
Lauren: ACTUALLY, (yelling a bit) my little bro's birthday isn't until tommorrow.

Neighbour: Hi Lauren, did you have fun in Florida?
Lauren: Actually, we were in Ft. Myers at Tracy & Mike's condo.

Grandma: Did you like seeing all the princesses at Disneyworld?
Lauren: Actually, Grandma, I just met Cinderella, Snow White, Jasmine and Ariel. I actually didn't meet Pocohontas, SLeeping beauty or Mulan.


Now for my personal favorite..

(After a visit to the potty)

Mommy: Good girl! Did you wipe your bum?
Lauren: Actually, mommy, I wiped my va-jay-jay. I actually only wipe my bum when I do a poo-poo.

There you have it.

wtf??!!

wtf
is wrong with some people?

Li'l King Cole...

..is 1 year 'ole

I can't believe it

Honestly,

I can't.

Time flies

When you're in the

'Land of No Sleep'

The troubling part is

I don't see myself escaping

the 'Land of No Sleep'

Anytime soon

Anyway

Enough about me

It's my Little Man's

Big Day

He trotted around yesterday..

Greeted his guests

Played with the kids

Walked around with his

$25 Mickey Mouse Balloon Bouquet

(Yes, I said 25 bucks)

Ripped opened gifts

Ate cake

But decided that cake

Wasn't as enjoyable

as he thought it was going to be..

And posed for many, many pictures

I've titled the one above

"Will you please get this effing thing off my head?"

Happy Birthday, my gorgeous little guy.

the disappearance of spring

what is up with it?

disappointing
to say the least

it's been snowing here
for a week
on and off

we thought
that if we go to Florida
towards the end of March
we would come home
to spring

no such luck

all week
it rains in the day
snows at night
melts in the morning
rains all day
snows at night
melts in the morning

effing crazy

the kids are so over
winter activities
they are anxious
just to get out and run
or play on the bikes
or scooters
or whatever else has wheels

in my li'l man's case
walk
up and down the driveway

he'll do that all day

its the only place
they can play
because

with all the rain and snow
the lawn is a mushy mess

this weekend is
"SUPPOSED" to warm up

fingers crossed
for the kid's sake
and my sanity

torn

Like my usual self
I think I've changed my mind again

I'm not sure if I'm just too tired
To start my blog over again
Or just too tired
To learn something new right now
Or just too tired
Period

I think it's the latter

I'm staying put for a bit
I started Wordpress yesterday
But then the Li'l King cried out
For Mommy
So I had to abandon it

Then I thought about how Blogger
Pulled me out of a bit of a depressing state
A few years back
And helped me clear my mind

I can't just leave an old friend like that

That wouldn't be like me at all

So, until this old friend
Pisses me off again

I'm back. :)

(LOL)

Moving..

...no, not homes again
(Thank God!)

Moving over to
Wordpress
To blog

Blogger
Has been giving me
Nothing but
Problemos
Since Google
Weasled it's way in

Me no likie.

Didn't even know
About Wordpress
Until a buddy of mine
Over at
www.creativerelief.net
Set her blog up
There

So I'm going to be
A copycat
and give it a shot

Nicole -
