The Zoo

Karina and Mike invited us to the zoo with them last weekend. Although it was pretty cold we had a great time. My kids love both of them and to be honest it was awesome to have two extra sets of eyes and helping hands.

Bakugon City

So for those of you who don't know what a Bakugon is they are expensive little pieces of plastic that are impossible to find, seriously we are constantly looking for these lost little things, and Grayson is OBSESSED!!!

Hanging out with my sis

Dana, Matt and James came to visit us so we took them to see the witches at Gardner Village. I love going to see all of the festive halloween decorations they set up...We rode ponies and ate LOTS of fudge mmmmm. We enjoyed spending time with them and wish that they lived closer!

My little man is 3

My Bradley is now three...we celebrated by going to Chuck E Cheese (my kids favorite place. Angie and Carolyn came to party with their cute kiddos. After we ate at Noodles and Company for a yummy lunch...We ended the night with pizza presents and cake. What more could a 3 year old want!

Free Wifi

So after 3 years of free internet we have finally have to start searching for an internet company....dang it. So if anyone knows an affordable internet company let me know. I was wishing the days of free wifi would never end but it was to good to be true. I have to get access soon so I can't post all of the fun things we have been doing lately.

Biggest Loser Challenge

So I figure if I post about this it might actually help me to follow through with my goal. I LOVE the biggest loser. I think its an awesome show, not only for people who need to lose a ton of weight but for everyone who needs to lead a healthier life. With that being said I am going to for the entire season of the show, eat healthy, excercise daily and just see what happends. I'm not going to go on some special crazy diet, just eat my 1100 alloted calories a day and see by the end of the show what happends.

For the Record

I thought I was going to die this week but I didn't! I really can't believe that I Laurin Smith the most horrible morning person in THE WORLD was up ready for the day and out of the house with all of my kiddos ready and fed by 8:00 (special thanks to maycie for chopping off all of her hair that saves me approx. 15 minutes a day). For anyone who knows my I am up with my kids in the morning but I do not function at all before 10:00, I don't answer the phone I don't get ready I just veg. I just was not born with a wake up and smell the fresh morning air gene. Anywho...I am alive and really enjoying getting up and getting Grayson off to school. This whole positive attitude my change once I throw Maycies dance and preschool into the mix but we will have to see. For now I am so happy being a busy mommy with a structured schedule again!

Viewer Discretion Advised

I guess these are the pictures that are going to get taken when you leave Adam in charge of the kids.

UGGGGHHHHH

Seriously? Adam.........
This precious little jewel is what I came home to the other night on my kitchen table.




The worst part is until I woke up the next morning I didn't even know there was anything in the cage. Don't worry if you can't tell what it is, it's a giant moth...with horns...and it hisses when you take pictures of it...uggghhh

We traded hair for hats

Thanks to everyone for the cute hat suggestions it seriously has been a great help! We love these cute ones we got from Gardner Village, they have become a daily accessory. We have ordered a few other online and can't wait to get them. It looks like pink and brown will be a hot color combo for us for the next few months.
