oK, oK, i kNoW!

So, I know I'm not the best blogger in the world. I have found it takes too much time, and mostly I'm on here to read other people's-so keep posting ;) Not much has been going on lately. To backtrack a little-Disneyland was great. Grace was the ideal age and personality to go. She loved every second of it and so did I. I haven't been since I was little, so it was a fun experience for me too. Sheesh, having just one kid is so easy. But I did miss Tuck and he missed us, so it was good to get home. To backtrack even furthur, Halloween was fun as well. Tuck was a pirate and Grace a cowgirl. We had to jump through all sorts of hoops to even get Tucker in his outfit (which by the way was only cut up t-shirt and sweats). He really is weird about clothes. He didn't even wear an eyepatch, or the hat, but I at least was able to put a little bit of makeup (beard) on him. Note the picture above--

In November I had set up a family picture with Sandi Bradshaw on the east side of town. I got my kids all dressed up and ready and set out to go. Of course, not 15 min. away from our house, Grace gets sick and throws up everywhere, all over her new outfit, carseat, etc. Immediately 4 windows went down, I called my parents and we turned around for home. So I spent the next couple days dealing with her sickies-not fun. Thanksgiving we went to my aunt's house and had a fun time seeing family and of course eating. After I got home with the kids, I picked up Tucker to put him in and bed and yes-throw up-and yes-DOWN the shirt. I hated being a girl at that precise moment because obviously there's not a clear path down the shirt for us. I also had to wait in that state for 15 min. for my parents to get home before I could jump in the shower and clean off cause I was afraid Tucker would still be sick. Poor Tuck--

So this month, we're hoping for no vomiting, although the cough and runny nose has passed from kid to kid. Tucker turned 2 on the 6th of December. I can't believe how big he is. It's a good thing he still likes to snuggle with me. He has discovered Thomas the train and since the kids have been sick-it's been about 3 days of non stop Thomas dvd's (am I a bad mom?) Happy Birthday Tucker!! Pictures to come...
