Girlie Girl

Everyday we find that Brielle is more and more a girlie girl. She is so funny, she is always saying "eww that is gross mom" the other day we were watching noggin and in between the cartoons they have little spots with kids doing some kind of craft or planting things well on this day they had two little kids showing how worms make their homes in the dirt. So they got a clear jar and put dirt and rocks and stuff in it then they dug up some worms from the garden, the little girl on the show picked up one of the worms to put it in the jar and Brielle with a horrified look on her face looks at me and says " EWWW Mom that is soo gross!!" I couldn't help but laugh and she just sat there going " ewww gross" over and over, and since then when ever she thinks something is gross she always pulls the face and says "ewww that is so gross" . This is funny to me because none of the boys ever did this and neither did Morgan, she was always right there with her brothers digging in the dirt and playing with "gross stuff". She also has become aware that she doesn't like her hands and face to be messy either. This all just makes me laugh!!

Stevie is my hero


When we went to St. George for Easter in March my so sweet sis in law Stevie brought me this wonderful gift. I got hooked on this anti frizz serum awhile ago and when I started to run out and went to the store to buy more I couldnt find it anywhere every store I went to I would look for this and no one had it. Stevie was at a store farther north than where we live and found 5 bottles of it. So she bought a few and was kind enough to give me a bottle. I was sooo happy I almost cried. Now I found out that they changed the bottle, so now I will have to start looking again for the new bottle, because I am such a dork I just look for the bottle shape and not the actual name of the product. Again Stevie THANK YOU so much!!! You are truly a hair hero!! :)


By the way this is what the new bottle looks like for those of you who are like me and just look for the bottle shape!! Oh also I guess I should put in a rave for why I love this product. I color my hair alot and it gets the wonderful haystack feel and look so I tried this stuff and fell in love, it made my hair feel soft, I was able to run a brush through it when it is wet and it has these great conditioners in it so while it is in your hair it is actually doing something good for it. I love this stuff !! I might have to become like Elaine on Seinfeld when she hordes the sponges, but my horde will just be anti frizz serum!!

:P

I know, I know I am a major slacker when it comes to keeping this blog up to date, but hey cut me some slack, I am the mom of 6 (well only 5 are here at home) I have to pick up, drop off, make it to all their appointments on time, plus pick up something for dinner!! Yeah right just kidding I actually sorta cook, if spaghetti , mac and cheese, sandwiches is considered cooking. Wow we have been busy. The kids are in school still and it just seems like I live my life in the car. Allen is working from home now. I'm not completely sure how this is going for him, for me and the other kids, it has been different. We have to be quiet alot and gone alot, but the kids think it is fun to "walk dad to work" with cereal on the way!! My sister Ashlynn had her baby on March 31, 2008, and we couldn't be more happy for her. She had a girl her name is Lucy and she is just sooo cute. I havent seen her in person yet but I will get to the first weekend in May. Which reminds me, the girls that I get together with once a month have planned a weekend getaway to St. George that same weekend. I am sooo excited about this. I think every mom and wife needs to spend a weekend away with all the girls, just to do girlie things and relax. Which we will definetly be doing as long as the weather stays nice and warm there. As for me I just do my mom stuff and try to keep Allen happy, man I need a hobby, or hey maybe I will go back to school. That would be cool then I could get my license and really do hair, yeah that would be way cool!! Well then back to reality, I really need to stop daydreaming, so if anyone is looking for the perfect gift to give me it would be money toward hair school!! :) I can dream!! WOW!! that was weird anyway back to my boring life..... ahh never mind!!
