My Gum Flavor

You Are Fruit Flavored Gum

You are quirky and independent. You don't tend to follow any one style or rule book. You are a mix and match type of person, and you draw inspiration from many sources. While you're definitely a bit unusual, you get along well with other people. You're eager to welcome anyone into your world. You are not judgmental at all. You form close bonds with your friends, and your relationships tend to be very secure. You hold firm to your beliefs and values, and you don't let anyone talk you into compromising them.

What Flavor Gum Are You?

Loganisms

Here are a couple funny Logan stories. 1. Yesterday I was changing Logan's britches and he says, "Ouch! that's spiky, like a bunch of spikes, like a porcupine! Yeah, like a porcupine." You probably guessed what the spiky, porcupine culprit was. Yeah, you got it, my legs! I thought that was very funny! He is very descriptive.
2. I sent him to his room for talking back to me yesterday. When I went in to talk to him, I got down to his level to explain why he was in his room. As I am trying to talk to him he grabs me by both cheeks and says, "Momma, will you please be happy with me." I tried to explain that I am happy with him but that it makes me sad when he talks back to me. He then repeats the same statement and gives me this hopeful smile. He can be very sweet when he wants to be.

Oh, the Bitter, Bitter Disappointment!

Dustin had a meeting with his bosses today. They had told him that the meeting was no big deal. WHATEVER!! Dustin meets with them to find out that our trip to Cancun that we were leaving on in less then three weeks was postponed until October. Talk about disappointment! I have been so excited for the break, the beach, and the alone time with my honey! So, I am now trying to cope with my loss. At least it gives me much more time to attempt to get a beach body!

Celebrity look-a-likes!

What do you think?! I thought this looked like fun! Thanks Megan for the idea!
Just so everyone doesn't think I am the meanest wife around, I did get Dustin's permission to put this picture up of him.

Spooky!

I scare pretty easy. I will admit to that before I get this started. I laid the kids down for a nap today because we are going to be out late tonight. I am bushed after walking 3 miles this morning with my mom and then going to the gym and working out for 1.5 hours. So, I laid down myself. I had only been laying down for 5-10 min. when I heard what sounded like something falling down in my attic followed by footsteps running from the spot. Chills went down my spine and my legs felt somewhat paralyzed as I listened intently to hear if there was any more noise coming from the attic. I heard a little noise here and there. I don't know what is in my attic, it sounded big and I could make out individual footsteps as the "thing" ran. I called my mom and she said it was probably a squirrel. Who knows, it sounded HUGE to me! I went out to make sure the garage doors were locked and they were. I am at a loss, but I will most certainly not be the person to stick my head up in that attic to investigate!

Pretty Toes!

I decided to try painting Ashlynn's toes today for the first time in her life. She did very well, stayed very still. Of course Logan wanted in on the action and I tried to tell him that if I painted his nails, Daddy would not be happy with Mommy. He was adamant so I decided to put some nail art on his big toe. He was rather content with this solution. I noticed that within a 1/2 hour one of the stickers had already fallen off. Fun times in the Parker house, wouldn't you say!

Procrastination!

My Nursing Licence renewal is coming up in a couple of months. Every two years I have to have 20 hours of Continuing Education in order to renew my license. I renew my license so I don't have to ever, ever, ever take the dreaded Nursing Boards ever again. I have procrastinated doing all of my continuing education until now. I have finished 10 of my 20 hours thus far. It is hard to concentrate when I have my kiddoes needing this and that and fighting like cats and dogs. It is kind of interesting to exercise my mind though, after such a long period of inactivity!
