Since I blog so regularly, I thought it would be a good idea to have my own domain. Check out stinkle.org. Maybe I’ll actually post something and you definitely don’t want to miss it!
Nate’s First Movie June 6, 2009
We took Nate and Evie to see “Up” in the theater today. It was Nate’s (and Evie’s of course) first movie theater experience. We were pretty sure one or both of them wouldn’t make it to the end. BUT, they both did!
Things Evie did while at the movie:
- watched the screen
- watched Nate and Terry
- drank a bottle
- slept
Things Nate did while at the movie:
- watched the movie
- sat in his booster
- took off his shoes
- put on his shoes
- moved his booster to the ground
- sat in the chair without the booster
- stood on the booster on the ground
- fell off the booster he was standing on
- moved his booster back to the chair
- sat with Terry
- talked to Evie
- talked to me
- ate crackers
- drank milk
- drank juice
- pointed out dogs, ducks, and balloons in the movie
- laughed
- REPEAT.
It was a busy hour and a half for the little guy, but I think he had a great time and actually watched about 1/3 of the movie. Terry and I got to watch most of it, which is what I was worried about. It was a great movie!
Happy 2nd Birthday, Natertot! May 27, 2009
It’s hard to believe it’s been two years since Nate came into our lives. I can’t remember the time when I didn’t love him. He has brought so much joy to our lives. Here’s a monthly recap of his life so far:
We love you, little man! You can blame your sister for my lack of sleep and subsequent lack of witty comments on this special day.
Terry wrote something a little more profound (or at least longer) to mark the occassion here.
Clean Mah House! April 29, 2009
I don’t think anyone actually likes cleaning their house. I definitely don’t, but I DO like the end result, even if it only lasts for a few hours once the kids and cats take over again. I decided to sell out and enter this giveaway from Alice for a free house cleaning, mostly because I need a freaking break.
The one cleaning product I use every week, if not every day, is Clorox wipes. Who doesn’t love those things? They are so easy and can clean up almost anything the kids/cats/husband throw at me. Maybe I’ll take them outside with a margarita and wipe down our patio furniture while Merry Maids clean my house… 
Mother’s Day April 14, 2009
Mother’s Day is just around the corner. I decided to enter my mom in Victoria’s Secret’s Love You Mom! contest because she is absolutely the most selfless and giving person I know. She deserves everything they are giving away and more for what she’s given up and given to us over the years. I’d really appreciate it if you would vote for her and spread the word! Winners are essentially chosen by who has the most votes. You can also vote every 10 hours. The contest ends May 7th.
Thanks for your support!
Mom with her STUNNING daughters on my wedding day.
