Big 2

He's not my baby anymore. My little Quintin man has turned 2. He turned 2 last Sunday but we were in the mountains celebrating Allison's first communion so we set the birthday thing aside. Instead we waited til yesterday to throw the big shah bang. We set up a mini water park for the kids including one medium pool, two dink pools, inflatables galore, water guns up the wazoo and a slip n slide. To top it off we had hot dogs and something that I can not pronounce, let alone spell....I want to say squadoosh but I know that is wrong. Ask Leaner or Abenanna. Quintin got bored of opening presents and just wanted to play so we let daddy have a go....very dramatic. Anywho it was wonderful (except the yucky wind)

Tired

I am tired of cleaning, there is no point
I am tired of not knowing whether or not I will have a job next week
I am tired of pointless homework in which I learn very little
I am tired of feeling unorganized and not knowing how to solve the problem
I am tired of my four year old who continues to be nonstop naughty
I am tired of being grumpy
I am tired of being tired

My Conner Kitty

I stole these from "Will Blog for Rootbeer" blogger. To the left are some videos that I just could not resist. They remind me so much of our late Conner. Those of you who knew him, we had to put him down last year for some major health problems. He was the cat that made a guy who hates cats, actually consider owning one. Conner was more dog than cat by willing spent time with humans constantly other than "allowing you to be in the presence of the majestic cat" attitude. If you sneezed, he would meow you a bless you, even if it was from the other room. He actually let you pet his belly without clawing you. Conner would also tolerate baths. Now I am not saying he liked them, he had a look of "I will murder you in your sleep someday" look when he had a bath, but would never try to escape. Any question you asked him, he would have answer for, whether it was an exaggerated yawn or a blunt mauw. The softest fur on the planet (also the worse shedder on the planet). Absolutely beautiful and did I mention he was ginormous? I miss him.....I miss him a lot. Anyways enjoy the Simon's cat films, they are my current favorite from Youtube.



Quintin and Conner. Conner loved napping next to boys when they were babies.


Collin and Conner. See the "I am only going to tolerate you for the picture" look he is giving?

Shhhhhhh


Well the big secret is out. At grandma's party yesterday I appeared in the worst outfit ever. Yes, I now work for safeway handing out "tastes", yes I wear a big ugly baker's hat, yes, I will murder briana when or if she posts that pic she got of me. My substituting job ended on February Friday the 13th. As a long term substitute I was only allowed to work 120 days. My 120 ended and I left the school with many hugs and a few crying students. I miss them and hopefully I will have this silly degree soon so I can go back to them. I am hoping this job will turn into something permanent because at the moment it is only a two week gig. My hope is that it turns into a bakery cake artist job. I think I would really enjoy trying that out.
