Random stuff for a Monday........

*I'm over Dallas losing...hope Wade practices them long and hard this week

*The bus came waaaay too early this morning to return Maddox to the sitter....and she wasn't home so they took him back to school! uh oh..but all good....Nicole got to school to get him and he was eating lunch with the teacher! and all smiles.....

*Found out from the teacher that Maddox is the "leader" of the class....the teacher said everyone follows him around and does what he does! who knew....

*I had to laugh at Johnny boy tonight.....we were looking for something on tv until Heroes comes on and he saw The Antique Roadshow and got pretty excited! haha...it was funny....guess you had to be here.

*Jacq and Bucky came over for dinner....always a nice treat for us!

*I went to a hand surgeon today for the knot on my ring and pinky finger. It's called a knuckle pad....which is benign and really, just a pain. And now I have to take steroids for 6 days..oh great! As if the no smoking weight wasn't fun enough, now I get to add to that! He said it should be ok.....just drink a lot of water. Oh yeah, the other side effect..trouble sleeping. I've already got the market on that one!

*I'm over Dallas losing....oh yeah, I already said that!

time for Heroes....must go!

Maddox and school.......

Maddox is doing AWESOME with school.
he seems to love it and gets very excited when the school bus arrives.
he has become so much more verbal and seems so much more independent in just one week!
and this morning.....he said......popdart with every bite of poptart he had!
yes.....you read that right, he actually said it!! woo hoo......

More ewwww....

dead squirrel removed from yard by Johnny boy.
I did not want Chrissy to roll around on the ground where the squirrel had been laying all day so I sprayed the area with Method general purpose cleaner...Lavender scent....what, is something weird about that?

later......

Ewwww.......

Dead squirrel in my backyard......

I wonder if Chrissy, my diva dog, met one of her goals for 2008....catch a squirrel!

It's a whole new world......

for our little guy Maddox.
Nicole is putting him in a pre-school for children with disabilities.
It's going to be so different.
It's going to be so good for him.
It's going to be weird.
It's going to be sad thinking of him wondering what the heck is going on.
He has a little tiny bookbag to pack his snack in.
and he's going to ride a bus.......a bus! and he's only 3!
But it's going to be good.

A neat picture...


I finished up my photography class 2 days before we went on vacation. I really learned a lot.....and really learned so much about my camera. One being.....I WANT A NEW LENS!
anyway, here's a cool pic...we came back from the beach with a bunch of mushrooms growing in our yard. I got down, up close and personal......and here's what the picture looks like.

But looks like Hanna would like to delay us a bit......we're keeping our eye to the weather and as soon as we can get down there on Sat, we'll go!! Hanna.....GO AWAY!!
