Winter Wonderland

Hello Winter! We are having a nice snow storm. It is a winter wonderland out there. We are stuck at home with diet coke and t.v. I guess that's all that really matters. Tyson keeps trying to drag his diaper bag to the door and wave good bye. I guess he wants to go somewhere but we are kinda snowed in.

When dad is in charge.......

When dad is in charge sometimes not so good things happen. Like having to finish watching the football play or the WWE fight or some golf hit or something and you don't go get your child when he wakes up from a nap and so things like this happen. The bibs were so nicely piled on the shelf and Tyson got bored I guess waiting for Eric to go and get him so he pulled them down and played with them for a while. But then dad makes up for it by playing with Tyson and his new found toy horse. He loves this thing. Tyson isn't walking yet (what a dud just kidding) so he has a very hard time riding this horse but he LOVES it.

Fries and Ketchup

Tyson LOVES to dip his food. We had french fried today and he just HAD to have something to dip them in. So, I gave him ketchup and he ate more ketchup than he did french fries. He had it in his hair and in his ears. What a messy eater. His new thing when he is eating is shoving things in his ear leaving them there having a piece off his tray and then eating the one that was in his ear. Yummy huh?

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! Tyson was a dog for Halloween he hated his costume. He hated the hood the most. He loved the candy though! He is still loving the candy. I thinks Tyson's favorite is suckers. He likes to put them in his hair and then thinks it is funny when they get stuck. I HATE suckers they are so sticky. Yuck. So, he only gets one when Eric gives it to him. I am so mean. Everyone thought that he was a skunk. Not sure how a dog gets confused with a skunk but hey! It was a fun halloween!

Good Deal!

I have been just running into deals lately. With garage sales and at the store. This was an awesome purchase. The dish soap - free, the shampoo - free, the deoderant- $1, the cookie mix - 72 cents, the Jello - 20 cents, the razors- 95 cents, and the cough drops - 48 cents. How did I do it? COUPONS! They are my new best friend. I love them. *sigh*

Garage Sales

I scored big time!! The red cabinet - 10 bucks. The black bench - 3 dollars. The blue storage things - 2 bucks (you can't see them very good). The box of yarn - 3 bucks. The shirt boxes - 2 bucks. The bag/purse thing - 1 buck. I think all the toys equaled 4 bucks. The snow boots 25 cents. I won't list every thing but, as you can see I got a ton of stuff for cheap! It was awesome.

I am glad my neighbor took me. I used to think garage sales were yucky and wonder why you would buy some strangers stuff. It is dirty and full of germs. But I thought about it and had a game plan.

I would go unshowered. Touch things. MAYBE buy something. And then come home and take a very long hot shower and bleach ANYTHING that I bought.

Well as you can see I had to use my game plan. But it was not nearly as yucky as I thought it would be. I didn't have to have a long hot shower. Just a normal shower and I didn't even use very much bleach. So it was GREAT! I will be going again!!

Update Overload

Ok so, I just posted like 5 posts. Sorry about the overload. We have been so busy this summer with work, family cookouts, family reunions, GOLF, and a little more GOLF, and sickness, teething, etc. The list could go on and on. So a quick update on us. I am still working both jobs and still drinking lots and lots of diet coke. That about sums it up. Eric is still working and is golfing when he isn't working. Tyson is growing so fast. He has one tooth. I think it is lonely. How much can a child eat with only one tooth? Well I can tell you. But I won't bore you. He just got over a sinus infection this past week. Really how many 1 year olds get sinus infections? He had an allergic reaction to the medicine the doc gave him so we had to get a new med on Sat. That was fun calling the call-a-nurse and the on call doctor. But that is a very long story so I will not bore you with that either. Let me just say I think I drank the most diet coke in my life that day. These posts should have been posted months ago. I apologize. I will do better with my blogging. I just hope blogger is nicer next time.
