Surprise!

I went by Klint's work today to say "hi" and was suprised to see Klint was de-dreaded! Klint LOVES surprising me by cutting all his hair off. It was hard for him but he felt it was time to say "good bye." :(

R.I.P. Dreadies.... we'll miss you.




I've honestly always thought Klint was hot no matter what hair style he's had. Here's the different styles Klint's tried out in the past....

Called me obsessed....

I came across the Vanity Fair December 2008 issue with a spread of pics of the "Twilight" cast and had to share. I thought it was fun to see what they look like w/o all the bad vampire makeup and horrible clothes...Who says these people are ugly?!



Here's the link for the rest of them, Vanity Fair "Twilight" photo shoot.

O Christmas Tree!

This is how our decorating of the tree went this year...

*Notice Jaakson's naked blur running around....



Klint does such a good job every year! I'm so grateful he puts up with my O.C.D. Christmas decorating. I wonder if he notices I rearrange the ornaments every year so they are evenly distributed? Does anyone else do that or just me?

*If you like the Christmas music on my blog, you'll LOVE the Christmas tunes at this link, kidschristmastunes2004. Hahaaaaaa! I love my family.

A poignant 3-year old's words....

This morning I was suprised to find Jaakson had emptied an entire gallon of Kikoman soy sauce from the fridge ALL over our kitchen floor......and Shae was sitting in the middle of it all. I was REALLY upset, to say the least and yelled, "GO SIT IN THE TIME-OUT CHAIR, NOW!" I was furious. I was sick of cleaning up what feels like 20+ messes a day! (That kid really tests my patience on a daily basis). So, Jaakson is wailing in time-out and Shae is tottering around in a soggy, soy sauce-saturated diaper. Lovely start of the day, right? After all is mopped up and I'm finishing in the kitchen, Jaakson comes out of time-out and in a very uncharacterstic small voice says, "I just a little kid, Mommy." It absolutely melts my heart. I give him a hug and smile. Thanks for reminding me, Jaakson.

Cute babies...

I just never get sick of cute pictures of my kids so here's another one. Shae and my friend, Kim's, litte boy Brooks....they're buddies now. ;)

I LOVED IT!

I loved the movie "Twilight!" I'm able to say this because I've come to realize over the years that books will ALWAYS be better than the movies. I think the movie really catches the essence of "Twilight" and I think the actor and actresses were great! I was pleasantly suprised. And I think the lead actor and actress for Edward and Bella had great chemistry! 8 out of 10 for me! I can't wait to see the movies that follow!

Harrrrrrry!

*I'm not gonna lie, I was a little more excited to see this than "Twilight" and was kind of annoyed when they pushed HP to next summer. Oh well, less than 24 hours!
