Tweens....

after much consideration and rule setting we allowed Matthew to join a networking sight. He attempts to find the right profile picture...

Sucker....

Carter has a double ear infection, asthma and is cutting his 2 top teeth...life here has not been easy. Anything I Can do to buy a few minutes of time to clean or do something productive I will take it...Matthew had a sucker and he was watching Carter in the tub for me..Matthew told me to come in and see this...Carter was not about to give up the sucker that Matthew let him "taste"...would you give up a chocolate Mrs. See's sucker!?

Crafty Cabin fever...

What do you do when you have been in the house for 8 days!?! make messes, stay in your cozy clothes, eat, cook, laundry, and crafts!!

I love the Dollar Tree store for the simple reason I can plunk down 10 bucks and have a ton of activities for Olivia that involve no glue and no scissors...I am not the crafty kind if girl...nope not me...so when I saw that you can actually get a princess crown (3pack) I was so happy!! Olivia thought I was the best mom in the world and that is all that matters!

Montanna ( my niece) was here spending the night with us for a few days and even she got into the fun!







Her poses are getting more sophisticated everyday...she really believes she is RoCKsTaR!!

Pickles and Colds...

Carter LOVES pickle! He also has not been feeling well...so we pulled out his baby car seat, buckled him in and had him sleep next to us...he slept better but not solid and didn't seem to mind being strapped in. It was better then him trying to sleep laying down.

Take me some where warm....

I think we all want to be somewhere warm...Here is a picture of us back in October at the beach in California...that was the trip with no kiddos...AWW...I want to go back!!

Thursday's With Tiffiny

I'm thankful for...My hard working husband who does not complain about working in this weather. Who bundles up in 3 layers to deliver goods to farms. Who is always thinking if us everyday. He is one of the most unselfish guys I know. Thanks Baby!!

I'm listening to...Little bear and Carter attacking Olivia on the ground.

In the oven...

Maybe just maybe cupcakes!!

What's for dinner tonight....Soup...not sure what kind but I am perfecting all kinds of soups!! YuMMy!

What I'm looking forward to...Finishing up shopping...Have only went once..Yikes! finding a sitter for the kids seems to be impossible and I am picky so that combination is not good.

What's happening this week....

Here is to another week of this!!

I need to finish shopping and wrapping , yelling at my kids to pick-up, vegging out on the couch to the season finale of Biggest Loser, washing laundry, scrubbing toilets, removing permanent marker from something., windexing the bathroom mirror after some little princess has to kiss it with her chap stick on...cleaning out my van, washing the dog, mopping my floors, paying bills, going to the grocery store at least 2 times, pouting because nobody cleans up after themselves, telling every single person who live with me I am going on strike, fighting with my little ones to go to bed...wheeww...I am sure I could go on but i know you get the idea!

celebrating the birth of Jesus!!

I am missing...This week would have to be Cher...after 10 years and many talks along with ups and downs...I wish she would move back but I support you Cher!!

I would love to see what your Thursday's bring!!

Family & Cookies

Sunday we went to my Mom Timmers for a cookie making party! She has the perfect house for all of us to gather and does such a wonderful job of decorating her home to make us all feel welcome. She had made so many goodies prior to us arriving. We all brought cookies either made or to be made. We got to bring some home to our families. Mine are already gone! To feed this family I would need to go to about 5 cookie exchanges.

Crazy Busy!!

We have been crazy busy..I know everyone is busy! I wish I could say I have been busy shopping, wrapping, making homemade gifts for my loved ones (yeah, right!) but you get the idea...Nope, none of that stuff! Crazy busy with family! Tis' the season for family!


My brother and sister threw a party for my mom in honor of her 50Th birthday! WoW! 50! My children better help me celebrate when I am 50! Only because I made it through raising them! I would also like to say that planning the party with 2 siblings was great! More hands...less work! reminds me why I have 3 kids.

We had a great dinner and a wonderful DJ Click here to book him for your next event! He was Awesome! He can do any event for you...weddings, birthdays, and parties!

Happy Birthday Mom! We love you!

Holy Moly.....

Must have been a slow news day...My blog got 521 hits in one day!!! Now that's worth A HOLY MOLY! People read this!?!

Not me....

Here is to the Not Me Monday's...

As a mom of many I try to cut corners anywhere I can...You know the type...the one who microwaves the babies bottle when it says not to..the one who does not change the diaper every 3 hours on the hour...you get the point. I am the mom who believes that mom's spit to wash the face is a great invention and me sucking the germs off the binky when it falls is okay. I am not perfect so that's why I love the Not Me Monday's mom click here to read her blog.

It was not me who used the TV as a babysitter for most of the week last week so I could get something done. It was not me who threatened Santa on Liv when she was Naughty. It was not me who put all the kids to bed at 6:45pm and told them they had to go to bed or it would not snow. It was not me who said screw it when carter would not sleep at 3am...went to the living room and put on Barney and surfed the Internet. It was not me who let the kids sleep with there blankies even though they where nasty gross with spilt milk and whatever else on them. It was not me who went in a night and covered their lips with chap stick.
