AF Marathon 2010

Congratulations Racers!

Racer's are you ready?

Cole is no stranger to hogging the bed!

I just packed up the Pack n' Play! I will not have this little guy hogging the bed again. Just wanted to wish the racers good luck-We will see you all soon!

Run So Far-Run So Fast!

Drew

Drew has a B-Day this weekend.

Don't party too hard! And save some cake for me!

Happy Birthday Drew!

Sorry Josh

The past few years Ju-Ju gets in between mine and Josh's battles. Ti's the season for college football and whatever team wins is the collar Ju-Ju wears for the week. Well, as you can see Cole is in on it too! Good thing both Ju-Ju and Cole love "Bucky the Badger" over "Brutus the Buckeye"....GO BADGERS!!!

I have to give a thanks to Drew for picking out this outfit for Cole-I know he will get a lot of use out of it! Hee Hee!!!

We are getting ready for our Annual trip to the Air Force Marathon. Okay maybe I'm not getting ready yet but I hope the racers are!!! Everyday has something planned for us. It will be a quick and fast trip-we just have too many people to see in too short of time.

Last week I did a little outlet shopping! I found some cute things. I can tell you already Cole is good on clothes until he gets in the toddler section-I've been putting things aside when I find a good buy! Now I just need a bigger closet to store it all in-Maybe this Condo is a blessing!!! I need to control myself.

Well, our little man is quickly approaching 4 months. I need to set up his wellness appointment. I know you are all making bets to see what percentage he will be for height this time!
He is getting big so fast. He's been rolling over for awhile. At first it was out of anger! And only once in awhile. Now he's getting the hang of it!!! And rolls over all the time.

I hope all the kids are getting the swing of school-And getting good grades! I'll be asking your parents soon! Be good and behave!

She Misses Me!

Here's Bella Jean...I know she misses me!

Are you kidding me?

I need some help before I lose my mind. Let me rewind a little bit. My neighbor has been having some issues holding a job. He's had more the past year or so then I have had my hole life including the radom babysitting jobs I had when I was a kid!
First there was an "Alfa Dog" in the office-His words, Not mine. Then there was the "military guy" that they didn't see eye to eye. Then there was they "young guy" and the "women" in the office. So needless to say he has issue with everyone except for other 60 yr old males.
Now that he is bored and home and collecting unemployment he has been watering the plants in front of the condo. Okay, he's not only watering the plants he sprays my windows every time. I want to scream. Josh's suggestion is for me to get the hose and water the plants and spray up to his windows!
I know I wanted to pound on the window and give him the cut throat gesture like my dad would. But Cole was sleeping. So he lucked out. And it's not the first time. I just keep thinking-"Are you kidding me?" To give you a full picture we have a lawn service that the condo association supplies. So he's just bored!!! Help! how can I tell him to stop and not rub my neighbor the wrong way? Any suggestions?

Long Weekend

I can't believe summer is over-What happened to it? It went by so fast. As much as I love summer, I always love the fall! When you can wear shorts and a hooded sweatshirt (one of my favorite outfits). The sun feels so warm. Ahhh... I love the fall! College football games start. The smell of burnt leaves... just too many things to list!

The past few days I have been puppy sitting Bella. She is spoiled rotten and is very needy. I wanted to kill her a few times. First her flaws: She does this ear flap thing-so loud she wakes up Cole. She barks/yaps and is snottie-pa-tootie. She is smothered with love and gets way too many dog treats and snorts because she is overweight...I could keep going but then it would sound like I don't love her. But after all that she has a super cute face and really all her flaws aren't her fault. She doesn't spend much time with people or any other dogs so it's sort of sad.

I worry about her the more active Cole gets. There's just not enough me to go around. Only a few more days and her owners will be back from Paris. Poor Bella or Poor Me???

To add to my Bella issues. She hates bikes, she's an awful walker, and isn't friendly at all to people or other dogs. So bringing her out around our house just doesn't really work! To top it off Ju-Ju pissed on her because she walked right it in. So Bella got a bath... Breath-only a few more days. I almost forgot, poor Ju-Ju has an ear infection.

Josh and I were able to grill out, run some errands, and managed to spend the day by the pool with Cole. I wish we had a few more long weekends. As this year comes to an end (fast) our calendar doesn't have much room. I have all these colored boxes. Josh will be in and out and Cole, Ju-Ju and I may hit the road again so we can visit him.

Hope everyone had fun this past long weekend!
