To SLEEP or SWEEP???

So lately I have been soooo crazy tired during the day, then all of a sudden at night get a quick burst of energy. I think baby girl is getting me ready for some long nights! Anywho last night I couldn't sleep and just kept thinking I needed to sweep the kitchen. Well I decided to I better rest and everything else could just wait so I went in the bathroom to get ready for bed....of course I found a million things to do in there so I couldn’t sleep. When I did finally did get to bed I woke up in the middle of night several times (as is the current trend), and every time I woke up I would think of these silly rhymes and so here I am at at 5am jotting them down cuz they make me laugh...AND I can't go back to sleep! Please tell me she is not going to be an early riser!

OH, and before you read just know that I LOVE my son and hubby. Preggo hormones got the better of me while I was jotting this down though. (Laughs and Smiles)

To Sleep or Sweep...

I did not sleep,
nor did I sweep.

Instead went into the bathroom and noticed the UN-keep.
I sighed and got to work...laundry piled in a heap.

And then to my sad demise...
I got more than just one surprise.

More than just stinky sweaty socks on the floor,
I found sticky toothpaste on the door.

A wet carpet that had seen the wrath
of a little boy with boats in the bath.

Little sprinkles all over the seat,
Oh BOY wasn't that neat!

Little razor shavings all over the sink,
Can't look in the shower...I hate to even think.

So this tired mamma just has to say
a little prayer for today...

Thank you Lord for the sanity of ME
that this next one is a SHE!

P.S. To McRockster and my McMan...You know I love YOU!

South Florida Fair

Spent the day at the South Florida Fair. We had so much fun. Mac was really into everything this year. Especiall the animals. We went wtith some good friends that have triplet boys. McCoy loves hanging out with "the brothers."

FEEDING TIME

MCCOY'S FAVORITE THING AT THE FAIR...PIG RACING! THIS IS ONE OF THE GIANT POT BELLIED PIGS. THEY WERE ACTUALLY HILLARIOUS! WE LOVED IT!
CHILLIN' WITH MY PEEPS.,,MCCOY AND CARTER
THE ONLY RIDE MCCOY WOULD GET ON...THE BABY BOATS. MAYBE NEXT YEAR WE WILL MOVE UP TO KIDDIE RIDES.
THE THIRD TIME THROUGH THE FUN HOUSE AND STILL SMILING
WHAT LITTLE BOY DOESNT LOVE MONSTER TRUCKS
DIGGING THE BABY MONSTER TRUCK

The other Mouse House...

What do we do when there is no school? Head to Chuck E. Cheese with our friends! McCoy and his little school buddies had a great day today at the mouse house. I am wiped but he is still on cloud nine. What a fun exciting place for a little one.





I asked Mac if he was excited to see Chuck E. Cheese and he said, "Yes mom, I was excited but you know that is not the real Chuck E. That is just a costume. But the guy inside was still nice." Thats my little man, to smart for his own good. I am going to be so sad because he is going to be one of those kids who figures out Santa Clause way to early. :(

Ringing in the New Year!

McCoy stayed up with us last night to ring in the New year. We lit sparklers and snapped the Pop-its on the ground. McCoy has always been terrified of fireworks so we didn't know what to expect but to our surprise he actually enjoyed the sparklers and he even stayed outside with us to watch the neighbors firework display. He was pretty proud of himself and as he puts it, "I'm not even afraid anymore, it's like I'm getting bigger and not scared." We watched the ball drop and dolled out the kisses. McCoy grabbed Glade and each by the neck, kissed on the cheek and then leaned down and kissed my belly because he wanted to give his sister a kiss too. Then we went to call Nana and Pops to wish them Happy New Year and as I explained to Mac that it wasn't New Years in Idaho yet, McCoy lit up and that was the first thing he said when he got on the phone..."Happy New Years but its not YOUR New Years yet it's just OUR New Years!" Little stinker.

Today we had our good luck New Years Pork Dinner (BBQ Pulled Pork), black eyed peas and this year I even tried mixed greens because they are also suppose to bring in good luck. We had some wonderful friends come over and share our first dinner of 2010 with us. They have the 3 cutest little boys and McCoy just had a blast playing guns and swords and light sabers and just being boys. The four of them even put on a concert for us complete with four guitars and microphones and speakers. You haven't lived until you have heard four 4year olds put on a Rock Concert. They were all singing different songs at the same time and screaming every verse. It was pretty entertaining.

Good food and good friends. What a wonderful start to the New Year!
