A day to remember

Today the snow really came down. Nate told me I better shovel the snow before he got home. (I guess he thought it is my turn to shovel.) So I thought, this will be fun for Connelly to get his first taste of the snow. He didn't like it at all when I sat him down in the actual snow, but he did okay if I was holding him or if I put him in the stroller. I put him in the stroller and did our drive way. Then I decided to be an over achiever for once in my life and did the next two neighbor's drive ways too. Connelly and I had a blast. He loved watching me work and sing Christmas songs to him. Daxton and Connor, my two nephews, came out to help me shovel snow too. Daxton loved my snow shovel and asked "Where did you get it?" in a way that only Daxton can say. Kind of in a snide way. I told him Walmart and he could get one too. He actually really did help once he had a good snow shovel.
The next two things are the stories that I really want to remember. Once I came in from shoveling snow, Connelly of course had a really runny and buggery nose. I got the blue snot sucker upper. You know the one they give you from the hospital. I had been using it a lot and didn't think about maybe blowing it out with all the snot that I have been collecting. Well, I went to press the bulb end in and it would depress in. I then pushed REALLY HARD and sure enough it pressed inward but at Connelly's expense. The reason it wouldn't decompress is because it was full of his snot and once I pushed hard enough, yep you got it, all that snot came out finally and into Connelly's hair. LOL!!!
The other thing that I want to remember, right after the burger attack, I thought I'll check Connelly for a dirty diaper. So like so many times before, I raise his cute little bum up to my face, clothes on of course, just to give the sniff test first. Right as I'm sniffing, Connelly farts. Yes, he farted right in his mommy's face. What a kid!!!!

Bad decision

So I wax. Do you? What do you wax? Well, I wax my body, well my eyebrows and girly mustache, not those other body parts they do in "Brazil." Any who..... Today was the day. I hadn't waxed in FOREVER and so I decided I'd take a stab at it. I have been doing my own waxing since I got married, I use to live with this wonderful girl, Jamie, and she was a professional, but I got it free. The friendly roommate discount. She did great. She would spend a good 20 min. or more and wax, pluck, and make me a new girl with definition on the brow line. Well, at first I was horrible and took forever. However, through the years and trials, I have gotten better....UNTIL today. I decided to do it at the wrong time and that was the start of a horrible ending to this sad story. Why was the timing wrong you ask? Well, Connelly was awake and getting into, on, around, and breaking EVERYTHING he could find in the bathroom. (Basically, he was eating my tampons and opening up maxi pads one by

Found a home

Bell has found a new home. After I put her up for FREE on ksl.com, I got a ton of calls. The first little old lady that came to look at her snatched her right up. I was really surprised because Bell snapped at her right off, but I guess things are going well now. The lady called me later in the day, and said, "thank you, thank you. Bell is the dog I've waited for my whole life." She said that Bell just followed her around all day and the neighborhood kids love her. I'm so relieved.
