The Little Boy...

Today Roo was on my lap while I was blogging...he looked at the "Memories" post picture and said, "There are 2 girls and 2 boys in this picture." I explained to him how that was his mom..."No, that's a boy." So now I wonder...do I blame my mom for this?

Orange Pylons or Christmas Trees...

Sometimes I just want to go to my "scrapbooking" room and be by myself. But it never fails that the boys end up in there with me, under the table, on my lap, Roo saying "You're not listening to me...you're not listening to me...you're not listening to me.." So, one day I was sharing this with my sister and she said that I should get some of those construction orange pylons to put in the door. Then tell the boys that when the pylons are up, they cannot come in the room. Well, I went shopping the very next day (hate to forget a great idea!) and found some small orange pylons. I shared the big plan with the boys. So, the other day, I needed some "alone" time and thought I would try out the pylons. But, I couldn't find them. They were gone. Imagine that. So I go and find "Steve" to ask him what happened to the pylons. He showed me where they were and went on to explain how they make great Xmas trees for their stuffed animals. So much for that idea...next....

Memories...

My sister got photoshop elements for x-mas and has been playing around with it. She is the brave one ~ she opens up the box and just goes for it!! I, myself, will need to go to the bookstore, buy a book about photoshop and read up until I am even ready to open the box. I don't know ~ it may be just an excuse to go to the bookstore! Anyway, my sister sent this little number to me that she created on photoshop ~ I love it!! Yes, the "little boy" in the picture is me!

the other part of us...

These are the two little ones that I will be talking/posting/blogging about...they keep my life busy and interesting. The older one is 6. I asked him what he would like to be called on my blog..he thinks "Steve" might be a good name. (what??) The little one is three. We call him "Roo" because he is a busy-body. My mom just laughs and says, "Oh, he is a little you!" I always wonder why she has a little smirk on her face when she says that...

The Beginning...

OK - I finally have started or posted, my blog. This should be interesting...at this time, I am planing on writing about what is going on and what is happening in my life, because, honestly, it seems that there is always something going on or happening. Unfortunately, I've always imagined that my first blog would be a fascinating introduction to me and my family. Well, it's hard to be creative when the two "little" boys are laying on the floor beside you, thinking of words that start with the letter "d" and some are..well..you know.
