1 more day...

One more day and we are off. Granted now we are having some dr appt's during spring break, but still it is spring break. Yesterday we got a call from the bank fraud dept. Someone had taken my card number and tried to buy a 1600 dollar plane ticket!! Luckily they noticed my usual purchases are at target and kroger : ) So they cancelled my card. Good eye on the bank though! Monkey is saying now it was a terrorist, and it's good they caught them. What a world we live in, at 10 i was not thinking of terrorist. Sad...
I did make him laugh so hard this morning. Sometimes i am not embaressing to him now. Yesterday i had lunch with him at school, and a neighbor was having lunch with her daughter. Well, she looked like a hot mama! She had on black spikey heels, black leggings, a little tunic top with a black patent belt. Needless to say i felt a little frumpy in what i thought was my super cute new boyfriend jeans and nautical striped gap top. So i asked monkey, do you ever wish i was a hip dresser like that? His answer was well sometimes, why do you always wear flip-flops? He then proceeded to tell me i should get some cool skater shoes. Funny, i guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Note to self, i need some vans to be cool for him :)
But back to my funny... He tells me the bone right here on the elbow is weenus. Oddly enough, i ggoogled it and it's int he urban dictionary. That the tween set use it. Strange. Anyway, i guess i shouldn't encourage it. But i couldn't resist, so he said it when he was getting out of the car. So i said to him "make sure your weenus is covered!". Oh my gosh, that beautiful smile and he laughed so hard! He was waliking off giggling. Then he must of told his friend because they both looked back cracking up.
Hope i don't get a call from the school on this one!!
p.s. Make sure your weenus is covered!!

2 more days..

2 more days until spring break!!! The kids are getting so tired, so the break is well needed. We have been debating on going on a little adventure of our own. Some friends offered us a place to stay and to go to some amusement parks. I'm debating, but the idea of hanging around the house and relaxing sounds pretty appealing.
Midget had her first of 3 big dental appts. She had a rough time, but is doing good. 2 more to go. Poor little girl. Monkey boy has been moving along in school, and is waiting for the break to start. I hope it doesn't rain the whole time.
We sent dad a care package in the mail, can't wait for him to get it. The kids had something made for him. We all miss him so much. Passing his tests was a great beginings to all kinds of things. My little microsoft guru :)

Testing...

Ah, trying days. Tomorrow my sweet little midget is going to get some dental stuff done. She's not going to like it at all. Hopefully it goes well, it may be harder on me than her. Her dentist is awesome, he even sent her a pic with the two of them, saying he's looking forward to seeing her tomorrow. Who does that? How awesome is he? And, they have a talking mirrow, and you get balloons. Do you think they have a chair in my size???
Hopefully the hubster has taken his test, and passed with flying colors. Last i heard this afternoon was the testing facility was working the middle eastern way, and enshalla he was going to get to take it after dinner. Love the enshalla way of life, i miss that ;)
Well, the sweet little midget i was speaking of earlier, is now terrorizing her brother. That won't end well.....

fun fun fun

We had alot of fun this weekend. Dad's friend and his family came over. the boys had tons of fun on their bikes and skateboards. And when i say boys, i mean, the 5, 10 and over 39 yr old kind ;) Monkey thought it was the coolest that John skates too. So he is the cool one now...
We went to eat at our favorite local pizza spot, midget loves to go there because you can make your own pizza. She has learned to make pizza's from her grandparents, so she is a pro. She loves Stephanie because she is a girly girl, and likes tea parties and makeup. I like her because she gets the monogramming obsession :) We had lots of fun spending time with them. Monkey tried to pry stories out of John about dad in his youth, to no avail...
We spent most of today getting the garden ready. John brought some seeds to help things along. So cross your fingers it will grow lots of good stuff this year!!!
Here is a video of monkey doing a wheat grass shot at jamba juice... yuck!! He got a mango drink with extra boosts of vitamin b and C. He thinks his vision and energy is vastly improved :)
p.s. he shot the video of the guys for his dad..so here it is!

T.G.I.F.

Yea, it's friday!! We are going to go see the new Alice in Wonderland this weekend. I'm hoping it isn't too freaky for the midget. I don't think it will be, but it is Tim Burton :) We've got the garden bed ready, so now we need to go get the plants. We can't wait, the kids love to plant and work in the garden. It will give us something good to do together. Monkey is still grounded, and may be until the end of time... It's good though, he's drawing and doing some other things.
I am seeing 10 is a hard age to be i think. Not quite old enough to do some things, and too old to do others. Poor little guy..
But i am standing firm, even though he is trying his hardest to break me, and he knows i am a pushover :) Those big blue eyes are hard to say no to!
So we did go see Alice, and it was Amazing!!! Such a good movie. Even midget loved it. Of course, her recital this year is going to be Alice in Wonderland, so she is obssesing with all things Alice. Monkey loved it too, and it's hard to find a move they both love. Thumbs up from us!!

funny..

I think these are just hilarious.. Besides, it's got Edward. Not that i am one of those creepy obssesed twilight moms, of course not.

11 days

11 more days until spring break! Thank goodness.. These kids are getting harder and harder to get up. The dreaded taks test is coming up, so the brainwashing has begun. Pep rallies, sports stars, all coming to cheer them on. The kids who are doing well, are bored to tears. I hate this test... It is unfair for the kids like monkey, who are having to sit through it all year. They should find a way for those kids to test out of it. It's made up for the kids to know the bare minimum, well he knows far more. So how out of 34 kids will they all go to the same level? Oh well, that's my rant.
So, the kids have started the countdown for school to get out. June 3.... Midget says she loves the summer, so she can sleep late.
p.s. That's 7:30 BTW :)
