Picture Overload!

Keaton, why is Benjamin crying? (for the record - K did nothing to B. B was upset that I left his sight for 30 seconds to go get K out of his crib when he woke up from his nap...ahem - mama's boy...) ;-)

Here's the 'meal' Keaton made for me one afternoon :)

Seconds after 'pee pee on the potty'...I've been meaning to update: Since this happening, K won't go near the kid pot! haha! He'll still go into the bathroom, but he has NO desire to sit on it!! YAY!
Whenever Benjamin takes a bottle and he's super tired, he starts rubbing his head, it is so sweet :)

Ok....and how did you do this, Keaton? WHY did you do this?

Keaton had a bowl of cereal for breakfast the other morning, it went great! He loved it!

Wait - Mommy wants me to go where to college?! (Though from his PJs, you'd think I'd have some Crimson Tide thoughts...)
There's my 'lil' sugar lump in all his glory! :) I want to pinch every, chunky roll!
Even though it had only been about 6 weeks or so since K's last hair cut, he had to tilt his head back to see anything...to me, that meant he needed another hair cut. Since it was my birthday, I wasn't going to deal with it! I sent Zach (and his parents!) to do the dirty work (apparently, afterwards, Keaton was glaring at Zach from the backseat!) He HATES getting his hair cut (he doesn't have the cape on because it scares him...)(sorry for the blur!) But now he can see!!!!

And that was our New Years/Birthday weekend! :)

Nothing Like Waiting til the Last Minute

As you know (or have learned) I love college football. I'm in a yahoo pick 'em group with a dear friend, her husband and a bunch of other people. I'm currently tied for 3rd place and, if you asked Zach, rather prideful of this position :)

As you may also recall, my laptop has been sent away to be fixed (not "Bob Barker" fixed...repaired!) so I'm having to use Zach's.

My laptop had all my important bookmarks across the top - kellymom, my chiro, my pedi (not linking these for privacy reasons!), craigslist and {busy mommy} to name a few. Well, also in that toolbar was the simple letters "YFB" - Yahoo! Football...my reminder to make my picks each week.

Normally these picks need to be made by 12noon, Thursday. 9 times out of 10, this is the deadline.

I'm talking to my mom and we're talking about football...then I remembered - MY PICKS!!!!!!! I did not make my picks this week!!

I can't breathe, I'm almost in tears as I'm frantically trying to remember my password remember - I have it bookmarked for easy access!!) I remember and I scroll to week 14...what do I see?

Deadline: Friday Dec. 5, 2008; 7:55pm...

What time is it??? 7:46pm!!!!

aggggggghhh

I've never clicked my picks so quickly!

My mom commented that I was taking my sports too seriously...but I'm tied for 3rd place!!!! Missing this week would have ruined that!

Now... Roll Tide! :)

How to make your mama proud!

Atleast how Keaton does it anyways...

This mama is a huge football fan, particularly, college football. I am a die hard UVA & UNC fan, however, there are other teams that I really enjoy watching, one of those being Alabama. Yesterday, was an AMAZING game versus Auburn (where Auburn didn't score a single point...wonderfulness!!!) So, what would any mother teach her son? How to say "Roll Tide", of course! K doesn't have it down perfect, but there's a destinct "oll ide"to it! And if nothing else, if I say, "Roll Tide!" He throws his arms in the air and says, "YAY!" haha!!! (For my MTSU'rs, we're working on "Go Big Blue") ;-)

I made chili again today and the weather finally coorporated with me! It was so cold and rainy and yucky - perfect chili weather! Keaton made me proud once again, by saying "yummy yummy" after most bites. He impressed us with "Bean" and pointing to beans! And calling his spoon a speen - close enough (Roll tide!)

I have also, gasp!, decorated for Christmas!!! I even did this....before Thanksgiving Day! I guess to make up for the fact that we have done absolutely NO Christmas shopping! haha

I think that's the news from here...

Finally, some long awaited pictures :)

"Hello" from B! Check out the thighs! ;-)
