It's Friday

The wee one is trying to walk!!!

collins. if you didn't know. He's standing up and trying to walk around the couch.

;( 

not going to happen!! he's supposed to stay little forever.

anyway..

Cooper hates school. Ugh already. 

postitive note though I got this app igotta or ibotta ha i can't remember you get money back for purchases. so like using  a coupon but not so annoying and time consuming. 

You look on the app before going to the store and see what you can buy and get money back on. Cool thing is you can get any brand bread, milk, veggies, fruits. it's not just one brand. To try it out I went to walgreens and bought a Food network Magazine and got 1.50 back haha not much but it was so fun. Also you can get money back from online stores as well. 

IF you want to make some money not real fast but don't want to have a yard sale. Ebay and KSL. I have put my bed, dresser, cloth diapers, baby stuff, my shirts. Than I print off the shipping label and have keep a stack of shipping envelopes at my house. super easy. you can get on usps.com and have them pick it up at your house. or you drop it off in the blue box. 

Also i tried Cheeseburger Soup for the first time tonight. delicious. http://www.familyfreshmeals.com/2013/03/crockpot-bacon-cheeseburger-soup.html

here is the link. (skipped the carrots.) 

Sunday we are doing brunch at my grandmas i'm going to try.. mango coconut topping on cheesecakes. & chunky mango gaucamole. pics and recepies coming soon. 

haha mommas sweet boy 

saturday comes after friday

We love Saturday nights at our house. Garth is usually home. we get to watch the movies we've been saving all week. BIg Hero 6 (sign up for the Disney Movie Club). We usually get Cafe Rio for some reason haha but tonight we did crepes. or my grandpa called them roll ups growing up. heres the reciepe.

we messed the first two up and they were still amazing to eat. even picky butt cooper ate two. with nutella of course. i made the filling in the receipe and it was amazing as well, i put chopped strawberrys in it. 

so ive been watching shark tank its on hulu. There are some really cool things on there. Luminaid is one im going to use in my chirstmas boxes i do for the samaratians purse. I bought neatcheeks. pipcorn (mini popcorn with flavors) my grandma will love it. But neetcheaks I am so amazed by these. They have a IG account and a website. I paid 18.00 for 6 packs. they are flavored stevia face wipes for kids. My boys get so dirty somehow even after we leave the house in the car. 

one more..

well i just read Wild and it was awesome. The movie wasn't as good but it was still really good. Reese Witherspoon amazing!! I love the whole concept of walking over a 1000 miles to prove to yourself you are not a POS. I told Garth I wanted to do the ACT it's from like New Hampshire to Maine yeah that may of been totally wrong but haha it's not in the desert. 

Collins had his first Easter. It was so much fun. We went on a picnic with the family. 

Cooper had so much fun in the dirt all day. He got so tan. 

Collins played in his walker and took a nap.

Seeing Cooper on Easter is the best thing ever he gets so excited. He loves looking for eggs. 

Collins is turning into a daddys boy. He had so much fun on his fourwheeler ride.

the Easter bunny brought Cooper a playhouse by little tikes. He doesnt love it i thought he would so we decided to make his wishes come true and buy him a motorcycle! 

I found one on KSL garth drove to Morgan and got it. He loves it. I was so nervous. Cooper is so small he's only 29lbs. but I couldn't let that take him away from getting something he's always wanted. We put some trainers on him and off he went. He was fast. Scared me to death. He wanted to go over all the jumps. He than crashed when his training wheel hit the sidewalk ugh. I than spent $306 on a helmet, pants, shirt, chest protector, kneck brace, gloves. haha he's ready to ride like a demon!! 

it has been forever

well let's see..

Collins my sweet baby is now 7 months.

he crawls, he jabbers, he sits up, he eats food, he just fell over haha oh and he sticks everything in his mouth. 

where does times go?? im glad he is learning new things because i can't wrap my mind around him being so big!! 

Cooper is going to Kindergarten in September. ugh haha i will soon be a old woman. 

On a side note... i'm tired of all these blogs and articles about woman who choose their kids over their husbands, like in what world is that wrong?? I had these babies I grew them in me for 9 months. I love my husband very much. I've been his girl for almost 10 years! but to say i would choose him over my boys... thats obsurd. okay momma and daddy time (sex) has been put on the back burner times before. but I still feel the same love i had for him when i was 15. i get butterflys when i see him come home. I don't see us growing apart because I let my boys sleep with us. I don't see us divorcing because we don't have sex 7 time a week. I see us growing old together and I see us taking trips together when our boys go to college. I see us alone in our house when we have no more kids in the house. we just have 18 years or maybe more (stay at home sons) to get threw to rasie our boys right. Everything takes time. Now lets quit acting like marriage is so hard that living with someone is so hard. Put your anger and your comments on paper or take it to a friend. Not everything has to be a challenge. 

My grandparents have been together for 54 years. My grandpa is a pain in the ass, he's judgemental, he's rude, makes awful comments about people, but my grandma stayed with him. There were times she said that she should have left him but she made a vow in front of God. and she's sticking with it. 

So speak up tell your spouse about your problems. Tell him or her about your feelings. Tell them that something they did hurt your feelings. How are they supposed to know if you dont say anything. 

hahah that is as good as it gets for pics. 

Christmas with kiddos

I'm It's fun, exciting, etc etc

But expensive as well... 

I really need to stop buying cooper "things" at the store during the year he might actually want something at Christmas time. Now that he's older and a big brother we are starting a new tradition of; want, need, wear, read. He wants every Xbox game in the world!! But so does his dad. He loves toys like action figures but only for like a week.. Or they lost. He loves guns!!! Like love love loves but he has 26 😣 it was rough this year. So for his want he got a Nerf zombie slayer cross bow {loves Darryl and walking dead} it looks real fun so I went ahead and bought my nephew one to! {NEED} he needs to leave my kindle alone haha so I got him a iPad mini 3. {Don't know what the 3 stands for but} cellular + wifi perfect for him he's obbssed with YouTube so now he can throw his cute little frog head phones and watch it in the car. Target I'm here to tell you get that app you will love looking and buying while your up at 12 am feeding your fat boy. {WEAR} he gets clothes all year so it's not like he's hurting and he doesn't demand clothes YET so I got him biz and woody pjs from target and than in the book orders this month they had gifts with books. So I bought him llama llama books so cute btw and an elf book with a elf. Ordered the cutest Santa sacks from IG with his name on it. One for Collins to. Collins also gets clothes all year and he can't demand anything yet. So he got mud pie jammies and a touch n feel book teething toys and a play mat 

        THESE ARE THE SACKS 

November- my favorite

It could be that it's my birthday month! 

At 24 I still love my birthday. Cake and dinner presents. My hubby and kiddos buy me the best cards ha. This year we are going to mesquite as a family to watch my nephew play football. I love slot machines and my family! So what better way to celebrate. {early}

I took it upon myself to buy me some gifts. I had no idea the boutiques you could shop from on IG. My favorite has to be sevencoboutique ❤️❤️

I love flannel oh my word it's so cute!! Plus this has a hood sooo score! And that sweater is too cute with leggings. Plus we have a ulta now and I go there oh once a week 😳😊 your birthday month you get double reward points. So why not Christmas shop! 

OCC and Christmas

It's so that time. But this is not a detailed post about Christmas but more operations Christmas child. I found the idea on Pinterest and immediately fell in love. Helping children get small meaningful Christmas presents. Yes!! I found 15 shoe boxes and went cray at the Walgreens discount section. Why Walgreens and not the dollar store. Wellll these kids will use these items for along time and probably multiple times!! Why buy them junk. Quality not quantity!! I've always lived that way. So I bought boys 2/4 and 10/14 age groups. Tool sets and soccer balls with pumps. More pictures as I go.
