Not to be confused with the Wine Company (which I have yet to try)

I never thought I would be a blogger but I'm glad I tried it out. It took sometime to get used to it and now I can't stop. This is about the day to day excitements of being a mom, wife, daughter, friend, or just a plain woman doing her thing.

**On the phone with my mom. Spencer calls Twice. I get done talking to mom & call Spencer back**
Me: Yes?, you called?
Spencer: No, I didn't
Me: Yes, you did
Spencer: No, I don't think so
Me: Yes you did, twice, I was on the phone with my mother
Spencer: Ooooo, yeah, that's why you didn't answer

*eye roll* (like he can see...lol)

**Tells me something he could've texted, then says he has to go**

Yup, soo important he had to call twice....

Power Rangers Go!

The last few months Hayden has learned how to use the Xbox well enough that he now knows how to operate Netflix. He usually watches an episode, or movie several times a day. So this past 2 weeks Hayden has taken on a new favorite. Power Rangers. Not the new 13 different versions but the old school ones, the original . The ones that I grew up on. Especially the movie. It's so cute because now he's jumping around the living room fighting imaginary monsters that the Evil Rita has sent down. Like they are in the living room. He's even taken a used firework, a straw, and a door spring and has built himself a Power Ranger Sword. I just love the imagination of a 3 year old. I know that I was his age once I did weird stuff like that, but I would just love to know what he's thinking sometimes. (well half the time I find out...lol)

Mommy & Hayden Time

Yesterday I took Hayden to Jambbas Ranch Tour. Phew! It was a good walk but it was soo much fun & Hayden had a blast. Good thing I went the day before I got some new tennis shoes (for a different reason), and I'm glad that went so early in the day before the heat set in. I haven't been to one of these things in forever & the one in Houston that I went to when I was little has gone down hill. But anywho....

When we got there, paid admission & bought a bucket of bread. We first went through it seeing a Tortoise & then a Pig (which Hayden told me on the way that he wanted to see a pig, I think he got his wish.) Lots of goats at every turn, A miniature horse, and a regular. And with my experience with Horses I showed Hayden how to feed them. By holding out your hand, making sure your fingers are next to each other, and letting them eat out of your palm. He thought that was the coolest thing since Ice Cream.


We saw some Peacocks, a bunch of ducks, quail, a donkey and some deer. We then started to continue down the path to view the alligator that didn't want to come out, which I don't blame him since the sun was out. Before we were able to do that, we were followed by the quail, geese & the ducks. I made a video of it, and is on my Facebook if you would like to view it. I may add it later. Hayden thought that was cool, but made me feel like Mother Goose being followed like that. But I guess that's what I get for carrying a bucket of bread.
Then continued on to the more treed area. We passed by the Bison area which they were on the other side so couldn't get a good picture of them. Visited the Llama, and when I went up to feed it, I prayed "Please don't spit on me". LOL. We continued and got some scenic pictures, had some fun.



There was a tree vine on the path, and I saw this as an opportunity as some goofing off by swinging. Hayden attempted it, but it was too cute. Yes I was surprised that I didn't yell out a Tarzan yell. LOL. But I had fun, a for 5 seconds, I was no longer a mom, I was a trouble maker, an example to run around and be crazy.


Okay now I'm like terrified of heights. Not sure if because of the height or if it's a fear of falling. But, we got to this bridge that was a good distance above the ground, but surprisingly I wasn't afraid. It was really cool. So I took a couple more scenic pictures. As we were leaving for the last attractions more goats, and a Camel. I took a picture of the camel but he was to far away to tell that he was in the picture. Since we had some left over bread in the bucket and these ducks were waiting soo patiently, Hayden dumped the bucket upside down. And of course I took one more picture of the goats, and ......


.....I leave you with this. "Uh, duh ....."

POOP!!!

Okay so yesterday was supposed to be a cleaning/relaxation day. Well it started out that way, but slowly ended in disaster. But one thing I sooo didn't want to deal with that day. Thanks to my loving child thinking that I don't do enough during the day decided to ruin it. He had decided to fill his/guest bathroom's toilet with what looked like half a roll of toilet paper mixed in with poop. Now when I say it looked like half a roll I may have exaggerated but it was a lot of toilet paper. Enough toilet paper to leave the toilet useless to flush, with fear that if I did flush it even once it would leave the bathroom floor, possibly the hallway filled with nasty toilet water. Eventually causing me to implode into myself, before Spencer had a chance to even leave work to help.
Possible Result:


Sooooo......I left it for an hour to collect my thoughts on how I'm going to clean it. Because there was no, "just flushing it". I had to empty the wet, soggy, toilet paper, poop filled, wad....from the toilet that I had cleaned spotless the day before.
I ended up using my yellow cleaning gloves that I will be getting new one, a bucket with a plastic bag, and attempted not throwing up. Every second that I was in there, either looking, or even think about touching it, I was gagging. Not just because the poop was in there but for some stupid, odd reason I was gagging at the soggy, wet, toilet paper.
I can handle baby poop, dog poop, dog vomit, and sometimes other people vomit, and even some butt explosions that Hayden had produced when he was a baby, that they seem to produce out of no where..........but why is it that I can't handle wet, soggy, toilet paper. But I'm thinking about it now...I've always gagged at some of those wet napkins some restaurants give out. Odd I know

Okay so I've been MIA for a while

Last week I had my parents in. Their trip through the airports were interesting. They left from Hou-Hobby, but before they left they had to sit there for an extra 3-4 hours because the plane leaving from Atlanta had plane issues. BUT, the scheduled planes that were after my parents went before them. How that makes sense, no one knows. It should be first come first serve. Whatever, thankfully when they got to Atlanta they were able to get something to eat and then move onto the next flight here. They arrived later than expected (11pm) but got everyone to the house and then off to bed. (Mainly Hayden)

The next morning we took it a little slow but we got into my fathers rental care and drove to Myrtle Beach for a day. Wish we could have stayed longer. But it was nice to treat my parents to the real ocean instead of the nasty looking water at the Gulf. Hayden didn't really enjoy it that much. I don't think he really understood why the water was moving in that way. That was okay, we sat Grandma down and they built sand castles together. After that we went back to the hotel room cleaned up and went out to eat. Took the out to the Boulevard I think it's called. And ate at Laundry's. Yummy food. That night we threw Hayden in their hotel room while me & Spencer went next door and played some night Putt-Putt. It was a great date-night. Haven't had that in a while.

The rest of the week it was mainly relaxation for my parents while Spencer went to work. Went out to eat a lot, which I loved because I haven't done that in while. My dad was helped out with the yard, and got us a couple bags of Mulch, for the front flower bed. It's still a work in progress thing. I still need more flowers.



Also having my dad here we took advantage and he helped us Co-sign again. But this time on a Motorcycle for Spencer. We figured it would be cheaper for right now, to save money, cheaper on gas (since they are going up) and we couldn't afford a new car. At least for now, and I wanted my car back. The place we went to (which we drove forever to get to) worked out a deal for us. Since we were getting the bike for cost. We were able to get 2 helmets and a jacket FREE. I was like heck ya! So as you can see from the pictures, mine is Pink. lol And Spencer's is black/ green with skulls.





Now for today/this week I will be cleaning the house, organizing, and trying to get back to a routine. So much excitement for me! Weee!!



I also recommend checking out Cake It's from a fellow-blogger and I think this is just too funny! I was rolling.
