My reason for being busy!

An updated picture of my boys. Ayden just turned 6 months and Angel will be 3 in May. Notice my almost 3 year old just had to have his Reese cup in the picture with him!



Here's a picture of us taking advantage of the nice weather yesterday at the Imagination Station by our house.

One for us moms!

I found this article on one of my parenting forums that I belong to and could not believe how perfectly written it is! In the article there is the argument that us moms "embellish" how busy we are during the day and how we "claim" that we are too busy to take just 5 or 10 minutes to call or email friends to keep in touch, when friends who are "kidless" (yes i made that word up) live just as busy lives as either SAHM's or moms who work out of the house and then come home to their children. The next time you are wondering why you haven't heard from your friend who has one or more children think of this article. I realize you can't view the whole thing on my page because it's too large, but if you click it you will be directed to my photobucket where you can see it in its entirety. Please read and be enlightened.

Isn't it ironic, don't you think?

So I was leaving work a few days ago and I was picking up Mcdonalds which has become my son's favorite thing to eat, and the most ironic scene unfolded right before my eyes. There was a man in front of me driving a brand new Toyota Prius. You know the "electric hybrid vehicles" that are supposed to use less gas and be better for the environment. Anyway so this guy is waiting for his food at the window and he proceeds to hang his hand out while holding a plastic juice bottle. At first I thought he was going to wait for the Mcdonald's worker to open the window and he was going to ask her to throw it away for him. Apparently she was either taking too long to respond to him, or his plan was different than I though all along. This guy had the plastic bottle dangling from his hand for about a minute and then proceeded to just drop it on the ground, as if it was nothing. HELLO! Your driving an eco-friendly car and you're going to litter! What's the point? I just had to share this story because I thought it was hilarious! And that my friends is what we call irony.
