We have a roof!

The workers finished the roof on Friday night!

These pictures were taken before the roof was finished, but I forgot to take more.

Where has the year gone?

Is Megaman really a year old? The calendar says so, so it must be true. My mom flew in for the festivities, thanks Mom! When we sang to him, he thought we had all lost our marbles. The movie file was too big to include it, but after he took a bite of the cupcake he said. "Yum!" Hilarious.


He LOVES balls, so he got a lot of new ones for his birthday.

Since my mom was in town, Doctor and I took advantage of free babysitting. When we got back, this is what we found. You can't tell in the picture, but he had a ball in each hand.

Happy Birthday Megaman!!!!

A few of my favorite moms........

I have been so blessed by so many amazing mothers! Words cannot express how grateful I am for all of them. Most of all, my mother. I couldn't possibly list all of the sacrifices she has made on my behalf. It is so hard to be so far away from her, thank goodness for unlimited long distance!!! I can't wait until Wednesday! :)

Happy Mother's Day!

I was spoiled this weekend, mostly because Doctor was able to come home for the weekend. Hooray! When I opened my closet to get dressed, I found this beautiful dress hanging in the closet. He bought the necklace, too. What a guy, huh?
Dude started to make this awesome lego creation but only had time for the "happy."

The girls made me cute cards. All in all it was a great day. I hope all women everywhere had a wonderful day as well.

We just need a roof now!

Anyone missing some chocolate?

Megaman found it. This is how I found him after taking a bathroom break.

Happy May Day!

The kids and I made May baskets. I don't have a crafty bone in my body, so I'm pretty impressed with the final result. Princess collects the landscaping catalogs that Doctor gets in the mail. When we used them to cut out flower pictures she announced, "You all need to say thank you to me for letting you use my pictures." So, thank you Princess. :) We had fun making them and even more delivering them. Watching the kids try to be stealthy was hilarious. I wish I had a video camera with me to capture it. Dude told me he learned his sneaky skills in Ninja class.

More house pics!

They framed some of the upstairs today, hooray!

Mystery Solved

If you were curious about the origins of the "swine flu", wonder no more.
If asked to do something she'd rather not, my dear mother is often heard saying, "I'd rather kiss a pig with the flu." Now, I admit that I didn't ever realize as a child that pigs really got the flu. Well, we all know now that they do. Now, her referring to smooching sick oinkers isn't the only incriminating evidence. She also traveled to.....gasp.....Mexico recently. Say it isn't so!!! Is it possible that during her vacation she was asked to do something she didn't find appealing? Could she have actually chosen to kiss a pig with the flu? Well, I'll leave that to you to decide. By the way, did I mention she suffered all last week with a terrible sore throat? :)

House pics for Dad

Sorry for the picture over load, I'm just trying to let Doctor see what the house currently looks like. :)
