Dishes Rant

Calling all friends. I was standing at the sink doing my least favorite thing in almost the whole world....washing beaters! I don't know why but I absolutely HATE washing beaters. Like with a passion, will put them int he dishwasher and not make anything with them till it is run, make my mom wash them for me, kind of HATE. The other thing on my list, colanders! I hate washing colanders. They always get pasta gunk stuck in the slots, especially the wire kind. HATE IT.

I know Colleen has a certain aversion to this particular pitcher that we own, not sure why, just does. My mom HATES washing unfinished wood cutting boards.

So I ask, what is everyone's -steer clear list of washing- dish, item, or utensil?

100th Post

HAHA. Not sure that this is anything special, just thought I would mention it and give some super cute pictures for the occasion.

Still Smiling

So in case you haven't noticed, I have sort of dropped off the blogging a little in the past while. This is due mostly to the fact that until recently I had a baby in arms pretty much 15 hours a day! But also due to the fact that no one seems to care a lick whether or not I post anything at all. I get it, who really cares about the things my kid does on a daily basis or the ridiculous amount of pictures a photography mom take right?

Well this one is actually a comment worthy entry and one I am still smiling about. My cousin Nathan Hunt came into town for a convention and was staying the night with us last night. He came in time for dinner and Audrey was sitting next to him at the table. She was doing that little toddler thing where she is repeating something like a hundred times till she gets acknowledged.She was talking to Nathan trying to get his attention. I was vaguely listening as mothers always are when they are trying to do three things at once, until I honed in to what she was saying. Thank goodness she repeats herself time and time again because sometimes you need that because you ask yourself, "did she really just say that? What she was saying was, “Prophet, prophet I poop” HAHAHAHAHAHA.

She was saying that to Nathan, I guess she thought he looked like the prophet. He was wearing a white shirt and tie so that is the only thing I can think. She has this reverence book that she loves to read with a picture of a man in a tie that is supposed to be the prophet on the tv for conference. So I guess she translated the two to mean the same thing. I don’t know but it was hilarious. She says, “I pooped” when she passes gas! Hehe. Not sure why she felt the need to share that with the ‘prophet’ but she did. SO FUNNY!

New Blog

Alright alright, I have been sucked in to the blogging world and have seen all the CRAZY things people's brains come up with.

I have started a blog to keep track of all the decorating ideas, things to make, and ideas to remember for ONE DAY. So if you care to look, there are some cute things on here

The BEST revamp of all time.

Calling one and all for those of us who HATE trying to think of ideas to make a room look cohesive with stuff that DOESN'T! This is maybe one of the best ideas ever.



From the lovely ladies at Drab to Fab.

LOVE IT

Beverly Glen Biggest Winner

So my ward relief society is hosting a little biggest winners challenge. It is not just to loose weight but to be better all around. You gets points for pounds lost, but mostly for doing healthy and spiritual things; ie: drinking all the water you should, eating fruits and vegetables, saying prayers, reading scriptures, getting enough sleep etc. I thought since I have some extra pregnancy weight to shed this would be an extra little incentive.

We just finished week four. And seeing as me and my kids were sick for almost two weeks of that I think I did ok. Total lost: 5 lbs so far! We are finally all healthy and I have found my newly determined stamina again to get back to the working out and healthy parts of this a little better. Wish me luck! I hope to be smoking hot again by summer!
