Not Me Monday...

It's Monday again which means it's time for Mckmama's blog carnival where I tell you all about the things I most certainly did not do this week. Hop on over to Mckmama's blog and check out what others are not doing as well!







  • I did not have a very short work week due to the holiday on Monday and a staff retreat on Wednesday. I also did not get WAY behind in my work because of it- no way, I am always on top of things at work!!

  • I did not make a pan of brownies just in time to sit and watch The Biggest Loser on TV. That would just be ridiculous. I also did not do that exact same thing last week when The Biggest Loser was on either!!! The brownies also did not taste good at all- nope, they didn't!

  • I was not late to church yesterday because Adalyn did not throw up all over both of us as I was getting her into the car- nope that would not be what happened to us yesterday. I then did not go in the house and change both of our clothes and head off to church anyway!

  • I did not get to go to the circus with my kids on Saturday and see the delight on their faces at all the wonderful sights. I did not have more fun watching them than I did the circus. I will not be posting pictures from the circus later today because well we did not go there.

Thanks for reading about what I absolutely did not do this weekend. Now head on over to Mckmama's blog and check out what other people are not doing!!

  • I did not have surgery last week so I did not have to stay home for 3 whole days from work. I also did not get really bored while being home alone because any sane person that has small children would probably enjoy the alone time, but not me, oh no!

  • I did not almost cry when Adalyn was begging me to pick her up and I couldn't because I didn't want to push myself too hard the day after my surgery.

  • I was not completely grateful for my husband this week when he took on all the household chores so I could rest and take care of myself.

  • I was not completely happy when we found out that Adalyn would NOT need tubes in her ears. I was not also happy that she was given medicine for allergies and after only one dose her runny nose had already stop running.

So now check out Mckmama's blog and see what other people have not done this week!

Surgery & BRRRRRR....

For those that don't already know, I had a minor surgery yesterday. It wasn't a big deal and I was in and out of the hospital in one day. I'm home now through the weekend to recover. I'm mostly tired but feeling ok.

In other news- it is freezing outside here today. I think the high is only going to be in the low 20's... that is cold for us Tennesseans!!! We will survive though and we are supposed to be back up in the 40's by this weekend.

Just wanted to give an update on what was going on here. I'll try to come up with a better post later.

The resourcefulness of a 4 year old...

So the other day I was picking up dirty laundry in Ethan's room when I came across something strange. I found about 10 pair of underwear all stacked inside one another, kind of like when you leave your underwear inside of your pants when you take them off (anyone with kids or a husband knows what I'm talking about!). So I ask Ethan what it was all about and he informs me that his new pants (you know the kind that have adjustable waists on them) are too big so he had to put on more underwear to keep them up! I told him next time to just let me know and I'll make the waist smaller.

Gotta love the resourcefulness of a 4 year old!

It's Eric's turn...

Well, I spent the New Year's weekend sick with strep throat. I'm feeling better now but Eric has caught something now. He was tested and doesn't have strep but he doesn't feel well at all and is running a fever... poor guy :(

Anyway, just wanted to share why there was a lack of posting here. I'll post more when our house is on the mend.
