Tootin Tuesday, on a Wednesday.

AHHHHH! i just finished the 4th Fablehaven book. Oh, my gosh. why do they make us wait to get the next one and leave us on such a cliffhanger. I loved the book, and hated it all at the same time. It all will depend on the 5th and final book whether it is all worth it or whether it sucks butt.








So for me I read a book, and I finished my Photo class. Here are my best shots from my final.







I also managed to catch a cold and develop a sinus infection and ear infection. YEAH FOR ME!.... it totally sucks.




NIck has accomplished a lot. He got a sinus infection too! HA HA!




Isaiah ate spaghetti for the 1st time ever. and LOVED IT!







Cami, my sister, her husband and baby moved back in this weekend. We now have 4 families living in one household. It's crazy! but i secretly like it a lot.




So tell me, what have you done this past week???

Can you believe how long it's been since i've posted? I've been such a blog slacker. Not on purpose though. I've been so busy. Like right now, i'm supposed to be getting ready for Isaiah's Dr.'s appointment. but I gotta catch up!



Anywho the letter this time around is F... dang it, it's not F. See how crazy everything is? i can't even remember the letter right now. BLAH!




since i thought the letter was F i'm gonna put one letter F. FABLEHAVEN BOOK 4. Nick and i are reading it and it's AWESOME! we went to the book signing party and that was loads of fun too.




On to the real letter. Letter G.


1. Grandparents they're amazing people. I hope my dad sticks around long enoough for my kids to get to know thier Grandpa cuz it's the best thing ever to having loving grandparents around.








2. Guacamole it's probably one of the healthiest snacks you could possibly think of. so good for you soo good to eat!




3. Garth all 3 of em. They're goobers, and goofs and gazillion amounts of fun.




4. Grant he's such a cutie. He makes life a lot of fun.




5. Gratefulness so tell me what you are grateful for and spread the joy.





And lastly, my photo class is almost over. I'll share some of the pics when i get more of a chance and show you all the fun things I'm learning. if anyone is interested they are starting another class soon and i think there are still spots available.

Tootin Tuesday's will now be changed. I've decided to follow clusters of people's accomplishments rather than just one person. Also, I'd like you all to include the great things you've done this week.

I am helping redecorate my sisters house to make it homier. not homlier, homier. and i'm taking a photography class taught by my friend Erin and i'm pretty proud of one of a couple of my shots. Tell me what you think.



(This is my favorite shot I took.)

Isaiah has finally grown a tooth and kept it. yep his first real tooth. He's had plenty of teeth surface, but they've all disappeared back into his gums but not this little guy. He's sticking around. it's a fun accomplishment.

(I know this doesn't show his tooth, but it's really cute. Grant wanted to push Isaiah in this toy stroller.)

My dad just is building a shed with the help of my family, especially CAMI. You would never know this was his first shed. He just knows what goes where and how to do this and how to do that. It's crazy.






Nick just finished all of his mid-terms and did a pretty sweet job. He's been working his butt off lately. It's finally spring break and it couldn't have come any sooner.

(This is one of the shots for my class)

So ?????? to all of you, what great thing have you done this week, wether it be small as a tooth or big as a shed? I wanna know what you are proud of.

My super bad, no good, terrible, awful, wish it would never happen again, but it still did day.

Let me start at the beginning. On Tuesday I taught the 10 and 11 year olds a class on Baby care. including: bathing, changing diapers, and the baby Heimlich. Well, i think someone is out to kill my child. Just yesterday my skills were put to the test. I sat my sweet little son down to play and made sure i couldn't see anything on the floor he might shove into his mouth. Not seeing any culprits i let him play while I got some baby food. I came back and noticed him gumming on something. Oh, no biggy, I thought. it's probably just a baby mum mum.




Conveniently located in the baby isle of Wally world. You'll find these mum mum to be great for infants.



So i wish that's what was in his mouth..... anywho back to the story. He seemed to be having a little trouble on it but not much so i hooked him into his high chair and noticed it was only getting worse. i busted him out and held him in position to knock it out. I hit him a couple of times and he still wasn't doing too hot. My family, who was all there, kept saying, "you gotta hit harder" So i failed my class apparently cuz i said, "Look i know i taught it but i'm not doing it right so someone needs to help him, NOW!" My sister took over and gave him the Heimlich and THIS was in his throat! I couldn't believe it. AHHHHHHHHHH! It still makes me sick to my stomach.






Well, Then I'm down here getting ready to blog about my son's life or death experience when it happens again. HOW IN THE HECK IS HE FINDING ALL THIS CRAP?... EVERYWHERE? so, yes, literally 2 minutes ago we had to give him the Heimlich again to dislodge this.







I'm so sick of someone trying to kill my son. I'm going after whoever it is. The stinkface.

The Fearsome F in all it's fearsomeness.



1. Fielding's - I super duper love my fam, in case you couldn't tell by the constant ranting i do about them. the Fielding's ROCK!



2. Friends - a good friend is hard to find but when found they are worth it. Here's a pic of me and my best friend. bet you can't guess what we're doing under there. ;)






3. Forgiveness - it feels so great to be forgiven, and great to give it as well.



4. Flattery - My husband brought me roses today for no reason at all, and told me i was great. it feels good when those kinda things happen.






5. Funky Chicken - HOW FUNKY IS YOUR CHICKEN, HOW LOOSE IS YOUR GOOSE! need i say more?



6. Fingers - oh, the powers of 10 digits. without fingers could we ever do this?






7. Food - my favorite is probably lasagna, maybe potatoes, no cheese, no ahhhhh! i love it all. Chocolate cake is definetely up there. as you can see in the pic above, it's great.



8. Fiesta's - Party on DUDES! this is the cake I made for my niece's birthay party.





9. Family - As i said in number 1, family ROCKS!



10. Faith - Don't know where i'd be without faith, Faith in God, in People, Faith in myself. It's such an important thing to have and sometimes i forget all about the third part. so remind yourselves to have faith in yourself.



Over and out.

Being thankful isn't always easy, so tell me what are you thankful for. And remember today's letter is...

What a great letter. I probably only think that because it's the first letter of my name. ha ha. oh, well.




1. let's kick it off with Elephants- they are so cool. I love watching them at the zoo.





2. Estrogen- What separates us from the boys, ladies. We're pumping with it. Keep in mind this is the ugliest stick figure ever and not all women look like this. unfortunately some do.







3. Electricity- I don't even want to imagine what it was like without lights and computers and all of the frivolous things i enjoy so much.





4. Energy- I can't say it enough. I'm so thankful for the days i actually have enough energy to get stuff done. I guess when you don't get to experience it often, you are truly grateful for the days you do.





5. Everybody- My husband was telling me this story the other day about a women who had a dream all about heaven and how everyone here on earth we knew, personally knew, in heaven and we all agreed to come here together and work together to get back to heaven. It was really a great story and I'm trying to remind myself that EVERYONE was sent down here to earth to help each other. and hopefully I'll do a better job at looking out for others.

Toot that horn my friends. My sweet little pumpkin is sick today and i just want to show everyone how great he is.... and maybe remind myself how good he is since lately has been kinda a downer. So here's some shots of my baby and what we've been up to this year.






After 18 hours of Labor our sweet baby was born... by C-section. and as you can tell he had 10 fingers and 10 cute, squishy toes.






He grew and as he grew so did the love we had for him.





He started kissing early in life.





He was Dopey for Halloween. and a cute one at that.






He LOVES smiling.





Just as much as he LOVES frowning. And he's also learning to crawl.





He love the outdoors and hanging out with his cousins, whether it be outside...




or in the sink/Tub. and he can't get enough of the splashing. He loves it.





and lastly he sleeps like this. which just makes me happy inside.
