His manhood will never be the same......

So he did it. He went in and messed up his chance of having any more kids.
It was uncomfortable. He hates it. He wants whoever is kicking his balls to stop, please.
He hates being confined to the couch. He hates the way it feels when he stands or sits up.
The boys don’t understand. They want to see his owies. They can’t. That would scar them for life. We created a new owie. Just for them. He wants my pity. I laugh. Really loud laughs. I do feel an ounce of sympathy for him. But it had to be done. I wasn’t going in for it. His surgery is easy compared to what they would have done to me.
We don’t have enough flexible ice packs. I offered him some frozen veggies. I get a strange look. I laugh. Really loud laughs. Hey, cold is cold, who cares if we have to eat it later.

I might get to sleep in the bed alone tonight. He wants to protect himself. I don't share the bed well. He is afraid of me hitting him. All of a sudden he is pretty protective of his gear. I laugh. Really loud laughs.

Here is a picture of the pretend owie. Band-aids on the side of Jasons belly. Kamden is smarter than that. He gets it.
Kamden questions why this owie on the belly is making daddy walk funny.
“You got more owies down there Daddy?” his inquisitive mind asks.
“Nope, just where my bandaids are”
“Well then let me sit on your lap.”
Its too much to explain to him. Someday.
Thanks for being so brave honey. And mostly, thanks for the entertainment and laughs!!
You'll be back to almost new in a day or so!!

I am all fitted....too bad I am short!

So I went tonight and got fitted for my friend Kari's wedding coming up in May. She insisted I go by the end of January to have it here on time. I am not exactly sure why as they tell me it will be in March 2nd. Its probably a good thing its all done early though cause I am going to have to have someone take at least 3 inches off the bottom.....or else I could end up on my face that day! Anyone know of a cheaper place to get alterations? Davids Bridal was quite spendy for that. All the bridesmaids are wearing different style dresses...this one is mine. I loved it on this girl, but it wasn't quite the same when I got to the store....still very nice, but this model...she just makes it look so good!!




I did pictures of the lovely couple last weekend.
She wants to send out "Save the date" postcards. I really like the one to the left best.




This is her pick. I like it too...just like the other one better...
They are both pretty photogenic, really helps make for easy pictures!!

Thanks Leap Frog.....

D says duuuh, D says duuuh....every letter makes a sound and D says duuuh....

Thanks so much Leap Frog--I just love love love having these silly little songs in my head!!!

Favorite Foto Friday

Its been a long week. I'm sure glad its Friday! Not exactly sure why it seemed so long....I am learning a new system at work and its getting the best of me...that must be it! Or maybe the fact that I stayed out til almost 4 Saturday morning and have yet to really recover. That could have something to do with it too. Me and my friend Lisa went to see Josh Blue Saturday at the casino....It was alot of fun...for those of you that don't know, he won last comic standing season 4.
We also played a little at the casino...well Lisa did...I lost pretty quickly and was done.
Right before we were going to head out she won $200 on a penny machine and paid for her days shopping and playing.....that lucky girl.
Lisa, Josh Blue and Me

I also got a new present this week! Jason decided that his entire bonus didn't have to be put into savings this time and we splurged a bit on each of us a new toy. He just finished building himself a new desktop and I wouldn't stay off of it so I got a new laptop. Reality is he wanted the laptop as much or more than I did as he wanted me off his computer. So far, I love it....I can sit on the couch and browse the internet or post....what a lazy solution....but I love it.

And for my real favorite photo of the week.
Tomorrow is my niece Carries' 15th birthday! Happy Birthday Carrie!!! Hope you have a fun day.

Have a great weekend!!

Nothing new....

I see I haven't made a post in January at all....wow....its only cause there is nothing to say and I actually took the time to print some pictures and mailed a bunch to my mom so I don't feel so much guilt and the need to post them here.

Lets see----most of you knew I had applied for a different job at the clinic...well it didn't go my way. I did get a new boss with the process though cause my boss actually stepped down and took the position I wanted. I was a little bummed out cause I was so ready for the challenge and to learn more, but I guess it was meant to be. My job is definitely quite routine which bores me out most days....maybe something else will open up with time.

New years resolutions....we didn't really make any. I mean its a "whole years resolution" to eat healthy and lose weight, nothing about the new year that would make me change that....That's just a constant struggle. If I did smoke my new years resolution would be to quit...did you see the price of that habit? Wow...I can't imagine....so as mean as I am...One of my news years resolution is to convince my mom to quit. Your so broke all the time as it is mom, just think of the money you would save!!! I didn't get my being cheap from her, that's for sure....maybe it was from watching her not shop or budget so smart.

I do have a little more of push to try to drop a few pounds. A friend is getting married in May and I really don't want to be the fattest bridesmaid. SO I joined up with a team at work for the biggest loser....We are Team Awesome....so hopefully we do just that...awesome. We have to pay to join and then pay for each pound you gain. I plan to pay my start up fee, but never pay again. Winning is quite nice too as the payout is in cash and who can't use a few hundred dollars extra. That would pay for that bridesmaid dress I will need. I got a couple skinny minnies on my team so I will have to do double the work to help our team out. If it isn't in the house, I can' t eat it, right?!
