Look alikes

I had so much fun with these, I decided to then see who Kirk and I looked like. Hmmm, interesting to say the least!

Kirk's Celebrity look-alikes

Kelly's Celebrity look-alikes

sweet dreams, my chick-a-dees

When Kirk went upstairs to check on the kiddos before we went to bed last night, this is the sight he saw. Sam is completely sideways in his 'car' bed. I introduced a flat pillow a couple of months ago and he has yet to sleep on it, he is usually just below it or right beside it, but this takes the cake. He has 2 blankets (neither one on him) and all of his "friends" lining the bed (all except Tyrone that is, he is hugging him) from this angle I can not see taggie, though I am sure it is all snuggled up with him with his finger through the yellow tag loop (his favorite)

Here is Molly. She hadn't moved since I placed her there. Notice the pink pacifier in her mouth, as well as a 'spare' green pacifier close by (there is a 3rd somewhere in there too) can never have too many pacifiers (according to Molly) And yes, those of you observant enough to notice... she has FINALLY made it up to her very own room (though I am sure the spare bathroom was quite comfortable). We have all made the transition well. Kirk's fears have come true though, as they are able to wake each other up easier now. Molly has helped Mr. Sam rise and shine early every morning (yay...NOT) Night-Night all

addiction

What ever could make this girl so incredibly HAPPY!?
why it is her new found addiction: PUFFS, PUFFS, PUFFS
yum, yum ,yum can't get enough of these PUFFS!!!

boredom

What happens when your baby sister is sick and your mommy makes you stay in quarantine? Well, apparently you have to find your own form of entertainment. Oh, and what do your eyes spy? Could it be? How cool... a paper towel roll, those are so fun to "toot-toot" in and use as a telescope. Hmmm, there is only one problem though... there seems to be actual paper towels on it. What is one to do? Unroll them all in order to get to the prize:

then, later in the day :
Sam is hooked on 2 shows right now, "bear bear" (aka: prayer bear) and "hearse melmo" (aka: Elmo in the wild wild west) --he calls it horse elmo because elmo is on a horse. After having these shows on many, many, many times throughout the day (yes, I felt sorry for the boy, so he got to watch more tv than normal) I had finally had enough and said NO he could watch 'hearse melmo' later. I guess this was not a good enough answer, he decided to take things into his own hands. This is what Kirk found when he got home from work:
Yes, that is the DVD box sticking out of the VCR. ARGGGHHH. guess that is why he was quiet while I started on supper.
I am soooo happy to say, we are all healthy now and back out and about :)

BRRRRRR

last night:


WOW, did the thermometer really say 17 this morning? That makes for a pretty cold morning! The sleet started last night just after my Acteen meeting was canceled for last night and my Bible study was canceled for this morning.(I am really kind of happy about that one though, I was going to have to miss it again since molly still has a runny nose and cough) I know it is dangerous, but it is also so pretty to see. I love to see the shine of the ice that looks like everything is covered in glass. Too bad we don't have any real trees around to see.

here is the side of the brick, notice the protected inner side and the exposed outer side:
the "glass grass"
our shrub brrrr, makes me feel cold to think of being covered in ice!
have no fear, it is suppose to be back to the mid 60's by Friday!! (this winter has really been crazy that is for sure!)

Freebie poll

Ok gang, I know, it seems like all I have been posting lately is how to get FREE stuff, but hey, I figure if it looks good/cool and is easy to do why not share with all of my friends right?! If you don't want to do it you don't have to, but it is there if you do right?! Guess that means you might want to check the site often as you never know what might be free out there today, or don't check it very often as you could care less about the freebies. All this to say.... I will be taking a poll to see what you are really thinking. Check out the poll on the right side of the blog and be sure to "make your voice be heard" (that means VOTE!!! :) )

FREE Diet DR PEPPER

Yes, yes yes, it is TRUE!! the people at the Dr Pepper site are actually going to give away coupons for a FREE diet DR Pepper. (maybe it is to make up for those of us who never got in for their promotion a while back) Anyway, I don't really care about the reason, I just want to take advantage of it. I just completed this and for now it is working but, I am not sure how long this one is good for, so I would hop on over here now if I were you. You can chose either a free 20 oz or 2 Liter. I bet you can use the coupon on any DP but not sure. will do my best to use it to buy my Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper YUMMY!

Oh, I almost forgot... this freeby was discovered by my sweet hubby (he is always looking out for me :) )

free Starbucks

ok, all you volunteers out there. all you have to do is tell them that you pledge to volunteer 5 hours of your time for the organization of your choice and they will give you a free coffee. Click here to read the full article. Sorry just found this... it expires on SUNDAY

Poor Poor babies

This week our house has been hit by the common cold. For such a small little thing known as the "germ", it sure is mighty powerful !
Kirk initially had the lovely bug and then it passed to both of the kids. I knew Sam wasn't feeling very well because of this scenario:Those of you who know Sam know that he can't sit still for very long, so when he requested a blanket, I knew. All the boy wanted to do was lay on the couch and watch cartoons!
Little Miss molly seemed to have fared the worst. She had been utterly miserable. Unable to breathe through her nose (which is quite a tragedy for someone as addicted to her fooler as she is!) How are you suppose to soothe yourself when you can't suck on the pacifier? Since she never seemed to get better and she started "barking" like a dog I took her to the doctor. Croup was the verdict. hopefully she will be better in the next couple of days. We started her on some steroids to help as well.

now, I am just waiting for my turn. I have been dosing myself with orange juice and vitamins in hopes to avoid this nasty germ!--- but remember~ all you have to do to avoid the illness is wash those hands (it has nothing to do with those sweet little kisses from a germ infested 2 year old-- that HAVE to be planted squarely on the mouth!, or the sweet little sopping wet fingers that go from the baby's mouth straight into mine, or the coughing/sneezing/snotting that is all over my shirt, arms, legs, hands, face, or the breathing of a pathetic ,snoring infant who will only sleep if she is on my chest. naw, that has nothing to do with it... it is solely hand washing! :) right nurses?!

free Dr Pepper

Hey all you DP fans out there... here is an opportunity to get a free Dr pepper here
This one will be a WHOLE lot easier to get than the "Free DP from the actual DP site!!"
All you have to do is go to your closest ARBYS and use this coupon with any purchase thru 1-31. I am thinking a nice order of curly fries and FREE DP :) hmmm, krispy kreme yesterday, curly fries today.... no one needs to even ask me how my New year's resolutions are going!!
