2nd Thoughtful Thursday

 It's October !!!!

We always go to the pumpkin patch the first weekend in October and I can't wait to go Saturday with my little family.

We've had a much slower week this week and I'm grateful.


 Monkey bar practice-


Played with friends-

I feel like my kiddos are too big already.  My little girl has changed so much in this last year and she seems so grown up.





And then this morning, she felt tiny again, as I discovered this...


What you are looking at is a brand new pair of shoes stained with sand/clay. It may not seem so bad in this photo, but this was after dumping out the tablespoons of SAND AND TINY LOOKING STICKS!! (I thought to take a photo after).  Liv approached me this morning and said "Mom, these socks are poking me."  I took off a shoe to adjust her socks, only to have my hands covered in SAND. I then took off the other shoe and received sand and tiny STICKS!  "LIVI, THE STICKS ARE POKING YOU! NOT SOCKS!!".  My head may have come close to an explosion, as I wondered about the transference of this sand in her closet and shoe rack. Her playground at school has wood chips, or so I thought, so I'm still not certain where this came from exactly.
In case you are wondering, she's still unsure on how that much sand "appeared" in her shoes or how tiny sticks were in there....and she also doesn't recall any sand or sticks escaping upon removing them on the last wear.
So, you'll find me with a cleaning toothbrush, baking soda, peroxide and dawn dish soap, scrubbing the insides of these shoes, because after all, we only looked at a dozen places (or more!) to find her size in the exact color she wanted.


How can he be 2 already?


He gave me lots of snuggles on Wednesday.  These days, it's a rare treat!


Today is the second set of 20 questions at random with The DeShazo.

21.)  What is your least favorite movie? -probably any Matrix movies because I just totally don't get it- or that Indiana Jones movie that Martinez made me sit through years ago with skulls swirling around in circles.

22.)  Where would you bury hidden treasure if you had some? -Doesn't that defeat the point of "hidden"?

23.)  What do you drink with dinner? -Water

24.)  What do you dip a chicken nugget in? -I only eat chicken nuggets if they are from Chick-fil-a- and I'll dip those in any of their sauces- but I'll go with the Polynesian sauce.

25.)  What is your favorite food? -Dessert.  I try not to discriminate though. I love most food.

26.)  What movies could you watch over and over again and still love?   -Hocus Pocus, Steel Magnolias, Tombstone, New in Town, Fried Green Tomatoes

27.)  Last person you kissed/kissed you? -Martinez

28.) Were you ever a boy/girl scout? -Nope

29.)  Would you ever strip or pose nude in a magazine? -Ummm, No.  There isn't enough eye insurance in the world for the viewers to receive proper treatment after that.

30.)  When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper?  -I can't remember.

31.)  Can you change the oil on a car? -Nope

32.) Ever gotten a speeding ticket? -Yep, and it left me with $161.00 less to my name.

33.)  Ever ran out of gas? -Yep, on the lawn mower. Repeatedly.

34.) What's your favorite kind of sandwich? -Anything from Napoleon's with that garlic sauce.... but probably a No. 4.

35.) Best thing to eat for breakfast? - Dessert ( and yes, I eat my "first breakfast" about 5:30am-usually a baked good.  I'll explain more about this some other time).  If it has to be a breakfast food- I'm definitely going for sausage gravy and biscuits.... and go ahead and add a slice or two of crispy bacon.

36.) What is your usual bedtime? -I like to be laying in my bed these days at 8:30pm and asleep by 9:30pm.

37.)  Are you lazy? -Nope.

38.)  When you were a kid, what did you dress up as for Halloween? - I cannot remember, which is frustrating because I love Halloween and I don't forget stuff like that.

39.) What is your Chinese astrological sign? -No clue 

40.)  How many languages can you speak? -One


 See ya next time!
