So I just turned off the computer and started to stand up when I heard Spencer cry out. I went into his room and asked what the matter was.

Sp: “I never got a new map.” (bottom lip sticking out)
Me: “You’re right. Were you dreaming about it while you were asleep?”
Sp: “Yeah.”
Me: “Okay. How about you go back to sleep and you’ll have a new map tomorrow morning.”
Sp: “Okay.”

What a silly little boy! His buddy, Reid, had his 3rd birthday party on Tuesday. It was a Pirate party and although Spencer said pirates were scary, he really enjoyed himself. Leona (Reid’s mom) did such a great job (props to you Leona!!!). She even had a treasure map that led them to the ticking crocodile (egg timer) from Peter Pan. The kids followed the map, found it, and then they’d hid it again. At the end they found their treasure chests (I can’t pry it out of Spencer’s hands!!!) with lots of booty inside! Well, after we came home Spencer (who is very particular…maybe a little OCD?…about how things have to be) decided that the map was too wrinkled. He’s been asking me for a new one ever since. I keep hoping he’ll get over it but he obviously hasn’t. What a silly boy.

Okay, so today was an absolutely beautiful day! The kids were playing and Shana and I were enjoying the sun in the front yard. I put my arm down on the arm rest and… OUCH! Stupid thorn. I looked and there wasn’t anything on the arm rest. I put my arm down again and it was still hurting. That’s when I noticed the STUPID WASP with his STINGER IN MY ARM!!!! OUCH! I don’t remember ever being stung before! It hurts! :*( Shana (who’s allergic) smooshed it for me and made a baking soda & vinegar mixture. I finally figured out where the puncture hole was so she put it on and covered it with a Princess bandaid. It helped with the sting. I decided to take a picture of the little stinger…I mean stinker…before I flushed him (to make sure the kids didn’t step on him).

So, I decided to steal the idea from my neighbor to make my own baby books (and sell them on our site). I’m making one Jungle themed for Mike and Nicole when they have their baby in July. Here are a few pages I’ve completed:

My friend, Mikensi, had this posted on her site and I loved it so much I wanted to share it with each of you! (ehem…Mikey!)

Steve and I went to our first concert together. We stayed for the opening acts and left after the main group started (too vulgar). Thanks to my old roommie, Renee, loves LUDO and know we see why. We do to! IF anyone cares to look, here’s the video for “You’re Awful, I love you” (hilarious lyrics). I really like it. (It’s alternative so if you don’t like that genre, don’t listen)

Enjoy…or don’t! 🙂

Spencer and Evie love building towers and forts with the couch cushions. I love doing pages of our every day life so I decided to do this one today!

Today I started showing Aimee and Leona how to do digital scrapbook pages. After they left I decided to do one of my own. Here’s what I came up with:

Evie is getting so big! She repeats words and answers when I ask a question. Her “no” means “yes”, at least most of the time it does. Here are a few I actually caught on camera.
