Well...we are getting ready for Jeriah to turn 3...(holy crap). I am trying to figure out how to make a Buzz Lightyear cake...it should be interesting. Last year we made him truck cakes and they turned out AMAZING..(mostly because of Matt). I should be getting Jeriah's Buzz that I got on ebay this week. I think I am more excited than anybody else.
Today is the super bowl...Matt has to work so I think Jeriah and I will make onion rings...it's been a while since we have made them.
I am officially ready for spring/summer. I want to go on walks with Jeriah and Oskar. Oskar is getting sooooo FAT because all he does is eat, chew on things and sleep.
I got Jeriah signed up for PRE Preschool..he doesn't start until August...but I think we are both excited. I am teaching him that green means go and red means stop...because we will be sitting at a stoplight and Jeriah will be yelling..."GO MOM!!"..it is really funny.
We got a RED Wii...we decided that since Matt wasn't going to school this semester we could get a little "treat" to pass the time. I don't really care that the Wii is red...the only reason I wanted it was because..if you buy a white or black wii...it costs $200 and you get some lousy games with it. Whereas if you buy the red wii..you still pay $200...but it comes with a game that is worth $50. We really like it.
We started doing Bountiful Baskets...we love it. It's where you pay $15 and you go Saturday to pick up your basket...you never know what's going to be in them until you get them. We have been eating ALOT healthier because of it. They also go to the grocery store and buy the same stuff that we get in the baskets and they comepare how much you save. Last week I paid $15 and they went to the store and they paid $37! We made homemade brocolli soup (yummy). We've been munching on cucumbers and bananas and oranges and apples and we even ate spinach the other night. LOVE IT.
I started working nights...eh. It's not bad...I just hate going out in the cold at night.
Love my dishwasher...L.O.V.E. IT!
I'm trying to convince Matt to knock down my wall in my kitchen...by the stairs so we can put a banister there instead....I am slowly getting there.
Well...I better run, Jeriah is wanting me to watch Monsters, Inc. with him.

Yup...we're still here...alive I mean

I just ordered Season 7 of NCIS and I am very excited! Since I work on Tuesdays now..I don't get to watch it. GGGRRRRRRR.
My newest battle has been trying to get Jeriah this alphabet fridge magnet..and Walmart has it for $20.00...but I'm a cheap-bo and want to get it cheaper. Someone told me they got it the day after thanksgiving for $10.00 But you all know how walmart is after the day of thanksgiving...I don't know that I want to deal with all those people just for that. So I have been bidding on ebay and I keep getting out bid. FRUSTRATION.
Matt is doing ok. He is REALLY in need of patients...but he used most of our friends and family for last semester. He is already stressing out. It will be great when he graduates and we won't have to deal with finding patients. (Not that we won't have other issues... ;)
We put a doggie door in the backdoor...WE LOVE IT....best money we ever spent on Oskar. We don't have to let him in and out all the time. And he has stopped scratching at my door.
I have to go...Jeriah and Oskar are biting each other.....

So we went to the Open house at the fire station..FUN!! It was downpouring all day but we decided to go anyways...FUN!! We got their and Jeriah saw the dalmation mascot and was in LOVE! He wanted to be where ever that darn dog was...it was cute. Whenever the dog walked by Jeriah RAN to him so he could get a hug. We also got to dress up in a firemans outfit and go into a room that was full of smoke-the room was simulated with a fog machine-so that we could get a feel of what it was like...and you had to rescue a bear...it was soo much fun. I got cute pictures of Matt but when he went to take pictures of me...the camera stopped working-I think I broke the camera with my looks. EH. Then we got a little fire fighter hat and a baloon and all sorts of stuff..it was great. Then next we got to go use the fire hose...that was pretty fun too. Oh and we got to sit in the fire truck...that was pretty awesome..talk about massive!! They even got a call while we were there so they had to take off...Jeriah liked watching them turn their lights and sirens on...ok..so did Matt and I. Overall...we really had fun.
They've started lunch in the park and we have been going every day. I think it is the coolest program ever!! I told Natalie that when she comes to stay with us next week that I would take her out to lunch every day....WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
We are planning on going swimming Tuesday..I'm excited to wear my new swimsuit and to see Jeriah playing in the water.
I took my friend to the Idaho Falls airport on Thursday..well on my way back and car drove past and found the only rock on the road and threw it at my windshield...causing a huge chip....right where I look to drive...ANNOYING! So I called our insurance company...they won't repair the rock chip..we have to replace the whole windshield because of safety issues...RETARDED. (Ok..I understand why..but...COME ON!) And I get to pick up my friend on Monday from the airport...so wish me luck that I don't get any more.
Matt is done with summer school...AWAWHO!!
I have received books 6 and 7 of the Rangers Apprentice...I was kinda bummed...because I'm waiting on book 5 so I can continue on. Should be arriving shorty...I hope.
Matt finished the first book and is DYING to read the second one...but Mike took it with him to Utah....HAHAHAHAHA.
Ok..I will try and get some pictures on here and then I am going to go watch NCIS with Matt....bye.

Hmmmmm..

Lets see....stuff that happened this week....
A friend of mine who is in cosmotology school called and asked me if she could cut my hair and style it for free Friday...so I did...I think we cut around 7 inches off..YOWSA!
I have only two days left of "babysitting" and then I am free...Monday and Wednesday.AWAWHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We went to the weenie roast at Grandmas house..that was really fun..Jeriah thought it was cool to have such a big fire. Everytime I asked him if he thought it was cool...he would look at me confused and say..."HOT!" Funny boy!
We got to spend the night at Nana and Papas...Jeriah really loves the bunk beds!
We had a yummy breakfast and then right after breakfast they made pasta salad so that we could take some home with us...sooo good! Of course Matt took it all to work with him...little piggy!
I have read Ranger Apprentice books 1-3 and I am currently waiting for the 4th book to arrive at my doorstep ANY DAY NOW! (HURRY UP BOOK)
I haven't been feeling well...I'm pretty sure I have a double ear infection so I have been pretty miserable...can't wait to feel better...(ALSO PLEASE HURRY!)
We are excited to have Mom and Mike come up this coming weekend so we can show them the surprise...(is it inside or outside....kitchen or bathroom...WAHAHAHAHA-I know you are stumped MIKE!!) That and we are going to give Jeriah his bike so he can have fun!
Matt is in his last week of summer school..HURRAY!! Then he will start working 40 hours a week at Walgreens...and I will once again..never see him!
Jeriah just dumped popcorn on the floor and him and oskar are having a competition to see who can eat the most popcorn the fastest....boys!!
Well..that's all this week....talk at you chickens later!

Hmmmmm

Where to start..last time I blogged was Christmas time...oops!
Matt hs just finished his first year of Dental Hygiene and he's taking summer school to keep his skills up. We just have to do everything all over again one more time. AAAHHH. I was looking at the cost for his last year..not too bad UNTIL he has to take his boards...for ONE board it is $800..for another it is $300...and there is more after that. INSANE!
Jeriah is getting so stink'in big...another INSANE! It's getting funner and funner. He keeps telling me he wants to ride a bike..I need to get health insurance first. ;)
Had fun hanging out with the family this weekend for Mother's Day. Everyone is getting so big. I went with mom to church because Natalie gave a talk and they gave up flower crosages..(SP)
Matt and I are working on the house..I can't go into too much detail because we want to surprise Mom and Mike with what we have done.
OH! I took Matt on a date to the "Second Chance Prom" in Idaho Falls..so we dressed up and went out to eat at the Olive Garden and then we went dancing. We ended up winning a one night stay at the Red Lion hotel in IF..and it's the river view room..WAY EXCITED!
I am LOVING scrapbooking with the Cricut! Makes everything faster and funner. I didn't go down there for like 6 months before I got the Cricut..now it's either every day or every other.
Sorry so boring...I will try and write more so it's more exciting...;)
