Happy Birthday Little Miss....

2 years.

My baby girl is 2 years old today.


*sob*

She has Daddy wrapped around her little finger...

She has her brothers tricked into adoring her...

She has Mommy convinced she can do no wrong...

Even the dogs love her!

And she's only 2!!

We're in for it.

Happy Birthday Little Miss!

We love you!

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go drag The Hubs away from the gun counter.

He's not dealing well with his baby girl growing up....at all.

By the time she's 18 he's going to have a full on arsenal.

You think I'm kidding....I wish I was.

:)

He's 7 and 4 days!!

So this post is about 4 days overdue, but hey, its still technically his birthday month so I think its ok. Last Friday The Dude made it official and turned the big 0-7!! YEAH! How he's made it to 7 is beyond me...

Since the Fam was in town for Thanksgiving we took advantage and had a little co-birthday party since The Little Miss turns the big 0-2 this Thursday! Don't even get me started....I'm in denial that she's growing up. *SOB*

So my dear sweet Mason, I hope you had an amazing 7th birthday.
We love you more than life itself and you make every day worth living.
We are so proud of the amazing young man you are becoming
and can't wait to see what the next year brings for you!!
Love,
Mommy, Daddy, Boogie, Sissy, Sang Sang, and Boosa

Excuse me while I go find a tissue so I don't have to wipe my snot face on my sleeve....Here, look at these pictures while I'm gone.

{One cake for 2 kids...50% Dora, 50% Toy Story, 100% DELICIOUS!}



{Coolest Lego case EVER! He was just a wee bit excited...}



{Utensils are for quitters! This girl is in the big leagues.}

{Is there something on my face?}


ps- this is just the beginning of the bday posts for The Little Miss....just wait til you see the party I have planned for her! EPIC!

Gobble Gobble Suckas!

Is anyone else drooling in anticipation for Thursday?? I know I am! I've got my stretchy pants washed and ready for use. I've got my Black Friday ads circled and mapped out. Target. Old Navy. Kohl's. Make way chumps! I am ready to make this Thanksgiving my biznatchel! Huzzah!!

And lucky me, I get to HOST turkey day this year...ALL of the family at my house...whoopity doo. We may end up eating Carl's Jr depending on how things go around here. But there is one major bonus to having family coming over for the holidays....it's TOTALLY lit a fire under my lazy arse for Jordan to get things done around here.

Between painting bedrooms, hanging drapes, re-decorating, and wrangling feral children, its been a CRAZY week. I'm still on a mission to find some awesome barstool and the perfect mirror for Little Miss Presley's room. That's on the to-do list for tomorrow....until then, its off to figure out how the heck I'm gonna cook this bird.

Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Gobble Gobble Amigos!!

Get your dancin' shoes on because its.....

IT'S BERFDAY PARTY TIME!

{Toot Toot! That's my horn....because I designed this. Badarse.}

This last weekend we celebrated The Dude's 7th birthday and it was INTENSE! He wanted a Lego party and a Lego party HE GOT! I didn't clean the house or make dinner for two weeks straight, but I did make some pretty legit party decorations for this kid. Not that any of the kids there cared about how friggin awesome my cupcake toppers were....but I know you all do. RIGHT?? Go on, take a peek at The Dude's fiesta...

{You are now entering the party zone!}

{Because drinking with a Lego straw is soooo much cooler...}

{Yummies and Lego Brick gift bags! The kids LOVED these!}

{My birthday boy...it says so on the banner.}

{Good friends. Good grub. Good times.}

{Totally random, but The Little Miss is SO tall! She's not even 2!}

{Thou shalt eat me! Huzzah!}

{Pure happiness right here :) }

{Nom nom nom...get it Boogie!}

{This smile made it all worth it...}

I wish I had more pics, but my lame camera was being a hag that day. But the kids had an awesome time playing wii, going nuts with insane amounts of Legos, and chowing down. And even though his actual birthday isn't until next week, The Dude told us he had the best birthday EVER! I'll accept my Mother of the Year award now, thankyouverymuch.

Next on the list....The Little Miss' birthday party....IN 2 WEEKS!!! Shoot me now...and pass the glue gun.


ps- if anyone wants to know more about the Lego party just let me know. you can click on the pics to see the decorations more up close. the kids LOVED it and its perfect for any Lego lovers :)

Better late than never!

I know, I know...this post is a wee bit late, but here it is in all of its glory! Halloween was a blast! It was a non-stop weekend of class parties, trunk-or-treats, house parties and trick-or-treating...oh, and pumpkin smashing with toes. Of course it was filled with the traditional Halloween fun like pumpkin carving....

and good times with friends at the Casa De Cline...

and of course there were costumes!!

{Little Miss Presley just monkeyin' around}

{The sugar high force is strong with these two}

{Your balanced breakfast! He's a nice piece of meat...}


and then there's THIS...

All I wanted was a little treat, instead I got a toe-ful of pumpkin. I was brutally assaulted by the heartless fruit (that's right its a fruit). Yeah, that happened. One sprained toe, two crutches, an infection, and a heck of a lot of pain later...Halloween was a friggin' hoot. At least I have boatloads of candy to ease my pain...

But on the bright side, the kids had an absolute blast huffing candy for 3 days straight and they looked absolutely ADORABLE wearing their costumes EVERYWHERE we went. And trust me, they wore them eeeeeverywhere. I'm off to go raid their candy stash....have an awesome weekend amigos!!

A girl after my own heart...

Apparently I wasn't shoveling this frozen goodness into her mouth fast enough...she had to take matter into her own hands...or should I say mouth!

{Show Mommy how the piggy eats...}

It's cute when she does it. When I do it people just look at me crazy. But you know what this picture taught me? That I don't think I'm gonna have to worry too much about this girl. She seems to know how to handle things herself! She's a do-er folks.

I'm glad she can take care of herself, because life has been kicking my arse. And so have our new stairs...I've fallen...TWICE. I'm about as graceful as Paris Hilton getting out of her car and flashing the paps her vajayjay.

I think I jinxed myself last post when I said that life was returning to normal. Life has been CRAZY! But we are settled into the new abode! Excluding the stairs and the current paint job (I'm working on that as we speak), I'm LOVING the new house....its pretty much amazing to put the kids in their rooms upstairs and shut the door and go down stairs to SILENCE and relax. Having space is GLORIOUS!

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to tackle the room I fondly call the "red room disco"...it's just wrong on so many levels...

{Good bye disco...Hello primer...}

Feliz Wednesday!!

Testing, Testing, 1-2-3...

Is this thing still on??

Ok be honest, when you read the title to this post did you think it said testicle?? Because I totally did.

Anytestes....yes we're alive....BARELY. I'll get around to telling you what happened as soon as I brush the packing peanuts and packing tape off of me, because we MOVED! That's right! The Casa De Cline has found a new abode, and its pretty flippin awesome! I'd show you some pics, but the camera is still packed under a mountain of boxes that I don't plan on unpacking anytime soon and there's crap every where I'm not done decorating.

So needless to say, life has been just a wee bit insane lately. And for the record, not having the internet SUCKS! The internet repair man thought I was brit-brit crazy when I greeted him with a ticker tape parade. What can I say, I was excited...but I admit the jazz hands and 'welcome' sign may have been a little over the top. So I'm animated, deal with it!

But thankfully we're up and running and life can return to "normal". Because I'll tell you what, all this family time and cleaning time has secretly been absolutely amazing is taking a toll on me. I'm not cut out for that kind of stuff.

I can't wait to get caught up and tell you all about our 2 weeks spent nursing burn wounds, going to doctor's visits, moving, and painting the most heinous room I've ever seen in my life.

Happy Thursday Amigos!!

It's good to be back....
