FINALLY

We started a new blog. The web address is. www.itsjustthatcrazy.blogspot.com

I will no longer be updating this one as it, or me, has gone retarded. Love you all.

AN IMPORTANT LESSON LEARNED!

Not a good idea to go grocery shopping when you have had the worst week ever, and you are hungry. You end up spending A LOT more money, and come home with nothing good for you. He he he.

JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS

First, I am pretty sure I am going to change my blog address. I can't figure out what I did, but I am almost positive I screwed it up big time. I thought it might be my camera, but both cameras don't work with it. It might be my computer which also needs replaced, but I don't know.

Second, We made it back from the states. I am pretty sure you all figured that out because I am here typing this. The kids were such troopers. They were awesome. When we got to our first flight, (from Portland to Vancouver, BC) they told us they didn't have three seats left together, so she was going to put us in seats and have us figure it out on the airplane. I got on the airplane, and it was a big confusion. The stewardess didn't like me all that much. We were blocking the aisle because Chase absolutely refused to sit down next to a man he didn't know and started screaming because I was trying to make him. Madison was flirting with the guy in front of her, and he loved it. Once we all got situated, it was a smooth flight. We had a 6 hour lay over in Vancouver. The kids had a lot of fun going into all the airport shops. They had a big fish tank in the middle of the airport, and a wishing well. Chase liked throwing the money in and making a wish. He kept asking me for more monies. I had to cut him off after 3 pennies because I only had quarters left, and lets face it, I am not throwing away a quarter. We finally got on our last flight and found that it was completely booked. I got to hold Madison on my lap for the entire 10 hour flight. It was hot, and I am pretty sure I was stinky. I felt bad for my home teacher who picked us up at the airport. Now that we are back, the kids are adjusting. Madison is having a hard time with that. She wakes up at weird hours and asks to go down stairs. She got mad at me last night when I wouldn't let her play at 2am. I am sure it will just be a couple more days until we are all back in the routine.

Finally, a lady in my ward sells polish pottery. She is having an open house on the 8Th. I figured I would put her web site on here for you all to look at. If you want something just let me know, and I can pick it up and ship it to you. It is really expensive to just order from her web site and ship it to the states. It would save you a lot of money to just go through me. Here is her web site http://www.bluebeepottery.com/index.html

MY TRIP TO PARIS

I went to Paris this week. It was a lot of fun. I went with the girl that is living in my basement (Carla). We went to the Arc De Triomphe, the Louvre, Notre Dame, and the Eiffel Tower. It was an insane day with A LOT of walking. I am just posting the pictures. If you want to hear about everything, I will tell you when I get there. Woo Hoo. One more week until we leave for the good ol USA. We miss you all. Enjoy the pictures.

No, I didn't fix my blog, but there are not so many pictures on it, so I can just type out an explanation without screwing stuff up.

Chase is into Star Wars. This is a recent development. We made a long drive with the kids (made even longer by snow) while my parents were here. I feel it was a stroke of genius on my part to put Star Wars in the movie bag. I put 3, 5, and every girl's personal favorite 6 (who can get over the little Ewoks. They are so cute). I don't know the actual names of the episodes, so you will have to deal with the numbers. He wants to watch Star Wars every day. He doesn't really like the newer ones. He actually will tell me that he wants to watch the Luke Skywalker Star Wars. I think those ones are better anyway.

I guess he picked the right time to get into Star Wars because I think it is coming back. We went shopping today, and there were Jammies, Under-roos and many other things sporting C-3PO, R2D2 and Yoda. Well most of you know the shopaholic in me had to buy something useless. I bought him some Star Wars sun glasses. We came home from the store, and he had to watch Star Wars (or as he calls it Star Whores, yes I am embarrassed. Let’s just hope he doesn't talk about it in public too often) while wearing his glasses.

EXPLINATION FOR PICTURES BELOW

First Picture: I love this picture of Madison. It just shows how much she has grown. She has curly hair. I love it. It is so cute. It isn't annoying curly yet, even though I think it might be going that way.

Second Picture: This is Madison's toy house. Our neighbors gave it to her for her first birthday. She loves it. It is her favorite toy

Third Picture: Chase loves to have his picture taken, and will do all he can to get me to take one of him.

Fourth Picture: Chase playing with his train tracks. He has been getting into these a lot more lately. I think that is because he can put them together by himself now. I think it is obvious that I helped with the figure 8

Fifth Picture: Madison being her goofy self. She loves putting things in her mouth

Sixth Picture: Madison looking through her legs. I loved when Chase learned how to do this, and it is the same with Madison.

Seventh Picture: Madison just happy because she is eating.
