very random post

All week long, and everyday this week I was going to blog. It was one of my "goals" for the day, along with many others. It is now Sunday afternoon and I have many random pictures I have taken through out the week that was supposed to go to a few small posts. Well it has turn into one large very random post...sorry!!!

On Thursday we had lots of cleaning to do. And of course Ry was there every step of the way lending his helping hand. We started with shampooing his room. Which very fast turned into play time for him.

Well we can't forget about his FIRST bloody lip at his Grandma's house on Tuesday. This was actually his only bloody incident ever. I was so happy I was not there when it happened...even though I think I would have kept my cool better then I heard she did.

Then I was promising him I would make him a smoothie for days...he drank 3 of these cup fulls that morning alone!Then due to all the smoothie drinking he peed so much it went through his diaper and got his PJ's wet. He has a robe that he wears as a "transitional period". you know the time when you don't want to put another pair of PJ's on him but you don't want to get him dressed yet because you were going some where in a bit but don't want to get him dressed yet because he will get that outfit wet/dirty too. So this is when he wears his robe. Well he just thinks he is king of all kings and acts really silly in it. Then after only completing half of our goals we ran some errands. We were at CVS and I saw some finger paints...and I thought, yeah I am going to be that awesome well put together mom who actually has a craft planned for the day and actually does it. So far the day was going good, got about half of my stuff done...not bad I must say, considering I they have been on my "to-do" list since Christmas. Well once again I tried the craft with my boy...when am I going to learn he is just not into them? The one paint picture you see is what I did...while he is saying "no no no". The pictures actually look like he is doing them, but don't be fooled. After our wonderful day (I say wonderful because I have come to terms with the fact our day and time is what it is, it was not what I had planned but we had fun anyway...even with the left over dirt and dog hair that was not cleaned today)! So still trying to be the "perfect wife/mom I made this wonderful home made meal. I made a little chicken, it baked for 2 hours, basted and injected every 20 minutes, covered with foil when it turned brown. I was so proud, I actually thought I had made a huge step for wives/mothers everywhere...if I can do it, so can you! My chicken was beautiful. Matt comes home from work, gives us hugs and kisses, I say "how was your day babe?", all the same time pulling the chicken out of the over to baste it one last time, and so he can see it and say how wonderful I am! I take the foil off, and look up at him with this smile of achievement, and he says..."oh, that's the kind of chicken we are having" !?!

I could not believe it, but I was okay, it knocked me down to the real world again...this is just our life. And no matter what, I think every last bit of it is beautiful...especially my chicken (and it tasted just as good as it looks)!
