So sweet...

I love my son with all my being and couldn't imagine life without that little devil with the sweet heart. Today, after driving me crazy this afternoon, Liam went fishing with Daddy while mommy rested (or read her book in silence. However you want to look at it!) When Mike told Liam it was time to head home for dinner he said they couldn't leave till he found something pretty for Mommy. He searched the whole park until he found something worthy, and told Daddy it was pretty and would make Mommy feel better. When the boys got home, Liam ran straight to me and gave me the beautiful magnolia weird looking, fuzzy thing. It's great! Although he loves to push my buttons and is often mean to me, I know deep down he loves me!

Love a Good Deal

A few weeks ago I got a $1 off coupon for a newer product I hadn't yet tried. When money is tight I don't often take risks with new products. Nothing worse than spending money on something that tastes horrible!

Last week while I was at Walmart grocery shopping I walked past the freezer end cap and stopped to peek. The sign above the case said $2! Of course I am going to stop. It happened to be Pillsbury Savoring Pastry Bites on sale for $2. I had been wanting to try them and with my $1 off coupon I had no reason not to give them a whirl. The spinach and cheese looked pretty tasty and man was I right! They may have tasted even better because the whole box (12 pastries) only cost me $1 but I still think you should give them a try!

When Fish Talk to 3 yr Olds...

Strange things seem to happen during nap time. Liam seems to think he is too big for naps but really he is just too busy! More often than not, I will hear lots of thumping, crashing, and jumping come from his room during this time. Today was no exception! Liam came shuffling out of his room.

The conversation went a lot like this: " Mommy. Mommy I gave Blue some food." What Liam? " I gave Blue too much food." (Mommy runs to Liam's room) Liam!!!! What did you do!!!???

***Picture a gold fish bowl with two inches of tiny pellet fish food covering the top, big plastic storage container flipped over next to bookshelves used to climb up, and an empty fish food container.***

(Mike rushes in and immediately whisks Blue to the kitchen for emergency extraction)

Liam that is how you kill a fish!!! (Liam immediately goes to the naughty corner without being told and precedes to scream and cry. 3 Min pass) Liam why did you do feed Blue? "Well Blue told me he was REALLY Hungry!" Liam fish don't talk " He told me with his bubbles that he was REALLY hungry mommy. So I gave him his food."

Needless to say that Blue will be staying in the living room for a while and we will be headed to the pet store for more food tomorrow.

Update

I feel like it's been forever! How are you? The last time I made a post it was about our possible chance at moving to Italy. Typically, we don't tell people about these opportunities, because when we do something happens. For once we felt it was going to happen. We were one step away and the guy who started the whole process changed his mind! So as of right now, the LeCroy's will be staying put in the crumbling USA! (just my opinion and I have the right to it!) Mike does have the first right of refusal for any overseas positions that come up within the Air Force. So keep your fingers crossed for some place FAB!
