Will I be the one that finds a way?

Today Billy went to work in a bit early...like 15 minutes or so. My parents came over and took Hunter to their place for a bit.

I shopped around on ebay for a long time. I got Ryder a cool thing. It's a stuffed turtle that holds a bottle. He doesn't use bottles too much, but it's a pretty cool thing for when he does.






My dad cut my grass for me today. So that's awesome. I looked outside and Hunter had out his lawnmower lol. It's a bad picture, but oh well. I took it from his bedroom window and it's pretty far away from where he was.


I'm slowly catching up on laundry. I had to rewash all the clothes in our closet after the water bottle broke. My room is so flipin' messy right now thanks to clothes that need to be washed. So that on top of my everyday laundry it's insane.


I got Ryder a taggie blanket, and he uses it for it's purpose already lol.

The more I listen, the more I have to say.

Friday-Um...I guess my days ran together and I can't really remember what went on that day lol. I do know that Billy had a problem with his check. they neglected to pay him for when he worked last Saturday. I guess it gets confusing doing two different jobs. One involves clocking in and out and the other involves calling your boss to tell them when you arrive at your job. Oh well. They are going to put it on this weeks check.



Saturday-Billy worked another Saturday yet again. His boss taught him how to clean up around the plant. He taught Billy how to buff the floors and other odd jobs. What the heck for, i don't know. I guess it's just some good old fashion ass kissing on Billy's part, so he'll get promoted to his boss's job when he retires next year. After he got home we went to my parents for a BBQ.



Sunday-We made an attempt to seriously clean and get rid of stuff. Mainly stuff in our garage and a shed. Too bad we didn't get too much done since it was over 100 outside. We did have an interesting day to say the least.



Billy was cleaning out our closet and all of a sudden our hot water bottle thing broke and sprayed all over him. It's located in the back of our closet. Luckily it wasn't hot. He screamed for me to come help him. I grabbed all of my purses out of our closet and some shoes before I helped lol. They are too important :) Our closet ended up getting like 2 inches of water. We had to use a shop vac to get all the water out of there.



Later that night we went outside and sat while Hunter played. We had our backs to him. I hear him say " I'm a superhero!" so I turn to look at him. He ran full force into a tree. He hit it hard and started crying. I ran towards him to see if he was ok. He totally freaked me out. I so thought he would have broke something like his nose or hand. Thankfully he didn't. It took me awhile to calm him down. Whenever he was done he started playing again. Later that night Hunter talked to Billy's mom and told her, "The tree hit me." Yea Hunter blame it on the tree lol.

Today we had a plumber come out to fix the hot water bottle heater. They made $50 in 10 minutes. That must be cool. We went grocery shopping before Billy went to work. For the most of the day Hunter and I colored and Ryder slept. He's had a sleepy day today. He actually freaked me out. I told Hunter to go tickle his toes so he could wake him up to eat. Ryder didn't respond. I went and picked up up all frantically and he woke up and looked at me like I was a crazy lady.




I love this onesie I got for Ryder!


I'm a little obsessed trying to match them sometimes.


He was all smiles when he woke up today.


Ok Hunter is asking for me to cook him some soup...disney princess soup lol.

I'm sick of your sad songs and sing alongs.

Ryder has his dr. appointment today. He looks good and is meeting his milestones. He weighs 12 lbs. 13. oz (75%) I thought he weighed more. He has a lot of chub rolls that I have to clean out lol. He's 24.5 inches (90%)



My dad watched Hunter when we took Ryder to dr. When we were done we ran to Borders to get Hunter some books. I got him 2 books that have CDs that reads to you. He really loves them!

Hunter and I just colored and danced today. He's just a fun kid. He went outside to play for a little bit today, it's just too hot to be out there for a long period of time.

Hunter's quote of the day is when I handed him a drink he said, "Thanks!" and when I didn't say you're welcome he said, "Mom I'm welcome too!"

She spreads her silver wings to offer shade for my pale skin

As Billy and I were putting up our clothes in our bedroom this morning, we realized that we need more room. We can barely open up our closet door, because of Ryder's playpen. We decided that we are going to try to look at houses. We just moved here in March, but it's been so much hassle. I hate everything about living here. The only perk (but is as much of a flaw) is that my parents are close by. With my extra time I've been looking at houses online. I've only found one so far that I like. We looked at houses in the past, but nothing is ever perfect. Hopefully, we can find something this time.

Hunter and I played most of the day with his play food. While I was occupied with Ryder, Hunter played with Cupcake and also all of his poodle toys.

Hunter's quote of the day is, "Mommy, I'm drinking diarrhea." Ok, I suppose this one needs an explanation. Billy brought home some diet soda and gave one to Hunter. I guess Hunter asked what it was, and thought Billy said diarrhea not diet.

Ryder lounging.


Eck it's still doing it. Blurriness sucks. Hunter wanted to eat a jell-o Popsicle.

Hunter gave Ryder a pretend ice cream, since he was eating a Popsicle.




I have to go now and feed my dogs before bathtime.

Just like a rose ripped from its root

I had to run to the store yet again today. I'm glad that I live close by a Walmart or not it would be ridiculous. The batteries in Ryder's swing ran out yesterday and Hunter needed more milk. I had to run by the post office too. I'm having someone make me a hooter hider. I had to mail her fabric that I wanted it to be made out of. I'm pretty excited :)

My friend decided that she is going back to work. (the friend from yesterdays entry) Well she needs a baby sitter for her little girl. I'm contemplating it, but I don't know. At this point right now, it would be something easy I could take on. What about later? When Ryder is mobile? I don't know. Kattie and Hunter both seem to have similar personalities and they get along. I haven't said anything yet.

Billy went to work late today. He told them that he was going to be a few hours late. Why? Because he decided to give me a bit of a break. He let me take a nap and take a long bath. He's so sweet.

Ok picture time!

Well I guess I'll start out with bumbo pictures. Eck. My pictures get blurry when they are upright instead of long ways.



Bumbos aren't only for babys anymore. Three year olds can use them too.




Ryder playing in his crib with his stuffed zebra.



Hunter eating watermelon outside. So I guess I'm going to start doing a funny quote each day that Hunter said. Today he said, "Mommy, why are there pumpkin seeds in my watermelon?"

Home made baby food

So yesterday we went grocery shopping. I picked up some home made baby food. I mean it's crazy that they claim it as home made, but I got it anyways. I'm going to have Hunter give it a try and see if he likes it. That way I know if I should buy it later for Ryder.



Breeding hate, don't need no segregation


Saturday, Billy picked up an extra day to merchandising. I obviously don't like him working extra, but they paid him a lot more than what the job pays. Some guy went on vacation and they were desperate for help, so they always ask what it'll take for them to get Billy to work. Billy names his price and they pay it. Which is one small perk of his job.


A major downside is they decided that the union workers now have to start work at 3 instead of 4. The office people hate union workers for some reason. The office people aren't union and don't get nearly as many benefits at Billy and a few other guys. So him going in at 3 you'd think he'd get off earlier. Nope. They have to go in to take on some new responsibilities.

When he got home we went to the store to get some things. I had broke my mop earlier that day mopping Hunter's bathroom.

Sunday we went to my friends house, so Hunter could play with her little girl. Hunter is so freakin' small for his age it's crazy. My friends daughter, Kattie, just turned 2 and she's bigger than Hunter. I wish that I would have taken my camera yesterday. I'll have to remember to bring it the next time we go over.

After we were done there, we had to go to the Verizion store to get our new broadband piece. We did some other shopping around the town we were in. We went to Target and I got the boys some matching clothes. It's so fun to dress them alike. Hunter likes it when him and Ryder are wearing the same thing. I'm sure he'll hate it later and be embarrassed of pictures later lol. We also went to a store called Gordmans. I got the boys more clothes. Billy and I didn't have time to look for ourselves, because Hunter decided to have a meltdown.



Ryder turned TWO months old yesterday. I hate how time flies by so quickly! He's a little chunker already. I'm not sure what he weighs, I'll find out on the 17th.




Here he is at two months. Ok he's next to Kenny because I'm going to take shots of Ryder next to it for size comparison. Kenny just so happens to be the biggest stuffed thing we have lol.
Here is Ryder at 1 month.




Here he is sitting in his Bumbo seat.





So just a bit ago I told Hunter he was crazy, he replied back and said, "No, I'm just fun." I guess I couldn't argue with that lol.
