Funnies...

So here are some funnies that a friend of mine sent me (thx Jan) these always make my day.

I am still waiting for the HEAT, I hear that it is coming this weekend just in time for me to go back to work.

Today I had an all day class on service and it was a really good class, there are some really neat stories out there of cool things that have happened to other flight attendants. I have just had funny things happen to me, and sometimes a little weird........

Kessler is getting so big. I swear everyday he looks a little bit different and is getting used to the choreographed chaos that happens here. I wonder if he will just be used to crazy when he gets big, and in the few and far between quite moments, he won't know what to do with himself.

We had the pleasure of going to see Kung Fu Panda, it is so cute. I am Jack Black fan (from nacho libre) so he makes it funny. I think it has a cute story.

Bauer and Kessler

So this week turned out pretty good we had well child checks for Bauer (2yr old) and Kessler (2month old). Bauer is so funny, he did such a good job at his appointment. Kessler was upset and so our beloved Dr. Lei, had Bauer be a big boy and he did such a great job. Kessler is our big boy 13.5 lbs and 26 inches long. 90% for weight and 95% for height.All our kids have started out tall and big and then even out. Bauer a perfect example 25% for weight and 80% for height......hmmmm......tall and skinny.....WEIRD.

Ben's week wasn't as bad as he thought. He got his 'feedback' about his presentation and his boss thought he did a great job. He showed a lot of 'passion'. Yeah Ben. His interviews went good too, although he found out he is not going to the actual interviews in July, he doesn't know when he is going. Bummer for me, not for him;)

Tonight we were able to go to a BBQ with a bunch of friends that I grew up with, most of us have known each other since preschool, it was so fun, we talked about all the crazy times, all the naughty things we did to our Sunday school teachers;) there were about 20 of us that all grew up together and most of the girls were there tonight.

Way to go Alivia....

So Alivia learned how to ride her bike yesterday. It took about 3-4 times and she was doing pretty good.

She only had one major crash, but no broken anything I am glad to say.

And in the video don't mind the whining Cooper in the background:)

She was so excited, talked about it all night long. Unfortunately she is not feeling well today, and it is a rainy, gloomy day. So maybe bike riding tomorrow.

This week is a big week for Ben, today he had a 10 minute presentation in front of all the STL's (store managers). It didn't go as well as he had planned all the video he put in it to use as an example wouldn't work through the projector. (major bummer) It was a great presentation he used clips from the movie Remember the Titans and they didn't work:( So then he got nervous and sped up he said, so he went through it faster than he had planned. And Friday he has a interview prep session with all the STL's again. Basically he sits in a room and gets interviewed all day long. Ben's favorite thing to do, talk to people and better yet.... about himself:)

Things you may not know about me?

Thanks to my sister Stephanie, I was tagged, even though I have done this before I thought REALLY hard about things that I love, that might be a little strange.

1. Okay, I have a small obsession with our garbage disposal, I often wonder how dirty is in there, so whenever I have boiled something for dinner or whatever. I LOVE to pour the hot boiling water down the disposal and turn it on, for some reason I think it is disinfecting it??
I also love to put ice in the disposal, I once read it sharpens the blades?? so occasionally I will fill up a cup of ice to pour it in the disposal.....

2. I don't really like having dinner, I would say 90% of the time, I make food for my family (Ben and the kids) and either not have anything or the majority of the time have cereal. For some reason I have been really turned off to dinner time meals.

3. I still love to chew ice, sadly it is an obsession, I will admit. If I were to go to the 7-11 or whatever and get a soda, I would fill it about 75% full of ice. Ben has lectured me over and over about not wasting my money on ice.

4. Some bad habits.....lets see, I usually am quite perfect...:)
maybe not cleaning the bathrooms as much as I think I should.
When I was pregnant I would drink a lot of soda, I have definitely cut a lot out, but that is a guilty pleasure (not diet soda, seriously who kids them selves, if your going to drink soda, its gotta be the real stuff) (exception for Stacy S and Jami H.;)

5.The grossest thing I have seen lately......um there is a lot to choose from but I would have to say, I kind of get grossed out when passengers take pillows from the a/c and snuggle their faces up to them. So they lean against the pillow against the side of the a/c........blaaaggghhh
NO THANKS----I will bring my own thank you....

6. Some jobs I have had
15-16 years old- West Jordan Care center (loved that job, learned so much about being grateful for my life)
17 years old-Jeans West at the Valley fair mall (learned gang signs;)
17 years old-Crosslands care center, learned the value of team work (I would work on one hall by my self a lot. It was hard to not be able to get to everyone, that needed things done for them)
18 years old- University of Utah Hospital, this was a great job, was able to see CRAZY things I would have never been able to ever see in my life. Was able to participate in medical research studies, learned the difference between real breast and fake ones (ask me sometime I will fill ya in)
worked there for 4 years, so glad I did.
22-31 Flight attendant, instructor, part time flight attendant.
-learned NEVER, EVER, EVER judge a book by its cover, there are so many weird people out there, but they all have a great story....
learned all my computer skills and public speaking skills.....the best job (other than being a mom) that you could ever have.....

I would love to tag...Leah, since she FINALLY created a blog, after her two favorite sister in laws bugged her to death. Julie she is my sister-in-law-in-crime;) AND ANYONE WHO WANTS TO SHARE, some neat things we didn't know....

A week in review

This week has flown by, as the last 2 months have.

So I want to post a few pics the first is we moved to kids downstairs all in the same room so I can repaint Alivia's room and now Kessler's has his own room for a while.

Well they all love to sleep in Alivia's bed, so he they are zonked out all snuggled up together.

Next Ben had a few days off and were able to take the kids fishing to Tibblefork in American Fork Canyon, we unfortunately did not catch anything, but the friends we went with did.

The boys had a blast throwing rocks into the water, that kept them occupied almost the whole time.

And today we were able to bless Kessler.

What a great day, I love that little guy, we are so lucky to have him......

watch this video it is so funny..

has this ever happen to you?

So yesterday was a really busy day, between the kids, house, a neighborhood BBQ, and a meeting with the primary for our summer BBQ (I am activities committee) so I was in a hurry to get ready late in the Afternoon. I jumped in the shower washed my hair and then all of the sudden I did not know where I was at or what I was doing. Obviously I figured it out really fast. It was kind of like when you are driving somewhere familiar and you don't remember the last five minutes.

It was so weird I couldn't help but crack up laughing.
