Yay's & Nay's Today

I think partly it's the time of year, partly just our lives in general, but busy, busy, busy.

I know I sound like a broken record.

Here are a few updates of plain ol' happiness, and some of my plain stupidity :)

{YAY #1}

Today begins the 3 day Tulip Time Festival in Pella. SO. SO. SO Excited. My bathroom scale on the other hand, is not so thrilled. I will probably eat my weight in poffertjes, little bitty pancakes with lots of strawberries and powdered sugar.......ahhh. Happiness=poffertjes.



And you think I'm kidding.......

In other news.......this is my FIRST Tulip Time since 2007 that I have not been pregnant. Suh-weet!

{NAY #1}

Did you know......that if you park your car on an incline, nose first, and you have less than 1/4 tank of gas....your car will think it ran OUT of gas?? Yes, it's true.

And did you know, that your car does not CARE if you're parked at a strangers house? Mmmm not cool.

{YAY #2}

My current favorite show on the Food Network: "The Best Thing I Ever Ate".
Unfortunately, it's on at like 10:30pm. And it makes me want to run to the fridge every single time I watch it...just stupid.

One I watched the other day....had THIS ice cream place that....get this....SHIPS ice cream. Seriously.....if they wanted to send me some for my birthday...I would be eternally indebted.

And no, really.....I'm NOT pregnant this Tulip Time :)

{NAY #2} 

On Tuesday, when Hayden were on our Mommy/Hayden Day, which was a lot of fun, by the way. I had pushed his nap time a liiiiiiiittle longer than I should, so while we were making our last stop before heading home, he fell asleep in the basket of the cart.
So rather than switching from a Lowe's cart to a Target cart, I walked across the parking lot. Not noticing the pothole that about knocked us to the ground, woke him up AND cracked my shin.in.half. Okay obviously not literally, but it hurts so bad. And the knot the size of a hockey puck doesn't fit so nice on my shin.

{YAY #3}

Hayden's latest cute thing.....singing. "Happy Birthday To You....Happy Birthday To You"...over and over....it kind of sounds.....and I mean KIND of sounds like the last line of Happy Birthday where you say "Happy Birthday dear __________". He is so sweet.

Oh, and another funny....last night Hayden wanted some animal crackers. I sat him on the floor and gave him a few. His brothers zeroed in around him and took almost ALL of them. Hayden just cried......'mine....cacko mine'....not funny, but really funny.

Owen, Silas & Hayden are currently making a mess of an entire box of diapers. Gonna have to wrap this up.

{YAY #4}

Two words.
