Where has the time gone? PROM 2012

Dusty and his best friend Austin

Wow, my baby is just a few weeks shy of 18!!!!!!  He went to prom this weekend and it was, for me, a bittersweet feeling.  He's on his way to be a man.  (As I type, he is asking for  a check for lunch)  LOL.
It's hard to believe that just what seems to be a short time ago I was handed a 6 lb, 14 1/2 oz baby boy and now he's going to prom!!   He has grown so much (no pun intended)  He doesn't need me to kiss his boo boo's and he doesn't come running up to me with a giant smile and wide eyes to show me something icky.  Gone are the days of hearing "mommy rock"  or "hold me. I sad"   My baby is a man, almost a full grown man.  It can't be true, I can't see past the tears flowing down my cheeks, my tiny baby boy is a man.

BUT...........he still needs that check.  LOL.

Easter 2012

Ok, let me get this straight.  You want me to be excited about a "magic" bunny that POOPED a jelly bean trail in the house???!!!

"I don't care........He can poop marshmallows if he brings me a present!!"

"I still don't get it........he POOPED THESE???

Uh, ok...  This I may like.

Playing with daddy

HEY, This is the candy I got at school..........man my folks are cheap

Trying to steal some from Vince

Hey, this is all i get???

Ugh, FINE, I guess it will do.

Back off bubby, this is my candy

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM YUMMY

Yeah, eggs!!

Ok, I'm done with this now.

I said I'M DONE!

WONDER WHERE THAT JELLY BEAN POOPING BUNNY WENT?

Someone pour me a drink.

Ok, Just fair upfront warning...........there will be no pictures of my seriously spoiled, naughty beautiful children in this post! 

This post is just an at my whits end with these kids ranting.

VINCE: can talk and does waaaay too much  still, that boy cries and throws screaming tantrums way too much.  (we call them needing exorcism moments) REALLY!  He's taking an early nap right now due to one of them. That boy has a vocabulary and he uses it.  He says words most adults don't even use.  This morning he told Allison that he was PERTURBED because she wanted to take apart his block castle.  This one sided "conversation" and snatching the blocks away caused her to scream bloody murder. 


ALLISON: does not talk.  She can say momma and dada but only says it when crying and trying to get her way.  She has added another word well, i don't think it is actually a word.... HI-YAH (imagine karate chop sound)  Vince has taught it to her and she likes this new sound very much.  She loves her passie and I am (due to the episode mentioned above) using this time to place her down also for a nap WITHOUT IT! She hasn't had it all morning and is now napping with out it.  Well, I think she's napping, I don't hear her crying or playing with that dirty little bunny.


DUSTY:  LOL, where do I begin?  51 days and counting, this one will be 18.  WOW,  He still has the cleaning up after himself skills of a primate and there is a strange smell coming from his room you can smell downstairs.  Favorite phrase is "what's to eat"  sometimes I think this is all I hear him say until he asks for money or a truck. 


Huh, I thought this was going to be more of a rant but it's actually making me laugh.  I guess that's why God made them so cute and sleepy. 


Well, I better take advantage of this quiet mommy time.

Bye Bye.
