Caleb in the shower, Mothers Day, and Chopsticks

We all have some kind of sick bug around here. Yesterday I had the worst headache I have ever had, dizziness and all stuffed up. I know it is mostly allergies, but it is horrible. Today both the babies are feeling not up to themselves either.
This past weekend was busy for us.
This was Caleb Friday morning. I started the shower to warm up and then was getting Jacob undressed. I didn't hear Caleb all of the sudden and I found him in the shower fully dressed in his pajamas having a good old time. I guess I didn't get in fast enough for him.

Saturday I worked just a few hours and Jacob had to work all day. So as soon as I got off I picked up the kids and we went straight to my moms house for dinner. My moms birthday was yesterday so everyone was there. My aunt and grandma and all. We had a good time. Lots of food as always. Then gifts and dessert.
This is my cousins son Ricky and he is 4. Jacob and Ricky had a great time playing together.

Here is my grandma (and Jim behind her) opening some gifts. Happy Mothers Day Mamaw.

Here is my mom and Jacob. Happy Mothers Day Mom and Happy Birthday too.


Here is my Caleb eating Mothers Day breakfast in bed with me. I started cutting up his pancake and he took it from me and started eating it whole. He sure did eat that whole pancake too. (no syrup of course).

Man I sure have to say that Jacob could put some to shame with his pancakes. They were the best pancakes I have ever had. They were soooooo good. (Thanks for remembering to put the sugar free syrup on mine babe).

Then I was treated to lunch in bed later that afternoon. Since Jacob had to go to work the kids made me lunch. I wanted to scrapbook but I was just not feeling that great. So they made me mac and cheese and better cheddar dogs. Yum. Jacob is in bed sharing this with me. I did get in a good 2 hour nap that day though and that was so nice. Much needed. Then when Jacob got off we went to his moms for a short bit to give her the gift we got her and card I made her. We ate some bbq chicken too and then we came home. Was a nice day.

Jacob ended up having to work yesterday too and I felt yuck all day. I had the worst headache and was dizzy and felt like puking all day. I had to stop at the store and went by my moms to say bye since she was flying home and tell her Happy Birthday too. We had an easy dinner which consisted of homemade nachos and they were pretty good.
I then had a staff meeting last night. I really didn't feel like going, but did. I did purchase this new Quickutz alphabet while I was there. Ok so I didn't purchase it, but my mom gave me her credit card number too do it when I saw her yesterday. It is my birthday present but she went ahead and did it for me now since we only had about 4 left in the store. So I got it early. :) YEAH. But I think it will be great for when I make Matt and Amberleys guest sign in book for the wedding. I am excited that I have another alphabet now though. Out of the 4 this one was my favorite new release. My second favorite was Fiesta, then Mademoiselle and then Exotic Island. I only liked Mademoiselle 3 because it is more femine and you know I have all boys so knew I would use the other two more often. I think I was really drawn to the Chopsticks one since Jacob is part Japanese and you gotta love the take out box it comes packaged in. I can't wait to use it now. GO AWAY DARN HEADACHE!!! (thanks again mom for the birthday present)

I can't wait to get started on my brothers guest sign in book for their wedding. I just didn't know exactly how I wanted to put it together yet and then I had a dream about it on Saturday night and woke up knowing that was it. It is going to be acrylic and then it will be lined paper for the guests to sign in and then acrylic and then sign in again. The colors are a very pretty shade of green and a dark pink color. Very pretty together. I am going to use Bazzill Bling paper in the shade of green, white and pink. Gerbera daisies and pearls and rhinestones and I can't wait. I have to finish getting all the stuff for it this week and start working on it. I am going to use my chopsticks on it for sure too. I want to bind it with XL white jump rings ( I think I will have to paint them white) and then tie ribbon and tulling in all 3 colors on the rings. I can't wait to get started. I will share when I am done.

Well I just too some tylenol super strength so I hope this headache will go away.
