First year

This year was the first year Emeri could play soccer. They were called the "Kneekickers". It was just a bunch of kids and they just did drills with them. Then the end of the season, they scrimmaged. It was cute seeing Emeri out there.
They had to push the ball with their head on this pic. It was cute!



Then Nevin and his football OBSESSION. This boy HAS to wear something football EVERYDAY. If I would let him he would wear his Charger's jersey everyday. Every shirt I buy for this kid, I have to make sure it's football because if I dare put another shirt on him that doesn't have football, he will throw a FIT. It's pretty cute somedays but on others it's just frustrating. One morning we were just taking Kalei to the bus stop and he saw a football shirt that he HAD to wear. We were headed out the door and he wanted to take his PJ's off and put this shirt on. I told him that it was cold outside and he couldn't just wear the shirt. He threw a fit so I just put his shirt on over his pj's. He was happy with that and out the door we went. He is to funny. He wants to watch football 24/7 so I have to turn it on NFL Network so he can watch some kind of football.
I tried uploading a video but it wouldn't work. Going to have to work on that.

NOT Me Monday







I did NOT make all the kids and hubby grilled cheese sandwiches and for myself make nothing.

Saturday night I did NOT eat Reeses Peanut Butter cups and a banana split for dinner. NOT me that would be TOTALLY wrong!! And it was NOT after all the kids were in bed. That would be just mean if they didn't get any. NOT ME!

I did NOT tell my oldest that I would make her wear her own clothes for Halloween to be Hannah Montana then turn around and buy her an outfit of Hannah Montana while we were out shopping for the others costumes.
I did NOT buy a Spider Man costume WAY to big for my boy because that's all they had.

Last night my hubby did NOT make the BEST french toast with "Texas Toast"

I did NOT find my son trying to make toast in the pan on the stove one morning last week.



I did NOT let my 4 y/o run around like this after church because I was to lazy to make her put her skirt back on.



Finally, we did NOT lose to a team in rec volleyball in 3 games. It was NOT a important game that decided who was first. US OR THEM?? I was NOT SOOOOO upset that I dwelled on it for HOURS after the game and to find myself still dwelling today. That's okay though we will NOT totally kick their rears in the tournament to win the whole thing first of December. I'm not competitive in the least bit ;-)

Catch up on the info about NOT me Monday's at My Charming Kids. It is very fun to participate in. Have a good MONDAY everyone!!

"NOT Me" Monday

Another Monday is here again. Mckmama was the wonderful creator of this, and it is very therapeutic!! I forgot that this was a Monday until I logged on to my blog and realized that there was a posting from Mckmama.

Was in the kitchen Wednesday night baking cookies and did NOT have a mouse run across my bare feet. NOT gross at all!!

Did NOT start bawling because it scared me so terribly bad.

Husband did NOT laugh at me because he thought it was funny.

Did NOT make hubby call in on Friday just so we can clean out garage and put traps down.

Did NOT take kids to pumpkin patch just so I can get more pumpkins for FREE!!

Did NOT carve my very first pumpkin on Friday night and figured out why we never did it as kids. Was NOT messy at all.

Did NOT go to Target today and buy 3 of my kids clothes and forgot to buy for Emeri (who was at school) I do NOT feel so terrible that I am going back tomorrow to buy her some.

We did NOT have family pictures taken on Saturday and did NOT have fun doing it and was NOT the most beautiful day and the trees are NOT beautiful this time of year around here. Also I will NOT make you wait until later to see the outcome of the pics.
FINALLY......

I do NOT plan on potty training my 2 1/2 year old twins this week. DO NOT wish me luck!! OH boy what fun!!

Beautiful carved pumpkin in the dark

HAND

This would be a picture of Averi's hand under the door at 9:00 pm at night. She was sound asleep when I went in there to put her back in her bed. For some reason she has made her bed to be on the floor by the door SEVERAL times before this. I just happen to walk by and see her hand on this occasion. Silly girl...just had to share this!!

"NOT me!" Monday



My first "NOT me!" Monday posting! You can join in on the rest of the Not Me's on Mckmama blog. She was the creator of this whole thing! I love reading others but thought I would take a shot at it.

I did NOT see a mouse run through the living room floor as I was changing Averi's diaper on Saturday IN the floor. My house have mice...NOT mine! I have NOT caught 4 mice in the house before this.

I did NOT catch the 5th mouse on Sunday after church. Again my house have mice...NO WAY.

I do NOT think that mice are just so gross I want to move out of this house and away from the fields that they could be coming from.

I am NOT so terribly scared of the Hantavirus that I refuse to clean out garage without my husband being here. OKAY enough about mice, but if you want to leave suggestions on what to do on this, feel free to leave me a comment.

I did NOT have an answer to my prayer this morning when I was talking to my friend about having pictures taken by her instead of using someone professionaly and then her telling me that someone from our church loves to take pictures because she (my friend) is not a good photographer.

I do NOT have to leave in 10 minutes to pick my 1st grader up from school.

Well there you go. This was fun...I will continue my "Not Me" Mondays. Stay tuned for our pictures to be posted when we have them done.

Love/Hate Fall

Love Fall:
It's not to hot and not to cold (Well somedays living in Colorado)
The trees are BEAUTIFUL when they change color
Holidays are getting closer
Football Season
Volleyball games start
Hate Fall:
Getting the flu
Getting colds
Getting strep
We are only on the 7th day of October and 3 out of the 6 of us has been sick already. Copays to the dr when you have 4 kids are not cheap. Then perscriptions...yeah those aren't cheap either. Thank goodness for medical insurance. Twins are sick today..running fever of 104. Emeri was sick over weekend. Went to dr yesterday and the strep culture was negative but with Emeri's past experiences, they are treating her with antibiotics anyways. Not sure of what this nasty virus is but it needs to go away. I pray that my immune system is stronger than theirs because I don't have time to be sick. I pray for this season to be better than last.
