No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk!

Everytime I unload the dishwasher I make sure to put the liners in Brylee's bottle before I put them away in the cupboard. That way they are ready to go.
Well today my husband did the sweetest thing and did the dishes for me. Seriously, I was so touched. If my dishes are done my whole house just feels so much cleaner to me. He knows its a big deal and it is speakin my lovin language. BUT...today he forgot to put the liners in the bottles. Too bad I am such a complete moron and didn't quite pouring the milk. I just kept thinking what the heck is going on with this bottle as I watched the milk pour right through the entire thing onto the counter and the floor. Haha. I thought it was kinda funny. I had to send a text to Rhett to show him what I had done.

"one of those moms"

so, since my kids havent been feeling very well i seriously havent left my house since last sunday for church. rhett was home today so i took the chance to leave the house all by myself for a minute. but i seriously didnt even take a look in the mirror, i just dashed out the door for some fresh air. i decided to go to the grocery store and i promise you i never, ever run into anybody at the store unless i look like crap. seriously, no make up today, hair pulled back in a horrid messy ponytail, and spandex with a sweatshirt. yikes. and of course i run into people i know. haha, i was a bit mortified. i always swore i would never be one of those moms. yep, im ashamed, im officially one of those moms. even though i secretly vowed to myself that i would never go out in public looking like that again, i will never judge another mom again. haha, ya never know what kind of day or week that they have had.

update

Okay, so I really do think that this grapejuice thing works! We have been drinking it like by the gallons. Tacey, who normally gets soo super sick anytime she is exposed to anything really did good this week! She woke up one morning and threw up a tiny bit and that was the end of it. Seriously! She was asking for oatmeal and chicken nuggets the rest of the day. haha, too bad I wouldn't give them to her. I have been keepin my girls on the BRAT diet just in case.
So, I really do hate to get on my blog just to complain, but can I just say the the stomach flu just sucks and has ruined my week. This was supposed to be such a special week. Tacey's birthday was on Saturday and then she was SUPPOSED to start preschool on Tuesday. Luckily everyone was healthy for the party but Tacey didn't make it to one day of school this week ): Honestly my kids really weren't even that sick, but my BIGGEST pet peeve EVER is when parents take their sick kids anywhere and everwhere (school, church..). So, I try really hard to be considerate and not expose everyone else when my family is sick or still could be contagious. Okay, I swear I am done complaining now(: And if you hadn't noticed, I must sound like the most annoying, paranoid mama ever.
But anyways, next time you think your family has been exposed to the nasty stomach bug drink a glass of grapejuice three times a day and it is supposed to really help fight the dang bug off (100% juice). But, I have heard lots of times, DON'T drink it if you are already sick...MESSY. Anyways, hope this helps somebody else, I sure am glad I came across it! I know it could have and should have been a lot worse for us this week.

Science Experiment

so if you know me you know that i am a bit if a germ freak, even more when it comes to my kids. i try and keep them in a bubble so they arent constantly exposed to all the nasty crap going around. no worries, they still hang out with friends and go to church. but i did learn the hard way with tacey. she got very sick very young and had a rough couple years, so i vowed to become more careful and i feel like i really have done a good job at keeping my kids healthy. anways, onto my experiment. over the weekend while at a friends house our entire family got expsed to the stomach bug....my worst nightmirror. so i did my research and read and read and read up on how you could prevent it. turns out grape juice is the magic answer. something to do with the acidity...you can read about it at grammysuesnews.blogspot.com . so my family just started guzzling grape juice like crazy...everone except for brylee, she only likes milk. well, brybry woke up yesterday morning throwing up. the rest of us are still drinking the juice and just fine, i guess we will find out within the next couple days if this really is the magic juice. pray for us, i hate, hate, hate the flu. and i have the most queasy stomach ever when it comes to vomit. luckily brylee has been amazing. she prefers using the toilet to throw up in and gets excited to clean up and soap up afterwards. what an awesome one year old i have. well, i will keep ya updated on how the little experiment goes. wouldn't that be soo cool if it really worked!!
ps: i wrote this post on my droid, so it is a little sloppier than normal(:

Early Merry Christmas!!

Last night after dance class and grocery shopping I promised Tacey that we would go look at some Christmas lights on our way home. I thought I would quickly drive through one of the neighborhoods close to our house. But as I was turning around at a dead end I got the car stuck! Seriously, I can't believe I got our car stuck. So I pick up my cell phone and try to call Rhett to have him come help me and it says my cell phone has been disconnected....what the heck! Luckily I had the stroller in the trunk. So I loaded that girls in the stroller and we headed home in 30 degree weather at 7:30 at night. This was about a mile walk, which normally would not be that bad, except for that the girls are wearing jackets, not coats, and Tacey is in her dance clothes. But I think the girls seriously had some fun, they got to see the christmas lights up close! haha. Brylee didn't start crying until the end, her poor hands were soo cold. Anyways this super sweet guy stopped and gave me a reflector to put on the stroller. Everytime a car would come I would hurry and throw the stroller into the snow off the side of the road cause seriously no one could see us. But I am happy to say We Made It Home Safe!
When I get home I have a surprise waiting for me!
Rhett had just bought me this little beauty as my early Christmas Gift. Which explains why my phone wasn't working and had been disconnected. Great Timing Right, haha.
Anyways, this is the coolest phone ever! (Droid 2) I absolutely Love It!! Thanks Rhett for the awesome Gift.

My Obesessions

Obsession One:
CHIZ'S RANCH
Soo Good. I'm not even much of a ranch person but I could drink this stuff! The only store I can ever find it at though is Broulum's. I am not very good at eating my vegetables but since I have been buying this stuff I love my veggies. The calories and fat from the ranch probably cancel everything else out, but at least I'm eating them(:

Obsession Two:
MY NEW CANDLES
I get so excited for fall so I can burn my favorite candles. I just found some huge pumkin spice candles for $5 and my house smells DELICIOUS! Love It!

Obsession Three:
OF COURSE...
MY GIRLS

They are constantly holding hands in the car. It melts my heart everytime I look in the backseat and see this(:
LOVE THEM

What the Heck??

This is what I woke up to in MY BED at 3am this morning. I kept rolling into it in my sleep and could not figure out what it was. Finally I woke up kind of enough to pick it up and ask Rhett what the heck it was and he said "oh yeah, I just took that off for ya." Then he rolled back over and went to sleep.

Turns out he had gotten up in his sleep and decided to remove our light fixture.  I asked him why this  morning and he said he has no idea. Must have been a funny dream.
Rhett has done some funny things in his sleep since we have been married like take pictures off the wall and hand them to me and lots lots and lots of sleep talking but I think this is by far the funniest.

Tuesday

Well our camera has been broken for way too long, but I promise there will be pictures soon. But I can give a little Warren Family Update. Our family has been super busy, a little too chaotic actually. Rhett is going to school full time and taking some major hard classes, and in September I started massage therapy school in Blackfoot. It's only two days a week and last ten months. And I am also the ast cheer coach at Rigby. I went from just being at home with Tacey all day to it seems like NEVER being at home anymore. But I can't complain, life is great. Tacey is getting smarter by the minute, always saying new words and doing new things. She is 18 months now and such an incredible little girl. I am soo blessed for such a perfect family.
