My brother..

OH my sweet little brother.. I love him so..

We took Roman to the park yesterday..

I got home from work and Roman was in the best mood.

That Augmentan rocks my world.

My little brother Tim was having so much fun taking Roman down the slides!

Tim goes on a mission June 26th. I am sad.

I will miss him. Roman will forget him.

He will be able to teach my kid a foreign language when he gets home though.

That's a plus.

He is going to the Brazil Porto Allegre South Mission.

Roman loves his uncle Timmy.

Jessica loves her brother Timmy.

We all love Timmy.

Mouthwatering Monday!

So I decided that every Monday I am going to blog about my favorite meal or recipe that I prepared/had the previous week. This week.. hands down.. my cousin Sandy's recipe for Chicken wonton salad. Seeing that I was sicker than ten dogs all week long and literally did not cook one other thing other than dino nuggets and madarian oranges, I do not have a lot to compare too. BUT even if I cooked gourmet meals all week long, I am sure that this would be the recipe I would share. BECAUSE IT IS YUMMMMY! My dad and my hubby downed any what would have been leftovers last night.

Chicken Wonton Salad

3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
½ package wontons, cut into thirds
1 head iceberg (or romaine) lettuce, torn into pieces
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained ( I DONT USE>> GROSS)
1 (4 ounce) package slivered almonds, toasted
¼ c sesame seeds, toasted
1 bunch green onions, chopped

Dressing:
4 T sugar
1 t salt
¼ t pepper
4 T white wine vinegar
½ c vegetable oil

Boil chicken breasts until cooked and slice into small pieces (I prefer to cook in pan versus boil). Fry wontons in vegetable oil until crispy and cool on paper towels. In a large salad bowl, mix together chicken and wontons with lettuce, oranges, water chestnuts, almonds, green onions and sesame seeds. Toss with dressing (which has been mixed well) and serve.

I hope you all try it and ENJOY! HAPPY EFFING MONDAY!

What's this crap?!?!?

What is this you ask?

This is yet another antibiotic for my poor son.

Last Monday/Tuesday (can't remember) my poor

boy had a double ear infection.

After a day of this yesterday:

Roman: "UHHH AAHH H MEEE MEE UUHH"

Me: "Whats the matter baby?"

Roman: "UHHHHHH"

Roman: (following me all over the house every where I went) "UHH AAHH ME"

Me: (still being sickly myself) " WHy is my child so ornery and grouchy and miserable"

So I called the Pedi and took him in last night at 8:40 and sure enough the 14 DOSES of antibiotic he was on had not even helped the double ear infection.

Poor little man. So they gave us Augmenten.

So in 10 days we go back to the pedi to talk about TUBES.

Anyone familiar with the pro's/con's of tubes?

If it gets my kids some relief I am totally game.

Summer.. please.. if you are listening.. do not be SHY. Hurry and join us.

Recipe for disaster!

What does ONE Super Cranky working mom...

PLUS

One SUPER GROUCHY TEETHING TODDLER

EQUAL????

Popsicles for DINNER!

I just might be the best mother ever..

At least Roman seems to think so.

I hate teething. It is rotten, it sucks and it makes me want to cry..

I can only imagine what it does to Roman.

Holy Schnauze!

So..
I got highlights the other day..
(thanks to my little sister)
and I decided to take pictures of them to send
to my best friend Candice in California
since Meg will be doing hers in a
a few days...
So I do a few self portraits..
I then load them on my computer...
and I am awe stuck by the size of my nose..
Friends, Family and acquittance's...
we are no longer speaking..
how could you let me go through life with a nose
this FREAKING BIG! And not tell ME!
I am saving up for a nose job now..
I applied for a second job tonight at
MCDONALD'S!

I love this shirt!

The shirt reads:
" Call a vet because these puppies are SICK!"
I love attitude tee's.
This kid rocks the attitude that goes along with this tee!

Single Mother no more!

A few reasons I am glad Chuck will be home tonight...


1. An extra set of eyes for a sneaky little boy! What is
it with kids and dog food. GROSS!

2. Laundry, I am sick and tired of doing it by myself,.

3. I swear if I have to change one more poopy butt I will
just give up and go to Mexico for the rest of the winter.

4. Someone else to laugh at a cute naked bum. Soon after this picture was taken
I had to run grab something from my bedroom and was back in the living room in 20 seconds
to the suprise of Roman pee and poop on my hardwood floors.
