Sometimes helping mama in the kitchen baking Easter bunny cookies all weekend makes everything okay.

Happy Easter y'all!

Are you THAT crazy mom??

This morning we hit a community Easter Egg Hunt at the park here where I live.

We arrived early, found a spot on the sideline, and waited patiently until the ding.

I was pointing out the brightly colored eggs all around the area and telling him that

was where he needed to head to. He was SO excited & couldn't wait to run for it!

Unfortunately, his excitement didn't last long. Amongst all the happy kids were greedy

moms & dads.... mostly moms. And they were CRAZY ASS BITCHES for some candy.

Mostly I blame the city people for not having very many eggs.. However, the immaturity

on the parental side of things didn't help out the situation either. Grimy & selfish...

I'm serious people! Grown WOMEN were running around like nut jobs grabbing eggs

for their kids before the kids themselves could get to them. Including my sweet little man.

This was his first big Easter hunt & it was ruined because of out of control parents.

He walked out of that park carrying his football basket the same way it came in.... 

Empty.

I tried making it up to him by letting him have one of his Easter gifts early AND cookies before lunch.

Because after hearing "mom where all my eggs go?" over & over during the hunt, I'd do pretty much anything for him. 

Easter Eggs!

Last year we attempted to dye eggs with our little man and it turned into a big messy FAIL. Not to mention Drey giving zero interest about who, what, where, why... 

But it was a big hit this year! He was so proud of his eggs. And then he wanted to smash them all.

"can I drink this dad?"

{isn't he the sexiest man you've ever seen...for real doe?}

"okay guys, now we have to color this. everyone do it"

We can take it back out when it's all green?  

Yes but we have to wait.  

Oooooh. Don't touch mom, we have to wait. Then we can break them.

 "it's pink?! put that one in the blue dad. just put it in this blue cup"

 

"mom, dad... let's break these outside. let's throw them on the ground!"

{aren't they soooo pretty haha}

Happy EasterEggDying Day to us!

{note: lazyyy saturday. don't judge our appearance.. just don't}

Sadly, Ty will be gone for work the rest of this week including Easter Sunday! :((

Sometimes {WTF edition}

Sometimes when I'm trying to find Dreydan & he's not answering me, I know he's up to something mischievous. 

Like this.....

Before I can do anything else, like find out exacly what he's doing, I run and grab my camera.

{i just had to, look at that little bum...}

But for real tho, WTF is he doing?!

Just eating out of the Cool Whip carton, no big deal.

Our Convo:

What ya doin' Drey?

Just eating this marshmallow out of here.

That's not a marshmallow...

It's yummy.

I'm sure it is.

And I got it all by myself mom! I did!

Yeah... Where are your undies?

I take them off 'cause Mcqueen said I have to wear him and not my undies!

{stood staring for a sec}

Okay well how come you don't have him on then?

Just go watch your show mom, I'm fine... I'm fine.

Seriously? Kids are so weird!

But this little weirdy has my heart wrapped around those grimey little fingers, love him!

My St. Paddy's.

We celebrated Saturday night... didn't everybody?
 

Here's what you need to know:

+ i ate wayyy too many shamrock cookies

+ had wayyyy too much spinach dip & green chili

+ stayed up wayyy too late {fur real, what's sleep?}

 + hubby didn't win the pot of freakin' gold. wtf?! he always wins...

+ children ran around like wild indians

+ ate more shamrock cookies & spinach dip {couldn't keep my grimy hands away}

+ everyone got fat, okay just me

+ fought with a 2yr old about sneaking cupcakes off the counter, he won

+ watched wreck-it ralph twice in 1 hour. how does that happen?

+ prayed no child threw up green frosting while spinning in circles...

+ green, green, green! that's all i saw alllll night

As always, we love our Vernal trips!

{post soon about the rest of our visit}

{he just wouldn't be the man i fell in love with if he was sticking to the "wear green" rule}

 {green vanilla pudding w/lucky charms for the babies}

 {moscato frosting cupcakes, nomnomnom!}

{someone please kill me because i can't stand the cuteness of these two!}

{this girl. she my booooo!}

What did y'all do for St. Patrick's?!?!

Tell me tell me tell me!

Sometimes {just because}

Sometimes on a nice chilly-warm day, we go to the park until the chill reaches our bones.

This little man never complains....

 

Just because.

Confessions

My hubby gets home today! 

After another 8 looong days, I get to squeeze him in my arms, snuggle him on the couch, make him dinner, watch him play with our boy who misses him oh so much, and...other stuff. Ahem...

I confess...I have a major problem with chips. Like eating them ALL gone the same day I buy them. Not just any chips tho, the Kettle Cooked Mesquite BBQ chips. They are soooo yummy.

~

I confess...I don't match my socks. Ever. I match my hubby's and my 2yr old's socks, but when it comes to mine, it's every man for itself! And I'm totally fine with it.

~

I confess...Yesterday at the DMV, I wanted to find that lady who told me I didn't need my marriage certificate and punch her till she died. stop being melodramatic... okay I didn't want her to die. Just become unconscious or something.

~

I confess...When people tailgate me, it takes everything I have NOT to slam on my brakes. Nothing irritates me more than irresponsible and annoying drivers. Get your shit together people!

~

I confess...I may or may not have road rage issues.

~

I confess...When Ty is away, I have bad dreams about Dreydan dying in the worst ways. Just last night, I had a dream that we were at the park and Drey was playing on the metal bars. One of them broke off, he fell to the ground and the bar came down and smashed his head in. I wake up crying EVERY TIME and I get him from his bed and bring him in with me.

~

I confess...I will do unforgivable things to get something that I want bad enough. Or something I feel that I have deserved ever since mine was broken in a foreign country.... Don't. Ask.

~

I confess...I kinda Dear John-ed a missionary like 1 week after I met Tyler. Does it count if I actually never wrote him a letter telling him I met someone...oops. {he's over it btw}

~

I confess...I drink too much soda. I feel it in my bones. Hi, my name is Emily and I'm addicted to caffeine. 

~

I confess...My phone is always on silent. I miss A LOT of calls but for some reason I don't want it to ring/vibrate/bug me when I don't wanna be bugged. Mmmkay!!

~

I confess...I will always always always have a soft spot in my heart for the elderly, children, gingers, and soldiers.

~

I confess...I kinda like when Ty is away because then I can eat whatever I want. I don't have to cook big meals and can just eat my tuna melts every night.

Have something you wanna confess? You know you do....

First Haircut!

He's been in desperate need of one, lets be honest. And despite everyone, and I mean that literally, everyone {no matter what he wears} thinking he's a girl when we're out in public, I didn't want to.

First of all, I want praises & hallelujah's from y'all. I was not that emotional mom who cried, I was not that weird mom who was sneaking locks of her child's hair into a mini zip lock bag and sniffling her sadness away {that's weird and you and everyone else knows it}, nor was I that crazy mom who was in asian tourist squat position trying to get THEE best photo's of her kids first haircut.

I was totally normal. Walked in {with no appointment} and in my head yelled, this little man needs a cut! {high kick included}. Woke from my momentary gaze and walked to the front desk.

I reallyyyy wanted Ty to come with me, but he's a dude and reallyyyy didn't care. So I figured what the hell, imma put on my big girl panties and do this mono y mono. Which I did and everything was just fine.

Here's yer proof!
