a good day, gone to the dog....

is there anything worse than having a good day go bad on account of your once-was-over-weight-but-has-since-lost-the-weight dog?

tuscan was insistant on taking a shower today and who in their right mind would tell their child they are not allowed to get clean??!! so after dinner, that i cooked, i put him in the shower with some of frank's shaving cream on the wall, gave him the spray head and let him to to town...he loves to make pictures on the shower wall with the shaving cream and then wash them away. while he was being a little picaso, i took advantage of the "i have to be in the bathroom" time and cleaned it! well low and behold, Fat Tar, thought he would "help" me clean up the kitchen by clearing Frank's dinner right off his plate, which i had purposely placed very far back on the kitchen counter. needless to say, he got a very hard smack on his butt and that put the bump in today's path.

otherwise it was a great day! we all slept in a little later than usual and after a delicious breakfast of my (according to frank) amazing french toast, we headed out as a family to run some errands. we ordered a 10x12 carpet for our familyroom, no more ceramic tile floor in my babies playroom! we have had enough bloody lips already, and now that they are walking...forget it! we also did some comparison shopping for tuscan's mattress and we're able to make a decision, they will be purchased tomorrow! (thank you caren for your bj's membership!) we also stopped by ashley to look at the furniture we had been eyeing up for tuscan's room....we love it even more now that we have seen it in person! i cannot wait for his birthday!!

there really arent any other updates this week. its been kind of a blah couple of weeks for me. i've sort of been stuck in a miserable rut, but hopefully with some spiritual and medical intervention i will be back in Happytown soon! i do have to say though, God is amazing and i so appreciate the way that He works through me, my family and my friends. i feel so blessed to be the mother of my 3 little boys, to have such a hardworking, understanding and loves-me-anyway kind of husband, to have a job that i love, a boss who is so willing to work with me and my crazy life, family who is there when i send out an SOS...and my new found love and support group that frank and i have joined in through our church. all in His time, and i truly believe that...
