A Great Day

As a mom one of the most beautiful sounds in the world is the laughter of your kids. The only thing that may top that is the sound of laughter coming from your kids with their dad. I was taking a bath something I LOVE to do. I hear my kids and their dad playing video games and they are talking and laughing it was like music to my ears. To hear them laugh at something he said and him laughing at them it was HEAVEN.

"The Man" isn't home much so when he is we try to do things the kids like to do. Their 2 favorite things are going out for Chinese food and playing video games. Which just so happens to be 2 things we all love so it all works out. He was home for 2 days so we went out school shopping and the kids got a lot of nice school outfits. They were so excited to be getting new clothes my son has a real passion for shirts. He would only buy shirts if he could I guess in his mind he's thinking "who needs pants when this shirt is just sooo cool".

As for my daughter the store is just loaded with the cutest girl clothes I would happily spend $300.00 on just her but alas my checking account will not allow it. She got some really beautiful outfits and couldn't wait to get home to try them on.

After school shopping we went to have Chinese buffet we found a buffet just around the corner from home that has the best food I have ever tasted. When we got home the kids put on a makeshift fashion show. The boy modeling his PHAT shirts and baby girl strutting her stuff in her new outfits. It was fun to see them so happy! After the fashion show they all sat down and video gamed it for the rest of the afternoon. When the weather cooled off (not by much) they all went out front to toss a baseball around.

After a bit they all came in had some ice cream and back to the games they went and I retreated to the tub. A great ending to a perfect day.

Go Fly A Kite

Yesterday I wasn't feeling to well so I limited my web surfing. I woke up today feeling better but not for long. I had just enough time to visit my favorite blogs before I started to feel light headed and my lower back is feeling like it is going to break in two.

Baby girl say's "mom why don't you go lay in bed me and brother will take care of you" That is just the cutest thing ever. I wish I could just go lay in the bed all day but I'm a mom and that's not what we do. Well unless you truely can not get out of the bed but I am not to that point.

The night before last "The man" took the kids out to fly kites in the front yard I was going to post the pictures yesterday but never got around to it. So here they are




I know the sky looks like they shouldn't be flying kites but I swear it didn't thunderstorm. No one was harmed in the filming of this adventure I have always wanted to say that. It was about to rain and it was getting close to dark. The wind had picked up to perfect kite flying speed so out they went. The kids had a blast running around seeing who's kite could go the highest. This last picture is of "The man's" kite it is hard to see the pure beauty of his kite it is a red and yellow dragon.
