Chase Looks Like Who?

This meter is SO Not correct!! Chase totally looks like a mini-Quinn.

(I don't think their "state of the art" software is very accurate...maybe it is from the state of Mississippi!)

I just can't help it...

I have to post these pics, Chase is so cute!!





He sits by the running water and goes crazy with it. He is so sad when we have to turn it off, needless to say he has been having some deep baths lately.






Jack had a pic just like this with a bath toy in his mouth when he was this age:

Not to be outdone, here he is copying what we think is cute on Chase...it just isn't quite the same though.





Before you think that we are only obsessed with Chase, here is a pic of Jack that I am ga-ga over. He washed the dishes all by himself. It took about an hour but they were actually clean at the end. All that running water did it's job. What a sweet, good, (and just recently) helpful boy!

Some Items of Business

First: Here is our new bedroom decor, we got it at IKEA and I love the bright orange color, it is fun to have a change!



Second: I have been doing some deep cleaning (horay to me!) and decided to vacuume the bottom of my closet. As I cleaned out my husband's shoes I found that he has 20 pairs of shoes. Thats as many as I have, isn't that disturbing? He is such a shoe horse! Here is a pic of the damage, I thought men weren't supposed to have so many shoes. p.s. He actually wears all of them, even the tuxedo looking ones are for his blues uniform... and he even wishes he had more shoes!


Third: We finally painted our house! It was a big and tall job, here is a sample pic to show the color (don't look at the messy toys everywhere!)

Tagged!

I got tagged, Thanks Jessica! I hope I can think of seven interesting/wierd things about myself...here we go:

1. I have a morbid curiosity about medical things, I love watching shows where they are removing giant tumors from a lady's forehead or putting some guys left hand on his right arm etc. Quinn says they are disgusting and won't watch but it is like a car wreck...i just can't help but look!

2. I would rather clean a toilet than just about anything else. I honestly don't mind cleaning bathrooms, it is probably my favorite chore. When we were kids I used to switch with my brother when we had chores, my vacuuming for his bathroom cleaning.

3. I love to plan things down to the minute. I love a perfectly timed day... example: get up, dress everyone, eat, clean, Chase nap, work out, shower, have everything ready to go right when we wakes up, do something fun, back for lunch, story time, down for naps etc etc. Everything done at exactly the right time and packed together with no wasted time...weird?

4. I wish i was a writer, not of books just of book. I would just love to write that one amazing book with a great twist at the end. A book that people read and think, "Wow, what a great plot, how did she come up with that?" I would die to have my name on the spine of a book like that, sitting in the library...waiting for people to read it. Too bad I haven't come up with a story yet!

5. I wish my husband would break something. Nothing major, just an arm or even a bad toe break would do it. Then he wouldn't have to deploy again...for the 4th time.

6. I am a compulsive thrower awayer... If i think i won't need it for a while i just throw it away. I drives my husband crazy. Occasionally when he can't find something he will ask me if i threw it away, things like his wallet, car keys, social security card, "I can't find it! I bet you threw it away."

7. I have crayon on my wall. It has been there for over a week. I clean everything else in my house on a regular basis but not crayon on walls. The last time Jack drew on the wall it was there for like 6 weeks. (I know this one is a stretch but i was trying to think of a seventh and i just sat here staring at my crayon wall.)

Ok, i will tag seven people: Jamie, Amanda, Lo, Tracy, Ali, Dani, and Stacy

Long time!

Wow, it has been a long time since i went over a month without posting. Some good news: Quinn is leaving November 30, which doesn't seem like good news except he was supposed to leave the 10 so this is 20 days longer at home.
Life has been busy and fun for us, I guess thats why I haven't posted for a long time. Here are a couple of my favorite pics from recently:


Jack decorating Chase in the bath:

JAck saing prayers with Chase before he goes to bed,
sometimes we do prayers from the bath, is that bad?

JAck has been playing with Clay and Claire alot, he loves his little munchkin friends!
