Monster Trucks and the Potty

As promised i have taken a break from my love affair with my books. LOL. I have been cleaning today. bathrooms, dusting, sweeping, and laundry. I need to mop....but i might save that for tomorrow. Anyway, Ethan had a blast at the Monster truck show. Bad News was one of his favorite. His Grammy said they left early b/c he was getting tired. But, he still had a wonderful time. By the look on his face you can tell he was having a great time! The following day the kids dragged there grammy and nana on a picnic. peanut butter and fluff sandwiches. LOL. Ethan was not ready to come home. But, he did stay home yesterday, sick as i had mentioned before. He was still not his full self today, but i told him to try school and if he needed me, to call. I have not been called yet. I think he is fine today.

Brooklynn has been using the potty some! YAY! I am so proud of her! She of coarse has to be naked all day! What is it with my kids. They only potty train naked! But, atleast she is happy. I have not had to wash diapers in a week! Wow! i was used to every other day!
Alex and i had a great kid free weekend together. We pretty much just stayed home, but we really enjoyed the company. Alex fiddled with the new antenna for the most part, and well i read from my books. :) Well, i am off to take Brooke to the potty and then get some crayons out for her. Hope everyone is having a great week!

Almost finished

I just finished the 3rd book! WOW! That was intense and good. I don't know how i can go back to my life knowing i only have 1 book left in the series! Aaaah!

Anyway, tomorrow i am going to try and have a normal day. Upload the pics from Ethans monster truck show and so on. I need to clean the bathrooms too.

Ethan was home sick today. Horse cough and snotty nose. Fun! But, i think he will go back tomorrow.

Oh.........and i can't forget........CONGRATUALTIONS TO KEVIN AND JENNIFER ON THERE 1ST PREGNANCY!!! they are due in May! We are super excited for them.

Twilight Series

I have been sucked into a great saga of books. Twilight is the first. It is 500 pages and i read it in a day in a half. I am bragging a bit b/c i am impressed with myself! LOL. I couldn't belive i could read that much. Anwyay, this series will take over your life. I was a little skeptical at first to start it b/c it is about vampires. And i was thinking about the classic blood sucking and killing people. Nothing like that at all. This is a love series. And it will literally suck you in. I gave it to my SIL yesterday. She ended up not working and finished the book in 3 hours! But, she reads all day so i figured she would read it fast. Even she could not wait for the next one. There are 4 books in the series right now. I started New Moon yesterday after getting home from dropping the kids off. (My kids free weekend!) I am on page 200 right now and this one is almost 600 pages. It is not as good so far as book 1, but i have already been told book3 and 4 are as good as 1 if not better. So....i just have to get through this one. It is still easy to get through even though it is not intense.
Anyway, check out the website and read about the author. TheTwilightSaga.com Stephanie Meyer (sp?) is a 29 yr old stay at home mom to 3 boys who has been writing these books. The movie to the first book comes out November 21 and there are movie trailers up on You tube. If your looking for a good book, then go to your local book store and pick up Twilight. Just give it a try and let me know what you think.

Monster truck pictures are coming soon! Ethan went with his grammy last night!

A miracle occured in the Wolfe House!

Last night, sense we are to cheap to pay for TV, we were outside putting up our new antena. Kids were put to bed and i was getting ready to go inside and read from a new book.

We hear a cat, and i look at Alex and my heart sank. I looked at him and excuse my language, i said " i am going to s*$t my pants if................." and then Tigger walked out of the woods!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our cat who will be 9 in november who never left the house and who has been gone a month is alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our huge fat cat is now skin and bones, but she is home and we are so inlove!! Tigger was the lap cat, the one who slept with us all night. And wehave missed that so much. And now, she is here! Lacey our other house cat is not to happy. She was enjoying being head Queen cat. She is acting VERY pissy now. But, that is how she was when Tigger was here.

And the crazy part is, i have been dreaming that she was alive. We said that Alex's grandpa would let us know if she was in heaven and safe. He was obviously letting me know she wasn't. Thank you so much Grandpa!

We kept saying, summer was not the Wolfe/Reeve season and fall was going to be great. And so far, it is!!!!!!!

Video if Ethan singing

This is a cute little video i shot of Ethan singing the song i hear all day now! The volume is not great so i am going to type first what he sings so you can make it out! Turn volume up so you can make sure you hear it :) Oh and this is from my camera phone so it is a little fuzzy.

"3 little monkeys swining in the tree singing Mr. Alligator you can't get me (hand movements) Snapped that monkey out of the tree"
Repeats but with 2 monkeys and then 1 monkey
Last line he says which is so cute is "missed me, missed me, now you gotta kiss me (kisses hands)"



He checked out fine at the doctors. Just a viral infection they think. So he got to stay home and drive me crazy! We did have some fun decorating for fall though today. Putting some pumpkins out and a few halloween decorations. Not to much. We are going to go shopping for a few more at the dollar store soon.

All the new CBS shows air tonight so my lonely butt will be in front of the TV! Have a great night!

Sore swollen throat

This goofy pic is from yesterday at lunch!

My poor baby has his first sore throat. He is having a hard time eating. When we glanced in it today it was bright red, swollen and white spots. Guess he is off to the doctor tomorrow to get some medication. I don't think Ethan has been sick in almost 2 years. Amazing, huh?! He did not get sick once last year. His doctors mentioned it at his check-up. And for being in preschool last year too, that was amazing. I think he is a carrier. Brooklynn gets sick quite a bit.

The weekend has been pretty good. We had lunch with Thomas, Jess, and Jackson yesterday. After that i dropped alex and the kids off at home and had some MUCH NEEDED me time. Alex stays at my parents now to save on gas money and has only been coming home on his days off. We have been doing this a month or so now. It has helped us a lot in the financial department! But, i defiently needed a few hours of me time. After that we went out shopping all of us to get Alex a new Antenna for the TV. He is happy, hopefully.

After much talking, he has decided to stay with the company he is with now. We are giving the house until the end of contract date and after that we are taking it off and staying here. We have come up with a few things we want to do here. We are going to try to modernize our bathroom. That should be pretty cheap. And then set money back to redo the flooring in the house. I want to get this carpet out! So, hopefully once we decide on what we want, we can save enough so in 6 months we can do it. That is exciting though.

Well, i guess i am off to finish watching Ladie and the Tramp with the kiddos. Tomorrow i need to get some pediasure (and i have coupons for it) for him to drink with his throat. That way he can stay healthy. And first thing in the morning, call the doc and get him in. This is when it sucks he is allergic to penicillan. Its time for that nice $50 antibiotic! Ick!

Hope everyone had a great weekend :)
