They ARE eating.....

It was OYSTERS And Jessica most definately gives them a thumbs down



Nathan on the other hand - THIS is his 2nd attempt to try & like them. He is eating them WITH a cracker.






He WANTED to give them a thumbs up



But COULDN'T!!



I wont post the picture of him actually throwing up in the bathroom garbage!!

Can YOU guess what their eating?

I seriously thought about saving these photos for a "WORDLESS WEDNESDAY" post. BUT I just couldn't wait. Here is the kids eating a favorite snack of their dads. Can you GUESS what it is??









Nathan is JUST like his dad. He DID want to like it 'cause dad does.
Jessica is JUST like her mom. She didn't like it from the start.

I must say I am PROUD of them BOTH for trying it

Wrestling

So after debating on whether or not to go, we DID go! We drove 2 hrs yesterday. We left at 545am to drive to Glasgow for a wrestling meet. Nate has only had 3 practices & cried at ALL of them. BUT he did AWESOME!!! He wrestled 4 boys weighing 39 lbs (give or take). He won 2 & lost 2. His last win, he pinned the boy!! It was so FUN!!! I camcorded all rounds but don't know how to get my computer to recognize my camcorder. It's an older cam. I have firewire or the cord to connect but can't figure out the rest. Here is one pic of I took of him yesterday

Cards

So I decided I probably should take pictures of the cards I've made. I'm NOT very creative. I try really hard. I look online at other card makers websites to get some ideas.

Wrestling

Here is my family wrestling in the front room last week. Soon I'll post a video of Nate wrestling other little boys on a mat. Nathan is VERY active & LOVES to get physical!! AND removing his clothing. Now Jessica isn't much of a fighter, she would rather be watching the boys get rough.

Awaiting the results....

Of a giveaway that I should WIN!! Because it was my birthday yesterday!! Allthingsribbon still hasn't announced me as WINNER!! LOL

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to ME!! Yesterday was my 31st Birthday. Nathan & I got up, got Jess to school, came home showered, baked my french toast oven bake for MOPS, & spent the next 2 hrs at MOPS. We came home, did the regular everyday household chores. Went & got the girls from school, my 10 yr old cousin & my DD, ran to the store for taco makings. Not sure what I was thinking but on Monday I signed Nate up for wrestling. He has practice 3 days a week for 1 hr. Right at supper time 530-630pm. I don't feel like I can feed him before, because I don't want him to go there with a full stomach then get tossed around only to throw up all over the other kid. By the time we get out of there & home it's almost 7pm. Too late to come home & try & cook. I'm just not looking forward to the next few months. But I AM soo excited to see him wrestle. The first night he sobbed like a BIG ole baby. A kid "bubba" helped him. Thank you Bubba!! The next night "bubba" was not there cause he was sick. Nate cried again. I dragged him out on the mats & put him in line & walked away. When it's all over he LOVES it!! He has a meet this coming weekend already, not sure yet if we'll be going or not. I told him if he cries at his next practice I wont take him to the out-of-town competition.
Anyways, we made it home last night after practice, ate, & had some cake & ice cream!! Neil took the kids to the store the night before to buy my gifts. He let them run around the store tossing a few things in the cart. I got from them...some purple dishcloths, a fish shaped soap dispenser, a rose scented candle, & really cute pink fuzzy slippers that were 2 sizes too small!! :-)
