The Bows that were made yesterday!

Lorina-- this is for you!

I knew someone would ask to see pics I was just to lazy to put them on with the actual post. I guess I was all crafted out. Oh well such is life. I know they are not the best but they will do and I made them for alot less than I woulda paid for one. So cost wise it was a good choice!

And while they slept...

So this afternoon.. I decided to try some more bow making.. I would say it went fairly well. Mostly sicne both my kids went down for a nap today.. lol! this rarely happens.... so I was feeling kinda crafty and wasn't sure how long I would get... so I began making hair bows for Caitlynn.. I made one very LARGE bow and three medium ones and 3 small ones.. Cait has always liked the smaller bows... needless to say when she woke up I showed them to her.. I then asked her which ones she liked best..
Cait: she grabs all of the bows except the big one
Me: I kinda laugh and say well so you don't like the big one huh? but I worked so hard on it..
Cait: ok I guess I like it
Cait: how do I do it...
Me: I begin putting them all in her hair like I would if it was done.. I get all 7 bows in her hair.. I laugh and tell her how cute she is...
Cait: she blushes and get a funny look on her face and says " moms your so silly"
Me: laughing really hard.. as I begin taking them out..
Lol I have to say I think this child of mine is going to be giving me a good run for my money someday relatively soon.. Oh well I am sure my mother would get a kick out of it! Either that or she would tell me what goes around comes around one of the two I am sure!

Health Update..

My test have all come back fine. I am feeling somewhat better. Someday's are better than others. The Dr. said that if things get bad come back and we'll talk some more about things. I know I am not even sure what that means! Anyhow, he did say that for now he was satisfied to tell me that he doesn't think there is anything major wrong that my body can't correct on it's own. So I guess we will wait to see if the good Dr is right... it is still up for debate. But I am hoping that he is right. I would like to feel better and stay better for awhile. It seems like these past couple of years I can't get through the tail end of the winter weather without having some major health issue. But here's to hoping for a happier healthier tomorrow.

Liv looks like she's about ready to eating stick she is holding!

Lazy... to be or not to be...??

Well I am sorry I know I am just being plain lazy in updating my blog. We are just so very busy. We are currently trying to just get the summer going which seems to be harder than I thought. We had friend from Parawon visit followed by friends from Cali visit.. (at some point I will get those pics posted)Aaron took a trip to Colorado to see his dad who isn't doing very well health wise. We have Ammon's birthday coming up followed by Aaron's. Amidst all of this I am having some health issues. Not fun.. Long story short.... Originally we thought I was expecting again.. I am not. However, my dear friend aunt flow has decided to behave in a strange manner. So I went to see the doc.. he has ran some tests and yet again they show normal.. tyroid normal.. pituary.. normal ( they thought I had a tumor) they have thought maybe I miscarried... I now have to have a mammogram.. apparently some on my symptoms could be signs of breast cancer.. ok ok ok ... don't get all freaked out here I am ok.. I am sure that my test will come back fine they always do.. it seems to usually be an oversite of some nature or the other. Anyhow, in lou of all my headaches, nose bleeds and symptoms of being pregnant but not.. things have been a little haywire around here. I will try to be better and get the rest of the fun things we have been doing up on here. Soon I promise!
Our new house and neighborhood has been great and we are really loving it out here in Saratoga. So all is well in Spencer land.

As of lately!

Ok so I know I have way lazy in keeping my blog up.. so here is what we have been up to..
Currently we are working on our yard, we are digging up grass to make a new flower bad.. when its done it'll kinda have a rocky mountain feel to it. I have forgotten how much time yards take.. although I have to admit I am kinda enjoying working in the yard it wears me out and makes me soo sore, but the results are worth it.
Aaron will be going to Africa this summer for a month and then his schooling will be all finished up. Yeah! I am sooo PROUD of him, he has worked so hard! Thanks hon for all your hard work on our behalf!
Moi.. well there is not much to say there. I just had my birthday.. oh goodie I am one year older, at some point I am sure I will get the photo's from that uploaded on here. We have yet to start my salon in the house yet.. I can only begin to imagine the work that is going to take, but maybe in the fall we will start it. We shall see.
Ammon he is turning 4 here in a few weeks. WOW! that goes sooo fast! I can't believe this time next year I will be registering him for kindergarten! Anyhow, he is still way in to action figures.. ok ok mostly just spiderman which he has been obssessed with since I can remember( I blame Aaron for this)
Cait... well what more can I say other than she is 2 going on 16. Lol! She is so smart, and I think that she can out eat her her big brother any day of the week. I am begining to think she will eat us our of house and home long before Ammon does. She is all potty trained.. (I love that)
So I guess pretty much for now this is what we are up to. We are keeping super busy and that I do love. As much as I used to look at work with such hardship I now am looking at it like it makes my life nicer and happier. The little things aren't such chores anymore. I guess in a sense being a mom isn't so bad and being home gives me the chance to make life great for my little ones.. and that makes it all worth it.

Locked In!

Ok here is my scary experience...
Aaron came home a little early today to work on yard stuff and finish up final projects and stuff So after I finished mowing the yard and I went inside and took a shower. I wasn't in long but Aaron had fallen asleep while I was in the shower. I had put the kids in front on cartoons with snacks. Well I got dressed quick and went to check the kiddos...( we all know my children have a mind of their own) when I got down stairs Cait was still on the couch.. eating frozen rasberries mind you... upon me asking where she got them... she said" Ammon get them for me I hungry!" I questioned her further while taking away the frozen rasberries.. "and where is your brother" she then says "outside" now my kids playing in the back yard is not uncommon.. but usually they ask or should I say tell me. So outside I go... nope he is not on the play yard or the sad box where he normally is... I go to the side yard.. by now I am begining to panick! I am yelling loudly AMMON WHERE ARE YOU? I go back in side to check the basement... still yelling for AMMON TO COME OUT! By now I am like Aaron I can't find Ammon! I go to the other side yard but no Ammon... just as I am about to turn and go back and search the upstairs ( sometimes Ammon finds it funny to hide from me) I hear crying and a " mommy help me I am stuck" and I stop. I say ok Ammon where are you " I in here!" more crying " help me mommy" It then dawns on me that he is in Aarons car in the trunk... I try to open it and well its locked.. So I run inside get the keys and out he comes! WHew! I thought I was going to loose it! Now, the interesting thing here is that the car was locked! Aaron and I have no idea how he got in there? When we asked him he said " I push the button and get in there" we have no cue what he is talking about.
I am just sooo glad that he is ok ! Whew! much relief!
