Christmas Time is here!

I am starting to love this time of year more and more! Today was such a raining day...while all the Californians were complaining I was at work wishing I could be at home snuggled up in my blankie with a good book (btw just finished Sarah Palin's book...AWESOME!) and some coffee! I got a call from Mr. Universe as I was leaving work, he said look up at the mountains...the clouds broke long enough to see the snow covered peaks! YIPPEE! Christmas time is finally here in Cali! Ethan has been begging for us to take him "snowing" that means he wants to go play in the snow! Haha! One problem....we don't have snow clothes...hello we are "Californians"...if I can't wear my flip flops then I can't go! :-) Chances are Ethan will get to go "snowing here soon! I hope everyone is taking a deep breath and enjoying this time of year! God is soooo good and sooo faithful!

Our Lil' Boy Otis is here!!

Saturday came and Saturday went....we took the 2 hr. drive to Bakersfield on Saturday to pick lil' Otis up....isn't he cute?? Yes he is a Boston Terrier and not a Chihauhau! He is a tiny lil' guy, the lady we bought him from said he was the runt of the litter and all of his siblings were 3 lbs @ 6 wks but not this lil' guy he weighed in @ a whopping 1 lb 9 ozs. Ethan is loving this dog soo much, although he does keep calling him Presley. Here is a 2 1/2 yr olds logic for you...yesterday after church we were home playing with Otis and out of the blue Ethan said, "Mommy Presley have a baby." (the grammar is intentional b/c that is exactly how he said it) I responded with a typical, "Oh yeah..did she?" He then said, "Yeah Mommy it was a lil' boy and she named him Otis!" I thought that was a classic moment and of course as any mom would agree...we all believe our child is the smartest on the planet! Otis is missing his doggie mom but we are doing are best to help him adjust! Kuddos to my hunky hunk Mr. Universe...he is getting up with the lil' guy at every yelp in the middle of the night...you go baby!! I will follow with more pics of this lil' guy as he grows....he is sooo (ugly) cute, but for those who know me well know that I am partial to Boston Terriers!!

New puppy coming our way

Well our latest and greatest news is.....no I'm not pregnant again!! We are adding an addition to the family though. Since my dog Presley passed away in December we have had a broken heart lil' boy. He lived for each moment to tackle or wrestle Presley whether it be out of love or roughness! You would have thought that Presley would have ran for the hills when she saw Ethan a full blow 2 yr. old coming her way, but she did just the opposite of that. She loved him (I think) just as much as he loved her! There hasn't been a day that goes by when her name isn't brought up in this house. So the first part of January me and Eddie made the choice to get him another "Presley dog." We have picked a boy this time (we will see how that goes)! Now the score will be even 3 boys and 3 girls! Anyways, his name that Ethan picked out is Otis. He lives in Bakersfield now but we will drive to get him on Saturday. So stay tuned for pics of our new baby boy!!!

Tired Mommy of 2

Hence the name "Tired Mommyof 2." These kiddos are my pride and joy. I only thought my world was complete with Mr. Ethan and now God has blessed me with Lil' Missy Olivia! Although these kids are my breath of life....they also take the breath right out of me at times! My hat is officially off to every woman who has ever tackled motherhood and made it out alive!
