Monogamy? Oh no, not from me.

As you may or may not have noticed, I updated my "friends" list on the side. Although I'm sure i missed a few, this was basically a way of divulging those whom I stalk. Take a close look. You might see your best friend that I've never met, your sister who doesn't even know me, or possibly even your husband's blog. But don't hate. I never committed to a monogamous blogging relationship. And I never will. Take it or leave it... this is the DTR. I got enough love to go around. So don't dump me now (Laura Anderson!! ha ha!)

To myself I would like to say....

WELCOME HOME! After nearly 20 months of being on the hunt, 2 cities, 6 rejected properties, we have found a place to call home and here she is...
My favorite space....

The kitchen opens right to the family room. The bottom picture is taken from the kitchen.

Where you will not be showering.......

........ but I will be!

Not to be too concerned though. In our effort to lure in visitors, a picture of the guest suite........

Not pictured is the 42" TV that will be at your dispense, or the bathroom that has it's own entrance. (Not its own entrance to the bedroom, but to the house.) Somehow we got to keep all their TV's, so the one we own will go right in this room.

Move in date: sometime after Sept 17th. Make your plans accordingly!

I kid you not...

I think I'm being stalked. And I'm for real. Would somebody please tell Heidi Montag to stop following me around? I mean I let it fly as a coincidence when I saw her and boy toy in their car a couple of times, but seriously, can't a girl enjoy a Saturday morning with her family, alone, with no one following her? Apparently Ms Montag thinks that is too much to ask as she casually showed up at Noah's bagels minutes behind me. I had the manners to not follow her to Coffee Bean right next door. And then I see her at Restoration Hardware ordering the same bed as Yosh and I? Seriously, that is too much. In fact I'm so disgusted that I don't think I'll get that bed anymore. Or the nightstands that she ordered to go with it. And then she had the audacity to call Spencer right in front of me and tell him... this has got to stop. Heidi, no more "coincidental" show ups please. Unless you plan to say hi to me next time. And then maybe, maybe, we can be friends...

OK I've been getting harassed, mainly by my husband. Seriously been in a blogging slump. But I'm going to pull it together for at least 5 min to put together a decent post!

Yosh has loved this classic dialogue I had with B while getting him dressed...
"Mom, what does this say?" pointing to his shirt.
"Gap."
Looks at me quizzically, "How do you play 'Gap'?"

Because surely I wouldn't be dressing him in something non-sports! What a crack up. That alone explains who my Dallin B is.

So what else? Spent a lovely night at the ball park, just in time to see Manny hit his first homerun as a Dodger. There was electricity in the stadium. And then to see all three of my boys chanting, "Manny, Manny..." It was quite a hoot.

Did I mention Chels and Pistol were making out on the way to the game? And that she was taking pics of it?! Did I also mention I miss Chels? She left on Friday after being my p.i.c for the summer... sad.
Before Chels ditched me we had an escape to San Diego. A lot of fun. One of the highlights was renting bikes, which I wish I knew the correct term because they are not really bikes. They are like huge cars with no motor. Hence, the need to pedal. And sometimes get out and push when necessary. Because they are freakin heavy. And when you have no momentum and a hill someone is going to be out pushing. And the other one is going to be the manual blinker. Gotta love it. And look how cute the boys look in their helmets...

And let's be honest, 5 minutes after we left the rental place the helmets were ditched. Cuz that's how kids roll.
Last thing that is definitely blog worthy... my most recent purchase called the waterpik. And why aren't orthodontists telling everyone and their mom about this? I mean for real, this is almost as good as going to the dentist for a cleaning. Put a little mouthwash in the mix and you are feeling good. It's as easy as going to Target and picking one up for yourself. And braces or no braces, it's a $40 well spent.
