Is there a mouse in your house?????

We don't have a mouse in our house, BUT we have one in our CAR!!! EWWW! Gross! I usually never drive Cory's car because well it's beat to death. I officially awarded his car this morning as the Ghetto-est car I've ever seen. It's been stolen, crashed in a high speed chase--and it looks it--really and now it is home to our little friends the mice. I wanted to go to a Zumba class and my car was out of gas, so I took Cory's. I was happily driving along when I decided to put my wallet in the glove compartment. I shrieked as I opened it because this is what I found.........A mice lair in the glove compartment. I started freaking out as any normal person would who realizes that they are sharing their car with a mouse that could dart out at any second and cause a horrendous accident. I think it might be worse than having a bee in the car. I start looking around for other evidences of mice and there is mice poop all over the front of the car. I really start shrieking because I realize I'm sitting in it! EWWW. I debated getting out of the car and having Cory come pick me up, but alas I was courageous and strong! I defeated my fear. I even went to the zumba class, which was awesome. Cory is at this moment disinfecting the car and getting it vacummed out. We haven't seen the mice, but what do we do put a trap in the car. Oh, gross. I'm so glad that its not my car.

The blessing in all this is that Cory will have a squeaky(haha) clean car. It's also good that I took the car during the day because Cory usually only drives it around in the dark. So we found our little furry friend earlier. Now onto the rest of our week.......

Isn't he adorable? Well He had a miserable week. Incredibly. Last night was glorious because it was the first night he slept all night all week. I feel refreshed. We thought he was teething, which he was. He got a new molar this week, but after a trip to the Doctor we found out he also had hand, mouth and foot disease and thrush. No wonder all he did was cry. Poor little guy!!!

A few of the things I've learned this week to make life suck less. First--be grateful--in everything there is something to be grateful for. Second--be patient-try not to do everything at once and just give things time. Second and 1/2 Choose-yep choose a good attitude and happy thoughts. Third-laugh like it's going to go out of style. Life is hilarious. It is....

Eww Gross. I have heard they can chew through your wires and create lots of havic once they get in your car (things you hear on a farm). Hey, I just drove that car!!! Maybe if Cory had an ice scrapper in there it would have scared the mouse away!!!

Oh my gosh the mouse thing is disgusting!
I freaked out when a mouse came running out in our living room from behind the t.v a few months ago. Paul was so determined to catch it, though that he went out and bought a sticky trap and caught it that night. (Those sticky traps work!)
Poor little Isaak. What a rough week for him and for mommy. Hope this week is much better for you guys. I love your out look and attitude about it all.

Alas I speak

First of all it was easy to get that Widget of the Baby on, but I have no idea how to get if off. It's not that I don't want to remove it, I just don't know how. I'm not the smartest blogger on the block. I bet there is some button that says remove widget somewhere. So the big day finally arrived-if you want to know as little as possible I suggest that you read no further, but just scroll down and enjoy the pictures. I slept in on Thursday(last week)-it was glorious. I straightened my hair, shaved my legs and just slowly got ready for work. I then decided that it was essential that I pick up baby wipes from Costco. My body must have known that I would be needing them soon. I'm walking around Costco and all of the sudden I pee my pants. I was looking all around for a bathroom, but I couldn't see one anywhere. I thought well it was just a little leak and I know there is a bathroom at target and they are usually pretty clean. So I head over to target and I continue...

From me to him

Dear Isaak, Happy Birthday my little guy! It feels like just yesterday that you were literally pulled out to come into this world. Yes literally with forceps around your little head because you accidentally faced the wrong direction or maybe you faced the direction you wanted to. You didn’t seem like you were quite ready to come out because you were just wailing--almost like you were saying, “You know--I was perfectly comfortable in there.” I’ve learned this year that you surely know what you want and you will not stop until you get it. For example when we tried to spend the weekend away from home and you didn't like sleeping in your playpen! You woke up every 1/2 hour to let us know you weren't comfortable. You finally fell asleep around 3am when we put you on the bouncer. Cory slept with his arm around you on the floor so you didn't roll off. You weren’t going to come easy, eh?? I remember pushing and pushing and pushing and thinking this isn’t going how I thought that i...

Whaaaaat??????

I'm happily brushing my teeth in the bathroom. I'm looking around wondering what else I could be doing while I'm brushing my teeth and I started to think to myself, hmmmm , I wonder what's in toothpaste? I picked up the tube with my free hand and continued brushing. As I was reading the back I noticed a WaRnINg : Do not use for more than four weeks at a time. What? Do not use for more than four weeks? I anticipated reading if you swallow more than what you are brushing your teeth with call poison control. I try to start adding up how long I've been using this toothpaste. Cory didn't like it, so I've been using it solo and it has surely been more than four weeks. Now I don't know what to do with it--do I take a break and come back to it or do I just keep using it? I mean it's been about three months and I still have quite a bit left and nothing seems out of the ordinary yet...But seriously I think that the warning on the toothpaste should at least be...
