Random.......

This week we are doing some Halloween shopping! I know I'm not the mom who can make cool costumes, but hey I like the store ones just fine! ha ha Anthony wants to be batman and Alex wants to be Flash (a super hero) Alexis wants to be Supergirl instead of a princess which is kinda sad to me. ha ha Oh well next year I'll brainwash both of my girls to be princesses or something else girly- just kidding- kinda. Alexis wants blue eyeshadow the way Supergirl has it and she will be in a cute skirt so that will be kinda girly. Last night the girls took a bath together and had a blast and then a few minutes into it Alexis said "wow mom Alyssa is a girl like me!" So observant...... Justin took both of the boys out to run some errands and we took a long bath closing the door to "keep the boys out" as Lexie put it. Yes, even I got in which made it really crowed! Last night we had cheesy tortillas, salad, and corn for dinner which I know is odd, but I let Alex and Lexie each pick a veggie. Anthony was grading the cheese and he cut his thumb and it left two markings that look just like the cheese grader! I wanted to pass out or run away, but I managed to keep it together for Anthony's sake. He was fine, but no longer wanted to grade the cheese which I can't blame him. Next time I'll suggest he do it again though. So all this talk about kids- the thing is we don't date as we are strapped at home and we have our Grey's, but last night we were talking about finding a young women in the ward that we can trust for a couple of hours to help us from time to time. We love that we cuddle up every night to a show so it's not a big deal it's just we'd like to start dressing up for one another again from time to time. Also, I do think it will be good for the kids. Now hopefully we can find someone. Oh one last exciting note! Alyssa now poops solid! ha ha I know that's sick to share, but it sure is a big deal to me! ha ha Oh, the joys of motherhood! This weekend is General Conference so I'm looking forward to that as I plan on going to the church with a couple of friends on Saturday during one session- without Alyssa cause Justin is off this whole weekend! I'm studying the book of John in the bible (duh) so that's what's going on in my adult life. I hear all this talk about women losing themselves in motherhood and I admit I do which I look at as the phase of life I'm in it's just I am trying to do something for myself too. Right now I'm working out and reading the bible consistently and am enjoying more "me" time- even if I only get a few minutes a day to do both! lol
