Survivor Dad style...HAHA

Six married men will be dropped on an island with one car and 3 kids
each for six weeks.

Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance classes.

There is no fast food.
This is kinda long but SUPER funny!! I would kill to see this!!

The rules are...
Each man must take care of his 3 kids; keep his assigned house clean,
correct all homework, complete science projects, cook, do laundry, and
pay a list of "pretend" bills with not enough money.

In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each
week.

Each man must remember the birthdays of all their friends and relatives,
and send cards out on time.

Each man must also take each child to a doctor's appointment, a dentist
appointment and a haircut appointment. He must make one unscheduled and
inconvenient visit per child to the Urgent Care (weekend, even ing, on a
holiday or right when they're about to leave for vacation). He must also
make
cookies or cupcakes for a social function.

Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house,
planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times.

The men will only have access to television when the kids are asleep and
all chores are done.

There is only one TV between them, and a remote with dead batteries.

Each father will be required to know all of the words to every stupid
song that comes on TV and the name of each and every character on
cartoons.

The men must shave their legs, wear makeup daily, which they will apply
to themselves either while driving or making three lunches.

Each man will have to make an Indian hut model with six toothpicks, a
tortilla and one marker; and get a 4 year old to eat a serving of peas.

Each man must adorn himself with jewelry, wear uncomfort able yet stylish
shoes, keep their nails polished and eyebrows groomed. The men must try
to get through each day without snot, spit-up or barf on their clothing.

During one of the six weeks, the men will have to endure severe
abdominal cramps, back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood swings
but never once complain or slow down from other duties. They must try
to explain what a tampon is for when the 6-yr old boy finds it in the
purse.

They must attend weekly school meetings, church, and find time at least
once to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting.

He will need to read a book and then pray with the children each night
without falling asleep, and then feed them, dress them, brush their
teeth and comb their hair each morning by 7:00. They must leave the home
with no food on their face or clothes.

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each father will
be required to know all of the following information: each child's
birthday, height, weight, shoe size, clothes size and doctor's name.
Also the child's weight at birth, length, time of birth, and length of
labor, each child's favorite color, middle name, favorite snack,
favorite song, favorite drink, favorite toy, biggest fear and what they
want to be when they grow up.

They must clean up after their sick children at 2:00 a.m. and then spend
the remainder of the day tending to that child and waiting on them hand
and foot until they are better.

They must have a loving, age appropriate reply to, "You're not the boss
of me."

The kids vote them off the island based on performance.
The last man wins only if...he still has enough energy to be intimate
with his spouse at a moment's notice.

If the last man does win, he can play the game over and over and over
again for the next 18-25 years...eventually earning the right to be
called Mother!

Video Monitor

Alright so after Addie's 4th taking off the pants and diaper and pooping in her crib, covering pretty much EVERYTHING with poo, crib, bedding, her baby, herself, and the little bird thing that shines on the ceiling.... I had enough and I told Brian I am not going to clean this up again. I went and bought a Baby's Quiet Sounds™ Day and Night Handheld Color Video Monitor, they are kinda pricey but I figured we would get good use out of it and really I don't feel one bit bad about it. One of Brian's cousins have one and it's awesome, cause you can see everything day or night.

I WENT SKY DIVING!!!!

Last weekend we went to San Diego and the opportunity of a lifetime came up for me to go sky diving with my mother- in- law Gloria and Bro-in-law Kevin and I took it! I have always wanted to go but once I had Addie I didn't think I would ever go. Boy was I wrong! We jumped at 13,000 feet.....free fell for 8,000 feet ( lasted about 1 min.) We pulled the shoot at 5,000 feet, and after the shoot was up it was the most amazing sight I have ever seen. The view that we had was gorgeous, and it is SILENT!! The jump from start to finish was about 4-5 min. It was a wonderful experience and I am so glad that I did it. Just a heads up these are the WORSE pictures EVER. The most UNFLATTERING just flat out horrible, lets just say the harness did me NO GOOD for my already problem areas...but no matter what you will get a HUGE laugh. Also notice that the guy that I jumped with had a helmet but they don't give you one...just they have them on...nice huh?? Enjoy! A few of the pics at the end of the slide show are of Addie.

Random pics of Addie

I know I haven't been so good lately about putting up pictures of Addie Kay. I finally sat down to resize them and here are a few of my favorites. Oh and I am so proud but today Addie identified blue,red, and yellow..we have been workin on colors for a while now.

Addie fell asleep on our living room rug the other day and she just looked too cute!


Like most kids do Addie loves playing in boxes and not a big shocker she climbed right in this one, and made herself comfortable.


After way to long of a wait we FINALLY got a new sofa, the 15 year old pink and blue flowered sofa my parents so kindly donated to us after we got married just wasn't working so much...we love our new sofa and so does Addie..



Today Addie got a new pair of shades and she was super proud to show them off...



I just thought this was too cute and totally showed off her personality..she is a hoot!

Silly Daddy


Addie put a head-band over Brian's eyes and he was walking around out living room pretending to run into the walls and doors and she thought it was so funny..

come on, come on!!

Alright...so it's 10:30p.m. I really need to go to bed but I really want to know what the scoop is and if my man OBAMA made it... i will be one sad woman if I find out in the morning that Hilary won....I think he can take it, he is so inspiring. We were watching him give a little speech in IL and he just makes me smile. He makes me want to care again about what is going on with our country. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed and prob not sleeping too much, sad but true...Happy Super Tuesday!!

Thank God!

The Superbowl is over and the Patriots are going home with a 18-1 record. Unfortunately I missed the last minute and a half of the game(which I heard was amazing) but overall I cannot explain how glad I am that the Patriots and Bill Belicheat were kept from having a "perfect season". (No thanks to the NFL comissioner) It never ceases to amaze me that Belichick was caught this very season cheating, and somehow by the end of the AFC championship, people were calling him a genius, have they all forgotten already?? Granted, I'm from San Diego, so by default I do not like Eli Manning after he was initially drafted to San Diego, and the things he said, but I'm willing to overlook that for one day if it means taking away a SuperBowl ring from the Patriots.
