So things around here have been pretty dang crazy!!! This month has flown by so fast. It was a very stressful first couple weeks when Corey was home only 2 days out of the first 18 of this month. I was kinda going crazy to be honest! During those first 18 crazy days, I had some fun with friends and my dear mother watched the boys so I could go out for a girls night!! My nephew celebrated his birthday, my new sister-in-law went through the temple and I was able to go. Then I decided that yes I am completely insane for letting my husband convince me we needed a dog. I can't blame him completely, I blame the dog mostly! He was just so dang cute at the pound and needed a home. So my heart was melted and we took him home. He has been a great dog! We were able to kennel train him, potty train him (although I might be taking that back tonight he has already had 2 accidents in the house for some weird reason and I'm gonna strangle him!) and he is very good at learning new tricks. All in all he is a great, great dog. It's just that the boys don't really get puppy play. You know the kind where they jump on people and wrestle and bite! I mean he is a puppy and that is to be expected, but the boys scream and throw their arms every which way and he thinks that they want more, like a really big fun squeaky toy. It was driving me completely bonkers!!! I decided I didn't need to have a puppy after all and that the boys didn't really care about him enough for me to tough it out and keep him. So I put him up on craigslist but apparently no one wants a big dog. So alas we still have our wonderful Max. So now Corey has been home for the last 5 days and life has been so great!! I love having him home! His first day back he built a "fort" for the boys. It's really a play house for out side, complete with a ladder leading up to the roof where they can shoot all the monsters in the back yard. When I was telling my Grandpa about it he informed me that it's not a play house when it's for boys it's a fort, so Corey built a fort! They love it! Then my brother got married to his beautiful fiance this past weekend. It was wonderful! Oh and the other few days Corey has been home we have been working at his parents house they just bought out in Timbuktu, not sure how you spell that, but it's way out in Queen Creek. My mother refers to it as Gods Green earth where the cows poop. I like to refer to it as that also. It's so stink'n far!! We have spent a lot of money on gas going to and from that house! Corey did some repairs while the boys played in the dirt lot/back yard and I have been painting the inside of the house. That is a really tough job for a girl who's almost 8 months pregnant. The first night I swore I was having contractions, but the second day was better. My back has been killing me since I started and I think I might have to call it quits for a while. I'm just a weirdo about painting and I get a little obsessed so it's hard to tell myself to stop. But luckily it's Thanksgiving in a couple days and I have a good excuse to not do anymore work for awhile. Tomorrow I plan on going to the temple with my lovely husband and cleaning the car for our trip to Eagar to celebrate with lots of family. Unfortunately I will be dropping Corey off at the airport right before I head up to his parents house for Thanksgiving. Oh the life of a pilots wife!!!
For the sake of having a picture with my post here is one of the boys playing with cars at Grammy's house tonight.
Here's a picture of Bryant and Mommy doing what he does best!
