Bad Blogger!

I admit, I suck as a blogger.  I'm not sure if it's because I just have nothing cool to say or if I'm just so tired by the time I get home that I just don't care.  I do wish that I had my camera with me at the store yesterday.  If I did, you would all be enjoying the scene I had when the employee after ringing me up took a step backwards, modeling a pair of BRIGHT blue granny underwear on top of her plaid shorts and said 'do you guys like the new color?'  It was awesome.  No one even noticed until she said something.  Guess it goes to show how little we pay attention to the people around us sometimes.  

IT Help

I need some help from all you experienced bloggers.  I need to put something on the Hagermann's blog where people can comment if they want me to contact them about working there.  But I want it to always be at the top, not just a regular post that will move on as the next post comes.  Can I do that?  If anyone knows how I can do this, please let me know.  And of course if you know anyone that needs a job, that would be helpful too.  

Anyone Else Had This Problem?

How can I convince Jackson that I'm not walking around with a couple of balls stashed in my shirt?  He always tries to find the balls at the most inopportune time.  

Open Invitation

Sunday is Riley's birthday.  When I asked him what he wanted he said to go bowling... anyone interested? We'd be going on Saturday night.   I've found that with bowling, the more the merrier.

is it wrong that I didn't want to use the red eye fix on my computer because I think this looks vampirish?

First Day

Today was Parker's first day of school.  Can I just say that 1/2 day Kindergarten is a waste.  I feel like I drop him off and have to turn right around to pick him up again.  Does anyone else feel this way?  Do I seem like I'm trying to ditch my kid?  I'm not really, it's just a pain.  But regardless of it being short, or probably because it was short, Parker LOVED it.  When I picked  him up he asked when he gets to go back to his school again.  When I told him tomorrow, he got really excited and asked if he could even go on saturday.  Oh well, he'll grow out of liking school all too soon I'm sure.  

Spoiled

I can see now that I've been spoiled for the past few weeks.  We've had Rob's niece Mesa living with us as a nanny.  My life has almost no stress anymore, just the bakery stuff now.  I don't have to put all the kids in the car to drop Riley off at school, (he started Monday) I don't even have to take the kids to the store if I don't want to.  I've even had a little reprieve from changing 98% of the diapers.  Mesa has also been AWESOME at keeping the house clean.  She went camping with her family this past weekend and by Saturday afternoon I was standing in my kitchen thinking 'Where did all these dishes come from?'  She has been an absolute life saver and will definitely be missed.  Her last day here is on Thursday and Jack is going to cry when she goes.  When ever she leaves to go to the store or something he just stands there with his arms out beckoning to the recently closed door saying 'Sissy?' (I know it doesn't sound anything like Mesa, but regardless, that is her name.)  He gets very worried about her absence.  I'm going to get very worried about my dishes, but even more importantly, she is awesome with the kids.  So Mesa, you are welcome anytime.  

Parker says...

I just realized that it's been a really long time since I've blogged and I don't know what I've missed.  So, I will fill you in on the best part of my day.  Riley and Parker were playing with Ian and I received this text from Davy...  

Parker:  "Simon says, Riley, pretend not to be a dummy."
