Good Day!

These are obviously some pictures from the zoo. The first one was the coolest setup! I have it in color, too. It is my favorite picture of Burger and Jake! Lovely scenery! The other is starfish, in case you couldn't tell! I have a couple other pictures, too, that I might add later. My computer is still doing weird things and going very slowly. I'm not sure the guy at Computer Reboot actually fixed it. We grilled out last night and it was fabulous! I call Burger my GrillMaster 3000. He can grill anything and grill it with style! Jacob is eating leftovers as we speak! I don't have anything in my fridge to drink except Red Bull and Monter. So I have been drinking Red Bull all day! Also water, so don't freak out people! The Monster is Burger's... When Jake is done eating I think we are going to the mall in Waterloo. I was going to get my Burger a surprise from the bookstore. And look at shoes... Hope everyone is having a good time today! I'm all hopped up on Red Bull, so you know I am! Much love!

I'm Back!

Alright, people... This has been a crazy crazy time the past week or so. Our computer had a virus that Burger couldn't get rid of so we had to take the computer in to Computer Reboot to be fixed. But, before we could get there, our entire neighborhood flooded. When the flood came, we were so nervous! It was a 1/2 block away from our house in the front and the back! I know a lot of people around here were flooded, and we were so lucky that it didn't get to us! Our basement didn't even get wet! We are gracious for that kind of luck... So after the flood died down a bit we took our computer in and finally got it back today! That's a long story short. The main idea, you could say. I should be adding some new photos sometime soon. I am working on Jacob's 2nd birthday pics, but you will not see those until his birthday party, currently being planned for Sunday, August 3rd, 2008. Have a good day everyone, and hopefully I won't ever leave for that long again!

Busy Weekend!

Alright, I didn't disappear! We have been crazy busy! Burger finally got home on Thursday night at about 9:30. On Friday night we grilled out with Kerry. On Saturday we went to the zoo in Des Moines, and on Sunday we hung out and visited family. We also ruined our flooring, but that a whole different story! The zoo was really fun! Jacob didn't quite get it, but he liked to look at the animals. When my mom asked him about it, he was totally oblivious. Like what the heck is this lady talking about... a zoo? What's that? So, I don't think it made that much of an impact on him, because usually he has a really good memory! Anyhow, we are getting ready to go to work right now, but I might post our zoo pictures later! Have a good day everyone!

Boring Days

Story of my life. Went to work, got Subway for lunch, Kerry came and ate lunch with us, Jake didn't take a nap until 3:30 this afternoon, and Burger is working late. It is ten after seven and he's not home yet. I miss him. Jacob and I are bored. I thought about going to the store, but I don't have anything to buy. Pretty soon it will be time for Jacob to go to bed, then I will be all by myself until Burger gets home. They are tying in a fire alarm at work, or something like that. The guy didn't get there until 5pm and Burger wasn't sure how long it would take. I'm tired of waiting. Jacob has the worst cold/allergies ever. I have been giving him Claritin, and that seems to make him feel better until the evenings. But I can only give it to him once a day because it is a 24 hour formula. So he is kind of miserable right now. He is eating fine and drinking fine, and I really think he has allergies. But I'm just the mom, I don't know what I'm talking about. Good night everyone. Wishing you all the best.

Tuesday

Today I went to work. Nothing exciting. Came home, did laundry, Jake took a nap, I chatted on the phone with Megan. Jake and I ate some pretzels and they made me sick to my stomach so I laid down for a bit. Burger came home. We took tubs then Burger washed the dishes. My love. How lucky am I to have a husband that will come home from work and wash the dishes? We are getting ready to go to my grandma's house to have dinner with my family. Hope everyone has a nice night! Will be back tomorrow to talk more boring details of my life!

Double Work Day!

Today was a double work day for me! The girl who usually works the night shift couldn't make it in tonight, so I was called in as backup. So I did a double, split shift today. Not too bad, but I definitely wouldn't want to do it everyday. I like to have my afternoon and evenings at home! But, can't complain about my job. It's the best, most fun job ever! And I get paid to do it! So that's that story. Jacob stayed home with Burger this evening and they had some nice bonding time! My house is a disaster, but when isn't it? I'll work on that tomorrow! Hope everyone has a nice night! Also, these are pictures of Jacob and his freeze pop things! He loves these!

Sunday Funday!

We didn't relax a whole lot today, but we did have fun! We went to kids zone at My Waterloo Days with cousins and friends. Rode the train again, and ate funnel cake! Yum! Then we went to Target and bought a new DVD player because ours finally cashed in totally. Then Jacob had a nice nap while Burger and I hosed down our new outside toys that Grandma Hild got us. When Jacob woke up we ate supper then played in the sprinkler. Jacob wasn't very impressed with it, but he didn't hate it! After that we walked to the park and played with Grandpa Hild. Then we all had a tub and now Jacob is in bed. He isn't actually in his bed sleeping yet, but he's thinking about it more seriously. Burger and I are getting ready to watch a movie. We had a fun day, and tomorrow we all get to go back to work! Hope everyone else enjoyed their day. These are some pics of Jacob in his swimming suit!
