happy valentine’s day!

February 14, 2008

sean has had a very creative week.
he came home from school on tuesday…
walked straight to the markers and worked on this valentine for mom & dad
for 45 minutes.
very special.
yesterday he made homemade valentines for his whole class.
he was totally into it…making them specifically for each person.
(he had lego ones i bought him but sadly annie ruined them all)

apparently i signed up for treats in talby’s class
AND sean’s class.
our kitchen looked like a cupcake factory yesterday.

talby’s sweet valentine.

and how totally appropriate for valentine’s day…..

this has to come today?
so tacky.
it’s a debate i have with myself every year….
throw it away or let it stay?
make a big deal or pretend to not care at all?
have a pity party over my own body that has birthed 5 babies or get over it?

ugh.

i threw it away.
they are so beautiful.
but they don’t make cupcakes for school parties…

Sarah Keith - Great Post! Yes…they don’t make cupcakes!!!!!!!!

melissa @ the inspired room - Oh my, Meg! I’d throw it away too. And my husband would ask me to throw it away (good husband!) if he knew it was coming. He makes me throw away my Victoria Secret catalogs too. Good good man. And really would you want that around for your son to see? I think not. Good for you.
Your kids are always adorable. I love seeing their cute creations and faces.
Happy day,
Melissa

Mom - Dad says you can send the magazine to him!
Cute pics of Sean – and the cupcakes look yummy!

Linda - Yay!!! Good for you…I bet they can’t decorate like you, and they’d probably make lousy mums!!
You rock!
Linda

traci - homeade valentines are just the best. what a sweetie. the cupcakes look awesome. and the magazine, will he miss it? too funny!

Jennifer P. - Those little valentines are so cute! Tell little ones GREAT JOB! The cupcakes look so pretty. The women do not. You’ve got to go to iwanexstudio.com and check out the insane amount of photoshopping they do. I guarantee those women look nothing like that in real life. And I’d throw ’em away too :). Happy Valentines Day!

michelle - LOL! I am with you on the mag. thing! Darling valentines and cupcakes, your blog is constantly making me hungry. Thanks for the url for the tea images. I’ll let you know how ours turns out.
Happy Valentines Day!

Brenis - Thank you for all the wonderful “color shots” this week! You are definitely a SUPERMOM! All those cupcakes !! And i just want to say kudos to you meg, you put into words what every woman thinks and the way our brains work, when something like the SI shows up at the house!! And I LOVE how you worded the last two sentences! Amen sista!!
And YOU are beautiful too! 🙂
Have a blessed week!

traci - sean reminds me of my 2 kids….they make valentines on their own and make them special for each friend!! I WISH I had taught them that but they came up with it alone.
Cupcakes look soooooo festive
As for the magazine I would have thrown it out too…Ok, this might be going too deep but I think it isnt JUST about your husband but how those kinds of magazines plant the wrong message in young boys minds AND young ladies that you have growing up in your home….ok, thats my little soapbox for the day..lol
LOVE YOUR BLOG

snow day

February 7, 2008

what to do on a snow day?
1. stay in bed as long as your five children will allow without fist fighting.
2. make a whole pot of coffee.

3. wake up slowly by reading email and checking blogs.
4. let kids watch their 3rd hour of tv before 10:00 AM.
5. decide to go take a bath (because shower is broken)
6. realize how dirty bathtub is (very dirty) and decide to clean it.

7. clean out the bath toys (throw away half)….
cover tub and walls with soft scrub with bleach.
8. take off clothes because of the bleach
and scrub the tub in my bra and underwear.
seriously.
9. turn on the water to clean off soft scrub.
10. discover that the drain is clogged.
craig had fixed it the night before but now it was worse than it had been.
11. spend 25 mintues trying to fix it myself??
because i am so skilled in plumbing….
still in my bra and underwear.
12. finally get it to go a tiny bit….
enough to have a big cupful go down without stopping.
13. clean off the walls and tub one cup full at a time.

14. run my bath and discover my daughter has used all my bubble bath.
15. settle for other soap and take a bath…
with only four interruptions…there is no lock.
16. get more coffee (and a snack).

17. take a long time getting dressed & drying hair…
to avoid being needed by children.
18. paint toenails.

19. remember the valentines i bought 2 weeks ago.
20. provide an hour of tv free entertainment for 4 of my children.

22. continue day with same old stuff…washing loads laundry in my ~~freezer~~ laundry room…feed the kids lunch…snacks…more snacks…clean up valentines…make dinner…sweep up container of glitter off kitchen floor….bring the rabbit inside…take the rabbit back out…email…send kids off to wednesday night church.
23. relax?
yeah right.

note: i am not complaining about this crazy life.
i just thought it was an extra crazy day in my usually crazy life.

today the plumber had to come and work on the drain.
he tried four different things and then said “oh…that’s not good.”
water pouring all over the dining room floor.
ugh.
it turns out that our plumbing that was put in 100 years ago is getting old.
imagine that.
he called his boss.
there was one thing left to try other than replace plumbing…
(something with a shop vac and a plunger?)
and it worked!

now i have to clean the tub again.

*****************************************************************
annie asked during the memory game this morning….
“can the plumber play memory with us mom?”

Angel - Too cute! I am excited to look more at your site- absolutely love the pictures! Thanks for stopping by my blog… I love new visitors!
Angelena
p.s. My 2 yr old son was sitting here looking at this post with me and saw the picture of the the painted toenails. He squealed, “Oh mommy! Look at those markered toes!” 🙂

Andrea - How funny….. I was just having lunch with a friend and we were talking about how when I was in college and my aunt was caring for her two young granddaughters….anyway, one day she was a bit frustrated and said, in a grumbly voice (and my aunt never uses a grumbly voice) someday I would just like to pee by myself! I thought geeez, what is her problem. Now that I have two children and a dog like her, I understand!!!!!!!!!

Candy - Wow…LOVE your blog..your house is pretty!!
Have a blessed day 🙂
Candy from Canada

Jennifer P. - So much to relate to! I am notorious for bleaching everything, and what better outfit to deal with all that bleaching power than your bra and underwear, right :)?!
Glad to know my plumbing will most likely need replace in another 80 years. I’ll start saving now.
Rabbit, what rabbit?!

Erica - Good to hear from you. Love reading your blog! I can’t believe how big Lauren is. And Annie. She seems really tall to me. I’m glad you guys are doing so good. I hear Jenny is coming or maybe she is already headed there. Good for you guys. Have fun. I want to see lots of pictures! 🙂

jeanetta - i couldnt find an email on here anywhere so i just thought i would leave it in a comment for you.
the black apron has sold already but i have all the supplies to make another. its $35 and if you want one i can put it up on esty for you.

Anna - Hi – Ran across your blog a few weeks ago – to cute.
Oh your whole bathroom episode – The only way I clean our bathtub and shower is in my underware – is this not normal? I once asked to have a cleaning lady come to only clean our bathrooms, and my hubby asked if I really wanted to see a very large older women in her undies cleaing our tub- this was his way of sayin NO!
Nice shade of pink on the toes – very valentineish!

jeanetta - that was the best post!! loved it!
been there with the bathroom too.

em loria - Being a mom is a great job isn’t it? I love to scrub tubs in my undey-pants. I am glad I am not the only one that lets my children watch a little too much TV sometimes… thank you!

diane - hey, thanks for the comment, i was just reading you blog, clicked back to check my email and saw your comment, thanks.
And I like many of your readers, clean our sad, sad, sad little bathroom the same way.

Elena Manwaring - Oh goodness! That post cracked me up. It sounded much like my own day yesteday. Only mine involved a toilet. Hope you get more relaxation in today.

Brenis - Oh Meg, too funny! Sounds like you took a day out of my life. (I too clean the shower in my undies – no bleach splotches that way :D) So much for going straight to a relaxing bath, huh? And yes, the other day in the middle of all the craziness, i chose to stay holed up in my bathroom after my shower and painted my toenails, and plucked my brows – anything to stall going back to “reality” that day! LOL It’s a wonderful way of coping, isn’t it? 😛
Definitely loving those boots! 😀
Praise God the plumber figured out another option besides replacing all the plumbing!!! Holy cow that would be a horrendous cost and imagine the mess of ripping up walls!!!! :

traci - what a day!! don’t they make you smile. my days are kind of quiet now – even when the do have a snow day – and i miss the little kid stuff. and valentines – i really miss doing that with them. i can relate with the old house and plumbing issues – ick, i hope that does the trick for a long time. thanks for the peek into your day. love it!

Jenny Pocknall - I love it! Mums are the same the world over. (Except we don’t have the snow!)
It sound like a day I would have.

Shannon - Glad to see Scott likes the Life is Good shirt. I guess anything basketball would be fine for him — would make Hunter proud.

carissa - noggin… sprout… disney?
i tend to have a mixed viewing preference over here!
i am just glad noggin is now on past 5pm now(i know mother of the year)!
we had a snow day yesterday… i was in my jammies LATE! hee hee
you bring a bowl of smiles every day! thanks!

cynthia - i’m a bra and underwear shower cleaning kinda girl too! glad to know there is another…
and that first picture made me want some boots!

eef - would love to have some snow here it is only gray at the moment 🙂 Love your red boots 😀

prairie daze - that’s how we used to clean in college.
i’ll have to try it again.
: )

Pattie - Bathtub interruptions. Oh,the days. Valentine’s cards are a thing of the past too. I am really missing little kids thanks to you.
Here in Texas snow days are few and far between but we sure do love them. Of course our whole area shuts down with just the threat of ice or a half inch of snow. The world ends and the grocery shelves are empty.
Wanted to let you know that I made the chicken enchiladas and cream puff dessert this week. Both were a huge hit in my house. No leftovers at all! I added another can of green chilies (we are Texans, of course) Absolutely Yummy!

Shelly - that ended with a nice double negative…
but I think you will be able to understand =)
LOL

Shelly - I really do love reading about your days…
Some things are so similiar to my days – – –
I too, clean the tub in my bra and underwear… just seems easier, you don’t have to worry about your jammie pants getting any bleach-stuff on them.
My eight year old still has valentines that she is working on… she wanted to be more crafty and decided to make her own vs. store bought this year… so far, so good. She is starting to take pride in putting things together on her own, it is great to see her have fun with things like that.
Some days I dread what the teenage years will be like…
I have three daughters, the oldest is eight, the middle one will be two on Saturday, and her baby sister is not too far behind, she will be one on Sunday. So… to think of all the hormones that will be bouncing off the walls when I have a 17, 11 & 10 year old… fun, fun, fun!!
It’s a crazy life… but we have fun, and I couldn’t imagine not having this much craziness =)

Tammy Fischer - Okay. My bags are packed and I’m coming to live at your house (you don’t mind if I bring my two boys along do you?). I love a girl who can find time to paint her toenails while gracefully free falling into the looney bin…fantastic shade of pink by the way! p.s. – I clean the shower naked, you’re one step higher up on the civilization chain than I am.

chris - Snow day sounds good !, but since I run a daycare my two little ladies would make me crazy by now, I really love your desk area how nice, love the door/desk ,off to walk in 2 ft deep snow to pick up 6 kids from school while the other two (yep that’s 8 seems normal to me)stay in with my snowed in hubby. oh Canada!
Plus for today some kind “neighbour stranger” snow plowed my sidewalk, and the sun is shining for the first time in months. Ahhh sun!
Happy birthday to Lauren , love that name , we were one idea away from naming our first born Lauren , sometimes I still wish we had, its so pretty , as is your Lauren, we went with Mason for our big girl who will be 13 in 3 and a half years, yikes.We are already experiencing some hormones.

danelle - Tell her the cleaning lady would play memory with her!

thirteen

February 5, 2008

holy cow.
how did this happen?
how do i have a teenager?
it seems like i was just meeting her.
just looking at that dark hair and dark brown eyes.
seeing how totally adorable she looked in hot pink.
figuring out what to do with a baby.

and one more..

my grandma holding lauren who was not even 1 day old.
ahhhh…..that’s the good stuff.
i wish i could hold her like that again.

but that would be difficult….
since we are the same size.

time for cake.
shirts are optional.

why are her arms waving?
i don’t know…
she’s 13.

this was a funny one.
i guess she was just far enough out of the candle light to disappear.

and think how funny that iPod will look some day.

thirteen.
big time stuff.
she has the whole world in front of her.
that is exciting.

amy d - Happy Birthday Lauren!!! Woof Woof 🙂 Love ya, Molly

Sara - Meg Meg Meg,
I so TOTALLY remember when you were pregnant with her. I was so amazed that someone I knew was going to be a Mom. You have really done so much and look how amazing ALL your kids are! And you have such a super sweet sister. hee hee. My husband calls me crazy for always checking in with your life, but I do SO enjoy it. Happy Birthday Lauren!

traci - when I was a young, unmarried, childless lady I heard people say all the time how fast their kids grew up and thought..”yeah, whatever, blah, blah”. Now that I have kids I SERIOUSLY HAVE NO IDEA where time goes!!!!! My stepson who was 8 when I married his dad 11 yrs ago is moving out on his own TODAY at 19. Never thought it would happen….jeeeeesh, its just amaing.
Your daughter is indeed just gorgeous. I had to giggle outloud at shirts are optional and making a big deal about her smile..lol
Oh yes and the idea we might think your kids are smoking..lol

amy - Happy Birthday, Lauren!

carissa - oh my gosh… no… you do not seem like you could be mom to a teenager! fun & I am sure challenging too.
she IS so pretty… and has the world at her feet! BIG 13! wow! happy birthday!

Becca - This post was so fun for me today! Today
(2/6)is my 36th Birthday. I cant even rememer what was going on in my world at 13….but it was fun to peek into her world on her special day! Thanks for sharing!

Mom - Hope Lauren had a great 13th birthday! What fun things did she get?
Snow, Snow, Go Away – It’s just way too Gray!

Jennifer P. - Happy Birthday Lauren! What a pretty girl! I can see the resemblance to you and your husband. Such a fun party too. And a gorgeous cake. And I love the “smoking” picture!!!
Sorry I haven’t been around to comment on your last couple of posts–I’m sure you missed me :). Been one sick puppy. Starting to come out of the worst of it now though.

Blanca - Happy Birthday to Lauren. I know how it feels my daughter turned 14 a week ago and I can’t beleive next school year she will be in high school!
Hope you enjoyed the cake.
Blanca

lorel - oh Lauren! That baby picture for some reason made me feel all emotional. I remember the night before you were born. Kevin and I were not married yet, but he came to Wichita to meet you anyway. We were down in Grandma Ranney’s basement talking and I just started crying, feeling fear and excitement and joy about your upcoming birth. Kevin was not very emotional – he first became an uncle at age 8. 🙂 But I am so glad you are in our family – so smart, so beautiful, so funny, so creative. And now you are a teenager. Wow! Happy Birthday girl!

Jenn - Happy Birthday Lauren! To one of the prettiest girls on our block. We enjoy having you down the street. Just think one more year and you can start driving 🙂 Have a great day off from school today and enjoy that snow and sleeping in.

traci - happy birthday lauren. 13 wow. she will smile alot again real soon. i promise ya!! that looks like a really yummy cake!!

jeanetta - oooo you are scaring me. my oldest will be 10 next year in nov and i am not dealing with that well now! i am really dreading when he gets taller than me.

Crystal - it’s a day late but happy birthday to lauren. still 1 1/2 years to go before we get the joy of having our first teenager in our home.

Ainslie - Happy Birthday to Lauren. What a gorgeous girl…especially when she smiles!!! I bet those twelve years have flown by. Hope your celebrations are special and full of happy memories for you all.

Deann - You Make my Day – and I’m passing on my blog award to you!
I’m not sure if I’ve commented before, but your daughter really brings a bright spot to my day and I sent my (pastor) mother a link to her reciting the bible 🙂

Lisa Wakely - I actually meant you “always” look so cute and put together, but I guess “also” works too 🙂

Lisa Wakely - Love the way you repeat exactly how your little one speaks. Have a dood day. Gotta love it, and the last picture of you is adorable. You also look so cute and put together and to think you are the mother of 5. You go girl!

christine - happy day Lauren Enjoy your cake!

jeanetta - ooo seeing that wallpaper being stripped gave me a shudder. bad memories i had burried really deep. lol. good luck with it

Kate of all Trades - Oh…kind of sad to see that wallpaper go. Why do I like it so much? Anyway, please tell me you took some beautiful pictures of your girls in their Easter best in front of it. It just seems timeless and good for photos.

traci - LOVE, LOVE , LOVE your house!!! Do your neighbors just gush over your house or do they have as awesome as style as you do? I also JUST LOVE going antiquing…soooo much fun! The picture of you is GREAT…your hair is shiny, your smile is beaming, just lovely. You look like the nicest lady ever.

Lee Ann - Would LOVE to walk through that antique store with you. That would make my heart so happy!
Feel for you and the wall paper. Been there. Seriously I don’t think we would purchase another home with it on the walls. Well…maybe if we could hire someone to remove it.

em loria - I love junk stores, espically those that treat children well?? What a fun place, most of them glare at you like “Why are you bringing those rat bags in here with you.” LUCKY GIRL!
I also love the B&W, it’s classic.

Shabby Miss Jenn - OMG I loooove your eye candy here!!!!

Liz - As always, your pictures are just lovely! And who needs the sun with those cheerful, sparkly chandeliers in your kitchen! 🙂
Glad you had fun. Good luck with that wallpaper. The older it is, the more stubborn it is!

Meredith - Hey…I hope you has a dood day too! 🙂
Mere

Di - Had fun at the party…just got a chance to catch up on your blog. Loved the colorful pictures of ordinary stuff – although you always make it look extraordinary!

Andrea - What fun. I always enjoy your pictures. I feel for you……the wallpaper. Sometimes it just doesn’t want to come off….Yuk. Hang in there you are almost done?

the other game

January 26, 2008

this is the other game we play
that lets mommy have some time on the computer
while still playing with annie.
(multi-tasking)

first she closes the swinging door…
(sidenote: this is our Three’s Company door.
you know how jack always ran into someone else
with a big platter of food and it smashed in his face?)
anyway…this is how i know we about to play.

knock knock knock.
“come in!!!” i say to the door.

“Oh hello annie! what are you doing here?” i ask.
to which i always get the quick reply…
“i not annie. i the mama.”
“Oh…hello mama. who is with you today?” i ask.

“”this is my baby….maya. she was in my tummy. want to hold her?”
“Of course i do” i answer.
“she need a bottle. feed her her bottle.”
“OKay…i think she’s tired. she must need a nap in her bed” i tell her.
(this is the part where i get the computer time)

“yeah…she ti-yerd. she need a nap.
i betta be doe-in’ now.
BYE!
half a dood day!”

annie leaves to put maya for a nap.
then 3 minutes later she reappears to do it all again.
i just love a little one’s imagination.
every 3 minutes.

chris - I am glad I found you too, like you I found you before and never found my way back.
Tile is worth doing it is not hard but can , rent or buy a good tile saw and that helps a great deal , that toughest part is after the grout is applied waiting and wiping the excess off , I have not mastered that guite yet , it is a timing thing, I am completely self taught.
Thanks for stopping by
Chris

Ainslie - Ooh, it’s good to hear someone else uses little ‘diversions’ for their kids. I love the way you write Annie’s dialogue as she says it….it’s so adorable. I could listen to ‘little people’s talk’ all day…it’s just so darn cute!!!

jeanetta - super cute. and i love the door. and the 3’s company reference

chris - Love your home is is so wonderful, I have always wanted a swinging door, you are inspiring me.

Brenis - LOL! Meg I swear we were separated at birth! My daughter and I have played the same game for years. She’s mostly outgrown it now – and now the game is “here’s a book, how much can you read all by yourself??” lolol
And just want you to know.. our son (now 11) couldn’t say his “g’s” – and he would say good= dood. Well… we’ve never been able to let that one go! LOL Hubby will call on the phone and say how are you? Answer is always “I’m dood!” 😀 “it’s all dood” 😀 and occasionally I’ll slip and say that to adults outside of our family and they LOOK at me like i’ve grown 3 heads. LOLOL yah. so. there ya go. LOL
Have a great day! Hope ya’ll are feeling much better!!!!
blessings,
bren

mrslimestone - Just stumbled upon your blog. You have some gorgeous photos in here. Your family is very lucky to have someone capturing all these little moments so beautifully.

meg duerksen - a bible verse is the white…1 Peter 1:13-15.
and the purple is a preschool paper of questions to ask about their day…that annie covered with pink pen.
nothing interesting at all.

Emily Loria - I love Three’s Company. I had a crush on Jack for the longest time…
Glad you are feeling better!

Jennifer P. - come and knock on our door! We’ve been waiting for you!…… (I loved your 3’s Company reference:)!).
Annie sure is a cutie. Love that you type just the way she talks. You’ll want to remember that for sure.
Traci got me curious too about what is written on those papers. Hmmmm……

traci - she is just tooooooo cute!!!

traci - First of all you have THE CUTEST little girl in town, second I LOVE your house!! What are the pieces of paper on the wall next to the door with writing on them?

Andria - Love the post. Your flower arrangement is so beautiful. Please post your pumpkin muffin recipe. My best friend’s grandmother used to make the best pumpkin bread, I haven’t found a recipe even close.
You bring joy to my day!

Tonya - those books look fabulous…
I am a HUGE Amy Butler Fan…
looks like a nice relaxing day…
I need more of those…
Tonya

Adla - Hi there,
what wonderful pictures captured. loving the citruses in the vase 🙂

traci - I agree with Liz…this is just the most cheerful blog ever!!! You definately have a the gift with a camera. I love the flowers, bumball machine, flowers with little hairnets on as you worded it and everything else!!! Soooo glad you took time off to just relax in the midst of the sick storm your family is going thru. Tell Scott to hang on and be STRONG..

cynthia - love love love the lemons in the centerpiece! just beautiful!
and i couldn’t help but admire the gumball machine on your counter as well…now i want to take ours off it’s stand and put it in the kitchen!

danelle - I absolutely LOVED the video. I laughed outloud and that feels good!!!

carissa - that video is hilarious!
girl… you make my jaw drop each & every day with your beautiful… insightful posts! thanks!

Jennifer P. - Oh please invite me along on your next outing to Barnes and Noble. I’ll be quiet I promise :)! A little peace and quiet and a stack of decorating books looks sooooo nice. It’s been so loud and crowded in here lately. I think I’ve got cabin fever.
And I’m only like a hop, skip, jump and airpline flight away from Kansas, right?!
LOVE your display of the flowers, apples, and gumball machine. Such color! Thanks for giving me so many ideas.

Mom - The video is terrific. Would you come and put some flowers on my table?
Comment from Talby last weekend: She was looking at the arrangement on my table which is a candle in the big glass vase and fake snow around it and says: Grandma, why do you always have to be so fancy? I said: Because it makes me feel better and it looks pretty.
Runs in the family – huh.

Mrs. Fox - Loved the video! Nick Frost is so funny.

Liz - This might be my favorite post of all time. Seriously. I dont know what cheered me up more… seeing your cheerful flowers and cute gumball machine or watching that video. That was eerily accurate of man sickness. Cant wait to show that to Matt…

traci - what a great day for you. absolutely love the bookstore. you need to give the recipe for your pumpkin muffins – they look wonderful. what great decorating bits. the flowers are beautiful. very springy!!

prairie daze - i WOULD love that. more than much i can think of.
i’m so glad you got a date…

eryn - It’s from “The BreakUp” with Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston, right? I love that you put the citrus in the vase…so pretty!!

Kamee Nuzman - Darling. Darling. Darling. I love everything you got to do on your day off. I also am inspired by your angles! 😉 Loved the visit!

man down

January 23, 2008

craig just walked in…
11:00 PM.
“I have the flu”

it will be a miracle if scott doesn’t get this.
how are you feeling mom?

**************************************************
random quote: talby asks me…
“why were those girls here at wal-mart in the day?”
“they are homeschooled…their mom is their teacher.”
“ohhhh…is that why the mom wears glasses?”

carissa - OMG… I just laughed hard out loud. your kids are so funny!

Liz - That’s funny. You can tell your daughter that I often wonder the same thing, “Who are these people that wonder around WalMart in the middle of the day?” I dont know, but I want to be one of them! 🙂

traci - kids perceptions are so funny!! I dont know about with Craig but with most men they are the WORST when being sick…no one feels as bad as them..lol…hope this is all over soon.

Mom - This is day 3 and I’m still pretty bad. Kids bounce back so fast. It’s not fair. How are Annie and Talby and Craig?

prairie daze - i really am laughing

Jennifer P. - That must be why I needed glasses about the same year I started homeschooling! Do you think if I stopped I could get my 20/20 back?
Hope your husband feels better soon and that the flu makes its way through your house quickly. I think that’s easier to deal with than a couple of weeks of it at 2-3 day intervals.
