i-crazy

The girls love the i-phone and i-pad to the point where they can't be visible or it will lead to a melt down.  So if you call we aren't avoiding your phone call.. we are avoiding a toddler throwing a fit because she can't have our phone.  When they learn how to share or not make inappropriate phone calls or texts then they can have our i-phones and i-pad whenever they want.

We hoped that by given Teagan the phone we could get a good picture.. not so much.

I have it all to myself!

But what's on TV might be better.

Tres Amigas

A rare we love each other and will smile moment.

In other family news... I had my third hip surgery last week.  It was supposed to be a quick, easy surgery to remove scar tissue and tighten my capsule so I would have more movement and less pain.  The surgery turned into an hour and a half procedure where the doctor found my tendon was rubbed raw, I had lots of scar tissue to remove, a piece of floating cartilage that had to be taken out, and my capsule was tightened.   Due to the damage I will need a total hip replacement in the next 10-20 years.

No kids for a night, the girls get outside


Brielle spent the night with Joy and Teagan and Rianne spent the night with Gracie and Angie and Craig so we had no children last night and were a little confused. We quickly regrouped and headed to Buffalo Wild Wings for a little dinner, Olive Garden for a little dessert, found a movie and stayed up really late. That's right 9 with a three-o after it. Brielle is here alone with me (Tony) playing quietly while I do the blog. One of the writers that came to DMACC is going to be on the Today show and I should be able to watch and hear it!

Feels so good to be outside!!!

Oh, fresh air, taste it, fresh air!

Oh, no, what is that?

Teagan's not scared, well...

She can close her eyes and it's not there.

She's extending a hand in friendship to the alien...
I'm not sure if that helmet's the right size for that head!

Oh, it's just daddy, lame sauce.


Dream Sequence: Brille opens the cupboard.

And throws away her snacks after she's done.
Mindy's having surgery Wednesday, so it will be an interesting week!

Just a couple of pics and a Pregnancy Test



Rianne sporting a new pink polo sweater and her TheNorthFace jacket...

It's so warm and comfortable...

I wonder if this is a bit too much inside the house...

You're looking at the new face of Ralph Lauren! Baby model...Holla!

Well, if you must ask, I wouldn't have minded having a pocket right here...

No Rianne, we are not putting hydraulics into the wagon...

Teagan getting in Dukes of Hazzard Style...

And just after she gets in, she wants out....

Rianne just loves having her jacket on inside...and of course her ears...



Who do you think's gonna win the superbowl Brielle? Ravens. Fo' Sho'.

Do or do not, there is no try to win the Superbowl...
If I just turn this knob here...

Teagan, don't touch that...oh, no the lights went out on the Superbowl....
Rianne did it...

Rianne's sleeping....

Brielle, what would you think about having a younger brother? Bri: I don't know what to say...

Teagan? So there would be 1, 2, 3, 4 of us?

How would we all fit in the wagon?

He ain't touching my books...
Mindy was feeling a little worn out and we checked, just in case...
