Our Christmas

Merry Christmas to all of our family and friends. We missed you all so much! Since I know Carson's Grandparents are wanting to see pictures of Carson, I decided to share with everyone.

First is our snowman. Carson wasn't much help making it, but he made a great supervisor.

Here is Carson opening his "fire boy" transformer. For those who don't know, our neighbors call Carson "fire boy" because he runs so fast. Carson just loves the his alter ego.

Of course the 'Christmas sweater".

His newest infatuation is with little tiny lego's

The never ending infatuation with all things involving space.

At least it doesn't need batteries, or make annoying sounds

Carson just loves his new space shuttle and helmet. He has discovered that it is a great seat to watch movies from, and even asked if he could sleep on it.

Dont Complain!!!

It has come to my attention that some of my blog fans are sick of hearing about our "little" water problem. So I have moved on to the next problem.....
MOLD

Can you say "Oh gross dude!! What is growing on your wall"

However. My favorite was the fuzzy white stuff. It looked like snow. Ah... beautiful snow.
Like a white wonderland just in time for Christmas .

But don't worry its all under control.... and we are high on bleach fumes :)

(see don't complain about my lack of interesting posts because this is what I do!)

The rain came down...and the flood came up

I had a hard time deciding if I would name this post "The rain came down and the flood came up" or "Home Owner@#$%!". Since I never, never swear (until today)...I decided on the former.
SOoooo. It has been raining a lot here in Massachusetts. That is really not anything new, it always rains here. But, I guess it doesn't usually rain in the winter.
Long story short- I came home on Friday afternoon to find this in my basement.

WATER....

2-3 inches of water... Throughout the entire basement

ICE COLD WATER!!!!!

Can you guess what I said???
Can you guess what Curtis said when I called him at work to tell him we were now proud owners of an indoor pool???
No?

Oh @#^&%$#@@~!!!!

sPelLinG pRoBlemS?

Well....
I cant spell. You know it... I know it. There is really no need to pretend like it doesn't exist, to get embarrassed, or hide it under the rug.
I have tried and tried and tried. So now I use spell check. You would think that a person who reads 2-3 book a week would know how to spell. But no.
Love me for who I am ;)

We recently played a loud game of "Cranium" with a few close friends. On one of our turns my team was told to spell 'typhoon'. I immediately look to my team members to answer the question. But they just cant take NO for an answer. So they start pestering me, saying "you can spell" or "come on!" or "you read a ton, certainly you can spell".
I spelled it wrong. Not enough O's.
So they tease and tease, until I am Forced to post this on the blog
I CANT SPELL. SO SHUT UP!!!!!

Then Carson comes up to me and says "Its ok Mom I cant spell either. Lets watch the 'ABC' movie every day, that might help us"
See. Carson doesn't like it when you tease me.
