Goodbye Farmville!

Ok so lame I know... and yes I am writing about it. I woke up this morning, got the kids eating and sat down to play some farmville, and suddenly thought REALLY? I mean come on... I could be sitting with the kids, eating with them and playing even more with them. This is stupid. I worry about my crops... yes I felt LAME! Sooo deleted... blocked, erased.. GONE! I feel... hmmm relief. I can blog, knit, play with kids and do lots of other things instead of that. And my husband can stop making fun of me. YES! A friend of mine deleted it a month or so ago and I remember thinking.. wow wish I could do that. Then I realized that yes it was an addiction and it needed to go.
Well don't want to spend to much time one here... twins are sleeping and it is just me and Trace.. time to sit down and play or cuddle him.. whatever he wants! sigh... bliss!!!!

Teeth, painting.... hmmm what else???

Well it seems as though the mystery of the fussy kid has solved itself. Canaan has popped a tooth. That makes 5 for him and 4 for Jaxon. Wondering when his will pop. In good news Trace's last 2 year molar has finally popped through!!! HE IS DONE!!!! Ahhh and breathe. I have to say I am not a fan of this whole teething thing, the kids are uncomfortable, they get whiney and then I get... hmm winey? lol as in a nice drink at the end of the day!
I don't remember if I mentioned this before but I am also done nursing them! yup... made it to 14 months. Never had to buy them formula thank you! I have to admit.. I understand that yes breastfeeding is good for the kids, it gives them everything they need but I found that my main motivation was the price of formula.. is that so wrong? I realized with Trace that formula is not always the easy way to go. It is so much easier to just whip a boob out feed and put it back away. No sterilizing, no bottle prep.. no worrying about temp of anything... although happy to say boys are on Whole milk and I am done!
The parents are away in Palm Springs right now so Kyle and I have decided to paint the master bedroom. I did a base coat and a first coat today... while kids were eating and sleeping... Kyle will finish the two walls tonight and we can start on the other two walls tomorrow!!! Mom and Dad will be very surprised! Maybe our room will finally feel like our room instead of my parents old bedroom. I have to say that living at home again... although it has some challenges has been a lot of fun.
In amazing news my sister in law and brother in Edmonton are coming in 13 more sleeps! I am soo excited to finally see them. I have missed them. We are all going to cram inside the house and hopefully head to the aquarium and do some other fun stuff while they are here!
Ok kids are getting fussy and I need to make a phone call... will hopefully post some pics soon!
