Kelcy is freaking hilarious!!!

So now that I'm unemployed I seem to spend a large portion of my day aimlessly browsing the internet. Let me just tell you the internet is NOT big enough to keep me entertained. However, while browsing Regretsy today I came across this.

Tracy was on his break from work and we both sat there and laughed for a few minutes at the shear ridiculousness of this. Seriously. So after we stopped laughing I ask out loud, "What do you even do with this??"
and Kelcy looked at it and goes: "Throw it in the dumpster."
Yep!
P.S. I am in no way dissing Etsy. Etsy is amazing and there are some SERIOUSLY talented people selling their handmade goods and art.
However, there is a lot of random crap on there too. :)

Hieb Look-alike Meter

So I posted Kelcys kindergarten pics on facebook and lots of people have been saying she is a mini me. This is confusing to me because i've always thought that Kelcy looks way more like Tracy. Actually I think both my girls look more like him. So I decided to settle the debate... and according to my heritage... I am wrong! lol
she looks more like me by 8%... go figure.

P.S. I had so much fun with kelcys I decided to do one for Madison as well... it said she looks equally like Mom and Dad.

Stress and Distractions

So my stress level lately has been at an all time high. Why?
I got fired.
That's right. Fired. Laid off, let go, terminated... however you say it, it only means one thing. I'm unemployed.
Do you know what that means??
No money.
None.
Christmas is coming. We now have no health insurance (this is very very temporary problem but still)
I'm seriously freaking out.
Unemployment only goes so far (pray that it gets approved PLEASE!!)
I have an interview lined up and am submitting resumes every day but seriously, sooooo stressed. Can't even tell you how stressed.
So in addition to job hunting,I've been filling my days with distractions including cleaning (i need to do this even more still!), reading, playing with my girls, working out and doing "fun" cheap things.
We went to the pumpkin patch:






We took the girls to see Toy Story 3 at the dollar movies. And as part of an assignment for Tracys art class, we went to the Utah Museum of Fine Art









All of these pics were taken with permission from the museum and they were all flash free.
It only cost us $7.00 to go the museum and we took the girls too. Totally a good deal! Tracy and I could have spent hours and hours in the museum and had an awesome date, but since we took the girls we were only there about an hour and a half.
Anyways, if anyone hears of a totally awesome job... Hook a friend up!

Happy Birthday Madison!

My baby is 3!!! I can't even believe it! She is getting so big its totally freaking me out. she talks, she has hair now. It's such a huge change! They grow so fast!

Maddies First Haircut

After we dropped Kelcy off for her first day of school, we took Madison in for her first haircut. She found scissors and we needed to do a little fixing to make it presentable.

We thought they both deserved ice cream for their big days

unfortunately for us Maddies haircut lasted about a week before she found scissors again... yes really. I dont know how.

This is how Maddie reacted to driving away and leaving Kelcy at school

Kindergarten Baby!

In honor of my sweet Kelcy starting school we decided to have a photo shoot! I decided this is going to be our yearly tradition. She was so excited. She picked the 3 outfits herself out of her TON of school clothes she got. She matched them all with her super cute twinkle toes. They were her special starting school prize. Madison got a pair as well but they are for her birthday in two weeks!











I decided to experiment with photoshop elements... i'm not very good yet but hopefully i'll get better!!
