Saturday: What a boring title.

Ever notice how crazy things become once you have kids? : ) Crazy is not all bad, though! Look how adorable it can be, too!

David got the shark hat from Aunt Erin and sunglasses from MawMaw for his birthday. Tacky little muscle shirt was a must-have from Good Will!

I've had to move to a new angle for the house pictures. Here's today's work. Most noticeably, they started the house wrap & roof felting.

Introducing Junior Bear...

You've probably heard me mention CPR Teddy by now. You're about it hear it again, because I think this is a great product! If you're not sure how CPR Teddy works, watch this 3:39 min video:

.

That's the president of the company doing the video. She's really nice, too!

Here is our CPR Teddy with David back when we first got Teddy in 2006. Aren't they both adorable?!?!

Now, the folks at CPR Teddy have been hard at work for over a year on CPR Teddy Jr. and his due date has finally been scheduled - December 2008! He can be pre-ordered now* through July 16 at a discounted price, though...

.

Junior is a smaller bear, about 8", with a clip on his head - designed to be clipped onto your diaper bag, carseat, high chair, or anywhere else you think he'd come in handy. The photo at right is the prototype bear. The final bear will be slightly different.

Like his full size big brother, CPR Teddy Jr. has voice prompts to walk you through the steps of Infant or Child CPR - and - he is regulated by the FDA as a medical device, designed to be used during an actual emergency! How's that for peace of mind, packaged as an adorable little teddy bear?!

I'm an independent distributor of CPR Teddy and now have my website set up so you can buy CPR Teddy, Junior, or any other CPR Teddy products 24/7 with the secure PayPal check-out. With PayPal, I can accept your PayPal account payment or your credit card payment... or you can mail me a check! : )

*Offer on CPR Teddy Jr. at the discounted pre-order price good through July 16, 2008.

After that date, pre-orders will be at the full price.

Hmmm.... I wonder if anyone would be interested in a GIVEAWAY for one CPR Teddy Jr. (to be delivered in December)?

First Pool Day of Summer

I decided to go with a blow-up pool this summer. Seemed like it would be easier to move around the yard. Today, it almost took me up the hill with a gust of wind. I think it's smaller than last year's pool, but they enjoyed it nonetheless.

Of course, David took his sharks out to the pool with him.

We used Elizabeth's ladybug sprinkler to fill the pool. It wasn't long before David was playing with the ladybug & Elizabeth was playing with the sharks!

Last summer I never got a picture of Elizabeth in her swimsuit. That won't be a problem this summer!

While the kids were playing in the pool, the guys were putting up the sheathing on the house!

If you're wondering what's going on with Tiny Talk Tuesday, I tried to do it yesterday. I even had a piece of paper that I'd been writing things on... but I seem to have misplaced it.

Congratulations, Lauren!

Tonight my oldest niece graduates from high school in California. I'm so proud to be the aunt of such a wonderful young lady!

My Husband Rocks!!!

I just found this giveaway at Livin' With Me & I'm so excited about it! She's partnered with From*Me Tees to give away one of these awesome t-shirts. I almost hate to spread the news, reducing my chances to win... but on the other hand, I have just found a company that I feel really good about supporting.

So I'll reduce my odds and tell you to go enter the contest for the shirt, or at least read the contest post. Then go over to From*Me Tees, look at their products, read the about & FAQ pages, and feel confident in supporting this company also!

And it doesn't hurt that they're right here in Texas, either! ; )

Oh, yeah - My husband rocks because he's a great dad, a talented guy, a hard worker, he loves his job as a fireman, (he loves Texas, too) and just a few days ago he sent me an unsolicited email telling me a few things he loves about me. How's that for a rock star!?! Yep, my husband rocks!

Ceiling Framing

Ceiling framing was done today. I thought the house looked neat with the late afternoon sun going through the ceiling beams. David liked seeing a ceiling on his "very own room."

I don't think I've mentioned this to Aunt Sissy yet - Remember that window I brought home from Illinois? We're going to use it in the house!!! I've been moving it around with me for over 10 years! : )

A Dino-fun Day!

Today David went with MawMaw and some other family members to Dinosaur World in Glen Rose. Looks like they had a fun day! Special thanks to Aunt Marlene who emailed me the pictures so quickly!!!

Here's Grana & Papa with their great grandkids:

David rawring like a dinosaur:

They also dug for fossils:

I had a great day, too. I took a nap with Elizabeth and went to the bathroom by myself!!!

This is amazing!

I missed taking a picture one day & today's picture looks like this!!!
David was excited to go into his room!

Shark Art

I just realized I never posted a picture of David's shark painting. I drew the shark outline with white crayon & David water colored. It's now framed.

Floor is Coming In!

Tomorrow they'll put down the floor board and mark out the walls with chalk. Then we can see how everything lays out & make any changes if we need to before any framing starts going up.
