Evil in a jar
I am speaking of Nutella. The Italian version of peanut butter. It's hazelnut and cocoa spread. Nutritionally it's almost the same as peanut butter, if not better. It's more expensive but SO worth it, I mix it with peanut butter to make it easier to spread and a little more affordable. It's great on toast and I've seen desserts that you can make with it (I've never made any, I want to try making Nutella wontons).
Here is my favorite thing I've made with it so far. Take two of your favorite brand of frozen waffle and toast it to a golden brown, spread both lightly with butter, then spread with the Nutella, put together like a sandwich, eat (be careful, it's gooey).
Isabella loves peanut butter/Nutella sandwiches. She would eat them three times a day if I let her! Try it, you'll love it.

Because I'm a horrible mother this is SO late.
Happy birthday to my girl! I can't believe your four years old!
Her birthday was last Wednesday but we had her party on Sunday. She got some really good presents, lots of mermaids and fairies.
We got her a fish tank, a little one. We have two (we had three but one died already so we have to get another) guppies (boy is Blueberry and girl is Sunshine) and one little shrimp. She loves it so much, everyone that comes in our house has to go to the toy room to see it.
I'll try to post some pictures soon.

Little miss artist.
Patton painting for the first time. He discovered that rubbing tired eyes with messy hands is not a good thing to do.
Life is too crazy...
...and it is going to get worse!
I haven't sat at this computer since the third! Things are too crazy! I'm looking forward to this weekend. We have nothing planned outside of this house.
I want to finish cleaning my house. Not cleaning as in I have to pick up old newspapers, cleaning as in I shampooed the downstairs carpets last Sunday and I need to do the upstairs now (especially since Patton dumped shampoo on the carpet). I really need to clean out my bathroom cabinets, I still have things under there that the hospital sent home with me after having Patton! I'm also going to finally go through my closet! Even though I want to do all this stuff we'll see what really gets done. I would be nice to just veg all weekend! Anyone want to pick up my kids so I can truly veg all weekend?
Next week I'm going to go look at Isabellas new Preschool. Unlike her old school it has separate rooms for preschool and daycare. Even though I really liked the teachers at her old school I just felt like I was sending her to daycare for two and a half hours not school, I hope this is better.
Swim lesson (for both kids) start again nest week. I will not be guaranteeing when my next post will be!
I don't like repeating myself!
I'll say it one more time.

To Anonymous. I'm on my blog about 15 minutes a day when my kids are taking a nap or are in bed for the night. It is MY time, I'm on the computer less than an hour a day, how much time do you spend on the computer? I use it so my family that I don't get to see as often as I want can keep up with what is going on with my two very active kids and what has been happening in my life. I understand that anyone can get on and read it, I don't care that you read it, but you can keep your anonymous comments to yourself. What is wrong with your life that you feel the need to read about others and comment on what they are doing?
And no, I didn't need Midol that day, since you are so interested in my life I'll let you know that I was breastfeeding at that point and I wasn't getting my period!
