This is an open invitation for anyone else who would like to come lay all over me. Seriously! These cats have been ridiculous lately...they are both glued to me in addition to my two children who can never seem to be off of me. It's been making me crabby most days because I already feel totally cramped with the extra ten pounds that are riding in front of me (baby, placenta, amniotic fluid), then to have two kids literally smooshed up against each side of me and then the two cats right in my lap...I'm ready to just blow a gasket. I should probably feel loved but all I feel right now is overly crowded and claustrophobic.
The kids have both become addicted to PBSkids online so both computers have been in use as of late...now it looks like we might have to get another, whatever this thing is below of Chris'...
Ayris put these 3D glasses on last night because she said they reminded her of spongebob...
They actually remind me a little of Siobhan Magnus on American Idol...
Asher's turn...
Yeah, guess who has absolutely no future in the makeup artist industry? That would be Ayris! But it sure was relaxing to let her go crazy doing my makeup. Notice her favorite color pink is the standout but she did make sure to include my favorite color black as well!
The next few pictures are of my awesome organizational skills. I'm kidding. But I decided to start cleaning random areas out one by one and hope to have all the projects done before little man comes. This was the laundry room...I know...gross right?
It's so clean in there now though that it's kind of my favorite hangout. I get all happy when I open the door and realize how nice and neat it is...you might not be able to tell, but those shelves are highly organized...even though they might still look crowded...I haven't bargained shopped for toiletries in a long time...it turns out my stash is lasting FOREVER...

This was the hall closet...I just tackled it this morning...
I got rid of a bag full of trash (not that I was using it as a trash can...just boxes and random things we didn't need.) And two bags of blankets/sheets for goodwill...and I'm not big into folding sheets...more of a wadder...so those stacks are as good as it gets.
And this I just came across...it's Ayris' box of pacifiers...I haven't decided if I should put this away in her own box and buy all new ones for baby Collins or let him use these? I'm thinking they're kind of special and should be saved for her...her pacifiers were a huge thing...I do know for sure that I'm going to try with all my might to make this next kid a pacifier baby. I'd much rather deal with taking it away than dealing with everything going in the kids mouth. Asher wouldn't have a thing to do with pacifiers...and that's when I realized that kids actually put poop and sand, and goldfish left under the couch and rocks, etc in their mouths. I never had that problem with Ayris because she constantly had that pacifier in there. Not only that but Asher was on nightly bottles for about a year longer than Ayris because she was satisfied with just the pacifier at night and not a bottle. The only downfall I can see of the pacifier is having to go in about 10 times a night to give it to the baby until they're like 9 months old...at which point, you can just throw like 10 of them in the crib and the baby can find it themselves! This is probably half...maybe even a quarter of the pacifiers we went through with Ayris...
