El Buzzo

We actually went to the movies last night as a family and watched Toy Story 3. No, it wasn't in 3D. Our little 4 screen theater doesn't have that. It was the first movie that Hailey's been to see, and she loved it! Bobby and I both really liked it too but were super impressed with Hailey's ability to sit through the movie. She didn't exactly SIT through the entire thing, but she was well behaved and didn't whine, cry or bother anyone. She watched most of the movie. She investigated the red lights that line the aisle in the dark. She even danced to the music while the credits rolled at the end. So much fun!
It was our first time going to the movie theater here. It's super cute. One of our favorite parts was listening to at least 5 different people's peanut M&M's roll underneath the seats. Too funny.

On a sad note, Chicken died on Sunday. Out of the blue. I just got done giving her props for laying eggs again! Bobby and I were actually outside making her a new coop and then found her in the bushes. We've had her for over 7 years. They say that typically chickens don't live that long, so it was probably just old age. Bye Chicken. RIP.

Sluggish

that's the word that completely describes how I've been feeling. like when i walk around, i have concrete stuck on my feet. i've even been downing mountain dew to try to give me some pep in my step. no bueno. goodbye liquid crack. you're only making me fatter. and still sluggish. hoping that my dr appt next week will work some magic.

happy happy birthday to you. to you. happy 20 month birthday, my little firecracker. coppertop. tuffy. curly q.

a first for this week? speeding ticket! at the airport no less. dropped bobby off at the curb. hailey started crying for daddy as we sped away. around the first turn, doh! cops all with radar guns. 5 of us, all in a row. construction zone. going 43 in a 25. i would've been angry if i was going 26 and got a ticket. at least i was speeding pretty good to deserve it!

did i mention we now have a 2nd chicken? we figured chicken was lonely. now we also have chicken little. we get eggs from her. and chicken thinks she has to compete so she started laying again too. hailey loves to feed them. and feed them. and feed them some more. even if she dumps it in her shirt. or down her diaper. (that's fun to find later). or in her face. she's a farm girl, i'm sure of it.
