In the Car...

This is an actual conversation that occurred while we were in the car today. Names have not been changed, as NO ONE is innocent:

Loki: Mama, Sissy won't share!
Howie: Loki, she doesn't have anything.
Loki: Yes, she does and she won't share.
Howie: Well, what does she have? I don't see anything.
Loki: She has M&M's.
Howie: No she doesn't! Where would she have gotten M&M's from?!
Loki: They're pretend M&M's.
Howie: Loki, I'm sorry, I don't think I can make your sister share the pretend M&M's that she doesn't even realize she has.

These are the days of our lives...More to come soon!

Happy Birthday Loki

Wow, I can't believe how old our children are getting! Hope the big guy had a great day and that his momma had a special snuggle or 5 with her birthday boy. Love you all!

Ps. This was from when we first started the blog and the most "newborn" picture I could find of Loki in a hurry.

Checking in

Ok, so I didn't post last month, but that was really only 3 days ago.... So, I am either late or early, you be the judge. March was a pretty busy time for our family. Brian has been traveling quite frequently, Melissa and I parted ways at the studio so that meant I had to pick up all of her shifts and Reagan, well, she's still our crazy little monkey.

I am excited to enter into April with a newly hired manager (Britney) and not much planned in our family/work life except until the end of the month. I should be able to catch up on my sleep, cleaning, crafting, etc etc.

Tomorrow, I am planning on sending in the deposit for our mountain house/july 4th getaway. Here is the link for the house just in case those of you who are not going want to be jealous.

That's pretty much all I have on my end. I am throwing in a few pictures of Reagan... just because she is cute! Love you all.

Latest trip to Disney. We waited 1 hour and 20 minutes to see Flynn Rider and Rapunzel and it was worth every second!

I made the scrapbook for her class auction and I got this face shot, so cute!

Photos

Here is a photo from Valentine's Day. We went out to lunch and Rebecca got a red and white cookie. I had no idea the frosting was soft....she loved it!

Updates and Random Stuff

Great idea Krame--We should post at least once a month! Count me in!

Let us see what is going on here--
My parents were here in Feb for a visit. It was my Mom's Christmas Present. We had a blast and it was a nice mommy break for me. My in-laws came for a long weekend right after my parents left and that was fun too.
After that, we all got sick. I really think the first round was brought to us by the Allen's. We are now on the mend...finally! We actually went to the park this week so that was good exercise!
Next up is trying to find a baby sitter. I have decided that I would like a night out once in a while and I am tired of telling people we can't go here or there cause of Rebecca. Sean says he is not ready to leave Rebecca with a stranger yet but I think my plan of several meetings and playdates will convince him.
After that is Mommy and Me swimming classes in April. I am really looking forward to it. Rebecca loves the water so it will be great! Plus is gets us out of the apt for a bit.

Randoms--I was planning on posting pics of Rebecca but the camera needed charged and by then her hair was messed up and so forth and so one. This weekend I will get a few good shots and post!

Here I am

So I never write on this thing because I never really have much worth telling. We don't have kids to report about and the cat stories get old, although not to us. ;-). My family is going through some very difficult stuff right now so I've been dealing with that. Our website is always keeping us busy, always looking for new products, etc.

Elena is doing well although probably about fed up with all this family nonsense but she is a trooper. We had a great dinner with Addison the other night, oh and Kirky and Kramer were there too!!

Dana is flying Michelle and i up to Philly for Charlie's 1st bday party which will include a hay ride might I add. Can't wait for that!

Other than that I spend my days and nights just plugging along and trying to figure out why certain things happen the way they do. Hope to hear from everyone soon!

A Tale of Toes!

Boy, you know it's been too long when the first post of 2011 doesn't come until March.

I have all sorts of posts swimming around my head...in fact, I even have chicken pox pictures ready to put up - and that was FOREVER ago...UGH...sorry to let the ball drop for so long. Krames, you're right...thanks for pushing our butts into gear...we really do need to keep this going.

Since there is really NO way to make up for lost time (well, it would take about 100 posts), I'll just move forward with a post that can be summed up by the health of my toenails!

Prior to Friday, the last time I had a pedicure was before we came down to Florida at Thanksgiving! Now, don't get me wrong my toes weren't a toe-tal nightmare - but they were in need of some serious help. It wasn't until Friday that I felt that I absolutely NEEDED to do something about it. On Friday we took out a 'Sex and the City' tour and one can't exactly be a tour guide for a SATC tour and not look absolutely FABULOUS!

So, I got a wonderful, kids-less, pedicure! And while it was very nice, it would have been ALOT nicer to have one of you sitting in the chair next to me!!! (Here's hoping we can make that happen soon!)

Anyway, Friday night we took a group of gals around town and showed them a wild and crazy time which I feel almost certain that none of them will remember. Not a one of them were able to get off the bus without assistance. And of course, then I wondered why I had put so much time and energy into making sure that I had all of my facts straight and followed the SATC theme (which was especially difficult since I still have yet to see an entire episode).

After getting home late Friday night, with a my toes still shining radiantly from my strappy stilletos, I arose early to adorn them in bright green knee highs and running shoes to hit the pavement with Whitebread! We finished this years 'Chasing Snakes 10K' with a completion time of 10 minutes faster than last year!!!

By the time we got home from that, I barely had a chance to rinse my little piggies off and slip them into a historic pair of 1920's mauve pumps embelleshed with sequin trim so that I could help lead a walking tour of historic downtown Johnson City dedicating the 11 new Historic Markers that have been put in place.

Luckily, that was the end of the wild toed wackiness for the weekend and my toes danced a German jig of joy as we indulged at Frieburg's, our local German restaurant for lunch and then...get ready for it...cause it really happened....the WHOLE Bunn family took a THREE hour nap!!!! It was DIVINE!

And the best part is...my toes STILL look AWESOME! :D

In other exciting news, only 1 in 5 Bunn's is still ill. Sweet Atticus is still congested but staying strong. At 11 weeks old he is the biggest Bunn baby and the happiest! We'll be hosting potty training boot camp for Elora the week after next while the kids are on Spring Break from preschool. And Loki continues to question our authority along with every other aspect of life!

And for fun, I thought you might like a pic of the crazy Bunnlettes:
In summary, things are good (albeit CRAZY)!

Much love to All...we hope to see everyone soon.
