Well I spent the last couple of days deciding on which Posies I would be planting this year, purchasing the posies, and deciding exactly where to place them. I love spring planting. I love annuals, perinnials, weeds, I love them all.
I purchased everything I wanted, and planted them all yesterday. I did some of both annuals and periennials.
Here in our part of Ohio we are always told it is safe to plant on Mother's Day! I planted on Mother's Day!
I am headed outdoors now armed with newspaper, sheets, pillowcases, anything I can find.. That's right it is now officially after Mother's Day! and I am covering plants because we are in a Frost warning.
If my flowers survive the frost I will have the kiddos take a few pictures of them and I will post them on my blog. The kiddos love using the camera and they take great pictures, Its fun to see thru their eyes.
Well wish me luck with my Posies...
Have Fun!
I just wanted to say the weeds I am loving right now are the Wild Phlox that popped up in my back flower bed, they are so pretty. I also like Dandelions.. That's right I said it outloud and proud of it...
If they were hard to grow we would all want them, the yellow is beautiful against my grass in the yard.

Kiddo Stories...
This week the kiddos have kept me busy with lots of stories. Goodness their little lives are so interesting. Chubba was going camping this weekend, He has talked about it all week, His best bud"Buddy" who also comes to daycare here at my home has heard such tales about the camping that "Buddy"wants to go with Chubba. He was invited... by Chubba (Chubba is a 4 year old boy). They were laying on their little beds for naptime I was covering them each up with thier blankets. Chubba says to Buddy "Hey when you come camping with us be sure you bring your bike".. Buddy Replies, "Yes, Sure Chubba that will be great" Chubba proceeds to tell him how far, and fast they will be able to ride their bikes at the campgrounds. I am finished covering all 6 kiddos up and Buddy says to Chubba, "Hey Chubba riding bikes at camping is going to be so much fun" he giggles.. all excited and then says.. "Hey Chubba, I thought of something, I don't have a bike.."
Those 2 boys crack me up.. it doesn't really matter if Buddy has a bike or not, because he isn't going camping with Chubba's family... He overlooked that fact.
There is never a dull moment. I am thankful everyday that we haven't had to visit the E.R. trust me when I walked into the Daycare room the other day with my mom's Breakfast Tray in my hands and saw the WEE Babe standing on the bench up to the Daycare Table I almost had a heart attack. He is almost 10 months old and has given me a head full of grey hair. He went from barely mobile to very mobile in a matter of days. He can't walk yet.. well couldn't when he left on Friday. Who knows what Monday will bring.
The other night my sisters and I took the two little princesses to the park, My Aunt, and Mom also went.. as well as my niece tinkerbell who thank goodness can still fit down the slides. Princess #1 is my niece and she is 2.. just turned 2 last week. Princess #2 is my great niece and she is 18 months old. They are two busy little girls. Princess #2 has absolutely positively no fear.. None... which is why it is good Tinkerbell could go down the slides... fast..
Princess #1 walked to the park with me.. She kept saying "I so cited, Rene, I so cited.. Run, Run" me run.. hello no that was not an earth quake.. Rene was running again.
We arrived at the park and Princess #1 changed her mind, not so excited anymore, she decides instead to look at the River, (park sits next to a creek/crick). She kept wanting to go and see the fish and frogs in the River.. We(my sis and I) quickly changed her mind. My mom and aunt went to my sisters for dinner and the princess is still telling about her great adventures at the park... mostly she wants to see the fishes at the river. Someday little girl. ( She should ask her Great Great Uncle Bob to take her to see the fishes, he took me when I was little).

Busy!!
Wow I have been so busy, I can't believe the week is almost over already. I am also thankful it is Thursday. Whooo hopefully tomorrow will be a nice day and the kiddos and I can spend a couple of hours outdoors.
The kiddos were able to go outside and run today. They couldn't play on the climbers and things because they are full of puddles and there is mud under them. I am going to go to Menards and buy some of the Rubber Mulch or the Rubber Squares to put under the climber. It will have to wait until Sunday or Monday.
I filled the Step2 Sand and Water table with Sand on Tuesday. What fun that was. The kiddos hadn't played in it since the fall so it was like a brand new toy to them. The Wee Babe... Wow he loved it. When his mom came I told her his diapers could be interesting, between eating grass, sand and mandarin oranges for the first time.
Well Survivor is starting, I don't usually watch it but my Aunt is here visiting and she likes it and has me hooked.. I would love to see Coach go home tonight. Of course I want Taj to come out a winner because she is the wife of Eddie George, who played for the Buckeyes and graduated from Ohio State the same day as my Sister.
Have fun Everyone!

My Favorite Man just let me down!
He did it, Its only Tuesday and he has ruined my week... He let me down.. He said the dreaded words...RAIN!!! That's right RAIN!
My Favorite Man, the Weather Guy just said the word Rain for today.. Does he not realize today is my busiest kiddy day of the entire week? Does he not realize that I have flowers I wanted to plant? Does he not realize that Rain, and 6 kids do not mix well?
Mike, oh Mike, how could you do this to me... Today!!! of all days..TAKE It Back please!
I would say he is wrong, but Weather man Mike.. is almost always right.
This means I will be inside with Chubba all day, I am tired just thinking about how many times I will have to say Chubba, inside voice, Chubba no running in the house, Chubba please quit jumping, Chubba, Chubba, Chubba..... oh goodness its going to be a long day.
I may have to hurry out to the garage and get the Water/Sand Table and bring it in the house. Hmmm I have no sand right now, Don't want to use water in the house... I think I have a new box of Cheerios, and Rice Krispies.. I could dump them in and they could play with the cars and trucks and then just maybe I won't have to say... No running, jumping, in the house. Instead I can say... Hey Hey Hey please do not dump anymore of that cereal on the floor!
I am off... Have a Great Day!

I am Tweeting Now!
Wow What a Very Very Busy Weekend and it is only Saturday. Today was my adorable niece's 2nd birthday party. All of the family were invited to my sister and brother in laws to help celebrate this Happy Day! It was so much fun. The Princess was slightly overwhelmed but she livened up quickly. She loved all of her gifts. She is growing up way to quickly. I wish they came with a slow down button.
After the Birthday party we dropped my mom off at home as she was ready for a nap, My sister M3, My aunt and I did some running around. We went to Best Buy and I purchased my new Kodak printer. I am going to attempt to hook it up tomorrow or monday. After Best Buy we had some dinner at Applebees, it was really good and we had exceptionally good service. I have noticed the last couple of times we have been out to eat lately how great the service has been, Olive Garden last week we had a great waiter, He kept calling my mom "Babe" which about did me in.. too funny.
After Applebees we made a stop at Once Upon a Child. My sister was able to find some great summer bargains for her little granddaughter, my Aunt purchased some great Cleveland Brown's items for my little cousins back in Penna.. Hi Guys!~! Miss you bunches.
After arriving home,I joined Twitter.. goodness still slightly confused by twitter but will catch on hopefully. If you stop by and Twitter be sure to hit my birdie and follow me on Twitter.
My giveaway is ending tomorrow so be sure you stop by and leave a comment, also check out my Sister In Laws giveaway at Lovemy2dogs.
Have Fun Everyone, I am!
