Bannud It's about time I tell you that we got a bunny. We named her Bannud Foo foo. We love her!!! This is our first pet, and I have to say I'm liking it. She's low maintenance and soooooo cute and soft. The boys love her too. Especially Sloan. At some point I should post some pictures, especially before she's full grown. Who doesn't love a baby bunny? She's so tame too. Yep, we love her. We got her from Andrea who has baby bunnies regularly at her house.
In other news that should be mentioned. I'm on two indoor soccer teams. One is co-ed with Kyle, the other is an all girls team. It just sort of happened that I ended up on two teams, and I'm not complaining. It's fun to play with Kyle, and it's fun to play with all girls. Last week we made more of a date out of it and went to see Breaking Dawn. SO. GOOD. Ever since we watched it I've been craving to go and watch it again.
Today I started getting Christmas decorations out. What can I say? I embrace this time of year, and Katie, if you're reading this- which is doubtful because I know my blog is on the bottom of your blog list- I say if you have a fake tree, why not put it up a little earlier? Since it's a hassle for you, you may as well go through the hassle to enjoy it for a longer period of time. What's wrong with extending the Christmas enjoyment? In my opinion it all comes and goes too fast.
I've been trying to get some day care work. It would help us out a lot if we had a little extra income, and this is the only way that I've come up with that would let me take care of my own kids. I really only want one or two kids. It's been hard though, because I don't really know anyone, to spread the word, and I haven't had a lot of response to my adds that I've put up. Today at strong start and Adriel's school I got some leads. Apparently it's the thing to do. I see lots of women at Adriel's school that do it. I sort of want to tell them to stop hogging all the kids. One lady has like 6 kids with her when she picks up her kid. Sheesh. Share. Maybe something will come up soon...
I really don't have that interesting of a life, which is why I don't write very often.
I wish I was crafty and had the materials and space to create lots of cute things, especially at this time of year. Trying to come up with gifts can be hard.

Sloanster Here's a list of things my monster has done in just the past two weeks:
- Went into the cupboards and got the icing sugar and dumped it all out in the toy box.
- Coloured a nice black border around my mattress with mascara on the day my bedding had been stripped
-Found a wood pen that was left in the house when we got here and used it to color the floor, the wall, the toy box, the toilet seat and my couch
-Got into the bathroom cleaner and found a spray with bleach and sprayed his room, bleached clothes, blankets, you name it
- I put the bathroom cleaner up really high, and he got it down (I still haven't figured out how) and sprayed again. I had to hide it in a really hard place to get at.
-Got into my make up again and spilled my gold powder in his room (getting into my makeup is a new thing. Since he's getting bigger, and I've always kept my makeup in a drawer and it's never been a problem, I wasn't expecting to have to deal with it now)
- Laura came and he got into her lotions and toners and dumped them out and smeared them on her new camp cot.
- We finally got these child proof things for our bathroom drawers. Yet, somehow he still managed to open it enough to stuff his chubby paws in and get Laura's mascara. He did this while he had been in the bathroom to go poop. Instead of calling me to wipe his bum, he sat down on the bathroom floor and colored the floor with the mascara. He also got it allll over his bare legs. You can imagine the clean up. I put him in the bath.
- Laura and I left to replace the mascara, hers and mine, and get hair products. When we came back, the shop vac was in the house. Sloan had dumped a whole bag of flour out in our living room, all over the couch, all over Adriel who was too engrossed in his tv show to notice until it was too late.

I'll laugh about this one day, right??
