this describes jordan to a T!
"Boys are found everywhere - on top of, underneath, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around or jumping to."

weekend fun
our "weekend" starts on thursday nights. Since asah usually has fridays off i consider thurs-sat our weekends. this particular weekend began with a bang. every thursday night our friends mark and megan come over for our "office party". we always tivo the office and watch together. asah wanted some cookies, so we had the idea of making office cookies with the characters names on them (and ours too). we're complete dorks. on a sad note, the office writers are some of the ones on strike so next weeks episode is the last until it's resolved. bummer.
then friday i watched jadyn and jordan. jadyn is only a couple months older than J and they play well together. here are a few pics and a video. it was a fun morning.
this particular activity is called "put the wrapping paper in the washing machine." dont' criticize! it kept them very busy for awhile.
to round out the weekend fun we went to the southeastern homecoming parade. for some reason jordan would not nap in the early pm, so it was around 3 and he'd had NO nap. wow. he was a bit overwhelmed at all the noises (fire trucks, bands, etc) but he hung in there. we went with the chance crew. what a bunch of cutie pies.
our husbands were out of town. we are two brave mamas, huh?
notice the episcopal teens in the backround. i felt terrible. we were right in front of their church, attending a parade, and there was a funeral going on. we even got in trouble for letting our kids play in the courtyard prior to the funeral. bad timing for a parade i suppose.
they all looked! this is a MIRACLE picture!

scrounged up a couple deals for ya
#1 Rachel Ray Magazine Subscription-$4.80 Christmas gift?!?!
Subscribe here, enter code "RR" at checkout and get a year of Every Day with Rachel Ray for $4.80. Not too shabby.
#2 Buddy Coupons are Back!
Johnson and Johnson "reset" the Bath Buddy coupon so you can now print two more even if you previously printed them. The best deal is to try and find the bar soap for kids, it's usually around $1 and with the coupon it's free. I have about 12 of these stocked up. I plan on Jordan starting to use this type of soap soon. It smells yummy and helps teach toddlers/young kids to wash themselves.
CLICK HERE
Enjoy.

trick or treat!
we had a great night last night. at 5 we had a picnic with a whole bunch of friends at the park. we then had a whole caravan of strollers, mommies, and daddies and trick or treated downtown. Jordan racked up on some great candy for mommy and daddy (I mean himself..hee hee). Next we went to our neighborhood and passed out candy with 4 other houses in Paiges yard. Jordan passed out when we got home. It was 8; an hour past his bedtime. We didnt hear a peep.
Enjoy the pics!
paige (in teal dress) had "dressed up" as a guy...in drag. pretty funny.
for you allison! sorry J wasnt looking.
too busy for deals?
yep, you read it correctly. this week has been crazy and i have yet to even clip my coupons from LAST sunday's paper. we had the trunk or treat, then Halloween, and TODAY is the big fundraising banquet for work. so needless to say i've been oblivious to the deals.
found this one yesterday, though. hopefully someone can still get in on it. the cheapest thing on the site is $28; but with a free $20 giftcard it could make a great Christmas gift or something.
Free $20 giftcard for Dale and Thomas popcorn:
http://www.daleandthomaspopcorn.com/vzgiftcard.aspx
just to convince you, the Today show calls this the "Rolls Royce of Popcorn" and it's one of Oprah's favorite things.
I've never tasted the stuff but it's some expensive popcorn so it best be good!
Halloween pics will be up later today....hopefully.
can someone please pass this memo along to my neighbor?
Sec. 7-20. Keeping barking dogs prohibited.
It shall be unlawful for any person or the owner or anyone that has charge, control or custody thereof to keep any dog within the corporate limits of the city which howls, yells or barks excessively as to disturb the sleep, peace and quiet of any inhabitant of the city.
no sleep for the past few nights. our bedroom is right beside a fence that keeps 2 dogs that continually bark.
any tips or advice?
