Dads Rock Too Share Café

Day on the boat sounds fabulous Katie! We cruised the beach this morning... lounging on a boat would have been nice though!

Katie: Sounds like a fun day!!

Lauren: Ha!! You're just now figuring out you're pregnant?

Busy yet slow day today! Went to toys r us trying to scout out a water or sand table for Elim to play in, didn't find anything I was overly excited about, they all looked easily breakable. So we came home and he napped, then off to get some yogurt and target and scored a cute little water table for him along with some toys like a funnel and little dolphin. Then came home and hit up the neighborhood pool for the first time! He's not a fan of his floaty thing but he loved me tossing him around in the water, even dunked his head a few times without getting upset!

Brave lil' dude!! Glad you found one... was gonna suggest Amazon where I found all kinds of cute ones... only to find they don't ship here. Thankfully we found one on the rock- hours of fun!

Booo on the shipping! Oh yes, and I got a sprinkler fun thing for him to run through too, that plus the toys and table together was cheaper than the one I was thinking about at toys r us if I couldn't find anything else! We'll see if he agrees that the sprinkler is fun.

Lauren~ LOL!! Had to laugh at the "I'm pregnant" comment!! Seriously.....it was like you just found out and boom there's a belly to go with it!!

Stacy~ My nephew's feet required the pricier wides as well, but now that he's older, he can wear "normal" shoes. Ansley is now to the bigger kids sizes/ lower women's sizes (Um yeah... ) and talk about pricier!!! She may go barefoot for as long as possible!!

Enjoyed some yummy Outback tonight for a Father's Day outing with my daddy! Even the kids were well behaved so the word "enjoyed" wasn't even stretching the truth!

Oh yeah....checked one more item off the list.....ordered the cake! (Check! Check!!)

Tracy: so glad you had all done with most of the things of Ansley's Bday party....... I have to see that store you speak about.... Really I learn so many things here.....I am sure Taylor's flower arrange will be great....

Lindsay: How was the movie??? We almost got there this afternoon, but since most of schools are in holidays this 2 weeks and today was first day, movies were crowded.....That summer camp for Mr. T sounds great.... And special time with D is alway nice, I try to have time with S but now that he is starting that morphological phase he prefer to spend his time alone which I try to avoid as much as possible, my father used to say teenagers have to be supervised all the time.....

Liz: that 3 miles jog sounds great! so your DH is a professional actor by now..... Glad the you have nice weather.....

Speaking of weather we had a glorious day yesterday, all sunny and bright, we couldn't believe it, I had 12 kids over, first I took them to that laser shot at the mall, then we came home for the treasure hunt which was a success even some of my kind neighbors help me with the clues and the dare activities, like making them dance, or they had to recite a poem to my almost teenager neighbor (she is 24, but looks like 19), they had a great time, and the important thing is S was all amazed and happy, I got them fake mustaches and we went wear them even my DH to the mall, then I had some other disguise implements, they were thrill.... We gave S presents like surprise, one in the morning, one later when we came back from the mall and huge one before getting to bed...... Last guest/parents went home around midnight, I cleaned all up (I can't sleep thinking of the dirty dishes in my sink).... today I am so tire......
Well that is all for now,
Happy Father's day tomorrow for all of you that have the blessing to have him by your side.

Lorena

Tracy- You go momma! We also got the cake ordered 'round these parts.

Stacy- Gotta love a water baby! Micah loves up anything with water. Bath time could easy exceed 45 minutes if we let it!

Ya know, I just expect full lung capacity and am continually forgetting that it's just not there.

Lorena- Glad the party was a success! I hear you on the dishes in the sink. I swear I can feel them!

Lauren: Glad you had a great siesta, I miss those pregnant naps, besides you had a great excuse. Did you know if baby is boy or girl, or you are trying to keep it secret and know when baby arrives? Or did I missed something...... So now you feel how I feel when I look all those gorgeous things in Amazon, and they can't ship them here....

Stacy: It is ridiculous and outrageous how expensive kids shoes are, and they just use them like 3 or 6 months top..... Glad you found that sand table, I love Target.... and so glad you are enjoying your summer in the pool.....

Katie: That boat day sounds great.....

Jessica: how are you doing???

L.

Hey Chicas!!! Busy ladies lately around here. Thought I'd be almost caught up and wham...Chatty Cathys again lol

Lauren...thanks for the preggo and fab comment. feeling more blah than fab lately lol. I'll ditto Tracys comment....too funny with the seriosly pregnant...Helllooo!!!! Go rest! xoox

Tracy...sounding like its all coming together...hope she loves it.

I'm shot...time for beddy buy for me!!! Sad on a Saturday night I'm so shot. Went on my millionth Home Depot trip today then to my SIL's house for a bbq to meet her new in-laws which I was actually dreading cause she lives in Jersey...her yard is kinda by the woods....and me and woods/grass/any animals/bugs dont mix well lol Not really an outdooorsy kinda girl and they soooo are all about the camping and stuff.
Actually we all had a really nice time but.

Hope everyone is doing well and all the Share daddys out there have the best daddys day tomorrow!!!!

Lorena~ Glad that the party went well!! That sounds like a fun idea for Ansley's party when she's a bit older. Yes, yes....you would love Hobby Lobby!!

Oooo....you girls would die if you saw my sink right now. Heck, you'd die if you saw my whole house right now. My sister said it looks like someone broke in a ransacked the place and I haven't noticed. Teehee......she might be right!

I saw a sign today (on Pinterest of course) that said, "You know you're old if happy hour is nap time!" Seriously....I fall into the "old" category!!!! I so need to find me a sign like that!

I'm laughing so hard right now at the thought of you freaking out in your sister's yard!!!!! Such a city girl!!

Get yourself some rest!

Well Tracy I would help you with the dishes, it is a nightmare for me, dirty dishes in the sink.....I laughed about the sign, the other night my sister confused my cel number with her teenager daughter, and text me "You better come back home early tonight missy..." I laughed I was in my PJ in my bed, already at 9 pm...

Jessica: you should see the insects here..... and the wild in US is nothing to compare to the jungle here..... but I also prefer the city...

L.

No no Lorena...lol...I'm good over here. I do not do bugs or really nature The sadder part of the day was I was exhausted on the way home with a major headache.....out in the fresh air way to long.

Happy Fathers Day to all the daddys out there!!! Hope they are getting spoiled xoxo

We're off to Keiths cousins house for another bbq. Shes not in the country but

Beware of some applications on FB...... I was looking on the "suggested friends" and I saw a person I totally dislike, and we shared over 20 friends, I was curious and did click on those common friends, to see who we have in common, 2 min later I received a "confirmation " of her as a friend........ugh! like as if I had asked her to be my friend....... horrible! this things make me want to cancel my account, and I just hate when people tag my pic of my kids.... How I took those pic off????

Happy Father's Day! I hope you enjoy with your dads and your DHs...

Jessica: Happy day with your family.....

Stacy - Glad that you were able to find some shoes for Elim. I know, the prices make us cringe. Good that you found some a bit on sale.

Lorena - That's so neat that you got some neighbors to help out with the treasure hunt:) You're so good for staying up to do the dishes. Better to wake up to a clean kitchen.

Jess - Glad the BBQ went alright. I'm not much of a woodsy person (with all the bugs) either. How far away is Jersey from where you live?

Lauren - Yes, your lungs are being squished:) Rest momma:)
Yup, I got a call, but I declined the interview. I'll save the rest for a blog entry.

Katie - Out on the boat sounds like a good way to spend the day/summer:)

Tracy - Madagascar 3 was really cute! I had a GREAT time with all of the French and I was laughing a lot with La Capitaine DuBois. She's hysterical! I'll have to find a poster of her for my classroom in the future. Mr. T did very well and got up just a few times. I had to remind myself that here, it was okay if he got up, it was okay if he was loud.

Happy Father's Day to everyone!

Okay you know you have been away from Share too long when you miss the news of Lauren being pregnant!!! Holy cow how did I miss this??? Congrats girl!!! Gotta go figure out how far you are now... Lol!!! I am a horrible friend to my non-facebooking peeps!!!

I guess I will head over to the pregnant and fab section... Tracy you sound like one busy momma these days!

Everyone have a fantabulous father's day!! Love you girls!!!

Augh, I've been so busy lately. Haven't had time to post in forever. Well I have to reschedule T's allergy testing, just found out that N has family picnic day at preschool at the same time as T's allergy testing so I'm rescheduling.

Lauren, I giggled a little at your preggo comment. Can't believe you are already so pregnant. I feel like I just found out!

Jess, how far along are you - how many weeks? So glad you ended up having a fun bbq.

OK, I need to take a nap. Going to a bbq with my in-laws later today inclding the SIL so I need to be on my best, most rested behavior.

Hope all the Share Daddy's are having a great fathers day!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO OUR SHARE MEN!!

My heart is with those of you who celebrate with kiddos in your heart and not your arms.

Aimee~ Yes, you have been missing for a while! She's getting super close to introducing this little one to the world!! We're glad to have you back though!!

Laura~ I like your napping idea, and yes...you must be at your best for a cookout with inlaws!

Ansley and her dad are off having a great time today. Who knows where they ended up because the list of possibilities continued to grow!! I know that they're going to enjoy a BBQ with friends later this afternoon so...

My plans include homework.......baby steps! Maybe I'll catch a nap in the afternoon hours too. We'll see how the day goes.

Jessica- Maybe I should share my centipede story with you.

Laura- Good luck with the SIL, and can I say I laughed out loud at your comment on my blog. You funny honey, I live on a rock.. no a pebble- we have one of everything.. one hospital... one Costco...

Lorena- Ugh, facebook drama... no fun! I cringe to think the bugs in the jungle!

Tracy- Enjoying your nap? I'm assuming you prioritized it.

Lindsay- We might just have to check out the movie. Gonna stalk your blog.

Aimee- You've been missed and seriously momma, I'm still in shock!! That'll be two twin expectin' mommas on Share now! (Liam's Mommy also expecting twins!)

Everyone napping, sans moi, I wish I was a better napper. I'm an awesome vegger... but junky napper. We're going to the outdoor part of the Maui Film Festival tonight... love watching movies under the stars. Should be a good relaxing time.

Lauren~ Of course, I prioritized the napping and homework schedule!! I'd have it no other way!

Now is when that "priority" bites me in the butt because Ansley is home and I still haven't finished my homework. Oops!!

Do ya'll ever do things that drive you crazy!? I know that sounds crazy, but seriously....I do things that absolutely drive me insane, but yet, I'm too lazy to fix it. What is wrong with me??

Hey Ladies!
How did I possibly miss every post in the cafe so far?!? I know I've read some but guessing I wasn't logged in.

Things here have been crazy but I'm looking forward to life slowing down over the summer. (and finally getting more SYS time!)
Seems like every time I turn around something breaks in our house. Been limping our computer along for a while, had to get a new a/c system last week, and now our drier is broken! I think I'm going to scream!

Jackie~ I'm pretty sure you need to pack and bag and come stay with me for a while until Brian gets all of that broken stuff fixed!! Mini-vacay!!! It's great to see you here though...I've missed you!!!

Okay---I feel like I might explode! I realized this morning that next week is our last classes for the summer semester. Great huh?? Yeah---except for the fact that I have to finish ALL assignments this week before Sunday because of Ansley's birthday party and birthday next week!!!

I see no naps in my future......

Jackie- Howdy momma! Doesn't it just always seem if it's not one thing it's another?!

Tracy- I'm right there with you... this is also I feel my last week to get everything done before there's no more time! I'm actually glad it's still Monday!

Yes, that's right. I'm glad it's still Monday! There is too much to get done this week for it to go by quickly!

Lauren~ Maybe it's because we "check out" of life for part of next week......

"I can't think about that today, I'll think about that tomorrow....tomorrow is another day." (Insert MAJOR accent!!)

Tomorrow is going to be a NO NAP day Gotta get things done and done well. Ugh......I'm gonna miss that nap!

Anyone watching "The Bachelorette"? I liked this dude (Ryan) when he first got there....you know cheering for my GA boy, but he's shown his true colors and I'm so happy for her decision!!! (Sorry if I just ruined it for those of you who TiVo! )

I need a dog sitter while we're on vacation. Anyone want to keep my sweet boy for the week?? The friend who kept him last summer can't because her house is listed with a realtor and she doesn't want to run the risk of having to show the house and it not being spotless. (Yeah--polar opposite of me! )

Tracy- Totally, we're checking out and checking in to the Hyatt! Thank you baby girl!

Seriously, why at 2:30 in the morning did the dog decide to come in an puke on the floor right next to me. Run of the whole house... has to puke on the floor riiiiiiight next to me. I'm evicted out of my own room to the living room couch because while the smell has been replaced by Resolve and cleaning supplies... it's still gross!

Lauren~ Ugh.....I feel your pain. That's the time that Tibbles like to get sick too. Really??? All day and nothing until 2 a.m.??

Okay---so slept later than I meant to. Not all together bad because hey--I must have needed the rest. Anyway, nothing is getting done. I have been reading a book that I have to complete for a presentation for next week so that's good, but....you know how that feels.

Also got news from another professor that he's good with my "double dipping" and using resources from my research to complete his assignment! Yes!!!!!!

Ansley has cheer camp this afternoon so hopefully I can get some things accomplished while there are no interruptions.

Donna??? Where are you???????

Donna is probably still hungover from her birthday!

Lauren-Double ick! I can't clean up that stuff without gagging and puking myself! I feel your pain...

Tracy-Yay for the good news!!! Hoping you can get things accomplished while Ansley is at camp! A nap sounds sooooo good right about now! Too bad I still have 4.5 hours of work!

Okay---so Ansley's at cheer camp and I'm on here again....

Go ahead and mark me down for EPIC FAIL!
