Broken

What I am learning about being a parent is first do not keep glass in reach of children. As soon as Bridger could touch our pictures on our table he loves to play with them. I tryed to keep him away but you eye goes off him for 2 seconds and he has thrown one to the floor and broke the picture frame. That I wasn't so up-set about. but today he did something I was truely up-set about. I found a great floor lamp for really cheap on KSL and I bought it. It was nice because it was heavy which made it very sturdy and it was a glass top with a 3 way light. I did not take into consideration that our other floor lamp that broke was plastic and very old (my sister gave it to us for our wedding, So that makes it 6 years old and more well traveled then a lot of people I know).  Anyways this lamp broke from old age and I'm sure bridger always unplugging it and pushing it over didn't help. So when I got this very heavy lamp I thought no way could bridger push this over. well everything was great for the first couple of months he didn't unplug it or try to knock it over. Until the past week he started to unplug it, but still no pushing. Has i'm doing my hair in the bathroom I hear something fall and glass breaking. I thought to myself, I don't have any glass in reach of bridger a picture must have fallen off the wall. I went to check it out and Bridger pushed the lamp over. It scared him so bad he just stared at it for a second then burst into tears. Maybe he's learned his lesson, so maybe just maybe my nexted floor lamp won't get broken. I definitly won't be buying a glass top one again.

My beautiful glass top floor lamp before Bridger thought it was a toy.

Our Bathroom Remodel

There was vinyl around the tup but it started coming off so are opptions were to caulk it back on or take it off and replace it. It was so ugly I really did not like the idea of putting it back on. So we decided to tile the shower area. 



Ugly pink wall paper that we had to remove on every inch of the walls. I didn't think about taking before and after pictures until most of the wall paper was gone.




After sanding the walls. It's to bad we didn't get a picture of Jeff after this. His hair, eye lashes, eyebrows, and clothes were all white.


The vanity area after the remodel. I do not have before pictures. All we did in this area is paint and take off ugly pink wallpaper. 


After the remodel of the bathroom. Jeff tiled the shower and painted. We also removed ugly pink wall paper. 
I had no idea that Jeff was able to do tile this well. I didn't know that he could paint so well until we did Bridger's bedroom. This is very exsiteing to me because now I can put him to work more often. LOL! I think Jeff might not like that idea.

Inconsistent Make-Up.

I'm having a huge problem with my base. I've been using the same base since high school and I have never had a problem. I found the color that was perfect "Buff Beige"and the brand that was perfect CG Smoothers. When I went to the store awhile back they were out of the stuff I usually get so I got some stuff that was same brand, same color (CG Continuous Wear). They were in the same bottle, same brand, same color. So I figured it's all the same but maybe the texture would be different. I was so wrong it made me look like a ghost. It was 3 shades lighter then what I normally wear. Well same thing happened again last week they were out of my normal base so I new better then to get Continuous Wear again. I saw TRUblend and it was on sale and I had heard good things about it from my sister. So I got it (same brand, same color) thinking the same thing that I thought about the other base. Again I was wrong. I should have learned my leason from before but this time the color was 3 shades darker. I left it on because I wasn't really in the mood to wash my face and start all over. When my hubby came home he noticed the difference and said my face looked grey. I really like cover girl but how can you say they are all the same color when they are not. So the color wheels they have to match your skin with is probally inaccurate too. I'm very disappointed and I hate wasting money on make-up because it's so expencive.

Why I Haven't Been Blogging: I'm an Addict to Video Games.


Every now and then I get in the mood to play video games and I just happen to find one I really enjoy. It's called Eternal Sonata. I don't like many games but I'm a huge fan of role playing game, ones with a story line, for example Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, and Fable. I'm also a huge fan of online role playing games like World of Warcraft but I've decided not to play that type of game anymore because I become addicted to them and I'm afraid that addiction will resort into me neglecting Bridger. My addiction to Eternal Sonata is nowhere near the addiction I had to World of Warcraft so Bridger actually gets fed. Why I'm I not playing right now??? Plan and simple Jeff is playing a game right now and so if I can't play at least I can talk about it. Another example on how I'm only kind of addicted. I actually gave up the Xbox so Jeff could play. Anyways here are some screen shots from the games I love.


Eternal Sonata





Kingdom Hearts 2





Final Fantasy 12



Fable 2



These are my two favorite charaters of all time.

A Hair Cut

I've been thinking of getting my hair cut like this for about 2 years and I have never gotten the courage. So let me ask all of you for opinion on if I should cut it like this? Be honest! and please let me know your opinion so I can either get my hair cut like this or get over wanting to.

My Playlist

I added a playlist on my blog with the song that relate to my life. 
When your going threw your life some songs stick with you forever. The reason why some songs stick with me is because they describe my emotions at that time. If you know me very very well, you will be able to tell what each song means to me and how it fits into my life. I also enjoyed putting this together because it made me feel all thoughs old emotions again. Enjoy!

When Your Baby Becomes a Child.


This is a list of thing that  have made me realize that Bridger is no longer a baby but a child.

1. He can lounge in his kid sofa by resting his feet on the arm rest.
2. He says "No Mamma". 
3. He needs be hiding so no one can see him poop.
4. He knows what a cookie is and knows where I hide them.
5. He will not eat is dinner because he acts like he's full but will make an exception for junk food.
6. He thinks farting is funny.
7. Two 3 hour naps a day is not nessisary. One 2 hour nap a day is just fine.
8. He enjoys shocking himself by putting the end of his baby monitor hook-up in his mouth.
9. He thinks jumping on the bed is fun.
10. He can go up and down the stairs.

This is just stuff that reminds me of what little boys do. Bridger will always be my baby but maybe I should stop calling him a baby and start calling him a little boy....?
