I can not believe that it is only Wednesday! Oh my goodness! It has been a very long week, and we are only half way to the weekend. Well, I guess technically today is pretty much over, so, a little less than half way to the weekend. It's all good, though! I am really looking forward to this weekend. General conference is this Saturday and Sunday, and I am really looking forward to getting a refresher from the general authorities and feeling the spirit and eating cinnamon rolls! I am so thankful for this opportunity, and I'm thankful I don't have to leave the comfort of my home. Well, the Pease's home this time.
I think the reason this week has seemed so long is because Scott had a long weekend last week, and its always hard to recover from those. And, last week was pretty crappy, too. I was supposed to get my wisdom teeth pulled. To make a long story in which I would get really upset and probably type something that didn't really make since, things didn't work out... I mean, not that I really wanted to get my wisdom teeth pulled, I just really need them pulled, and I was very excited to get relief and to take a little break. I didn't get either. Scott's parents came, though. That was fun. And, I guess it was better to not be completely out of it while they were here. We didn't do anything really exciting, we just hung out and took it easy.
So, Monday we didn't really do anything, but it was still a very long day. Then Tuesday we went to get our passport photos taken, which made it really sink in that, yeah, we are for reals moving to Italy. Then, today we went and applied for the passports. According to the guy, who was just a little strange, we should get those in mid-October sometime, and then we will have to sit on our booties till probably December sometime when we can start applying for our Italian visas. Sheesh! There is a lot of stuff you have to do to move overseas! And people wonder why I'm not all giddy about going... Jeez.
Tomorrow we have a doctors appointment for Phineas. It seems like this little boy is always sick! I guess that's just part of growing up, but it is very un-fun. Last night he was so stuffed up that he wouldn't eat and wouldn't fall asleep. It was miserable, for all of us. Today has been the same way. Just long. And I have wiped his little button nose so many times! My goodness! He is such a drama king, too. You wipe his nose and it's like the end of the world. Poor silly boy. I hope the doctor will be able to do something for him other than tell me to keep up what I am already trying to do, because it isn't working so well. Tomorrow is also payday! Yay! However, payday would be so much better if all the money didn't magically disappear. Ugh
Then, Friday is Friday. Hopefully it'll be a good one...
On a totally unrelated note, I can't believe that it is almost October! What is up with that? I don't want it to be October :( Time is going by way to quickly. In less than two months, my baby boy will be one! I'm not ready for that! I still don't know what I'm going to do for his party, or what I'm going to get him... I know it shouldn't be so difficult, but I'm having a really hard time with it all.
I am, however, very excited for Phineas' first Halloween! Isn't it weird that it's his first Halloween, but his second Thanksgiving and Christmas? It is to me... And, I'm even more excited for Thanksgiving and Christmas! I can't wait! I love the holiday season. It always makes me feel so happy. And, this year will be our first holiday season alone as a family. I can't wait to get all the decorations on sale in January! WOOH! I just wish there was a way for it to be the holidays without Phineas turning one... My baby boy is getting too big!
So, I just read over this and it is very... Well, it doesn't really make sense... What can I say? I'm a fan of rambling, and since I am no longer in high school, and this isn't being turned in for a grade, I figure it doesn't matter... sorry!

Stress
Stress. I feel like all of a sudden I am made of stress. I'm told that's life, but I don't like the way it makes me feel. My goodness. I am slowly losing my mind. If you see me hunched in a corner, rocking in a crazy-like manner, just smile and walk away. I won't drag you down with me. Lol! I need to get a mu-mu and a couple of cats. Then, I'll be set!
This time around, I'm not even going to try to remember what we have been up to everyday since the last day I wrote. It would just drive me closer to my corner. But, I will recall all the days that stick out. And, forgive me if they aren't in order. Again, corner.
Well, we've hung out with the Pease's a lot... Lol! We played the newlywed game, which I swear is meant to cause marital problems. Another night, we played cranium, with play dough! And then, just last night we had a movie night, after eating dinner at Jimmy Johns and wondering around Target. We watched Prince of Persia, which might have been a pretty good movie, if I had been paying attention, and Dear John, which made me cry. Kim made us some delicious red velvet cupcakes. Thanks to her, I am now officially human, since I had never had red velvet, or carrot cake before meeting Kim. Both are great! But seriously, what wouldn't be good covered in cream cheese frosting? Yum! I also attempted to recreate Kim's awesome salsa, which made me feel awkwardly like Sandra Lee, seeing as it was very semi-homemade... Lol! Too bad it was way better than anything Sandra Lee would make because one, it wasn't drowning in alcohol, and two, it was a recipe given to me by Kim, who is awesome, not psycho like Sandra Lee. Anyways, like usual, we ate. We like to eat. It tastes good.
Speaking of good tasting food, I tried my hand at deep dish pizza this last week. It turned out pretty good, except that the crust was thick enough to replace the Hoover Dam. Now I know for next time that I need to use less dough... We also got a blender!!! WOOHOO! Oh man, I was so excited! When I ordered it off amazon, (my favorite site in the world) I had to text everyone to let them know that I would soon be the proud owner of a crush master! And by everyone, I mean Scott and Kim... Lol... I love getting stuff in the mail! Its like waiting for Christmas morning and I get all giddy. Its pretty sweet. However, we have yet to try out our new toy.... I think I might go do that now...
Its been great to vent! Thank you blog, for accepting all my musings :)

labor day
Last week was pretty sweet. Scott worked for all of three days, and then we had an amazing 5 day weekend. It was hard to send him back to work today, but, that's life for ya.
Our long weekend started a day earlier than everyone else's because Scott got his standby day off Thursday. It was pretty sweet. We went to his works BBQ, which really wasn't a BBQ at all. It was Albertsons fried chicken, and some sides that everyone else brought. I made snickerdoodles, and, like always, they were a hit :) Yum. There was also some store bought french bread that was pretty delish. That was about all I ate, but it was still pretty fun. All anyone talked to us about was moving to Italy. Yeah, I get it, its supposed to be exciting. But, I am not as excited as I should be. Not yet, any ways. I'm sure I'll get to that point... You know, after we get there and have settled down... Ha. It'll be great.
On Thursday we also we on a clothing search for Phineas. It's getting cold, and he need a winter jacket, and cold weather clothes. We didn't find a jacket, but we did get him two pairs of jeans, and a few shirts. We have a long way to go... Baby steps... We aren't made of money, you know. Lol!
We ended the night with Silvermine Subs (Yum! But not as yum and Jimmy Johns. Or snickerdoodles...) and then hung out here, and played a game, Guestures, And ate delicious salsa that Kim made for us.
Friday we had a lazy day, then went over to the Pease's for some delicious hot wings and fries. Good stuff! Then we played Apples to Apples, I believe... As always, we were there super late, and had an awesome time!
Saturday, us and the Pease's had an early dinner at Arbys, and then wondered around Target for two hours! I loved every minute of it. Its not very often that Scott will just walk around a store with no actual purpose for any amount of time. After we were done there, we headed back here and snacked on left overs and watched a pretty cute movie, When in Rome. I know what you're thinking... These people eat a ton! And, its true... But, I'm totally ok with that! Lol
Sunday, we went to the Pease's for a delicious pot roast that Kim made for us, and I made the most beautiful loafs of bread ever. Then we just hung out and relaxed. It was pretty sweet.
Monday was Labor day, and we had steak! Yay! We also made baked beans, and Kim made her awesome broccoli salad, and introduced us to the glory of frog eye salad! I'm going to need that recipe. I've been craving that salad all day! Anywho, we BBQ'd and ate and then had SMORES! Oh my goodness, I love smores! And Kim is a total pyro. It was hilarious. Then, we watched the epic Boise State vs. Virgina Tech game, and of course, Boise won! Then, it was time to end the night, because real life would be starting again onTuesday... Such a bummer.

Playing Catch Up
So, it was recently brought to my attention that I have been neglecting my blog. So, here you go Kim, as you are most likely the only person in the world who reads this. Thank you for loving me so much! And, thank you for thinking that I have an exciting life. Because I don't... LOL
Now to catch up. I don't even know where to start. Not because we have an exciting life, but because I have a horrible memory, and I can't remember what I did last night, let alone two weeks ago. But, I will do the best I can.
To start off, Phineas now has a tooth. Yes, my baby boy has a chomper. Just one, on the bottom left side, and it hasn't come up all the way, but that doesn't change the fact that it still hurts to get bitten. Of course now that he has a pearly white, that seems to be his favorite thing to do. He also enjoys cruising, (you know, using the couch and other various objects to pull himself up and inch around the living room) smooshing his face against things, taking baths, playing with the dog toys, and just being too darn cute. We sure love him :)
Scott has been enjoying work and taking good care of me. He got a 5 on his APR and spent the last week on standby. Luckily, not much goes down in the summer time, so, all he really had to do was carry around an extra phone. But standby this week got him a 5 day weekend coming up! Yay!
I have been being a mom and a wife. Its pretty great. I love every minute of it! Even the poopy ones. Hehe! My biggest challenge this past two weeks has been cooking. I made the mistake of thinking I only had two eggs left, so I bought two dozen more this last shopping trip only to come home to 17 left in the fridge. I have never eaten so many eggs in my life! Its been an experience, and we are now down to a dozen plus 2, or 14... Other than that, not much has been going on at home during the day. Oh, and yes, I am no longer the Primary chorister. It's a little bittersweet, so I guess its a good thing I'm a fan of the darker chocolate. :)
Our weekends have been epic! How could they not be with our BFFs, the Peases. Its been great to play our games and stay up till 1:30 eating lots of delicious food and of course, keeping the trophy, because we are that awesome. LOL We won newly weds, and cranium, and had a great time, too! One day, they might get it back, but I just don't know. We're pretty awesome. I will miss them :( A lot :(
Which reminds me... WE GOT ORDERS TO AVIANO ITALY! Am I excited? I'm not quite sure yet. I mean its Italy, whats not to be excited about? Well there's the fact that its a foreign country. I don't know how anything works! And there's the fact that we just got here 6 months ago, and I'm not really looking forward to redoing that whole process. Moving is a pain in the butt. And what about our puppies? And my plants? I'm pretty attached to both. I don't know. I'm very stressed. But there is a little bit of excitement there, and I'm sure it will start to come more as things begin to happen. Most of all, I will miss Kim. She really is the best friend I have had in my whole married life. Its depressing to just get settled into a place, and make great friends, only to get shipped out a year later. But, that's the air force for you. Like I said, I'm not quite sure yet. We'll see...
Anywho. I think I did a pretty good job at catching up. I will try not to be a slacker in the future.

What a week!
Let me just start off saying, holy smokes! This was a week!
Monday: My little boy turned 9 months old! Can you believe that?!? I can't... That means that in 3 short months I'll have a one year old, and I don't think I'm ready for that one! Its breaking my heart? I miss my sweet little munchkin man. Now he's a big boy that would rather be standing up, or all over the floor than snuggling his mommy or daddy. I guess its inevitable.... Sad. but hey, I guess that means its time for number two! Hehe... We'll see.
Tuesday: Today was the start of week of no sleep. Phineas has been teething with a vengeance! The poor baby has had a fever on and off, and some not so pleasant diapers. I thought Tuesday was bad, but little did I know it would get much worse. Then, on top of that, Tuesday night, I could not go to sleep for the life of me. It was miserable. I had to get out of bed and come downstairs. I watched Australia, and read my cook books for meal ideas, till about three in the morning. Yikes.
Wednesday: Wednesday was pretty good... That's all I can remember... Lol
Thursday: Today is when things took a turn for the worse. My poor baby. On top of teething, I think he might have caught a tummy bug, and he was just miserable. As a mother, it is the hardest thing in the world to watch your child suffer and not be able to do anything for him. It breaks my heart :( And it gets really hard, too Oh, and I made some epic snickerdoodles. 'Nuff said.
Friday: Oh man, today was great! Well, besides poor Phineas. Do I brush this all off as teething, or is it a tummy bug? It's so hard! All the symptoms are so similar... Anyways, today was payday! Yay! To celebrate, we went out to dinner with Kim and Ryan and got some delicious mexican. Then, we ran to Sams Club for some wipes and cheese rolls. Oh man, those were good. After our Sams run, we headed back to our house for a wild game of Dirty Minds. Lol. Since this weekend was Ryans birthday, Scott and I decided to let them win back the trophy. I know, we're so awesome! After a few rounds of that, we put in Blades of Glory, and at around 11:30, we ordered a pizza and some cheese sticks. I know, you're thinking, "fatties" and you'd be right. Lol! In our defense, we had an early dinner, and a late night. Great fun.
Saturday: Today was so productive! We steam cleaned our carpet, set up Phineas' corner, ran all our errands, and stole some gravel to re-pot a few of my plants as our house has been invaded by fungal flies. Yuck. We did the carpet first thing, and then left to run our errands while the carpet was drying. We spent most of our afternoon at Nissan getting our oil changed and our tires rotated. Then we ran to Murdoch's to get Phineas some bum medicine. No, not cool whip :) Then, to Sonic for a little snack, then to a natural food store, just for fun, and then to Lowes, for some zip ties and light bulbs. We came home and re-set up our house, and finally relaxed and watched our movie.
Sunday: Phineas woke up with a fever of 101.7, so, needless to say, we stayed home from church. I whipped out my list of pirmary subs and not one of them answered their phone. I was furious. Lucky for me, I have the most wonderful husband in the world, and he called the 1st counselor, since she was the one who was so adamant about calling a sub, not the primary president... Yeah, right, because that worked out so well. It is so frustrating. I just don't feel right for this calling at this time in my life, and its really difficult for me to keep trying, when it seems that no one is willing to help me out. I think its pretty obvious that I have no idea what I'm doing. Ugh. So, I spent my day stressing about making someone else stress about a calling that stresses me like none other, on top of stressing about my poor sick baby. I even took my blood pressure, just to see... 137/76. Ugh ugh ugh. But, tonight made it all better. We went over to the Pease's for fondue! Oh my goodness gracious. I will be purchasing a fondue set in the near future. I can't believe I've lasted this long without fondue in my life! It was amazing! We also watched the finale of The Next Food Network Star, to see Aarti win. i was rooting for Tom, but I was just glad it wasn't Herb, because he was annoying. We also played some Uno Attack, which was hilarious to Phineas for some reason. I think it was because he was exhausted. Lol! Whatever the reason, it was stinking cute! After we stuffed our faces, and again let Kim and Ryan keep the trophy, we headed home where we finished laundry, and wrote this blog... Now, it's 12:42 in the PM, and I think I'll sign off for the night. Until next week!

sunday sunday
So, I've officially decided that I'm to lazy to write everyday, and will try to write once a week.
Friday: TOTALLY AWESOME. Phineas slept in till 11 so I was able to read. Scott got off of work at 1sh, and we had our grocery shopping done by 2:30. Oh, and while we were grocery shopping, Scott lost his Abigail ring in the coupon slot! It was hilarious! We always use the self check out because its easier, and you don't have to tip the bagger. We also used to use our reusable bags, but the self check out freaks, because the weight is wrong for all the items. Sheesh. Well, we had a coupon for dog food, and the slot didn't recognize that we had already dropped it in. So, Scott stuck his hand down in there to try to, well, I'm not exactly sure what he was trying to accomplish... His ring got caught, and he while he was trying to wiggle his hand out, his ring slipped right off of his scrawny woman fingers. Of course, instead of asking the worker to help him get it out, he went into freak out mode. "Well, that ring is gone. I'll never get that ring back. This is so stupid" and so on... It was great. In the end, the lady opened up the thing, and we all went home happy.
After our grocery shopping adventures, Scott and Phineas took a nap while I messed around on my phone After the nap, and a little bit of take it easy time, we met Kim and Ry an (lol) at the bowling ally for some delicious food, and a few friendly competitive frames of bowling.
After bowling, we went to Target to look for a game and also just to waste some time. We ended up getting a classic, Apples to Apples. When we were finished at Target, we made our way to the Peases and were there till 1 am. Whew! It was a great night!
Saturday: Scott was grumpy... So I was grumpy too :) Eventually we got over it, and bought the dogs some rawhide, and to price fish tank stuff. Lets just say, that's not happening for a while...
Sunday: Sunday is Sunday, what more can I say? I was hard to get up and motivated, but we made it. For breakfast, Scott made us all some roller coaster pancakes (yum) and we watched HGTV. That channel is dangerous! I now want a house, preferably in the Caribbean.
Church went really well today. I was pleasantly surprised. Junior primary didn't go as smoothly as I would have like it to, but Senior primary was amazing! I let the kids conduct! Who would have thought that it would have be such a hit! I was very happy.
We came home and had a lovely crock pot dinner. Oh how I love my crock pot! Then it was time for The Next Food Network Star! Oh how I love my Next Food Network Star! FINALLY Aria was voted off! Perfect end to my Sunday. That, and my yummy cookie bars, which I'm about to go eat. Yay!
Friday: TOTALLY AWESOME. Phineas slept in till 11 so I was able to read. Scott got off of work at 1sh, and we had our grocery shopping done by 2:30. Oh, and while we were grocery shopping, Scott lost his Abigail ring in the coupon slot! It was hilarious! We always use the self check out because its easier, and you don't have to tip the bagger. We also used to use our reusable bags, but the self check out freaks, because the weight is wrong for all the items. Sheesh. Well, we had a coupon for dog food, and the slot didn't recognize that we had already dropped it in. So, Scott stuck his hand down in there to try to, well, I'm not exactly sure what he was trying to accomplish... His ring got caught, and he while he was trying to wiggle his hand out, his ring slipped right off of his scrawny woman fingers. Of course, instead of asking the worker to help him get it out, he went into freak out mode. "Well, that ring is gone. I'll never get that ring back. This is so stupid" and so on... It was great.

day three
Well, today was monumentally better than yesterday was, and that was due to the DOUGHNUTS! But more on that later...
Our morning was much different that most days. Scott went to work, as usual. I went back to sleep as usual. Phineas stayed asleep as usual. However, Phineas decided to wake up a half an hour later, and then not go back to sleep. It was a little rough to get going, but we survived. We then came downstairs to our normal routine up until Scott came home for lunch. Well, there was nothing exciting about lunch, except for the french fries, and it was actually a little rough because Phineas was exhausted by then. Of course he didn't want to take a nap, it's not in his nature. Yikes. Phineas finally zonked out right before Scott left and slept for maybe 40 minutes before, heaven forbid, I tried to lay him down so I could go potty. That was the end of that. Oh well. I should have seen it coming. It's only happened every other time I've tried. But that's ok! I love to cuddle :)
So, after Phineas and I established that there would be no more napping, we headed in to the kitchen. Alright. This is going to sound so weird, but last night I had a dream. To make a long story short, a giant doughnut came out of a lake and talked to me. Needless to say, I woke up a little disturbed and craving doughnuts. So, I made some doughnuts! And was it an experience! I think I dirtied every dish I owned. But oh my goodness, was it so worth it! Delicious! Phineas was a great helper. He sat in his high chair and ate nilla waffers and a cheese stick. He is such a cutie. Then, we had doughnuts for dinner. I had leftover salad from the last night before, so it wasn't too bad... But, not Scott. All doughnuts for him. He's feeling it now...
Now, we're lounging in the living room watching Americas Got Talent, trying to decide what to do this weekend. Here in a little while. I'll cut Scotts hair, and then we'll go to bed!
