I am finding it increasingly hard to blog this last week due to my home being a major hazard zone. I get to spend my days with a middle aged man tinkering around in my kitchen and bathroom drilling, sawing, hammering and creating the biggest cloud of dust ever to descend in my presence. How dare dirt enter my domain!
We have not had a working shower in our house since last Wednesday. No, this does not mean we have embraced 3rd world living, but it does mean we have become BFF with our new neighbors, whom we love and they have graciously let us come in and out of their house to shower and bathe Chloe. We heart you Alison and Shawn!!!! I had a wee bit of a meltdown yesterday. Thank God for super mom. That is what I think of my mom. What would I do without this woman? She listens to my hormonal ramblings and then we can sit on my bed, do our nails and watch our crime shows together, pig out and forget about the chaos that doesn’t seem to be going away in the kitchen. She knows I hate to be babied and just has an innate ability to do all the right things to help without being overburden. I take notes…so much to learn from her. Mom, you will never know the depths of my gratitude…I LOVE YOU!!!!! You are the best mom ever.
We have been told we will have our new tub installed this evening…fingers and toes crossed. What a luxury to have your own tub, one where no bum has ever sat in. I will sacrificially break that badboy in. Right now I have a beastly cast iron, claw foot tub sitting in my hallway. I don’t know why I didn’t think of that sooner. It makes an excellent and timeless decoration and is only just slightly in the way. Somehow the guys didn’t want to carry it all the way down the stairs and out to the garage. What wimps!
Moving on. Ryan’s brother, Dan, came over Saturday night with Guitar Hero 3 and we all rocked till our hearts burst. Good times…GOOD TIMES!!!!! Much better song choices than GH2. Here are the highlights. We do give bonus points for flare, kicks, lip snarls and all around best effort.
This is the one and only shot of myself I will humbly put up seeing as I just got out of the shower so I have nice mom helmet hair ( I chopped my hair off this week..just took the scissors and went for it. Real shots coming later) I have no makeup and my sweats. This is where I have to laugh because this picture is going to be the most viewed on my flickr because nosy moms just have to get a closer look and size themselves up pregnant or not. You know it’s true! Psssstttt….. look at that belly, those thighs….do girls ever stop comparing? Well here I am in all my natural glory ladies drink it in…DRINK IT IN! There is only one man I have to turn on and I bring it to him coming and going….curvy style! Holla!
Here is Dan throwing it down like it is hot.
Awwwww…what is this? Solo time…..give it to us Dan!
Ryan felt like he needed to protect Charlotte from all the devils rock that was coming out of the TV. Her innocent ears.
Ryan’s up. How does a 6′6″ man handle a guitar….LIKE THIS!!!!!!
Oh baby…give me a spray bottle and fan because I am burning up watching all this rock manhood before me. Check out that form.
My dad had a classier approach to playing. He picked the classic rock songs and sat on the couch and played acoustic style. That or he was too lazy to stand.
Look at the concentration on this man. Dan sending rock vibes in the background.
A family that plays together, stays together. Words to live by kiddos!
ok. i cant see the hair very well but momma thinks she likes.
in addition, i really like ryan’s shirt. he’s lookin’ kinda hott (two t’s).
loveeeeeeeee dan’s rock vibe.
and your dad. i still heart him. BIG time.
Looks like a rockin’ good time was had by all.. hey.. I love the huge clock above your mantel.
guitar hero is super fun. of course my 14 year old friend kathryn kicks my rear all over the place. (with her on expert and me on medium) i wonder if ryan could beat the littlest whiting? hmmm….
I double heart your hair! Even the after-shower helmet. Can’t wait to see ‘real’ pictures of it! It’s FABULOUS!! YOU’RE fabulous!
Now I’ve been inducted into the WII hall of fame, I MUST try guitar hero.
You look beautiful!
Hey Kelly! I came across your blog through one of my sisters friends, Holli’s blog and I had to say hello. I forgot you were in Lynchburg. Your blog is hilarious and I love your pictures. Your little girl is precious! It’s so weird not seeing someone for a while then seeing pictures of their little girl. Anyhow, I’m very happy for you and just wanted to say hello. Congrats on #2 coming! Hope to run into you sometime here in the burg!
ahhh!
ya’ll are so fun.
I wish that we could hang out
SOOO FUN!!!!
Oh, and also? You are one hot mamma!
I really like your new cut, but we do need a close up. I’m getting mind cut tomorrow. When my hair starts to look big and 80’s-I know it is time for a cut.
GH is da bomb! We are so crazy about it that husband and I have our very own guitars and we had to buy our little one a toy guitar to keep his paws of our very coveted equipment. Mine has pink skins. And, you’re right GH III has way better songs. You look great pregnant! Can’t wait to see the hair close up!
Now we DEFINITELY need to get a wii.
Pssssttt!
You look HAWT.
Crazy lady, you look great! I wish my hair looked like that out of the shower, mine is bad news.
Haven’t tried Guitar Hero yet, but I think I would quickly become addicted.
Mmkay.
So Brett has an XBOX 360 and Guitar Hero is my new favorite past time.
A few things I feel I need to address this morning…
-The third GH knocks #2 out of the water.
-The Killers song is my favorite to play.
-I love a good opportunity for the whammy bar.
-I feel that I play my best when I’m sitting down.
-I realized how much of a loser I am the other day when I noticed I actually had sore muscles in my left forearm from playing.
Changing topics…
-Rhae at work said that she’s going to meet with you. I’m going to need a cut from the profits for recruitment on that one. She already had a DJ though… friend of the family or some such nonsense.
-The Pats are going to win the Super Bowl and it will be beautiful.
-I have a color question that I will e-mail you soon.
Whew that was alot to get off my chest.
Have an amazing Wednesday
You are hot! How can one family be so photogenic?
What? Fluffy & Chloe did not get a chance to rock out?
Rock it,mama!
If your Pops had donned his glasses, I could see an acoustic Eric Clapton.
And if you still had long hair, you could have totally pulled off a Dee Sneider (sp?) ‘do. But you look hot with any ‘do. pft.
Guitar hero is so much fun! We play that game until the wee hours of the morning… what are we, 14??? And we only have GH2, I cannot imagine the kind of mid-30’s new parent trouble we will get into when we play GH3.
LONG LIVE ROCK & ROLL! *laughing*
Ohmygoodness, that was so funny. Love the pics.
