Thanks Jill.

I just now noticed that most of my pictures are taken from the vantage point of the couch, LOL. That is cracking me up!
I love that Ashley says "ewww" too! Must be a girl thing! Can you imagine all the trouble they could cause together?
Last night Isabella was in our bedroom and Adrian was in the master bathroom. I figured he had an eye on her. She came in to me going "ow" and holding her wrist. It was dark, and I touched her head and it felt weird. I turned on the light, and she was COVERED, COVERED in chocolate. Haha. He had brought home some candy for the kids earlier and she was eating her M&Ms, apparently unsupervised.
She had just had her bath, so I wiped her down with wipes and scrubbed her hair. Then Adrian poked his head out of the bedroom and said, "You need to come look at this."
Hahahahahaha.
The bathroom door was completely smeared with chocolate, there were chocolate streaks and drops all over the floor near the door and crushed M&Ms in the carpet.
All I could do was laugh.
I am pretty good at getting stuff out of carpet (windex - or ammonia - and hydrogen peroxide will take pretty much anything out of carpet, just make sure it's colorfast), so I was able to clean it all out pretty quickly and of course cleaning the door was no big deal, but I was amazed at how much havoc she had created in such a short period of time, LOL.
I wish I had taken a before picture, but I didn't want to let it sit!
I can't believe Ashley is already two!! The time is just flying! Did she have a party?
Thanks for the well wishes!
Tova: Thanks!
Some of my girlfriends got together in San Francisco and I wasn't able to go with them. They happened upon that statue and they said it made them think of me, LOL, so they snapped a pic for me.
I think she is talking way earlier than the boys. Xavier talked by a year or so but not as much. Orian grunted for the first two years of his life. Haha. I think it might be a girl thing!
Thanks for the comment about the entertainment center. It was really hard to find something that fit our criteria. So many things now have huge glass panels. This has glass but I think it's less likely to be broken. The sales guy said it was tempered glass although I don't know if I believe that.
We were looking at some others at a different store and one in particular had huge plates of glass. I asked the sales lady about their potential for being broken, and she said, "Oh, don't worry. We offer warranty plans that would completely cover the cost of replacing the glass if it gets broken"!!!
LOL, I don't care about the glass, I care about little fingers! Got a warranty plan for that?
I don't think she had any kids!
We are really enjoying our TV. Adrian got it as a "welcome home" gift to himself when he got back from Iraq, and honestly, we use it every single day, so it's worth it. I like the look of it and how light it is. It also has a swivel which is nice.
The people who lived in this house before us had a mounted TV (can tell by the stuff in the wall, LOL) but on the wall opposite of where the cable comes out. Weird. I wonder how they managed that?
