Piper the Goat Baby

Yeah, Yeah, two posts in less than twenty four hours,  I think this is worth it.

So, I'm just wasting time, messing around, reading about Beyonce (because I needed a good laugh, unfortunately that led to coughing, which led to well, read my last post) and posting links to a Beyonce printable, when I look up to find this:

Piper with a big hunk of chocolate. (She wouldn't
hold still so I could get a single good picture.)


Have I mentioned she LOVES chocolate?
No?  She really, really does!


Can you see that chocolate face?  Yeah, it became 
chocolate on my camera.


Then she tried to lick the camera! Really!
Like I said, she won't hold still.


What I found.  Now, I thought I had thrown this away,
it wasn't very good, waxy dark chocolate with
crunchy bits of orange.  Very wrong.  It is now in the trash.

So I clean up the baby.  Clean up my camera.  Then clean up the mess and throw it away.  When I come back.  SHE. IS. EATING. PAPER!  Sheesh.  Se loves paper almost as much as she loves chocolate.  I guess she needs more fiber.  Even funnier, the paper was the target coupon book for baby food.  Irony.

And now, she's just climbed onto the couch for the first time, by herself.  See GOAT!

Bronchitis

Sucks!  Big time!  I new I was coming down with something while my parents were here.  Oh man did I.  I went to the doctors on Tuesday and I already knew I had bronchitis.  How you ask? Well, I was coughing so hard I bruised my ribs and was peeing my pants.  Yeah, I said it!  I'm 40, have 3 kids, and was coughing till I nearly passed out. What about it?!?  Ha ha ha, NOT FUNNY!  Okay, kinda.

So tonight was FABULOUS!!!!  I finally got out for a bit by myself.  (It was humid out, not fabulous.  How humid you ask.  Well, so humid that my stick straight hair had curled around my head.  Yeah, yeah, I know shiny object, can you tell I feel better?)  Anyway, I got a coffee (oh, maybe that's part of it) and I went to Home Goods.  I am still on the look out for Beyonce.  But I do I have a lead to on one on Route 1, now I just need to figure out where that is.  But I did find this...


NINJA BREAD MEN!  I have wanted these forever, but didn't want to order them because the shipping was as much as the cutters.  Yeah, I'm a dork, but I love them.

And, the night got better.  As I was getting in my car, I noticed an angry woman walking very fast.  I thought, "Maybe she's angry because she has a mustache and a goatee?"  Nope, I'm fairly sure it was the bulge in her lycra skirt.  Not a bulge like in Poise (shut up!, there's no bulge ) but a bulge as in man.  They best way to describe her is to say if you've read Stephanie Plum's books, she was a man dressed as Lula.  And, don't get PC on me. She just needed a mirror check as any self respecting woman does.

Then, I got home, and it was awesome.  Aaron had put Piper to bed, and she was asleep.  She is still asleep.  I did have a momentary freak out because she had gotten into my stuff and I couldn't find my glasses prescription but I found it and I'm calm and the air conditioning is on.   So now I'm going to relax and watch the BIG BANG Theory! BANG!

Saying Goodbye

Sucks!!!!!!

On Saturday, we had to say good bye to my parents.  It was horrible for me, I hate saying good bye!  It was so wonderful having them here, in my house, for nearly a week.  I can't wait for them to come back.

Piper really loved her Grandma and Papa.  She was even saying Papa by the time they left and would hold up her arms and yell if Papa didn't pick her up fast enough.  Every time Piper heard my Mom's voice or heard her laugh, she would turn her head towards my Mom and just smile. It melted my heart numerous times to turn around and see Piper resting her head against my Mom's.  

And of course, Parker was thrilled to have Grandma and Grandpa here.  He was also thrilled when he was surprised with a brand new camera.  He is a very happy guy!

So now it's back to the grind, and I feel like death on a stick from this horrid cold/cough I have.  Very happy that I have a doctors appointment  already set up for tomorrow to meet my new doc.  Hopefully she'll give me something for this cough. My head feels like it is going to explode each time and I'm afraid I'll "Lizzelle".  Bwa ha ha ha!

Piper and the Back Yard

My, what lovely Clematis growing on my back fence.  I think they are beautiful.  (Thank you Sandy for letting me know what they are.) I love these flowers growing on the vines on our fence.  I have no idea what they are. I was told, but I don't remember.  Sorry.  So I thought I'd take some pictures of the Clematis and Piper today.






Piper HATES sitting/standing/walking or being on the grass to any extent!

I just wanted a nice picture of her (not crying)
sitting in the grass in front of the flowers.


I guess these will do.

For now.
