Ah, the Randomness

1. I am still working at the hotel, but hopefully soon, changes will be coming.

2. I am impatient that Nip/Tuck won't be starting the new season until October.

3. We are trying to feel like going for walks every night after Batman gets home from work.

4. I only have to work Thursday and Friday this week so maybe Batman and I can do a raid on WoW together for once.

5. I am reading the Harry Potter books. I am on the second one right now.

6. We don't have plans to go to Kansas again until Christmas. We have possibly some family coming up for Halloween and maybe Thanksgiving.

7. I can't believe its almost August and we have only gone swimming once. Poor Spiderman loves the water so much.

8. No idea what to cook for supper tonight after our walk.

9. Superman turned one 19 days ago. He is trying very slowly to walk. One of these days...

10. And a week ago I chopped about 6 inches of hair off my head. I tried to get a Posh cut, but it ended up longer than that thankfully cause I think I wouldn't have liked it that short.

Picture time!!

Mundane Monday

The topic is what’s your sign?

I am a Terrific Taurus.

Patient and reliable
Warmhearted and loving
Persistent and determined
Placid and security loving

On the dark side....

Jealous and possessive
Resentful and inflexible
Self-indulgent and greedy

I think that all these words pretty much describe me. They could describe several other people that aren't Taurens. However, instead of the word, inflexible...I prefer stubborn.

The Greek myth of the bull-form taken by Zeus in order to win himself another woman was always interesting to me. According to legend, Zeus was enamored of Europa and decided to seduce or ravage her, the two being near-equivalent in Greek myth. He transformed himself into a tame white bull and mixed in with her father's herds. While Europa and her female attendants were gathering flowers, she saw the bull, caressed his flanks, and eventually got onto his back. Zeus took that opportunity and ran to the sea and swam, with her on his back, to the island of Crete. He then revealed his true identity, and Europa became the first queen of Crete. She gave birth to 3 of Zues's children.


So, What's your sign??

Where have I been?!?!

Geez, it seems like I have been too busy to sit down very long. Summer does that to a lot of people I think.
We left at the end of June to go back to Kansas for Sister #1s wedding. Sisters #2&3 were very excited to get to see their nephews.
We had a full week with, Superman's first birthday party and bachelorette party, and bridal shower, and rehearsal dinner and the wedding. Not to mention the primping and preparing for the big wedding.

Well I can not believe that my little Superman is 1 already. He has such a fun personality now. He waves all the time. He does a little fake laugh when anyone starts laughing, and then when you laugh at him laughing, he just laughs harder. And the poor kid laughs like his mama. He has taken a few steps, but isn't quite ready for full on walking. I am sure he will just take off in a few days like its nothing.
Spiderman stayed in KS with family and won't be back until the 20th. Sure makes the house a bit more boring without him about. Superman keeps looking around for big brother and yelling his name but then has to settle with just mom and dad for entertainment. I can't believe that a year ago I became a mother to two boys. Its exhausting just thinking about it.

Well here is a slideshow of our summer so far and I am sure we will stay busy with outdoor activities and I hope to update you again soon. Maybe now that the wedding stuff is over with, I can concentrate on keeping up with the blogging.
