Halloween Preparations

My son is 2.5 years old (and he’s not afraid to tell you that he’s 2.5 and NOT 2!) He is finally old enough (somewhat) to tell us what he wants to be dressed up as for Halloween. This year he threw us all for a loop..He has been asking to be Captain Hook and being the cheapskate I am I couldn’t justify spending 70$ for the costume and supplies from the Disney Store. I mean come on..he is going to trick or treat for maybe what, an hour!? So we talked him down to a pirate..easy easy easy…and better yet CHEAP..haha…but then on Friday I noticed the Captain Hook costume went to 40% off..so I talked to the hubby and we decided he would be so happy so we would buy it for him. Since I work right by a Disney Store I would run on my lunch this week and pick it up! Ohhhh no…Logan had other plans..he found a costume at Old Navy yesterday while shopping that he HAD..and I mean ABSOLUTELY HAD to have…as in would not take it off to leave the store….and he was so proud of that darn costume….mom on the otherhand…embarrassed…..ha…

Here’s why….

Yes folks my son wants to be a cheeseburger!! I blame this weirdness on his father..It most surely can't be because of me! :)

And to top off this holiday of weirdness...Ian, my almost 6 month old is going to be a hotdog..because I found this adorable hot dog costume at Old Navy 3 years ago, and dang it one of my kids WILL wear it someday.. Now I just need to find a french fry costume for the dog and we are all set. :)

Random Ramblings

Random Ramblings…

I started this blog because I adore reading others blogs and want to feel like I’m doing something with my free time (FREE TIME—WHAT?)

I started nursing school Sept 7th, and haven’t blogged since. HA—go hand in hand..I think so!

I will probably send through all my blog posts I started and didn’t finish all at once, so be prepared for  LOTS of blog posts all at once to get me caught up.

I realized working in the nursing home is not for me…these clinical training days kill me both emotionally and sometimes physically.

October 21st---FAMILY VACATION to Disney World cannot come soon enough!

My baby is turning 6 months old in a few weeks..THAT’S HALF A YEAR! What is going on here!

My first baby will be three in 86 days…cue the sobbing..ugh I hate that they are getting so old..but they are oh so fun!

I have so many fun things that blog buddies have turned me onto lately I must share those things with you soon…I wish I had all the money in the world to buy everything I love!

My days since Sept 7th and until October 18th consist of me leaving my house at 6am to get to work by 7am and work (with no lunch break) until 3pm head straight to school/clinicals until 10pm or 8pm…depending on the night..home to do housework pass out on the couch….YUCK

I love living in Wisconsin, but I love Fall too much to be able to enjoy 75 degree weather..I would love some 50’s and 60’s please!

I don’t want to go to India for work…I don’t want to go to India for work!

I may be doing my first giveaway this weekend…..hopefully people find there way to my blog and want to enter!!!

I miss not doing my “coupon” shopping during my school days!

I can’t wait for the weekend to be here—even though it will consist of catching up on all the housework I missed this past week. HA

I joined Pinterest and am starting to fall in love with it even though at the beginning I didn’t know how to navigate around it.


I promise I will update more meaningful stuff SOON!
