NO! MINE!

Well today I went out to get a new pair of Teva flip flops and Toby immediately decided that they were his. it was as if he was saying No1 Mine every time he saw them in the truck until we got home. I went to put them on once at home and he again with the No! Mine! and tugging at them to get them off of my feet so that he can wear them. After a few minutes of this routine I decided to let him have them for a few minutes until he decided that his shoes are a better fit for his little feet. it was too cute to watch him wear them around the living room.




All the shoes in the house are Toby's, or so he thinks.

Happy Easter!

Ahhh... Spring

Well I meant to post this earlier this week, more like on Monday night but I got distracted. Any way here is how the week went.

I had promised Troy that if he help me build the patio area that i would buy him a new grill. Our old one was in shambles and in dire need of replacement so this was not a big deal for me to get a new on. Especially since we grill often in the summer and even in the winter months.

New Grill


New Grill


Old Grill...... See it has no legs and the grill on the inside is so thin that it is really hard to cook on.

I was surprised that Troy did not want a different grill as I let him pick with no price range. I even pointed out grills that had higher prices and he still went with the good old large Weber charcoal grill.

Sunday and Monday Toby, Troy and i spent a lot of time outside as the weather was finally nice and warm. It was in the 70's both days. Finally spring like weather oh how I wish it would have stayed that way. Anyway i have some good pictures of Toby playing outside in the sunshine.

Troy joined a soccer league last week and played his first game last week. His team plays on Tuesday nights in Poulsbo at the Zone Sport Center. this week he injured himself pretty badly by pulling his Quadriceps in his right leg. i have never seen a strain so bad but it is bruised terribly and swollen like a water melon. I feel really bad for him. I says he should have stayed retired in the soccer department. I don't think that he has played that badly for someone who hasn't played in over ten years, i know i wouldn't be able to play as well and it has been about the same for me.

Troy, Toby and myself would like to say that we are all saddened by the lost of Troy's cousin Syril Wolf. Our condolences go out to the family as we know he will be missed by all. May he rest in peace.



This Week In Review

That deal I have been working on has finally closed and i have been able to relax for the last few days. What a load off of my mind. I have never had such a stressful time with my work as i have for the last few months trying to get this one deal together. Even when Troy and i bought our house it wasn't as stressful and believe me that one was difficult.

The gym i go to has an incentive program that I signed up for in January and on of the incentives was a 30 minute session with a trainer. Well i cashed in on it this Wednesday and i am now on a set program that I do every time i go to the gym. I have done it 3 days in a row and man i tell you what I wish I had done it sooner. I had been stuck in a rut for the last month or so and now i am getting back on track.

As for Toby he has decided that the house belongs to him and that his toys do not belong in his toy box. instead they belong all over the house. You can not walk anywhere without possibly injuring yourself by stepping on a toy and trying to catch your balance. We try to keep his toys picked up but as soon as we put them away he is right back at it and spreading them throughout the house.

I do not have any new pictures this week but i will try and get some going for a picture post.
