Dentac Ball 2010

Finally- after 3 years I get to go to a military ball!  I've been so excited for this eventhough I had heard from many people how boring they are.  I didn't care!  I just wanted to get all dressed up and have a chance to see my handsome husband all decked out in his uniform!  And I think it was totally worth it:)  We had a fun time going and hanging out with a few of the people he works with, and yes, it was a little boring at one point, but easy to forget while you check out what everyone else is wearing.  I don't think I feel the need to go EVERY year, but once in awhile will be fun.

There's an inside joke about the Oral Surgery Residency.  We've decided that in order to be a resident here you have to be bald.  Not all by choice, and not all are bald, but most of them are and it's funny how it makes them look alot alike!

Logan's 6 Months Old

Well- Logan has finally turned 6 months old and like always I forgot that you needed to take pictures to document that milestone!  Since I was such a slacker I couldn't get the photographer that I LOVE to take the pictures because she was about to pop out one of her own little darlings.  (Yes- she didn't get the memo that she's suppose to plan her family around my schedule!) (I really hope people that read this understand that I am incredibly sarcastic!)  Well, I figured I would have to wait to get professional pictures taken and instead just took some myself to commemorate the occasion.  I'm still playing around with our iPhoto editing, but this is what I have so far.  I think I may have edited a little too much, you'll have to let me know:)

I'm a GOOD mom!

True story from this morning.

I get the girls ready for school and out the door.  It's my turn to drive, so I'm herding them into the van.  I pause to get a drink of water.  As I walk into the garage this is what happens:

Katie:  Mooommmm! (That sound is worse than nails on a chalkboard, and is usually followed with whining.)  

Katie:  Cole called me dumb!

Cole:  So did Maddie!

Maddie:  I did not!

Cole:  Yes you did!

I take a deep breath, count to ten, and it doesn't work.

I'm prepared to ignore it all when Cole turns and glares at Katie as if to say, 'ha! I got away with it!'

I say (pretty sure it was more like yell- and I'm sure the whole neighborhood heard because my garage door was open):

"Cole, Katie is a hundred times smarted than you, so if she's dumb what does that make you! (pause for dramatic effect)  DUMBER!!!!" 

That's right Ladies and Gentlemen, I am officially the best mom ever!
