Too Tired to Blog

Okay so lately I've just been too tired to BLOG - so this is a "catch-up" post. I'll try and be a little bit more on top of things. But here's a little re-cap from the week.

TUESDAY - I spent most of the day at Paula's house helping her paint her nursery. It just needed to get done before the baby (with no name) comes ANY DAY NOW!

So, we painted it light blue and brown! It turned out ADORABLE - but I don't have a picture of the finished product, so you'll just have to trust me on that one.

That night I went to the "So You Think You Can Dance" concert with Leslie (thanks, Les!) - but I forgot my camera and am still waiting on some pictures of that so stay tuned....

Wednesday - We had our long time BFFs over for dinner. (since we ditched 'em the night before to go to the concert! - Sorry Kristy!) It was lots of fun catching up - and was long overdue!! Here's their cute family.

Their little Nick is the cutest little guy - you would die! He says "BYU eats boogers!" and kids never lie so...

Thursday - SOCCER, SOCCER, SOCCER!!

FRIDAY - Friday was too boring to blog about, really. Just a relaxing day. But here's the cutest picture of Cole that day playing with his favorite doggie. You can tell when a stuffed animal is a favorite of Cole's because he'll bite the nose! Mason did that too - I love it!

TODAY (Saturday) - So far - well not much. But I had an extremely frustrating morning with Hallie. She is so stinkin' shy - like PAINFULLY shy that she just can't function in crowds. I kinda just had it with her this morning at Soccer when she played her final game of the season and just stood there AGAIN! She has some serious "stage fright" issues that need to be resolved. No amount of coaxing, bribing or threatening has worked.

To show you what I mean, here she is on a normal basis at my house:

And here she is at Soccer (or Dance or Preschool or anywhere public):

It topped it off when she had pictures today and wouldn't stop putting her fingers in her mouth. I asked for my money back and told her we were done with Soccer. I don't know what to do. I tell ya - I feel like a failure sometimes.

So that's my week thus far ... "In a Nutshell" - (get it??)
