an unruly dog, a wonky toe and real men wear PINK.

How'd you like that blog title?

Some random tidbits, in no particular order.....

1.)  Am I the only person who has no desire to learn how to fold a fitted sheet [or know how to fully work all of the remotes in our house, for that matter]?  People keep pinning "FINALLY! - how to fold a fitted sheet" tutorials on Pinterest and I just have no interest whatesoever in knowing how to do that?  Don't we all have "those" things - that are probably pretty simple, but you just don't really care to know how to do?  Or am I just lazy?

2.)  It's strange how often complete strangers want to touch your baby.  I'm trying to not be a freak about this, because I'm a baby addict too and remember wanting to just squeeze on little cute babes I'd see out and about.........but now, as a mom, I cringe inside every time someone I don't know tries to touch him [maybe I should just keep my ass out of Target... that would help tremendously].  I've actually thought about saying he has chicken pox, so they'd keep their hands off.  Kidding.   Mostly.

3.)   My brother treated me to a pedicure yesterday for my b-day [and he joined me - such a trooper].  He told the sweet Vietnamese woman who was doing his pedicure [who spoke little to no English] to "just go ahead and avoid that one wonky toe".  She repeatedly messed with said wonky toe.  She finally got what he was saying when he cringed when she touched it for the 3rd time.  I was dying laughing.  Out loud.

4.)  I turned 29 yesterday and had a perfect day.  My hubby had a donut cake and chocolate milk (and a very sweet letter from him and Jackson) waiting for me when I woke up!!!  Strawberry donuts + chocolate milk + anything with the word "cake" in it + my two sweet boys = perfection!

5.)  Then Cason brought Chinese takeout home for lunch.....and then pedicures with my brother and drinks and dinner at a restaurant w/ a fun patio.  Good times. :)  I'm so thankful for all of the sweet birthday wishes..... texts, phone calls, emails, comments here on the blog, Facebook wishes, etc!!!  SO SWEET --- it made my day!

6.)  You know how I mentioned the donut cake my hubs made?  Well, we ate about 4 of the 12 donuts....meaning there were 8 left.  Hanna, our freakishly long-legged lab, ate 7 of the remaining 8 this morning while I was in another room.  Awesome.  I walked in to find her with both front paws up on the counter and a donut halfway down her mouth.  So yep, she's had 7 donuts today ......  chances are good I'll have a sick pup on my hands shortly. :(  No birthday donut for her this year (her and Miss Rose get a donut every year on their bday).  Hanna's set for the next 7 years.

7.)  Sending some birthday love this morning to our peeps in Friona, TX!!!  Cason's sister, Britny & her son, Brayden, share the same birthday....how neat is that?!   [I should have used my camera to take these instead of my trusty iPhone!]
