My two jobs

I have to say I love my job. I may not get paid, but I get a lot of free stuff and get to talk/connect with a lot of really awesome people, so it all balances out. Plus, nine times out of ten I'm in my pajamas when I'm working, which seriously makes it the best job hands down!

Like I said I get to interview a lot of really awesome people, usually via email, but on the rare occasion by phone. Today was one of those days. I got to interview Betty and Eric Hayes of Table for 12 on TLC. I'm not going to go into details because it hasn't run yet (check out Multiples and More on Monday), but let me just say they are the coolest, most down to earth, caring people on the planet. I felt like I have known them my whole life, it was awesome.

In other work related news (the stay at home variety that is), the kids are in full on climbing mode. I thought sippy cups would make me insane, but it may be climbing. Tough call. We have a glider in their bedroom and Aaron learned how to get into it while I was changing Jill. He also thought it would be hilarious to stand and ride it like a surf board (for reals), that was short lived. He also put his sister in a choke hold to prevent her from trying to sit next to him.

Speaking of choke holds.... It's like the WWE over here. It seems every time I turn around one is semi-smothering the other or yanking them by the collar until they hit the ground.

Scott and I are not immune to the WWE effect either. Aaron has headbutted me in the nose, cheek, eye, mouth (I've had a number of fat lips already) than I can count. Scott has a totally different problem seeing that the kids are the same height as his inseam (catch my drift). Future kids may be out of the question if it keeps up. Maybe that is their plan???

That's it over here. Can't wait for tomorrow! I love the kiddos Halloween costumes and cannot wait to see them in them again! Hope you're having a great day!

Where's the dog?

The kids and I laid pretty low today, it was over 100 degrees outside (yuck!). Aaron was a definite cuddler for the majority of the day, especially in the afternoon, mainly because we decided we didn't need afternoon naps. Joy...
Aaron did learn a new trick, if you will, he can now make farting noises on my leg. And let me tell you. he is proud! He will sit there and keep doing that for like 5 minutes, it's disgusting! Not only is my leg covered in drool, it's also covered in snot! But, he thinks it's hilarious, and really it kind of is. So kudos to Aaron, you truly are a little boy!
Jill's obsession with the dog has reached an all time high. Morgan decided to hide out for a while by the sliding door, and Jill was not having it. She ran over to the makeshift gate (as you will see in a moment) and was signing/saying dog like crazy. Morgan wouldn't even turn around, she was probably thinking the same thing I was, "don't these kids need a nap or something? I know I do!". Here's the video of Jill signing, it's too cute!

I started reading a new magazine called Body and Soul (it's from Martha Stewart) and it's all about green living. It's pretty decent. It definitely has a lot of good green living tips and is very "zen". Some articles are a little too let's go hang with the Dali Lama for me, but all in all it's a pretty awesome magazine.
OH! And because my job is awesome and I get to try a ton of products, I got the new starter kit from Nellie's All Natural. Um, it's awesome! The new dryer balls are PVC free AND you can put the scented soy fragrance sticks in them so your clothes smell like lavender. It's awesome! We're actually going to give away a starter kit next week (I think) on the blog. I'll post the date a few days early on here so you know when to check it out.
That's all that's going on over here, hopefully the weather is semi-nice tomorrow. Oh, and in case you were wondering Jon and Kate filed for divorce and I think it's hilarious that it was leaked to the media before they could announce it on their show. Take that TLC! (I know that wasn't nice)
