observations

just some thoughts i've had lately...

first of all - watching jay with gabe helps me understand why ALL children need a dad!! he plays games & throws gabe around in ways i'd never think to. sometimes my heart stops for a second...but gabe loves it. and NEEDS it! dads are rough, wild and crazy. gabe needs that as much as he needs my gentleness :)

they are hilarious together. i wish everyone could watch. gabe is so brave! he goes right along with all of jays silliness. jay throws him around like he's an olympic athlete.

those puff snacks for babies...so good! jay and i eat them more than gabe i think. no joke, last night i thought "i need a bowl of milk and i can make this into cereal." poor g.

carrot baby food tastes like tomato soup.

walmart diapers leak.

it never fails if i get a basket to shop at a store...i need a buggy.

snacking at fresh market is fabulous.

mentos gum is the BEST. thanks mom!

my mom is seriously the TOUGHEST human being i've ever known. she goes hard from sun up to sun down. i admire her in so many ways. her love & heart for God being #1.

wearing makeup is overrated. i KNOW i need it & look better with it but the days i wear it i end up staying home or just in my office most of the day. whats the point?!  i wonder why i hate putting it on so much. it takes like 10 mins.

i wont wear "real clothes" if i dont have on makeup. just the same i wont wear workout clothes if i do have on makeup. i'm strange.

gabe likes to drink a bottle with his left foot straight up in the air.

4 door jeeps are SUPER FUN. i cannot wait to take the top off and take all the kids on a ride! (g, ava, allie, addison, vasa and if i can fit 'em in...jack & wes!)

cucumbers without the peeling = less gas :)

final witness is a great show.

college football is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CLOSE.

guacamole is one of my favorite things. i really love it. salsa too.

i could drink unsweet tea all.day.long.  well, after my coffee of course. it's about all i drink other than water. i really love it.

has walmart EVER opened all their checkout lanes?

yesterday i was at target (one of my happy places!) and i saw a little girl tell an employee that she couldn't find her mom. no joke - they paged her mom like 3 times. how did she NOT notice her daughter wasn't with her???? and why would it take 3 calls to come get her???

maybe i have a friendly face - but random people tend to start conversations with me. i love it. yesterday i got stopped & asked about my jeep, my haircut and my eyes. that was fun.

gabe is a show stopper. i can say that b/c it has nothing to do with me :) people stop us everywhere we go and talk about how handsome he is. cutie!

like me (unless i'm working out) Gabe hates to sweat!

i am too cheap to pay for items on the clearance rack at kinnucans.

fundraising car washes annoy me.

i am addicted to chewing gum.

i love to sleep. i mean, love.

everything sucks when its 100 degrees outside. why?? why does it ever need to be that hot? i break into a sweat checking the dang mail. reason # 549503849285949021 makeup is stupid.

you can almost always find diet green tea in our fridge.

giada (from the food network) drives me insane only saying a few words with an italian accent. it's like me with spanish. every now & then i throw in a spanish word w an accent. but not when i'm simply saying it in english! ha!

she also almost always shows cleavage. i dont get it.

say what you will...but the bread sticks at olive garden are overrated. i am pretty sure they get them at sams.

i think i've lost my mind registering for a whole marathon. oh my. thats a LONG time to run. i shouldn't have to snack while running.... i'm scared.

i have a ton of cute pj's and yet i sleep in jays tshirts. cant help myself. and forget that stupid lingerie...ha! can we say uncomfortable?????? good thing it comes off quick ;)

gabe is talking himself to sleep in his crib right now. sweetest thing.

i asked jay to put away a pair of jeans & khaki shorts for 2 days. he didnt. now he cant seem to find them............

our pastor is on sabbatical and has been since the beginning of june-ish. i miss him. but our church (well some people) have been fasting ONE thing while he's gone. jay chose to focus on eating mainly fruit & vegetables. i've been very impressed with him. but Lord knows we have found our way around making it "healthy!" haha. tater tots anyone?

but i know jay is ready to eat normal bfast and meat whenever his heart desires. i'm ready too! i've missed my bites of all his yummy meals.

i only got to hit the beach once this summer. once...that is uncalled for. and it was only for 2 days. SAD.

i cant believe school is about to start. what? but the good news is school = football. yeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

random kaci facts:
i hate shaving my legs.

i cant stand working out in my wedding band.

i have a huge bunion on my left foot. sometimes it hurts for no reason. sometimes a bed sheet touching it hurts.

one of my favorite sounds is jays truck pulling in the driveway.

for a lot of my life i had long hair.  like mid back long.

i can't braid.

i dont like lemonade.

i dont like milk unless its in cereal.

i hate my struggle with self-image.

i cannot keep plants alive.

i've never smoked a cigarette.

i've had the same pair of sunglasses since i was 15. i hate wearing sunglasses.

since 1997 i've lost over 55 lbs.

i think a kid in pjs is the cutest thing in the world.

i hate camping.

i am horrible at fishing, playing bball and canoeing.

oh & skiing - refer back to a past blog for that foolishness.


i need new topics to blog about.
