Not what I thought!

So as promised here is my current weight! I thought somehow I would wake up and have magically lost 3 pounds! Wouldn't that be awesome? So there you have it folks!

If you read my comments you will notice how not smart "chinny chin chin" is- she just ratted herself out! In my defense- it wasn't a loud "toot" - AND we were at a Mexican food place ( even though I had a ceaser salad BUT I did have chips n salsa!)

So Chiners isnt as funny as she thinks she is!! Wish me luck and let me know whose jumpin on the wagon with me- chiners lets have another competition! Your going down- again! In case you just joined us- scroll down and find out why my weight is here

IT'S A NEW DAWN, IT'S A NEW DAY

Okay- so, I was having lunch today with my friend who we will call "chinny chin chin" ( to protect her identity, and hide the fact that at age 37, while we were eating I noticed a tell tale sign of aging- A HAIR ON HER CHIN!!!) Any whooze- after I pointed this out to her, she tried to pull it out, and Im talking this hair was about the size of a babys' eyelash- she somehow managed to "curl" the hair! So now it is curled in towards her chin instead of hanging down! We were probably the 2 biggest dorks out in the parking lot of Panchangas! We almost peed our pants! Then I told her she should add a bow or a bead and go into work that way! I am cracking myself up again-it was hysterical! So she managed to pull the hair out completely- but I still have visions of her with a bead hanging off her chin " hello- may I help you?"

Oh the laughs! So this same person chastised me for not having my bffs on my favs( bet she's regrettin that now!)

So my new idea is..... I will be a brave girl here... Im going out on a limb....

Starting tommorrow, I am going to weigh myself in the morning after I have gotten completely naked, and I am going to post my weight! Why am I doing this? Well, some of you know that Adam and I have really gotten into tennis and running but for some reason- I have not been able to drop my last 5 pounds. Sometimes Im at 126, sometimes 129, but TODAY of course I was at 131! So I need some cheering on- so get your pom poms and megaphones out and lets have ourselves a game here!

I will be 39 on June 7th, and Im hoping to be around 123-125- Can I do it? Guess we will have to see! Anyone interested in joining me? Now there are some of you who are out for obvious reasons- Alisa, Heather J, Michelle B, and anyone else who weighs less than me! So look for my picture of my actual weight tommorrow in the a.m. This should help keep me on track!

By the way- "lakishckas" is what Taylor calls strawberry shortcakes. We dont know why- she just does!

Just Plain Lazy!

Well people- I admit defeat! I am too tired to hook up my camera to transfer pics so I thought maybe I would just take this time to gab!
Everyone had a good week- no major bumps or stitches needed- yeah for that.
How about I tell you all of my favs and not so favs?

1. I HATE when my husband has control of the remote.
2. I love desp housewifes and Grey's anatomy- Adam hates those two shows
3. He just commented to me that we should ask the Bishop if the first mentioned show is something we should have in our home ( I would like to see him do that since he is sitting here in the same room watching)
4. I love being a stay at home mom even though I am rarely home!
5. I do NOT like overly sweet things but dont mind an occassional licorice twist (red) or an occassional piece of chocolate cake.( wedding cake being the BEST)
6. I love holding babies and smelling their sweet little heads.
7. I love the smell of puppies breath- not dog- PUPPY breath!
8. I love my calling but am glad when Sunday nights come around.
9. Texting! What a great thing! ( for the times I don't feel like talking but don't mind a conversation)
10. I HATE when I forget someones name, but LOVE when they remember mine! ( is that mean?)
11. Love my house- HATE to have to move away!
12. Wish I had that piece of cake right now
13. Love going to the beach- HATE that it takes awhile to feel like all the sand is off me
14. Love to sing along to "Fast car" and pretend I CAN actually sing
15. I love to play dress up and go on dates with my husband!
Those are my top 15 thoughts for the night. I will try to do my REAL page 2morrow- so Melissa VK- chill-ax gurl- I will try to update more for ya! I will admit that you are correct when you say I am a pretty exciting girl but....Not so much tonight!

So, our big major event of the week was Taylor falling off the stool while brushing her teeth! As you can see, she had a big gash on her chin and needed to get 2 stitches. She was such a brave girl about it- she hardly cried AT ALL! Even when the doctor "pulled" some fat out of her chin, AND she wasn't even completly numb so you can imagine the pain of having the fish hook needle going in and out of her chin! Needless to say I did have to bribe her by giving her a trip to Target for whatever she wanted. So $35 later and a lunch trip to Jack in the Box- she was stitched up and on her way to school. She ended her day with a 100% on her first spelling test!

Parker earned a "yellow arrow" in Cub Scouts along with a patch for selling the most Scout Expo tickets. He also got a compass, a pocket knife, a flashlight for his head and a basketball. It was the most expensive compass, pocket knife, flashlight, and basketball we ever paid for! ( Hey- I have no shame, and when it comes to Parker- money is not an issue!) It warms my heart that he LOVES Scouts and that everyone is soooo sweet to him.

Makenzie got off restriction in time to enjoy her 4 day weekend. She passed off her "Give me Liberty" challenge which was honesty quite hard! She did in 1 week what normally should have taken her all school year. The picture of her and her friends is the future Relief Society! Her and her two best friends went and saw "Emma Smith", and when the movie was over- in their words- " we were surrounded by old people!" FUNNY!

So there you have our week, as for Adam and myself , the week was spent doing the normal things we parents do! We did manage to see "The forbidden Kingdom with Jet Li and Jackie Chan( good) and we have been playing "American Idol" on the wii- which is hysterical because I suck! So here is my question for the week-

Do you think we as parents push our kids enough to do their best?

I ask because I feel like I am constantly pushing and pushing and its not until my kids actually do it and "see" the fruit of their labors that they get excited. Why do we have to constantly push?

Oh and by the way- Deal or No Deal is NOT over yet- I got a golden ticket in the mail guaranteeing that the producers WILL watch my 5 minute video ( thanks to my friend Becki who got there late, wore heels and was there past 7pm!) I'm still not sure what I'm going to do but I am workin on it!

So Im back from the Deal or No Deal tryouts! We did so good- it was tough! I still can't believe that people actually camped out the night before. We got there about 8 am and waited and waited and waited! Glad I didn't wear heels because you never got to sit! The line just kept moving and moving. So, we went in groups of 10 and we each had 20 seconds to just be ourself.

I was my normal dorky self and I did my Michael Jackson impersonation of "Hee Hee Hee".

Well that worked! I got to go on to the next part- and so now I had only 10 seconds to make an impression. I thought I did a great job but sadly I got beat out by some guy who claimed to have invented a new way to speak and by some girl who admitted that she waxed off part of her eyebrow the night before. Lame Sauce! But like the producers said- that doesnt mean Im out of the running. They do go thru our applications and sometimes they call people up to a year later.

I WONT BE WAITING BY THE PHONE but I do hope they call. All and all it was fun to be with my sister in law and her sister in law Charity- who happens to be in my ward.

Yes, so everyone out there is so funny because I'm getting ripped on for not updating like on a regular basis! I have a little bit of time today so.....
2mrw- I'm going to Salt Lake with my sister Melissa and we are going to go audition for Deal or No Deal. I doubt I will make it but like my friend Becki says " it will be fun anyways". I agree and you know I think the break would be nice. Adam will have to do hair and make up for Kenz plus get her down to the college by 7:40 am! Kenz has a dance competition and it could take all day. I have been doing this by myself with all three kids since she started on Pizazz which was 5 years ago. It is not easy and hopefully Adam will realize this is no cake walk! I will let you know how it all goes so just wish the Wallick family a lot of luck this weekend!

Adam

Adam is so proud of himself because HE is the one who did the "our spring pics" scrapbook page! Isn't he cute? Im sure later on he will want something in return- wink wink!

Spring is in the air! It's an Easter Parade!

Community egg hunt- Doesn't Makenzie look sooo thrilled? Parker is very excited and Taylor just is glad that there is a camera to pose for!

This Spring was so fun, because the kids got to do three egg hunts. One in our community, one for the disabled kids of our city, and the final one at Grandma and Grandpas house.( That's the money maker there cuz Grandpa and Grandma put dollar bills, change, and Mickey D's certificates!) Our family motto at EVERY egg hunt is " Dont stop, just scoop and drop!" Seriously!
