I've been buying waaaaaay too much stuff on LJ....lol. LJ has totally replaced my Ebay addiction. There's so much gratification in just buying something instead of bidding on something. Even though I know I could just go to the mall and pick almost everything I buy up... sometimes even cheaper...I guess I'mjust lazy...well, not lazy,but it's a lot of work taking the kids out. They're usually so cranky.

Thanksgiving was ok this year. My sis brought her bf over to "meet the folks" for the first time. I cooked dinner all by myself this year...well...my mom helped with the turkey. We actually had 2 Thanksgiving again. My in-laws had theirs on Saturday. It was also Emma's birthday and Michael announced his engagement to Charity. It was kinda awkward and weird. Kinda too soon if you ask me. It's not my place to say anything though.

I hit up Black Friday sales at 5am with my Mommy:) No one else wanted to wake up that early and go with me. I had fun with my Mom. We just got some stuff at Victoria's Secret and Gap. The sales were ok, the lines were ridiculous. I'm making sure never to go again. It's so not worth it, I'd rather sleep:)

Austin's getting sick...He has a stuffy nose. He says the funniest and grossest things. I gues it comes with having boys.

Austin's sniffling.

Me: Uh-oh Austin are you sick?

Austin:No...I'm not sick.(cough cough and then sniffling really loud)

Austin: See Mommy...you just gotta suck the booger juice like that.

Kids really do say the darndest things.

So, we got the Wii. We have 2 of them actually. My Husband left this morning at 6 and drove to Target where the line was wrapped around the building and they had 80 consoles. Then he drove over to Fry's Electronic where there were only 15 people camped out and waited an hour an a half to be the 16 person and they had 40 bundles for sale. The bundles came with 5 games and my husband also got Austin his Twilight Princess that he's been wanitng for 2 year now. My MIL also got a hold of 2 if we weren't able to get one ourselves. I'm happy the boys got what they wanted:) Now it's time for me:)

So we drove around to different stores to see how the lines were for the Wii. A lil less crazy than the PS3 release,but still long and crazy nonetheless. I really should have pre-ordered a long time ago.I would have waited in line with my Husband,but no way with the kids. Oh well...I'll make the rounds tomorrow,but I doubt I'd get my hands on one. I'll also check with my MIL since she's awesome when it comes down to getting the must-have toy/video games/consoles/anything hard to find. She's an experienced veteran you might say. I guess it comes from having eight kids:) Wish me luck cuz I don't think I'm getting one today,but we'll see.

Man this week has gone by so fast!!!

Work was slow today. The day dragged on and on...I hate that. I really need to take the boys to go shopping for their Halloween costumes. Austin can't decide what he wants to be for Halloween. One day it's Link, the next it's SpongeBob and then it's a pirate oh and a Grim Reaper. How he knows what the Grim Reaper is..is beyond me. He's only 4. I think I'm gonna make Ethan be a cute lil pumpkin or something cute:) I had 2 years of dressing Austin in cute costumes before he decided he wanted to be something else.

So Dick is leaving for LA next week for work and I'm so bummed:( I hate when he leaves me and the boys. My sister will be coming out to help me for the week though and the boys love their Auntie Lydia. I really hope she comes drama free cause I don't think I can deal with it.

Just got back from the Coach Outlet!!! Yes, I dragged the kids and the husband with me after work....lol...My wonderful husband bought me a Carry-All in a pretty tourquoise/peacock color with a matching wallet, a black nylon brass satchel and a butterfly pave key fob. I'm lovin it!!!! I have the bestest husband in the world:)

Had a great day today:)

Work went by fast. Talked to Stepfanie and Jasmine, which always puts a smile on my face. I really miss my BFFs.

My sisters volunteered to take the boys to the zoo and the pumpkin patch. Dick had to work, but came home early when I told him the kids were out for the day.

We decided to go have sushi at this place I saw on 'Eye On the Bay' called Sushi 2 2 Train. It was a cute lil restaurant. We sat at the bar with a lil train that went around instead of a lil boat. It was too cute. I miss spending time with my husband. We don't get to do this that often with kids and running 2 seperate businesses. We decided to go home and take a much needed nap afterwards...lol.

The kids had fun and I missed them so much:) I'm going to be one of those moms who cry in the parking lot when the kids go off to school...lol...I can see it now.

I think I'm gonna head out to the Coach outlet tomorrow...lol...I'm seriously addicted to Coach and handbags in general. If only there were an LV or Marc Jacobs outlet, I'd be in Heaven:)

So, I really just started this LJ to buy cute handbags from other LJ users...lol...I think I'm getting addicted to buying things off here....This can easily get out of hand like Ebay!!! It's so much fun though....My Husband might not think so though...Oh well:)

So...I decided to get an LJ...I've never tried this blogging thing before...we'll see how much I like this.
