Stuff

February 7th, 2012

This post is aptly named. I have a bunch of “stuff” going on and I thought I would give you a peak into some of what’s happening around here.

MASON

He is so big you guys. I took him to the vet today just so I could weigh him out of morbid curiosity. When he was in three weeks ago, he weighed 39 lbs.

Today at 14 weeks, he weighs 50. Weird, my back could have sworn it was more than that.

I just love a big dog, but they are a puppy for only an instant. They do however make astounding messes when potty training, but that’s a whole other deal. Let me just say that my carpet cleaner is my new best friend. We spend a lot of time together.

VALENTINES DAY

My kids are as obsessed as I am, and Pia got up at 5 AM to work on her Valentines today. I’m tired. But I will share this awesome craft that we made later this week.

I am doing a Valentines Day Segment on New Day Northwest tomorrow, Wednesday the 8th at 11AM on KING 5 for all you Northwesterners. (I will put it on my blog later this week for those of you who are not.)

I have another Valentines Day Segment coming up on Monday the 13th on
Access Hollywood. Ha! Does that make you chuckle as much as it does me? I will share more details about that in the days to come, but I am SO EXCITED!!!

HGTV:

Are any of you HGTV fans? I am.

And I just spent the last week filming the first part of two different segments of their new show “I hate my contractor” out on the East coast.

It was exhausting, but it was awesome.

I am getting to design two different NEW kitchens for families who have been basically screwed over by contractors and left with the mess. Can you imagine? These poor people who shelled out a bunch of money and let people come into their home and then were left with crap-ola.

But John DeSilvia comes and saves them. For two episodes, I get to be his trusty design sidekick. Pretty Cool huh?

I will let you know when I go back and shoot the second half. Maybe that time I will be together enough to take some better pictures. All I shot with my I phone is pictures of the piles and piles of equipment.

Lame I know- but the amount of stuff is crazy!!

MY MOM and DAD

While Pete and I were gone for 6 days, my mother fixed all of my 4 year olds sleep “issues.” My dad stopped the dog from biting everything in site and I came home to perfectly adjusted children and an organized pantry. Thank You mom and dad.

The WEIRD WEATHER

Oh! Also, uh, as the weather has turned on it’s head this year. (uh, we had a blizzard two weeks ago?) and now it has been so warm and sunny that my crocuses are blooming.
??? what ???
**By the way- I had to crouch in a lawn full of dog poop to take this picture this morning. I hope you like it.

I feel an epic gardening year coming on…. Does anyone care about gardening here? Let me know….
