This is real life. The truth is, I'm not that great at it. But this is it, and it is my life. You want me to post pictures of what I wear every day? You'd have a collaboration of different yoga pants, and oversized t-shirts--some worn multiple days in a row {cringe}! You want to know my toddler lunch meal ideas? They often vary between dino nuggets, pb&j, or ravioli--but hey, at least it's the frozen kind and not Chef Boyardee...although that has made a few appearances! You want pictures of my home decor? Well my house is usually a mess. There are dishes in the sink and laundry to be put away. Most days, with my two crazy sidekicks calling the shots, I don't have time to shower, and rarely even do my hair {am I really admitting this in a public forum?!}! But this is life, and it is my life. And I'm lucky enough to get to share it with an amazing husband and the 3 cutest kids in the world, so no matter how you look it, I'm the luckiest!

The Want Ads

HELP WANTED!
Mike and I have a few vacations planned this spring and summer and unfortunately we cannot take our adorable puppy with us. :( Sometimes my parents take the animal and other times I've had a neighbor and her cute kids watch him. Both work great. When my parents watch him he stays at their house. When my neighbor watches him he stays here and they just come and visit at least morning and night and sometimes they take him out or take him to their house. My parents are going to be unavailable some of the time though and I feel guilty for always asking the same neighbor, so I just thought I'd put this little post up just to see if there are any volunteers. There are PLENTY of people we can ask so no one should feel obligated, I just thought I'd see if there was anyone out there who would like the chance to have a little companion for a little while. :)
Chief is amazingly well behaved. Those of you who knew him as a puppy may think I'm crazy :) but he really is. He is so well trained now, even I have been completely amazed at how obedient he is. He loves to be around people and likes to jump on people but considering his size that's generally not a problem. When we're at work or wherever we just leave him in the house free to roam. He has NEVER had an accident while we were away. He is the sweetest thing and obeys really well. He's really a ton of fun. He's my little angel. I call him my puppy love. :)

Does he do well around kids? If so, I'm sure that Isaac would LOVE to help watch him for a few days! He is so dog crazy, it's funny. Oh, and he'd have to get along well enough with our cat. She is kind of particular. But let me know!

I'm gonna be back in Bountiful starting Wednesday, and if Chief is okay with bigger dogs, maybe I could watch him when your parents are busy.

I see that you have a baby counter. Are you pregnant? If you are congratulations that is so exciting.

Yeah, I got your comment... and I had a whole response typed out until the wireless internet crashed. :( I'll call you when I get settled, or feel free to stop by and see me if you are at your parents house. I don't have a car, or I would come see you.

We would love to watch your puppy ANYTIME! Raigen loves dogs and we watched our friends dog a couple weeks ago and she keeps asking me where the dog is. If you still need someone call me.
