My Many Days....

After posting last, I decided to play McGyvor (sp). We had some leakage under the kitchen sink last weekend. Grady showed me that they garbage disposal had some major problems. He put everything back under the sink and moved my dish drain to that side. I guess I was not supposed to use it? Well, Monday rolled around and that sink STUNK! I took it into my own hands. I called his mom and asked for some tips from Gene. He said I needed plumbers putty. I grabbed the computer and looked at what installing one needed. I FOUND THE PROBLEM! Some of the screws had come loose and fallen out. I loaded the kids up in the suburban and ran to Home Depot. We purchased the expensive stuff to fix it ($1.86). I came home and put them to bed and then took on the fix.

These are GROSS!!!!
When Grady got home (it was late), the kitchen sink was fixed! I was so proud of myself, so I had to share it with you all. Pat, pat on the back...

Myles has been a bit cranky again lately. He is running a fever and just seems miserable. I called the pediatric nurse and she was concerned about another ear infection. I don't want to put him on antibiotics again since he has had four since birth, not to mention the risk of the bugs becoming super ones. I DON'T WANT MRSA AGAIN. I took the kids to the health food store and bought some garlic oil for him. He smells a bit funny, but I think that they are working. Everytime I give him some, he falls asleep with the cotton balls in his ears.

While uploading pictures for the post, I am often surprised at what else I find on the camera. I don't know who took this picture, but had to share it. Doesn't this just look like fun?

While browsing Etsy the other day, I came across a gal that reuses boxes and makes notepads out of them. After shopping yesterday, we had four bargain boxes of fruit snacks. I tried my hand at the notepad. It was simple thanks to the cropodile that my wonderful husband bought me a while ago. Thought you all may like the idea too. Here they are:

I wanted to save them for the trip in July, but may let the kids take them to church for artsy stuff during sacrament.

Grady pulled out the ugly shrubs out front yesterday and has been doing some yard work. As much as I don't want to water again already, it is time. The sprinklers are watering down fertilizer right now. After doing the monthly grocery shopping, we had a birthday party yesterday that was fun for the kids, and then an Elders Quorum dinner at the church last night for the families. My babies were tuckered out. I think that shopping on the weekend just did me in. WAY too much TRAFFIC. I really feel for you Wyomingites that come up and have to battle it. Monday through Wednesday are the best for your information.

Have a great Week!
