What A Night
Loren and the band had a show at Loren and Cindy's house and we had a blast. Loren played all our favorite songs and Uncle Rob came up from California.

Start To Finish
I know that every one has heard me gush about how talented my photo sister is, but she is and I just can't help but share some more about her and what she can and do every time I want pictures of my babies.
She has had this picture in her head for some time now and I'm just happy that I was able to help.
So you all have seen the babies that look like flowers right? Well now my baby looks like one to and the head band with the big flowers on them. I've got pictures of my baby with one on to. Thanks Jenn we always have so much fun with you and you always do such a good job.
And the hat finished
The finished headbands
The models
And the end results all thank to My sister.

Why Why Why!
Three out of my four siblings sleep walk or talk in their sleep or some freaky combo of the two. Jeff will mutter something in his sleep on occasion but its not extreme in any way and in no way noteworthy. I do not do either and I thought when my older siblings moved out and I left home that was all behind me. Boy was I wrong.
Both of my older kids have what I can only describe as night terrors. Its this blood curdling screaming for mommy in the middle of the night and Jackson also walks in his sleep.
For example, I was sitting at the computer the other night (shocker, I know) and I here Jacks down the hall yell for me a couple of times. I think to myself 'He's OK just give him a minute and it will be fine'. Then I here What sounds like he's struggling and trying to rip something apart. So I go in to his room and in true Aunt Becky fashion he's standing at the window trying to rip the curtain out of the wall.
I can handle the screaming I can also handle the walking zombie style around the house in the middle of the night muttering to himself incoherently but I don't think I'm going to deal well with a child that could potentially call the cops in his sleep because of an imaginary intruder. I'm just saying.
Why! I don't want to have him coming in to my room in the early hours of the morning and yelling at me that he's going to be late for school. I never did that. Why! I don't want to bolt his window so he doesn't try climbing out of it while he's sleeping.
So to those of you that have or have had this problem what do you suggest I do? I'll take suggestions from the offenders and offendies alike.

Not rude
OK so here's how it is . I know that I am flighty, irresponsible, jealous,suspicious, inconsiderate,I have no conversation filter and I am a all around shiny penny type. But the one thing I am not is rude. Not ever. Not intentionally, well that is unless you're a stranger and you're trying to tell me what to do with my kids or something. I just won't have that. I don't know what it is maybe it's just me. But when I'm nine months pregnant with the raging pregnancy hormones and Jackson is being overly clingy and some stranger starts yelling at me how to take care of my kid I'm yelling right back. In retrospect maybe not the best thing to do but whatever that's not what I'm talking about this time.
So here's the story. I was in Target the other day and some people were blocking the aisle so I quietly waited. That's just how I am. No need to say anything, I'm in no hurry. After everyone moves I walk past and decide that I actually didn't want to go that way and wanted to turn. The one couple with a child had stopped and their cart was somewhat blocking my path but I could see that I would be able to get through without bothering any one. So that's what I did and I went on my way. This MAN says "J**** C****** can't you just say excuse me B****."
My whole body seized and I was so ready to go full blown Roy on him but in that instant I had one of those moments where you just become calm. First I thought 'Are you kidding me?' Then I thought I'm not sinking to your level. Then it was that poor woman and kid I would be so embarrassed if I were her and I was inclined to say something to that effect. I'm not going to lie. I also was thinking 'what trash'. But then I thought 'this person no mater how rude, has the same divine calling as I and for whatever reason is not happy with himself and doesn't know who he is so how can he possibly know who I am'. Don't get me wrong I did call my sister and had one of those 'Oh my gosh no he didn't' moments. But that was just me blowing the whole thing off.
So as you can see Not Rude. Not even if you are.
