Why Is SBTB So Awesome?

Saved By The Bell rocks! I went ahead and stole this from Mindi's blog.. Check out this video I laughed pretty hard, and you will too.

more eli pictures

Saturday we took pictures of Eli for his baby announcement. I ended up using the chair one, but here are a few others I liked.

on a side note... does anyone else see the resemblance between these 2?

Eli is finally here!

Eli is finally here! Hooray. On Thursday night around 5pm my water broke and by 5:47am he was here! We had to wait for the Daddy to drive home from TJ's Wedding in SLC but after he arrived around midnight we cranked the petocin and got an epidural and the rest is history.
Owen is being super cute with his little brother and I couldn't be more thrilled to not be pregnant anymore. We came home from the hospital last night around 8pm and we are now trying to catch up on sleep and finally get over our colds. He is a perfect little baby, we think he looked like a little Eskimo, especially right after he was born cause he was pretty swollen. All in all we couldn't be more thrilled, grateful and blessed that we have a new beautiful, healthy baby boy in our family.

Owen's Shiner

Last night while at my dad's Owen decided to spin in circles (one of his favorite pass times) He got pretty dizzy, so much so that he fell eye first into the fireplace. Check out that shiner! I don't think Spencer has ever has a black eye that impressive. Even with all his fist fights in high school, and even during his recent martial arts training. Let's hope it heals before he comes to visit the new baby at the hospital. Otherwise CPS may not let me take either of them home.

Cleaning Frenzy

Warning! Extremely Fascinating story below.....

Before
(not my shower but same idea)


After

When we bought our house almost 2 years ago I was amazed at how clean the previous owner had kept everything. Everything except the master bathroom shower that is. The caulk around the bottom of the shower was black especially in the corners. Shortly after we moved in I scrapped out all the caulk with a razor blade and then completely re caulked the floor, which took forever. I thought everything was great until 2 weeks later when the floor looked almost as bad as it did before I did anything. Anyway long story short I finally found this helpful advice. The cleaning process took a really long time. You start by cleaning the shower like normal. You then cover the shower in paper towels drenched in vinegar, and let it sit for a hours, and then you do the same thing with paper towels and bleach to get all the mess that is deep under the caulk. I am a little bummed that I didn't take before and after shots because my shower looks awesome! This did take super long and my house officially stinks like bleach and vinegar. The whole thing is pointless if you don't keep the mildew from coming back. The way to do this is to keep your shower clean and dry, so no shutting the shower door anymore. I just read what I wrote, and this is a pretty boring entry. But who knows... Maybe someone cares?
