I had a different WTF post planned originally... with pictures & everything. It was about the absurd blizzard we got last weekend - that would be the THIRD weekend in APRIL!!!
But ... this is so much more entertaining.
Yesterday I arrived home from work - pregnant, in pain & exhausted. Pretty much the usual. So I decided to take a nap. Later to my utter astonishment I learned what my darling husband had been up to during my napage.
Here's a little background info. A week ago Luke purchased a tattoo gun... just for a little hobby. Not my idea of a fun hobby but whatever. So he's been practicing on fake skin thingies that came with it. WELL... yesterday he got the absolutely great idea to tattoo HIMSELF!!!!!!!!! Just on a whim... because what the hell we only have to look @ HIS skin on HIS body for the rest of our lives... & I'm including myself in the looking because I see him on a fairly regular basis:)
So as I get off the phone w/ my parents he chooses to inform me that the reason the spray bottle is on the counter (I thought he used it on the dog) was because of this.... pulls pants down to show me the star that he tattooed on his thigh! REALLY... YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY SERIOUS... WTF!!!!!!!!!! To his credit he did do a good job... looks really nice BUT did you REALLY want a star tattooed on your thigh??? 'cause I sure as hell did not want a star tattooed on your thigh!!!
He is SOOOOOO lucky that I love him:) We have conversed & there are to be no more surprise tattoos on his body @ any time!
By the way... if you're ever on the west coast & want a tattoo... we got ya covered:)
Life is wonder{full} of amazing friends and a super supportive family! Our Marland clan includes daddy {Big L}, mama, little l & little e! Life with two boys is NEVER dull...

We had a LOT of babies around while we were in RI... here's a few pics of the fun stuff we did... baby shower, Liam's b-day & Luke surfing... well maybe that's Jim:) I know I promised new pics... these are new to you though:) I still have to download WA pics...

It's been a while
since my last post. I really wanted to have pics. to post this time but... I am @ work bored out of my gourd so I decided to do a little update lacking pictures. I will try to do another post when I get home tonight with pics.
So our weekend was another eventful one. Our crib has come YAYYYYYYY! So Luke put it together. We washed about 30 loads of baby laundry (I don't know how such little things can amount to so much) you should have seen Luke trying to fold the little onsies OMG - HYSTERICAL his hands were bigger than all the cloth they use to make the darn things:) So I did most if not all of the baby folding. The nursery (it is so weird to not be calling it the guest bedroom anymore - even though there is still a rather large bed still involved in the room - that was fun trying to work around! But we are really glad that we left it in there for all those sleepless nights to come... and all the Grandparents who will be visiting non-stop :) can't wait!!)
We still have to paint the walls... we got the new non-toxic paint @ home depot to prime w/ ... only the bestest & the greenest for baby:) Apparently it does a really good job of covering/containing all bad stuff that's in your previous paint (just in case you were wondering... because we were) so that's a GOOD thing.
We organized our pantry... new baskets to contain stuff... SOOOO NICE! Luke is seriously LOVING this whole nesting thing I've got goin' on:) He can't wait to organize the garage next. hehehe.
ok... that's it for now... I'll be back later w/ a good WTF:)

We are back....
in action! We got back to WA on Tuesday & had a super busy week. Luke went back to work on Wednesday & I ran tons of errands. The most important one being picking up Angie puppy:) She is sooooooooooo good now. I don't know if they drudged her @ the kennel or what but she has been LOW KEY since her return & we likey!!!! Very limited jumping, whining, running in the house (this may be due to the new wood floors that she slides all over:)) Then I went back to work on Thursday & Friday ... it was really nice to see everyone & to know that I was missed while I was gone:)
Today we drove to Tacoma & went to Babies R' Us! GOOD TIMES! We got pretty much everything we need for baby & then some. So tomorrow brings cleaning & organizing... sooooo exciting. OHHHHH I forgot the BEST part... since our vacuum doesn't suck ANYTHING we stopped @ Target & got a new canister vacuum that we already tested & is AWESOME!!!! It's amazing the things that excite me in my old age:)
Pictures to come & as babies room gets put together we'll have plenty of pics of that!
