Funniest Night Ever.

Tim is quite the character while he sleeps. Not only does he sleep with his eyes open but he mumbles, talks, moves, and now.. falls.

Last night I had to finish homework before going to bed. Tim had fallen asleep already, so finally I got ready for bed while I noticed Tim laying on his tummy and sat up on his elbows talking over the bed about the girls, "what and the girls, no. you.. girls. the. girls."

So I'm laughing hysterically. Cute boy.


I get into bed, push him over [bed hog] and get comfy.

The night is dead silent, we're both asleep when suddenly

BOOM

I jump up! What the! Where is tim??

I hear "ooow"

I see him on the ground, and again hysterically laughing I ask if he's ok.. he says yes, I kiss it better and we go back to bed.

The next morning he text me and asked if he fell off the bed. I told him the story.

When he got home his head was SWOLLEN. He's got a huge knot on his noggin.

That silly boy. No worries, I got him ice for his head and sweets for his tummy. He ate 3 donuts, chocolate cake, chocolate covered almonds, chocolate covered pomegranates, and a banana.
ALL BETTER!




Pictures Pictures Pictures.

Tea time with the cat ladies, crazy people, tiny man,business women, little bopeeeep.

Oh how wonderful it is to be an only girl. I learned how to get dirty, scratched my knees, fish, hunt, spit, fight, all the wonderful things boys do, I've done it!

Noooow..

I GET TO LEARN HOW TO BE A GIRL!!

Good news right?

Not only do I have 3 brothers, but now I have 4 SISTERS.

As a little girl I would dream of tea parties, after the dirt of course, but my brothers would deny me the right of girl time

[side story: when sam (the youngest) was little I use to dress him up and put make up on him and butterfly clips in his hair, then I would present him as my little sister Samantha. Then my father would order him to take that off and be a boy again. Shucks.]

Two years ago I finally got my first sister! Like Christmas! We do lunch, and shopping, and of course girl talk.

Two months ago I got three more sister. We make flowers for our hair, do lunch, go shopping, and HAVE TEA PARTIES! YES!!

so, if your happy and you know it.. CLAP YO HANDS!

[pictures to come. they wouldnt post! DUMB!]

IF YOUR HAPPY AND YOU KNOW IT CLAP YOU HANDS

*CLAP-CLAP*

So I've noticed I sing this almost everyday. It makes me laugh. I think it all started when I had this client at work that loved when I sang itsy bitsy spider, and hokey pokey. Then suddenly I would start singing "If your happy and you know if clap your hands!!" and ya know what...

CLAP CLAP!

Everytime.


I love it.

I love my tim, I love my house, I love my family, I love MY WHOLE LIFE! I can do anything good!!

Tim does this funny thing that whenever he does anything wrong he says "saa-weee" in this funny voice and it makes me laugh=not mad! So it works!

So, If your happy and you know it.. CLAP YOUR HANDS!

Mr, Housewife

Our blog is most definitely going to turn into the funny things Tim and I mess up on as we experience this marital journey.

Every other Saturday I have to work ALLLL DAY.

So Tim steps in as Mr. Housewife, after basketball of course.

This week particularly I asked Tim to do a few chores around the house while I was at work, chores include: bathrooms & Laundry.

simple right?

Tim did a wonderful job of taking out the trash, wiping the sinks and toilets down, and to my surprise was working on two loads of laundry!

Super husband right!? of course!

Well this sweet boy hasn't done much laundry through out his life, he was blessed with a sweet mother that helped him in this area.

When I got home Tim and I were relaxing in the guest room watching T.V, he jumps up and says he needs to put the clothes in the dryer. LOVE HIM.
Then from the hall I hear:

" Honey................ Uhm... I put a yellow shirt in with the whites.. and now they're kinda yellow."


"haha oh... thats ok honey. Why did you do that?"


" isnt that what your suppose to do?"

"no honey.. whites are all by there lonesome.... put the whites back in the washer with some bleach! it'll be ok!"

So when the washer buzzer goes off I open it up to put them in the dryer, and I discover Tim's plaid shorts and a colored hand towel.

He didn't realize those were in there and luckily no damage was done. Although my whites are now a light yellow I'm soo grateful for this boy.

"If at first you don't succeed.. try, try, AGAIN!"

Suzie, wait no.. Amy Homemaker!

WHO?
I suppose I have grown up being the motherly type, watching after all these boys of course, but who knew I would be the next Martha Stewart. (negative on the crime part)

I Amy Lee Berry(whoops) VanCapelle love to cook, clean, organize, bake, shop and care for my husband. Lets not forget I keep him in line, I work two jobs, and do all my school work.

I take pride in looking in the cook books, cutting coupons and keeping the house clean.
Funny Story
Last week I had the day off of work so I wanted to make something little complicated that I knew Tim would enjoy. So I searched my cook books and found a delectable pot roast recipe, I made my shopping list and took off.

Side Story:
I've only ever had a pot roast as a little girl at my grandparents house, I know nothing about them or even what type of meat I need.

So at the grocery store I ask the butcher where the pot roast is (?) he points me in a general meat direction. Meat is expensive! And huge for a family of two! So I picked the smallest which in turn is the cheapest, package that had the word roast on it :) good to go!

At home I start it in the crockpot, seasoning to perfection! I chopped all the veggies and seasoned them knowing they were going to be delicious. I let them cook for a little while, as I started on dessert. Graham cracker filled pie tin with 1 layer)whipped cream,2) fresh fruit, 3)vanilla pudding, topped with more whipped cream and fresh fruit. PERFECT


As the meat is cooking its staying really pink, I start on the rolls HAND KNEADING the dough, setting aside to rise.


Roast-still pink.. hmm..


Rolls go in, Husband comes home.


>Roast.. STILL PINK?!


hmm. FHE first, dinner after.


After: ROAST STILL PINK?!

Husband hungry/ Wife Frustrated.


Husband: Its ok honey, let just eat it! I like it that way!


ok...


Turns out..


IT WAS CORNED BEEF.



Way to go Martha Stewart. looks like my career is OVER.


Hahaha, oh well. I'm new here.

He sleeps while I write..

Wow, waking up at 4:50am Mon-Fri sucks. Me? Oh heavens no. My husband. That sweet boy will try to stay awake and talk to me but he'll either gaze blankly with his blood shot eyes or sit with his mouth open and body asleep. Poor boy.. Poor hard working boy.

Last night I walked him to bed and as he belly flops completely sprawled on the bed he says "your a life saver" haha of course in the morning he didn't remember a thing.

Tonight, we were laying in bed and I was telling him a funny story, I laughed at the end and he snored. I shook his hand, "Tim? Tim!?"
..........
...........
...............
...................
"Amy! when are we going there? "

hahah oh tim. Go to sleep. I love you. The weekend will be wonderful.
