Dead batteries are pretty good indicators of sllloow business.<br />I am "cleaning house" while I add awesomeness to my pandora station. <br />Last night we came home from a friend's house to find an entire gallon of paint had puked itself out of its container and onto the kitchen floor. Remember when I was talking about those messes that you don't know how to clean up? It was one of those. I eventually found the dust pan to be the most effective tool at scooping up excess paint.The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-67606368316601644972010-03-06T08:13:00.001-08:002010-03-06T08:18:03.354-08:00Mom Lessons - Lesson 1Sometimes there will be messes that you cannot fathom how to begin cleaning up.<br />Cases in point:<br />A very hot, very pregnant, very July in Georgia day teaching children's services at campmeeting. I arrive late, reach in to unstrap my almost 8 month old and lift him out of his seat. A loud, resounding splat greets my ears. There is poop all the way up to his neck. There is poop all the way to his knees. There is so much poop in the seat I cannot set him back down. There is a great pile of poop on the ground. I literally stand there, holding my son a foot out in front of me, mouth agape, totally flummoxed as how to even begin to decontaminate my baby and his surroundings.<br /><br />Baby powder. Everywhere. Frequently. And one time it was calamine lotion. Everywhere. Oh, and neither comes up well with a carpet cleaner. But you should still invest in a carpet cleaner because they do a great job with juices, poop, and other bodily fluids.The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-2317174539225430642010-02-20T17:13:00.000-08:002010-02-20T17:50:44.140-08:00Train of thoughtJimmy is a MUCH better house keeper than me. I'm not sure how that makes me feel as a wife/mother. <br />Even though he's better at it - I MISS MISS MISS the control and experience of doing it and having a hand in everything.<br />As long as we have toilet paper and food (including some junk) I can handle anything.<br />Phillip has a serious connection between his blood sugar and his mood. He MELTS into a whiny mess when he gets hungry - well before he even gets hungry really. I have to consciously feed him every few hours.<br />Selah is still happy go lucky most of the time. A few more tantrums have cropped up since the big 3, but most of the time she just says, "okay Mommy" and moves on.<br />My dog has been the subject of an animal control complaint. The only thing I can think of is she makes other people's dogs bark. She probably poops somewhere since she won't poop in our yard. She used to steal dog toys, but hasn't in a long time. She lives on her chain now. I hate it as much as she does.<br />I am ready to feel spring in my bones. I feel ninety years old with the cold weather. I hate to be cold. I cannot wait to get out of the shower and leisurely dry off without my teeth chattering.The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-31187683065444783762010-02-11T11:01:00.002-08:002010-02-11T11:02:08.355-08:00DoughI am craving cookie dough.

What fun! We had two major bodily fluid/solid incidents with Selah we thought were related to her persistant constipation. We were wrong. A tummy bug followed us home. So far Little Phillip is the only one to have escaped it and I'm still a little nervous every time he hollers my name at night.<br/>Phillip did start school this morning without incident of any kind. He had a great day, had a great time. And was still asleep from nap time when I came to pick him up. He did say the oatmeal they gave him for breakfast made him gag. He did not, of course, say this with words, but gave a vivid demonstration. He is VERY sensitive to food textures. I'm just proud the kid tried it!<br/>Trippy is having a rough go of things this week. Keep him in your prayers. Nothing really new, I think he's just between a rock and a hard place and is frustrated with the slowness of his progress. <br/>Sojourn Tours is picking up some. Praise God! We slowly filling in our financial gaps, and doing our best to trust along the way!<br/>There you go. I hear the water running out of the refridgerator. Got to go.<br/><br/></div>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-19175395001068422432009-08-01T23:03:00.001-07:002009-08-01T23:03:53.190-07:00my biggun<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><img src='http://lh5.ggpht.com/_JfwRrbNVlZ4/SnUsH0J496I/AAAAAAAABAE/8WODGeAJnFw/%5BUNSET%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' style='max-width: 800px;'/><br/><br/></div>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-77896186933104901572009-07-27T10:58:00.000-07:002009-07-27T11:26:42.081-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy-nOmk-LenX_hPJD-9gv_WvI-0IADwQ2Ae50M6XkJYOHAN-Yf8LW4gekqUd_-0l1vK3pU4tKGwDoM54ei7_incvPZr4lHkcxRj9m5zoDOTetwXoD3suz8bkcGc2qNh8vmuVv0VVFp/s1600-h/florida+trip+299.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgy-nOmk-LenX_hPJD-9gv_WvI-0IADwQ2Ae50M6XkJYOHAN-Yf8LW4gekqUd_-0l1vK3pU4tKGwDoM54ei7_incvPZr4lHkcxRj9m5zoDOTetwXoD3suz8bkcGc2qNh8vmuVv0VVFp/s400/florida+trip+299.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363203187076200914" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiARlYKt4mFzeW_oiQHyfJjXqY4B-5frXN_RwWr1Z3fZKu80Xunxngfzdv84kIE0sA4JqgPa31S8gJt8luRwAb9nqrmxJZoFgLeX_9TKHp3QsOUABlx5OiIq29f2Snl9OdnZlPUrWmk/s1600-h/florida+trip+240.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiARlYKt4mFzeW_oiQHyfJjXqY4B-5frXN_RwWr1Z3fZKu80Xunxngfzdv84kIE0sA4JqgPa31S8gJt8luRwAb9nqrmxJZoFgLeX_9TKHp3QsOUABlx5OiIq29f2Snl9OdnZlPUrWmk/s400/florida+trip+240.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363203184402237010" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR54JCR4kCWa46zP6s0soGb_481mktvEzJvxLq8tmfGYpfhH-31yAIj40O7EY5daHgW7slOqHSZ15Vs4yW9QXJJVpPz1YSQxfYWkXiEnQiXjtuFdvIGEmmfCoTjWyZyqj0DbsBqpjA/s1600-h/florida+trip+094.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR54JCR4kCWa46zP6s0soGb_481mktvEzJvxLq8tmfGYpfhH-31yAIj40O7EY5daHgW7slOqHSZ15Vs4yW9QXJJVpPz1YSQxfYWkXiEnQiXjtuFdvIGEmmfCoTjWyZyqj0DbsBqpjA/s400/florida+trip+094.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363203182183157922" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGasOId6ldLpBkN7TKe2r97tGZ25lKI1K6vjqpK91osOVU6b2RxDBwRF32kR3DHYlAVHYYXbUnFzKlATJrqcZO4MvjhwuUvlLZJQ-hatWClZ3g-iNIVyXwqljZMJIDst7Z3uXpwegc/s1600-h/florida+trip+041.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGasOId6ldLpBkN7TKe2r97tGZ25lKI1K6vjqpK91osOVU6b2RxDBwRF32kR3DHYlAVHYYXbUnFzKlATJrqcZO4MvjhwuUvlLZJQ-hatWClZ3g-iNIVyXwqljZMJIDst7Z3uXpwegc/s400/florida+trip+041.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363203175941177634" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3A4Eq3Chryt0Bg0ctixDvyp6Yo57Tk0ASIZ8SFZjus3Q3yGXxTe1ByVOJzPRvz9Y1ewKis5BA69bLK2qFBP9VTm2ODfAOiTur9_D7hLSnc9B_b8M4f3z4H8epk0oxKfp6ruPG7KLg/s1600-h/florida+trip+040.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3A4Eq3Chryt0Bg0ctixDvyp6Yo57Tk0ASIZ8SFZjus3Q3yGXxTe1ByVOJzPRvz9Y1ewKis5BA69bLK2qFBP9VTm2ODfAOiTur9_D7hLSnc9B_b8M4f3z4H8epk0oxKfp6ruPG7KLg/s400/florida+trip+040.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363203170101503554" border="0" /></a>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-342072635470826892009-07-16T07:59:00.000-07:002009-07-16T08:11:32.639-07:00Mom Definitions Contest<span style="font-weight: bold;">Five of my best "momfinitions" I've acquired in the last few years.

There is a great museum there filled with LOTS of Civil War relics and lots of TRAIN info. They have a fantastic kids' wing too, but I was really excited by how interested the little guys were in all the exhibits and not just the kid stuff. </span>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-88072352022668878132009-07-06T15:40:00.001-07:002009-07-06T15:40:22.865-07:00The Fourth<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><img src='http://lh4.ggpht.com/_JfwRrbNVlZ4/SlJ1i576Y_I/AAAAAAAAA9s/R0R_PxZr9Z4/%5BUNSET%5D.jpg?imgmax=800' style='max-width: 800px;'/><br/><br/>We always have a great time in the mountains on the Fourth of July and this year was no exception. We had a late start Friday night because poor Jim worked a 13.5 hour day! He got home and we shoved some food in his mouth and ran on to Blue Ridge. We got there about 10:30, set up the kids' pallet, had a snack and hit the sack. Our guys were up unusually early on Saturday and we were on the river by 11:30. This was Selah's inaugural river ride and she had ZERO apprehension. Phillip enjoyed himself too, although he took longer to relax and enjoy himself. We got home, rinsed off, ate a HUGE meal, took a nap and then headed to the marina for fireworks. Some nice strangers gave us watermelon to eat and someone else gave the kids glow bracelets. Phillip passed the time by searching for the fireworks on Google maps. Funny kid. The show started suddenly, and the noise startled us all. We were VERY close. I was surprised because the kids did not freak out right away. But about two minutes in they'd had enough and the tears began. So I took them to seek shelter under the porch of a little cafe that was a little farther away from the BOOM BOOM. That seemed to ease their concerns enough that we made it through the remainder of the show without having to walk all the way back to the car. I considered that a minor victory. Mom always had to sit in the car with me when I was little, so this was a little better.<br/>We slept in on Sunday and lazed about. (well, the kids lazed about. I packed the car). We went over to Mema's and Pepa's for some barbeque and to pick up our sweet Noel. Thanks Mema and Pepa for doggy sitting!<br/><br/></div>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-59415277856328551392009-07-02T20:33:00.001-07:002009-07-02T20:33:17.709-07:00Grumpy<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><font face='sans-serif'>We are all a little frazzled here at the Hunt household. Jim's enjoying the new job, but it comes with the added stress of training to learn something new in a short period of time. We are glad to be back on day shift, but the schedule swap has proved somewhat more taxing than I had hoped. We are better than we were. My kiddos were sleeping from 2 a.m. to almost 2 p.m. We have shifted to more of a 12 to 10 or 11 schedule with an afternoon nap. I can live with this, but would like to get them moved up to a 10 pm bedtime for the rest of the summer. I have an appointment to try and get Phillip into poor kid preschool next week. I think he will really enjoy it and I think the forced schedule will be good for all of us.<br/>Phillip gave up his pacifier on his own. But that's probably adding to his crankiness. <br/>So, in case I say something ugly or shout or act like a less than graceful lady - please forgive me. I am sleepy. And my ears are tired of hearing my name. Just pass me some chocolate and try again afterwards.<br/></font><br/><br/></div>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-18000216422566404342009-06-23T21:26:00.001-07:002009-06-23T21:29:29.982-07:00Wordless Wednesday<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg37C08Vzy3NU2gVGayafTP58zvRXJ5RFYRWN1Qj5oeVKCBjpyx7gTL1TZzvVD1webn-mmEFipktdJ07XzarpdIDUL72bqtSpnY9FnN3oaok01a8NAIRs1Ayym7LcIeOMOJVYNo6NKJ/s1600-h/FATHERS+DAY+2009+092.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg37C08Vzy3NU2gVGayafTP58zvRXJ5RFYRWN1Qj5oeVKCBjpyx7gTL1TZzvVD1webn-mmEFipktdJ07XzarpdIDUL72bqtSpnY9FnN3oaok01a8NAIRs1Ayym7LcIeOMOJVYNo6NKJ/s400/FATHERS+DAY+2009+092.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5350746202547123810" border="0" /></a>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-29519416780842999422009-06-09T20:08:00.003-07:002009-06-09T20:08:32.413-07:00summer fun<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3610179383/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3323/3610179383_fe5286e19d_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3610179383/">summer fun</a> <br />Originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/carrieanne229/">carrieanne229</a></span><br clear="all" /><p></p>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-5457144701317189882009-06-09T20:08:00.001-07:002009-06-09T20:08:10.796-07:00makin some spray<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3610995938/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2436/3610995938_083f25945a_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3610995938/">makin some spray</a> <br />Originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/carrieanne229/">carrieanne229</a></span><br clear="all" /><p></p>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-51415581171333941372009-06-09T20:07:00.001-07:002009-06-09T20:07:39.802-07:00selah audrie anniston mess<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3610175613/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3617/3610175613_472abbd5e2_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3610175613/">selah audrie anniston mess</a> <br />Originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/carrieanne229/">carrieanne229</a></span><br clear="all" /><p></p>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-18292413757708161862009-06-09T07:24:00.001-07:002009-06-09T07:24:22.379-07:00phillip - mid moment<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3611000134/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3364/3611000134_9673644df4_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/carrieanne229/3611000134/">phillip - mid moment</a> <br />Originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/carrieanne229/">carrieanne229</a></span><br clear="all" /><p></p>The Huntshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13225996194562444228noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596701252070947692.post-83375341803866317022009-06-05T23:07:00.000-07:002009-06-05T23:18:56.589-07:00VBS FinaleWe had so much fun this week at Concord Baptist's VBS.
