Here we go again!

A new adventure is just starting! And all of you get to experience it with me! You will get to see a new side of mommy going crazy. You will get to truly see me go crazy! You will get to also experience joy with me. You may also laugh and cry with me! We will be welcoming a new little baby into our home sometime in April. So let this crazy out of control adventure begin!

We are really excited! It is a little different from the last time that I found out that I was pregnant. It was such a shock that it took a few days to really be excited. I usually hate being pregnant. I hate being out of control of my body and of my emotions. This time I am hoping that it is a little better, and that I can enjoy it a little more. It will be my last time being pregnant. No more for us, three is a good number.

So wish me luck because with two other young kids, things could get really interesting!

Oh yea and pictures from Idaho are coming soon. They were a little bit delayed because I wanted to share this good news with everyone.

Sleepy Peeing

My husband and I were laying in bed watching a little TV before we went to sleep last night. My little dude had been asleep for hours, but I started to hear his little sleepy shuffle. He shuffled into our room and headed strait for the bathroom. He gets up in the middle of the night almost every night to use our bathroom, but usually he comes in crying that he has to go pee. He turns on the light and crys again that he needs help. (He doesn't but I guess in the middle of the night anyone can be needy.) Then he usually wants to cuddle to put him back to sleep. Well last night he didn't do any of that. He just did his little sleepy shuffle into our bathroom, not saying a word. He dropped his drawers and started to pee. Then I noticed that he hadn't turned on the light. He was peeing in the dark. I was grateful that he was actually in the bathroom, but afraid of what I was going to find when he was done. The funny part about this story is that he was so sound asleep still that as he walked out of the bathroom he turned on the light and then went right to bed. My hubby and I where laughing so hard. Little kids should not be peeing in the dark. I have heard of little boys sleep peeing and going somewhere like in the boots that where in the hallway closet. (Yea Dad, all I could think about last night was that story.) I am very glad that he didn't do something like that. It is still funny that he didn't even wake up to go. Silly little dude.

Our trip to Idaho was tons of fun. I have some pictures that I will post soon. Maybe tomorrow. Have a great Thursday everyone!

Getting out of dodge!

Just so all of you know that there are TWO holidays in July! Independence day, and Pioneer Day. Ok so not everyone celebrates Pioneer Day, but it is a big holiday here in Utah. Living in Utah my entire life I sometimes forget that Pioneer Day isn't a national holiday. When we were making plans for going to my father in law's ranch this weekend IN IDAHO I actually asked my husband where we were going to see fireworks there. He looked at me like I was crazy, then said "Idaho doesn't celebrate the day the pioneers came to Utah, DUH!" I had to laugh, it so Utahn of me to think that any other state would celebrate a Utah state holiday. Oh boy!

Well since my husband works for a bank and gets bankers holiday's off, we have along weekend to play. He has taken off work today and we will be driving to Idaho to play on the boat, ride horses, ride on the 4 wheeler, and anything else that may come up.(Except for watching fireworks!) I can't wait! The 4 1/2 hour car ride might not be the best because the kids broke the portable dvd player. So wish me luck! And I would like to be the first to wish all of you a Happy Pioneer Day!

Doomed from Daybreak

We actually got off the couch today. It was the hottest day all year and I decide to actually try and get my house clean. Well, I put in a good effort anyway. If I didn't have to stop to get the stuck Geo Trax out of my little princess' hair, then to stop and see why the kids were covered in black ashes (it was from the fire pit in the back yard. They had it ALL over the place) Then I had to fix the broken window covering that my little princess broke. But wait that isn't it. After being covered in ash my little princess decides that she needed to get cleaned up. So she heads to her room and takes everything off! Including her diaper. The next thing I know little dude is yelling "MOM SHE PEED ON THE CARPET!" So I cleaned that up, and put her in her second bath of the day. Got her all cleaned up then a few hours later she dumped a pickle jar that was full of water (my son is trying to make his grow creatures grow) all over her clean clothes and all over the floor. My house would be really clean if it weren't for all the interruptions. I am not sure who had a worse day, her or me?

Somehow, I knew that when I caught a glimpse of the sun rising up over the mountains this morning, it was going to be the best my day was going to get. Too bad it was at 6:00 AM!

Maybe tomorrow will be better.

Just a few thoughts

About a month ago I posted these pictures of my kids playing in the pool with their cousins. I got a really funny message from Silly Hilly "It's so funny to see those b/c when I think of Utah, I think of snooooow! Beautiful, white snow. :-)" She is right, Utah is known for all the awesome snow, but in the summer I remember that we are living in the desert. It doesn't usually get over 100, but the last few days it has been 102 or more. YUCK! It makes it really hard to do anything! My house is a mess because the last thing that I want to do is clean when it is freaking hot. I don't want to take the kids outside because it is too hot. I don't want to cook, so we have been eating nothing but junk. I feel that as a mother I have been really lazy. The kids have noticed, they have been SO bad. So if anyone has any fun summer activities please give me ideas! We can use them around here! The TV needs a rest.

Friday night we did take the kids camping for the night. It was really fun. We went with some people from our church. It was a really fun time. We even took the kids on a hike. They thought it was great, and they were so tired after that it made for a nice little break when they took a long nap.

In other news, my husband's great-grandma passed away. I know that she was really old, but I have some funny memories of her. She will be missed. We will be heading to Idaho next week for the funeral. We were planning on going anyway for a little vacation to the ranch. So I will be happy to be able to make it over to say good bye before she is buried, and have a little fun there too.

Well, we are heading off to some friend's house for a BBQ. I hope you all enjoy for extra hot Sunday!

Growing up

I don't remember ever really liking pink when I was younger. I don't remember wearing dresses except for on Sunday's but I hated it. When I went on my first date I had no makeup on and I wore a long t-shirt with really baggy pants. Not to mention the dog chain that I wore around my neck. When my mom and I shopped for my wedding dress I was looking for something that didn't have any bows, ruffles, flowers, lace, and heaven forbid if it "puffed" anywhere. One lady that was trying to help us even asked my mom if she ever put a bow in my hair because I was looking for something "not girly". My mom kindly said "no, because she never liked them." She is right! I have never really liked anything girly.

As I get older though, I find myself needing to look "girly" and wearing makeup, and even doing my hair. I do have pink in my wardrobe and I wear it often. I feel beautiful, like a woman. I even regret not taking better care of myself while growing up. I guess this is all about getting older and finding the real me. Not the "me" that thinks wearing baggy clothes and chains is the perfect way to express yourself. ( What does that even express??? Hummm?)

In the last 8 years I have been a little more open to trying new "girly" things. I feel that I have come a long way. No more chains, baggy clothes, I own a few pink shirts, and I even wear dresses. Some times even when I don't have to. There was one venture that I was a little scared to take. One that I have stayed clear of my entire life. Until last night. I would like to announce to the world (and those that know me best, because they will laugh) that I have now entered the "girly" world that I have been avoiding most of my life. Last night I bought my first pair of High Heel Shoes! Yes, I know, a really big step! (Ha! Ha! No pun intended!)

The best part about this experience isn't that they are extremely cute, or that I am finally a woman. It is the comment that my little dude said to me last night. I was trying to practice walking in them so if I was going to break my ankle it wasn't going to be in public! While pacing around the house I hear my 3 year old son say "See mommy, you CAN do it!" He is the best isn't he?

So congratulations to me for finally being a women and wanting to be girly!

Mazatlan Mexico Trip Part 2

Taking a Siesta,
originally uploaded by weeksphotos.

Well I was finaly able to put more pictures online from our trip. Go check out the slide show. Pretty much all of them are of us just playing in the water or hanging out on the beach. That is what we did most of the time. My feet got pretty beat up from a rope that got caught between my toes when a wave came in. It sucked, but hey I have cute flip flops on in the picture. I hope you all enjoy!

The 4th of July!

I hope that all of you had a fun, happy, sunny 4th of July! Our day was pretty good, but it rained for most of the day. So here is how we spent our afternoon.


The evening was great! We went to some friend's house and had a little BBQ in the rainy weather. Then played some really fun games inside. We were planing on going to see a firework show that was close by, but it was still raining. So we bought some to light at our friends house. The kids had a great time, and so did we.

My memories of the 4th of July have always been playing in the back yard while hamburgers cook on the grill, or of going to our cabin. Watching parades then going to the park for fireworks. I don't remember one time that it rained. For my kids sake (and the fact that it was fun) I hope that my kids remember the time that it poured rain all afternoon and mom and dad took them outside to dance and play in the puddles.

Where I am From

Thanks to 8 hours for the tip on this writing exercise. Everyone should try it. I caught myself thinking about things and people that I haven't thought of in a long time.

Where I am From.

I am from 5 cent slot machine, from Ironport and Cherry and Macintosh.
I am from Fruit trees in the back yard. Family snowmobiling trips and the smell of Sunday dinner

I am from the home grown pumpkins, wild roses and tulips in the front yard.

I am from singing “Tiny Angels” on Christmas eve and faithful and unwavering, from Aunt Clarece and two Uncle Rogers and Eckersell.

I am from the making meals for everyone and tickle attacks.

From remember who you are and your family is more important than your friends.

I am from Faithful Mormon falling away, then finding myself again.

I'm from West Jordan and Rigby, Omelets and corned beef hash.

From the Senator and Mortician that lived in a Funeral Home, the owning and fling an airplane, the married for over 60 years.

I am from the old boxes in my parents basement that look and smell old but make me very proud every time I see them.

Antenna Saga

The day after Thanksgiving last year, I had a family photo shoot for someone that my husband works with. We were going up the canyon to get pictures of them in the snow. (For a family that is from California, this was going to be pretty cool) We decided that since my husband knew the family he would take the kids sledding while I took pictures. It had been snowing there all night and there was about a foot and a half of fresh powder to play in. It was a fun photo shoot, but everyone was tired, wet and cold by the end of the afternoon. It was starting to snow too. We started packing up our gear in the jeep and getting the snow clothes off of the kids. In the few minutes that it took to get little dude undressed and in his car seat, my little princess climbed into the front seat and locked the door right after we had closed it. This was not good since the keys were sitting in the cup holder so they wouldn't get lost in the snow.
Do you ever have moments in your life where time really does stand still and you think to yourself, that really didn't just happen? Then it hits you like a ton of bricks that your kids are now locked in the car by themselves. While you are standing out in the cold, up a canyon, it is getting dark, and starting to snow pretty dang hard. What a moment! We kept trying to get her to unlock the doors, but she didn't understand. Every time we would yell through the window to "push up" she would laugh and wave like it was some sort of game. We tried everything to get into the car. There really wasn't many people in the canyon at this point because no one is crazy enough in Utah to hang out in a small canyon when it is snowing pretty hard and getting dark. The family that I had just taken their pictures did stay and try to help, but we were still clueless as to what to do. About an hour or more after endless tries, someone had the idea to take the antenna off of the jeep and see if we could pry the door open enough to get it in there and unlock the door. It sounded like a good idea so we found a tool, and went for it. I think that after a half an hour and very close to a nervous break down I said something to my husband that went something like "If we can't get the blankety-blank thing open soon, we are going to call the police to get our kids out of there." About five minutes after saying that about 3 cops show up and right as they were pulling up "CLICK" the door came unlocked! What a blessing! As we were leaving we actually saw about 7 cops coming up the canyon. I still have no idea how they knew that we were up there, or who called, but Utah doesn't take the safety of kids lightly.
Since that day we have been driving around with a VERY bent antenna on our jeep. Every time I see it I think that it is totally funny because I can picture this innocent face smiling and waving through the window and laughing that mommy and daddy were locked out.
The saga of our antenna isn't over yet though. A few weeks ago we were in a drive through car wash, and the spinner thing got caught on the antenna (which before then has been bent back a little so it didn't look too bad). It pulled up the fender and bent the antenna even more before the car wash stopped. We got out and couldn't believe that had just happened. We made a complaint with the place that we were at. They said that they will have to look into it and get back with us because the sign says that no jeeps are allowed in the car wash and that you are supposed to take off your antenna before going in. WHAT THE...! This didn't make me very happy to hear, it sounds ridiculous. Well the did get back to us and said they might fix it and to get some estimates on how much it will cost them to fix it. So we did that. It is going to cost over $500.00 to fix! Crazy huh!?
Good thing that the whole car wash thing happened. If I had to pay for a new antenna on my own I would have to kill my little princess instead of laugh every time I think about her locking us out.

Girls. Girls. Girls. oh and two more Girls

I hosted a baby shower at my house last night. It was for a friend that already has two girls, but she is having twins, girls. Lots of girls. It was really fun, we had about 20 ladies come so it was really nice to sit outside and visit.

Hosting anything really makes me tired. There is always so much to do. You wouldn't believe what I can get done in a short amount of time though. In one hour, I vacuumed my floors, swept and mopped my floors, did a load of dishes, put out balloons, got dressed, put make up on, did my hair, set out chairs, wrapped a gift, and made rice crispy treats. It was a lot of work but really worth it! I told my husband that I am so tired that I am going to do nothing today. So he better not complain if he comes home and I am still in my pj's sitting on the couch.

In other news, my little dude is doing awesome in his swimming lessons. I found out that he gets to move onto the next class. This is great since he had to repeat his last class. He is so full of energy and always wants to be outside. Which is fine with me. Anything to not have him run a muck inside.

My little princess is really jealous that she isn't in swimming lessons, but loves to go and watch. She loves to play outside too, but she gets more dirty than her brother. I think the she just likes the bath. One thing about her lately is that she has been learning how to sing more songs. She was singing at the store the other day and some lady stopped just to tell her she was singing a beautiful song. It was really funny. She can sing her ABC's really well though.

My husband has been working really hard. At work and at home. He is always busy, but has a little helper everywhere he goes. Little Dude love to be like daddy and do what daddy does. We are trying to find time to go camping so that we can have some more fun family time. He has worked really hard in the yard to make is as beautiful as it is, and we got a lot of compliments on it last night! Thanks for all your hard work hubby!

With me I am trying to figure out if I want and can afford a new camera. I don't mind the one that I have, but I have really been wanting a Canon 30D lately. I love the pictures that I have taken with it, I think that it works better for the way that I take pictures. It is about double of what my camera is worth though. It is a big investment, but I think that it will take my talent to a new level. We will have to see though.

And for the birds, (I just have to add this because I think that it is funny) As some of you may or may not know, I have two birds. Pavo, which mean turkey in Spanish, and Pollo, which means chicken in Spanish. Yes our birds are called chicken and turkey. They have been put through a lot in the past. But I think that the kids are trying to make up for it. The other day I found that one of the kids had tried to feed them a chicken nugget. Every time I think that someone is trying to feed my bird Chicken, chicken it makes me laugh. Is it wrong to feed a chicken chicken? Ha Ha Ha (dumb story, but really I think that it is funny!)

Mazatlan, Mexico Trip Part 1

Mexico was a blast! After the crazy year that we had last year we really needed some time to be alone and have a good time. We went with our friends that just had a baby and really needed some time alone too. They are like family to us and are always really good company. We all had an awesome time.

I want to share stories and pictures so I will give you the story and you will have to check out the slide show to see the pictures.

As soon as we got there we had to go swimming in the ocean. It was fun, I haven't been in to the ocean since I was a little kid. The water was surprisingly warm, and tastes really nasty! We worked up an appetite so we got dressed and headed to Senior Frogs for dinner. What a fun place! They made all of us these insane balloon hats. The waiter took our picture, you can tell that we were having a great time already.

The next day we went on a tour of the resort that we were staying at. It sounds really boring, but we got to eat breakfast in a really neat restaurant that had a great view of the beach. And they gave us some free tickets for activities. The place that we stayed was really nice. It was right on the beach, and every meal you would eat outside. Our room was nicer than my house. It had a balcony that over looked the ocean (see view in slide show) with a hot tub on it. The room actually had two bedrooms, three bathrooms, a sauna, a kitchen, a dining room, and a family room with a huge flat screen TV. Really, I could have lived there! They had two pools that were so much fun! We decided that we liked swimming at night so we would go out there and jump off the rock cliff and go down the water slide when all the kids were gone.

We pretty much just played in the water the rest of that afternoon. I don't have very many pictures of that because we went body boarding, kayaking, and jet skiing. It was blast! That night we decided to hit the town and do a little shopping. We had to take these taxis around that really are no bigger than a golf cart. They are fun, but I am convinced that there isn't a single rule in driving there. SCARY!

On Sunday we took a boat tour. We went around Stone Island that had pirate caves in it. It was really neat, but the best part was just around the corner. When we started heading to the island that we were going to spend the day at, the captain saw some dolphins jumping out of the water. I have always loved dolphins. This was something that I have wanted to see my entire life. The captain wanted to get a little closer so he went a little off the path so that we could see them. Well, we sure did get to see them! There were about 20 in the front of the boat where we could see them, then there were tons more on each side of the boat. They swam with us a really long time. They were jumping out of the water and it looked like they were trying to play. It was a really neat thing to see. It made me sea sick though. So the rest of the day my stomach was a little upset, but I was still able to enjoy the private beach that we sailed out to. I even tried snorkeling. That was actually pretty cool. We some some really pretty coral and fish.

After the boat ride I was really beat! I was sore from jet skiing the day before and still a little sick to my stomach. So my friend and I went and got a massage. Can I just say that everyone needs to get a massage on vacation! It was so nice and relaxing. Which made me want to just sleep when we got back. Even though our room was really nice and I could have stayed there the entire time, I also wanted to get out. But before we went to dinner we had to check out the breath taking sunset from our balcony. Wow!

Well, I better rap it up for the first part of our trip. I have more stories and pictures, but it might have to wait. I used up all my space on flickr. Stay tuned for more fun.

Tired

We got back in town from Mazatlan, Mexico late last night. I am pretty tired so I am not going to post anything about the trip until another day. I just thought I would let you all know where I have been. I haven't dropped off the planet or anything. I was just getting some much needed vacationing time with my hubby. I can't wait to share with you all the fun things that we did and saw. Oh lets not forget the pictures! We got some really fun pictures! So check back in a couple days and I will have something to share.

A fun day for the kids

Today was a very fun day. The kids went swimming in the back yard while I babysat my nieces. They had a picnic and had some nice summer treats. Check out the slide show of all the fun pictures of them playing.

As a Child?

My father found this and called me just to share it with me. He says that it reminds him of me. It is pretty funny, and exactly how I feel! So I have to share it with you guys.

As a Child?
By Sterling D. Allan

Now that I have a child of my own, sometimes I have to wonder about the scriptures that say we should "become as a child, meek, submissive..."What kind of children are we talking about? That doesn't describe my little 8.5-month-old guy. He's always into mischief, and does not comprehend the word "no." I wouldn't characterize him as "submissive," not in the least. Meek? Nah, I don't think so. He has an independent streak that wont quit. So when the Lord says we are to become as a child, does it mean we are to throw temper tantrums, hit each other, grab things away from one another, pull one prank after another, be oblivious to logic or reasoning, poop in our pants, burp at will, throw our food all over the place, leave messes everywhere we go, indiscriminately rip pages out of important books, clog the sewer with toilet paper, pull flowers up by their roots, wine and cry until we get our way (and your guess is as good as mine as to what that may actually be). Just what did the Lord have in mind? Becoming as a child doesn't sound very hard; in fact it sounds like a lot of fun -- until Dad comes home!

Here I am!

It has been forever since I have posted. I actually haven't been all that busy, I just haven't known what to write. So today, I am just going to post random things.

My little dude's soccer games are over. I am really proud of him, and happy that he had so much fun. I will post pictures soon I promise. He did get a little trophy that he sleeps with every night. Silly kid. He started swimming lessons the other day, and LOVES it! He wants to go everyday!

My little lady has been more sassy than ever. She is living up to every moment of being two. She loves to be barefoot and playing outside. She loves dirt, being naked and anything sticky. Not always at the same time, but it has happened before. She can't stay clean for longer than about 20 minutes. I asked her tonight after her bath if she likes to be clean or dirty. She quickly said dirty! Not a surprise. We have broken her of the binky and we are so proud of her. It has been more than a month, and she is doing great! She doesn't even ask for it anymore! After we get back from Mexico we will start potty training her. She is so ready when she tells me every time that she goes, and I even catch her sitting on the potty all by herself. Oh have I mentioned that she is VERY independent? Yea, she thinks she will be well on her way to getting a job and moving out at the age of 5.

We have been working really hard in the yard. It is now all done. We put a patio in front of the pond so we can sit out there and enjoy it! It looks really nice, and kudos to the husband for his hard work and really long hours.

Speaking of the husband, he has been asked to apply for a position at work that will be giving him a promotion. I am very proud of him. He works hard, and deserves it! It isn't a guarantee so I hope that he gets the job. No more working on Saturdays, and LOTS more money!

As for me, I am on cloud nine tonight. I went on a photo shoot today, that was lots of fun, and the pictures turned out awesome! It was a great location and I got to use the insane new lens! (I love that thing!) I am also getting very excited for my trip to Mexico. Only a few more weeks! It will be a blast, and I really can't wait!

Well that is what is going on with all of us! I hope that I didn't bore all of you! I promise a good post coming up. I have been working on a list of silly things that my kids say part 2! I wonder where they get some of these things!

Summertime Fun

Summertime Fun,
originally uploaded by weeksphotos.

Well, I thought that it was about time to post some more pictures. With all the wedding and family pictures that I have been doing, I forget to take some of my kids. On Saturday I was hanging out with my friend that I do all the wedding photography with and we were playing with her new lens. (Check out this insane new lens that she got!) We got some great pictures of my kids. They were playing really hard so it was really fun to stand back (with this lens you can get WAY back) and snap a few shots while they play.

I have updated my flickr account with some new pictures so you can go check it out. There are a few of my Mother's Day gifts and what the BIG hole in my back yard turned out to be. (Remember the bobcat getting stuck? Oh yea, who can forget!)

Oh yay!

I just thought I would share a little bit of info that I found out last night. This made me so happy! Chris Daughtry that just got kicked off of American Idol might be the lead singer in the band Fuel! This is very cool news! I love Chris and I love Fuel! See we all knew that he would come out on top! Way to go Chris!

Facing a big fear and almost dying - kind of

They other day I had to go to the dentist to have some work done. This is never fun since I have had a fear of the dentist for as long as I can remember. I have been going to the same dentist my entire life. He is a great guy and a great dentist. This time I decided that I was going to see a new dentist because he was closer and also because he is a newer dentist. I have been having some pain on one of my teeth for over three years that my other dentist couldn't explain. I figured it was time to maybe see if a dentist with new technology could find something wrong. Well he did, and I had to have a 3 hour appointment to fix it. All last week, I was really scared. I really hate the dentist, but I knew that I needed to get it done. My husband kept telling me that I should get the nitrous oxide gas to help me feel better about it. I hadn't had it since I was a kid so I thought that he had a good point. So I get there on Wednesday totally scared, but excited to know that the nitrous was going to make it all better.

The nurse gets me all hooked up with a movie (Harry Potter 4) with the ear phones and the goggles to protect my eyes, and the nitrous over my nose. She turns on the gas to get me a little less scared for the shots that are to come. She leaves me to sit and breath in this stuff and to give me a few minutes to settle down. When she came back in I was so high. I have never done drugs before, but I must say that I now understand why people do them. (That was a really bad comment, but very true.) I told the dentist, just joking around might I add, that he needs to alert my husband that there is a problem if I start asking to come in once a week. I was feeling great! My kids were at the sitter, I was laying there high as a kite, and I was watching Harry Potter without any interruptions. It was great. I even started to feel a little sleepy.

They put that crazy rubber thing in my mouth and were off to work. I even started off to sleep. I was in between sleep and drugged and I started to have a dream. I was floating through some clouds, kind of playing around and having a good time. I saw this great big white light that I thought would be fun to float over to. So off I went. Well, I really wasn't asleep yet so I totally thought that I was dying. So I force myself to open my eyes and come back to life. Then I realize that the big white light I was following was not the tunnel into heaven. It was the big bright light that they shine right onto your face. Being in a half normal, altered state of mind, I was a little realived that I was dead, but I was starting to have a panic attack anyway. I was a little TOO high at this point. The nurse noticed and then told me she was going to turn down the gas.

Still drugged I sat there totally afraid to go to sleep. So I did everything that I could to try to stay awake. I don't remember what the dentist and the nurse was talking about, but I remember trying to laugh. I heard what they said and I thought to myself "did they really just say that?" Then I started to think about my "near death experience" and all that crap that I had on my face and I started to get all claustrophobic. As a kid I used to have really bad problems with being claustrophobic. And here it was again. I stated to have another panic attack. I am sure that the dentist thought that I was nuts, but I was really feeling it. The room also started to spin and I was getting really sick. So they let me sit up and breath oxygen. Oh what a relief! I wasn't going to die!

So after all that and four hours later, I was able to leave. I still hate then dentist and my mouth is really sore still, but I learned something about myself that day. I would make a really bad drug addict.

Hope

I am very sad that Chris got voted off of American Idol last night. I have hope for him though. I bet he will be making a record before we know it! Just like Simon said that even though he got voted off doesn't mean that he lost. And yes he was better than Katharine.

Now I don't know who should win. I guess maybe Taylor, that boy can sing. He is a little quarky though so I don't know. Just because Chris is gone doesn't mean that I have to stop watching it. There are only two more weeks left, not too long for the impatient.
