Our night in review...

I got a text message from Hunter yesterday (and I think he texted because he was afraid to call) to tell me that he all of a sudden realized he had a project due for school and he forgot about it. Poor little dude started his homework at 3:30pm...

This is how he was when I got home... still smiling...

 working hard...

trying to concentrate

He finished at 11pm... the last part of his project was a brain teaser that took forever. I tried to help him- but realized I need to go back to eighth grade... I think I have lost a few brain cells since I graduated from college.

While Hunter worked on his homework, Quinnygirl ate dinner

helped unload the dishwasher

took a bath and then hungout in the kitchen while I cleaned some more

and then went to bed.

She awoke this morning in a great mood

But you know who was in a better mood? This little guy...

I promised my sister more pics of Hunter and Quinlin- but I couldn't resist the dancing machine at 7:15 this morning. He was a riot.

No pictures of Hunter from this morning... I think he had some bags under his eyes. Thank goodness we skipped basketball practice so he could get his homework done. Lesson learned- dont save things for the last minute.

So glad it's Friday. It's my half birthday- happy half birthday to me, happy half birthday to me... :)

Real quick- tv talk (what I watched this week)

• Desperate Housewives- why couldnt they just kill Paul Young already? I'm so sick of him... curious to see where the storyline plays out now that he knows about his wife. I also would like to say that I want Eva Longoria's hair...
• The Bachelor... I can't resist. Every season I get sucked in. I read realitysteve so I know the ending, but I still must watch. Hello boobs and weirdos on this season. And fang girl? Not sure why he kept her. I also cannot figure out Chantel O's ex-husband and it's killing me. I really like Emily- tragic past. Hooked.
• 16 & Pregnant- where are they now. I love that they did a recap of the girls who were never featured on Teen Mom... nice to see where thier lives have ended up. Some of them seem to really have things under control.
• Grey's Anatomy- episode was ok. Slightly predictable as even Sean was half watching and said "I bet Christina comes out of the ambulance" and sure enough, he was right. That's another show I can't give up on.

I think, sadly, that is all I watched. I seem to get one show a night (or have time for, let's say). I wanted to watch Modern Family (dvr'd) with Hunter last night (we love that show) but the homework consumed him and I didnt want to watch without him.

No big plans for the weekend. Sean is ice fishing tomorrow and I think we're going to his parents on Sunday to pick up Owen's full size mattress... I'm still on a bedding/ room decor hunt. If you have any ideas...send them my way.

TV Talk

I didn't really enjoy 16 and Pregnant this week... I found myself feeling really sorry for the girl. I found the show to be more "staged" and "forced" conversations for the camera. I found the guy to be immature and irresponsible. Very disappointing. Instead of finding it to be good tv this week, I found it to be more of a true look into a poor girl falling for a stupid guy and being left to raise the baby alone. Thank goodness for her parents.

What else have I been watching?
Desperate Housewives- I am still watching after all these years. Sean thinks its stupid, but it is a show I can't miss
Glee- was disappointed it was a re-run this week. Looking forward to next week and the Bon Jovi song! (I love Bon Jovi)
Grey's Anatomy- I thought last week's episode was really good. The documentary crew following the doctors around for a tv show. I thought it really tied everything together nicely from the shooting at the hospital to where they are today.
America's Next Top Model- I'm an episode behind but am liking this season. Not sure who I like the most. Jane maybe? and the blonde with the gap in her teeth- I like her. The tall girl is so awkward, but does take great photos.
The Challenge- always entertaining- both the actual challenges and the social aspect
The Simpsons- Owen is obsessed so this is on in our house all the time. I remember liking it when  I was in 7th grade (I think) and can't believe it's still on tv now. Great humor...he doesn't get it but loves it.
Dancing with the Stars- I liked Audrina... disappointed she is gone. This is #2 go-to show for Owen if he cant watch Simpsons, he asks to watch Dancing. I think Jennifer Grey is my favorite out of all who are left. Why is Bristol still in?
Modern Family- we love this show. It's nice because we watch as a family together every Wednesday night. Cam is by far, my favorite.
Survivor- we're an episode behind- but this is another one that we all watch together. I was disappointed that Jerry Jones got voted out so early in the season. I'm sure CBS was disappointed too.
Life Unexpected- I have like 6 of these shows DVR'd. I really like it but need a "me" day so I can catch up.
Oprah- I dvr this one for the few and far between good episodes. I would have thought being her last season, the episodes would be stronger. I watched Portia De Rossi's episode this week. Very touching as she talked about being a lesbian and having eating disorders... I felt bad when she brought up being a lesbian to her mother and the right things to say and the wrong things to say. Of course, you always want what is best for your children to have the happiest life possible, but I wouldn't turn my back or make my children feel less worthy, if they chose to have a different lifestyle.

I think those are my go-to shows at the moment... I really only get to watch one show a night but I cherish that time.

16 and Pregnant

16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom are my guilty pleasures.... I enjoy putting the kids to bed and curling up under the covers and watch, in peace, these shows... I dvr them, I watch them when they are a rerun and I have nothing else to watch (rare, my DVR is so full). The premiere of the new season was Tuesday night.... did you watch? The highlights for me:

[1]He wore a jumpsuit to their wedding and they had their honeymoon at the racetrack

[2]Condoms were under the sink...was she condoning sex by even teaching her how to put it on the cucumber?

[3]they named the baby Brody- a combo of Brooke and Cody

[4]they wanted to buy a prefabbed barn to live in- though after seeing one, it was kind of cute.

[5] at 26 weeks she complained she wasstarting to get big and was uncomfortbale- not big at all. Suck it up.

[6] she wore a pink sweatsuit at her baby shower

[7]I like the mom "I should not have to pick up a breast pad ever". I did like when she said I'm trying to help you learn how to be a wife and mother, and for you to be a husband and a father.

Loved every second of it... Brooke seemed to have a very supporting family... Unlike April, the mother of Catelynn on Teen Mom... Anyway- I will hopefully blog some recaps here and there throughout the season. Classic stuff- really!

Looking forward to the weekend! I am off of work today- hoping to get a good cleaning done on the house and get a jump start on the laundry. The kids are at daycare so I can really dig in. Aside from that, we have a Halloween Party to go to tomorrow night and Trick or Treating on Sunday. Have a great weekend!
