Okay, so I did my Pirate Island research after I created my post - they are building a Pirate Island close to me, in Layton. Yippee! The pizza is slightly better than Chuck E. Cheese (which is absolutely gross in my opinion), but still fails to compare to Peter Piper Pizza. Here is the link, so check it out! www.pirateislandpizza.com
I can't wait for it to open! Plus they sold a tank top there that said "Wench" - I should have bought it, but I didn't (unfortunately, that is all to common for me), but I will have a second chance :)

What's new!
T-ball is in full swing (ha ha - get it..). Kole has a game every Tuesday and Thursday, and is doing much better this year than last year! Of course, he still is 5, although he runs faster, throws farther, and hits better, his attention span is about the same! I think T-ball is a little too slow moving for Kole - too much waiting and not enough moving! 
Last weekend we took the boys to St. George - it was our first road trip with them... we all survived! Thanks to the DVD player and snacks, the boys handled the trip with a minimal amount of "when are we going to get there!"
Denin's grandparents live in a suburb of St. George - the boys were so excited to see GG and G-pa (much easier to say than great grandma and grandpa, wouldn't you agree?). We didn't do much but visit and take the boys swimming. On Saturday we went to an awesome kids pizza place for lunch - think pirate themed Chuck E. Cheese, it was way cool! The place was called Pirate Island, I was told they were building one in the Provo/Orem area, not very close to us, but much closer than St. George!
And the other big kid...
...yes I realize it isn't a very becoming picture of me (and yes I have my hair extensions back!)
But - he loves it, look at his cheesy grin as he runs!

On another note, Friday is the day, the "girls" are getting installed. I am trying to remind myself why I decided to do this - I don't have second thoughts, but I am nervous! So, even though I've been slacking on my posts lately, at least now I will have an excuse!!!

When did I become so...
Flaky, late, disorganized???? Some people might have other words to describe me, good or bad, but I just don't understand what I has happened to me!!!! Let me explain... As I was getting my out of town Mothers Day cards ready to be mailed (yes, I realize it's Thursday) I was looking for the most recent pictures of the boys to send in the cards, in my searching I looked through my stack of cards that I never gave out (birthday cards, bosses day card - I know...), and Mothers Day cards, 2 of them as a matter of fact, both to my friend Courtney. Her first Mothers Day was in 2007, I purchased a card, wrote a note in it, stuck the boys' Easter pictures in it, but never mailed it. So, in 2008, I purchased another card - never mailed that one either. Now in 2009 I have 3 Mothers Day cards for my best friend - I'm mailing all 3! They will be late, of course, but they will make it there - some friend am I.
At some point I have lost the ability to do it all, maybe I never could, but I at least I faked it. I am neurotic, obsessive compulsive (like most pharmacists), and organized, but it sure seem like it anymore (okay, except for the neurotic part). I thought with this job I could get more done because I'm out and about all day, but I don't. So now everything I have to do has to be done in the evenings or on the weekends, that's sounds like sufficient time right? Possibly, but after work I come home to my family - dinner, baths, bedtime, laundry, grocery shopping, household chores (thank goodness I pay someone to clean), sometimes work, I run out of time and energy to do the other things I need to do, although important, but if it doesn't whine, fuss, cry, or stink, it's easy to put off until tomorrow, but unfortunately tomorrow has different plans! I know there are many people that can do all of the above and more and not miss anything, but obviously, that is not me! So, for the things I have missed or been late on, it's not that I don't care, I just haven't developed my superwoman powers yet, and Courtney - thanks for being my friend, even when I'm 3 years late on your first Mothers Day card!

Oh where, oh where, did Jaime go?
Okay - it has been far too long since I have updated my blog. I have skipped Easter and everything since - sorry! In the recent weeks I have been to Chicago and Vegas - both for work, nothing fun unfortunately! I did get to have a few slices of Chicago pizza - I love pizza, and I love Chicago pizza! In fact, I can order the pizza and have it shipped to my home, for only $19... and $49 shipping!!!!! I will have to try it once though, just so Denin can try it (and I can have more).
Kole had his first t-ball game tonight, compared to last year, he has improved so much - what a difference a year makes! Last year he put his glove on his head, picked grass, sat down, ran slow between bases, pretty much everything but t-ball - but he loved it! This year he hits the ball further, runs faster, and is a little less distracted, and still loves it! He thinks he's pretty cool! This year his team is the Chicago Cubs, even though I'm a Diamondback fan - I can root for my Cubbie! I, of course, forgot my camera for tonight's game, but the next game is Thursday, so I have another opportunity to redeem myself!
