Dora

Well, its happened. BAB has found the all powerful Dora the Explorer. She is in love. I am not. BUT she thanks me everytime I go downstairs and put her Dora movies on so that I can get a little peace and quiet. I love it! Which would be to say that it is a love/hate relationship!

The news

Well, I flunked my diet yesterday. But I am back on track today..... so far.


LC is 12 weeks old today. The time goes by so quickly. She is sleeping through the night now. Hence the being able to write more since I am not haggardly tired! LM is going to turn 2 in about the 2 months! I can't believe it! BAB is a typical 3 yr old. She is growing up so fast. Her face is looking more like a little girl and not a toddler.

LM and I were sick yesterday. We both had a fever and nothing else. This morning however my throat hurt. But I am guessing that it is from the new Plug In that I used. I am sensitive to smells. That makes me sound so dainty......:) I'm not.

Real moms

I got this from a forward. I thought it was funny. I had to pass it on!

MOTHERS

Real Mothers don't eat quiche; They don't have time to make it. I make it.... before the kids get up!

Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox. Its true this happens to me all the time. No matter how many times I say not to bring them down there. They are sneaky little devils.

Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids. I don't know if I have ever cleaned my oven.... wait last christmas I dumped some apple pie on it. I believe I cleaned it then.

Real Mothers know that dried play dough doesn't come out of carpets. I am of those weird mothers that don't let there kids play with play dough inside. It makes me have panic attacks. :)

Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up. I got a dyson for my birthday. Love it! But I also have to see what is being vacuumed. And with 1 husky mix and a long haired cat it is just disgusting. I can't vacuum in front of people. I break out in hives.

Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?' And get their answer when a little voice says, 'Because I love you best.' I've never heard that!

Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade... It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother... Awwww.... My kids still call me mommy!

I LOVE MY KIDS!

Thee ultimate screw up

Well, it happened. I was asked if I was getting excited about my baby being born. And I had to tell her she was born in Aug. already. I was mortified. And I cried. So I have gained a lot of weight. I actually have lost some, but I haven't been doing that good on my diet. And also I just sat here and ate about 3 handfuls of chocolate chips. I just don't have time to work out! But I have been doing the south beach diet. I would like to loose at least 65 lbs. That leaves me with more then I weighed before I got married still......

Sleeping

I need to sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppppp. I should be sleeping, but I'm not. The oldest girls are napping and LC is at my mom's house. I am not sleeping. After the kids went to bed I had to make myself some lunch. And then I decided to try and take a snoozer. The phone rang. I didn't answer. I settled back down. The phone rang again. It was my sister. I answered and gave up the nap. Le sigh....
