Something's wrong with me

I had a poopy day today! I hate it when I act like a typical "women" and I'm all mad and pissy for no reason. Then when I go over in my head what might be wrong, I get mad at myself cause it's usually so dumb!

The days that I work til 5 are so hard for the kids and me. Like today, I got off and ran to the store to get some stuff for dinner, I went to Navek's school cause he had soccer practice. We went home, and the kids are always so hyper when we get home....it takes them a little while to calm down. So we had dinner, taco salad. I made up every one's plate and tried to convince them it was good. Yzabelle usually tries everything, Emerald and Navek not so much. It looks and smells all pretty, but they always complain! It bugs me. I try to be strong and tell them that "this is dinner so you had better just eat it" Once Emerald and Navek tried it they ate most of it...ok ok ok I totally bribed them that if they finished it I would give them strawberry shortcake, whatever and some junk it worked! Anyway, I always feel like I'm in a hurry. A hurry to get dinner done, kids bathed, pj's, teeth, reading, calming down and finally bed. It's like I need to get them to bed, so we can wake up and freaking do it again. The mornings go the same way. Hurry get up, get dressed, quick....eat, backpack, teeth, coat, shoes, socks. Are they ever going to be in dependant and just KNOW what to do? Grrrrr! We always hurry out the door. Hurry, hurry, hurry! I need to be better about stopping.....relaxing (what the heck is that?) and enjoying life. It's hard for me.

If something falls on the floor......look at it and say to myself "no one is going to pick that up except me!!!!" Then I cry, no I don't really but I scream inside sometimes! And what's the deal with crumbs? Why does everything produce stupid crumbs! I hate them. I feel like I could sweep til the cows come home and still, somehow, there will be crumbs or lint, or a dried up booger or something on the floor waiting for my mean sweeping skills to take it away!! Maybe I should get a dog! Haha It would just be better if gravity was used only to keep heavy objects from floating up. I mean what would be the harm if messes just floated up in the air, or got sucked into some magical area where we never saw them again. Ok, I am majorly rambling. Need to go to bed!

My little Tristyn






I should probably start with Tristyn since he is the youngest. This little kid is amazingly wonderful. He is so dang cute and my heart goes pitter patter every time I see him. He just turned 3 on the 16th of March. He is all boy most of the time, but doesn't mind playing house with Emerald once in a while. He LOVES Star Wars (does this really surprise you haha) he plays a lot with the action figures and sometimes he plays with Navek with them. He's so cute when he plays with these or any other toy because of the sound effects. I don't know how he does it, he was probably born with the natural talent of making noises, but I LOVE it!! He also likes to watch the actual Star Wars movies. It's weird because even at a young age he would sit down and watch a whole 2 hour movie cartoon or not!! Very interesting. A lot of times when the movie is finished he'll run over to me and re-enact some of his favorite parts. So he'll start talking about the movie and be like "Then Darth Vader cut of Luke's hand like Psshhhh....Ahhhhh....like that mom!!!" It's so funny He calls episode VI (6) "Star Wars the Clone Wars Return of the Jedi", and episode V "The scary Star Wars" I, of course, don't mind it at all!



He's such an easy going kid. I am able to reason with him more than my other stubborn kids sometimes.



He likes to pretend he's a cat a lot too. I'll be holding him and he'll just start to "Meow" He makes a really good cat noise too. He likes me to call him "Haggy" for Hagrid....the name of my sisters cat. He'll crawl around on the floor a lot and sometimes when I hold him he'll want to tell me a secret and whisper in my hear "meow, meow. mow mow mow mow" then he'll lick me, this is kinda weird, but I just let him do it cause it's so cute! I'm such a pushover for this kid.



He's a pretty good talker. I love the way he says the "r" sound cause it sounds like a "w" I think my mom said I did the same thing. So he'll say something like "I wun weally fast mom!!" stuff like that!
THis was at Christmas time.


Me and my baby Christmas morning!

Over a year?


I need to get with the program and update this blog for no one but myself. It's like a cute little journal thing I can do for my kids.

Lots and lots and lots has happened! My kids are older, I'm older, life is wild and crazy. The Lord has truly blessed us all though. More pics to come as I start updating this blog! Yay!!
