thoughts.......

I have been thinking about a few things since I was watching the Julie & Julia movie, I am a a person that really likes to cook. And even just looking at some of the sandwich recipes that I have looked at the do look really good. I also was thinking that maybe I am going to start cooking some of her things and I really do think that I would enjoy it. I am not going to go all out and do the whole thing with the 365 day and 500 some recipe thing that they did in the movie. I think I am going to jsut have some fun with it and just enjoy what I can get out of it.

I will write soon about what the food has come too.......

some many things on the mind today....

Today I have been thinking about a lot of things that have been going on her at home. It is nothing on the bad side of things, but Josh is back to work. Caleb is in school two days a week, Jillian is just getting bigger and bigger every day. I also can't forget about the diaper service is starting to look up, I am so over joyed about the diaper service.

But just looking outside and seeing that there is grass out there and not snow anymore. Watching the kids outside and play in the sand box. Caleb learning how to play soccer and loving every minute of it. It has been a great week with everything that has been going on even though some things are sad. It is just great that there is sun out and we can go out and play every day and not get stuck in the house because it is to cold out to even step foot out of the door.

But things have really changed around here with the kids know in day care twice a week and the diaper biz taking off. I have been working on trying to find a part time job. I have also been trying to give my sister as much time as I can for the diaper service but sometimes I really feel like I am not giving myself enough time in the day to do everything that I really would like to do. If you really think about it that is the life of a mother of two little ones and a co-owner of a diaper service that is know flying.

I will write soon,

times goes by so fast....

Today I was with the kids at the park. We were playing in the leaves and I was thinking that I really could not belive that it has been a month since I lost my job and that summer is over and winter is on it's way. And just thinking of all of the things that I really want to do with the kids as art projects. Thinking about all of the things that I really wish that I could do and I really can't do because we don't have a baby anymore. Because my little ones are getting so big they are almost two and three. It is just really hard to believe how fast things are really going.

Then I was looking back at some of the pictures that I don't have in storage. Thinking that it has been three years on February 22, that my son had to have emergency surgery and he was only a month old. Looking at him now you would have never known that he had to have surgery. He is a great two year old toddler, and I would not change a thing for the world. Even with all of the health problems that he has had since then also, he would never let you see that he is sick. He really is a great kid and I think that he is going to grow and be a great young man.

My daughter on the other had can be a handful and that sometimes is being nice. I still love her no matter what she does, like the other day she pushed her brother and gave him a really bad black eye. The first night that he had the black eye he could barely see out of his eye. I was really mad at her because I had just told her that we can not push but what does she do is push him anyway. But what can you do to such a cute little two year old. I also have to say that it is really cool to be able to do her hair and putting her is some of the cutest outfits that she gets from the family.

I have to say that I love the two that I have, but I have to also say that I really would like to have another little baby here with me while I am here at home. But then I also know that we can't afford to have another little one running around the house, but that does not stop me from wanting to have another little baby to take care off.

Life is a journy.....

Well Life has really changed in the last week. I have become a new SAHM, I have never been able to spend so much of my time with my kids. I have to say that I really do like the fact that I don't have to go to work at the moment, just spend the day with the kids and really not have to think about anything, but the two wonderful children that I have in my life. They have really changed my outlook on life, they have really made me feel better about be a mother. I have to say that being a SAHM for the first time since my oldest was born is really weird.

You know when I first became jobless I took it really hard, thinking that I failed my family, and how was I going to be able to find another job again. Well you know I never really got the time to stop and dwell on myself I had two wonderful children that I had to take care of. I think they really helped me get over the fact that I lost my job. One thing that took a while to sink in was the fact that God must be telling me something. Either he wants me to spend more time to focus on my family, and spend some more time trying to get my sister and my diaper service up and running. I will never really know what God has planed for me with this bump in my life, but I am going to take the time that he gives me. Spend it with my family, spend some of it working on the diaper service so that maybe I won't have to go back to work. Or if I am going to be going back to school and get a degree in something, so that if I have to get a job I can get one that will pay a decent amount to help support my family.

I have to say though it is really great being a SAHM for once in my life. This way I know that I am not going to miss anything that they are doing.

crazy......

I know that it has been a while since I have last put up a blog, so here we go and see what has gone on in the past few weeks.

Well everything was going crazy with the wedding and all of the things that go with that. My brother-in-law just got married on the 30 of may. I was an amazing wedding but it is really hard to find a babysitter that is not in the wedding party or the mother of the groom. So I had my best friend come out and watch the kids for us. The party was so much fun, and after Caleb had his dinner we went and got him to come and dance with us. He had sooooo much fun dancing with all of the girls in his PJ's.

Then their was everything that come after the wedding all of the clean up that comes with that. Well then you have to come back to reality after that and man I have to say that it was hard. I had so much fun being able to spend five days with the kids and not have to work.

Well after being back to work for a few days I have to say that I really don't like leaving the kids it broke my heart when I had to go back to work. And having to see their faces when you walk out the door without them. IT REALLY SUCKS.

Well after work today I looked at my phone and it said that my father-in-law was in a car accident, man did I freak out. I thought that I was going to have to go up to the ER and wait for him to come in. So I called J and found out that he was okay and that I just had to come home. Man was my heart pounding so hard. I was thinking that some really bad had happened to him.

And know tomorrow J has to leave and go to Chicago for a week. I am going to really miss him and so are the kids. Without him being here I really don't know what I am going to do with myself. The bed is going to be so empty without him next to me, but he really has to go. I will just miss him.
