Sometimes ....

These were some arrangements I made a LOOOOOONG time ago. I was just thinking this morning how fun it would be to go play with flowers all day long without having to worry about the kids or the groceries. But I love being a stay at home mom so definately not for a job, just for a day. Today feels like it would have been a good day for making beautiful arrangments for others to enjoy.

My Good Chillins

So this morning Mom put down the decree. No Messes Before Preschool!

.

This morning our soon-to-be new realitor is coming to take pictures of the house for a virtual tour so I have to have it tidy at the least... granded I should probably scrub it, but hey I'm too lazy and how much to pictures show of that stuff anyways?! :o)

.

Anyways, the kids were fabulous! As you can see, G sat down with a ew books and Missy My decided to take an interest in some of Little Li's toys. I didn't even have to turn the TV on!! (which is even better because there wasn't time to watch a whole movie and our Satelite has been turned off for a while)

.

Anyways, just thought that for a change I would brag about my kids rather than complaining ... I do that WAY too much! I'm working on it though!

All my many hair styles.

Really, I honestly think that I haven't had my natural hair color since highschool till now! LOL and I finally decided to grow out my hair before I get so old it looks like I'm trying to be "younger" than I am... and now I'm TIRED of it AGAIN! How do you think I should do it THIS time if I do anything at all? LOL

7 months old

So, the other day I was looking through pictures and wanted to see how my kids all looked around the age that Li is now... so here we go :) cute kids at 7 months old. First G, then Missy, and last Little Li.

My homie :)

So, this is Jer.... he's cold. So he's wearing his hoody with that hood up baby! Which makes him look kinda like a gangsta wannabe :o)

Anyways, most Sundays Jer makes eggs for the fam. This morning is was just for me cause the kids ACTUALLY slept in .... one benefit of illness I guess. Well now, I guess I should be more upfront :oD We actually ALL slept in ... no WAY am I letting that opportunity pass without taking it! But by the time that Jer and I got to breakfast the kids had already had theirs ... so he cooked for the two of us.

And may I say, his egg cooking Skillz definately top mine! :oD

I can't WAIT for spring!

And no necessarily because of the warm weather... though that WOULD be nice about now.

No, It's because of the CRAP that my family keeps getting. First RSV, then colds, now something else (I pray it's not the Flu that the flu shots don't work for... please please please).

I'm tired of my kids faces being covered in snot, I'm tired of them fighting cause they are grouchy because of fever or too little sleep, but mostly .... I'm tired of having to take care of everyone when I too feel like my head is in a vice or worse!

I know I know.... complain,complain. And for the rest of you mom's out there, you know how I feel! Oh, these are the days that I miss being a teenager and being allowed to sit in the tub for hours with a good book. Or be able to take a nap at 10am or 3pm or heaven forbid 7 pm and stay up till 2am without any major hurdles to be jumped.

So, until such a time as my kidlets are feeling better and the weather is good enough to send them outside when they are loud or fighting I will have to settle for a small nap on Saturday or the conundrum of whether or not to take a bath instead while the spouse in home to hold down the fort till I get out. What a good Hubby he is :)

--------- 2 1/2 hours later --------
Ahhhh sleeeeep. Yes, I decided to nap. Good decision :)

Oh No!!! NOT AGAIN!!

G is sick again... fever of 101F
