Hi People!!!!

A Change is a coming.....soon.....

Conversations with my children

If you're my friend on Facebook you may have already seen these-but I had to share these on my blog.

‎...conversation with Ellie last night:

Me: (while I sweep up the dry oatmeal she spilled) Ellie,you sure made a huge mess!
Ellie: I didnt make that mess!
Me: My heiney you didnt make this mess!
...Ellie: I didnt make this mess on your heiney mommy!

Another conversation with the kids last night,talking about our spaghetti sauce.

Jude: Does the sauce have meatballs?
Me: No,just ground beef.
Jake:Does it have cheese it in already? It looks like it has cheese in it.
...Ellie: It looks like diarrhea.

 

I wish I kept better track of these little anecdotes,but lets be honest...my brain is like mush!

Why is Ellie still sick?

This just isnt letting up! The poor thing looks terrible. Today she has just been miserable.I have never seen her like this-she is the happiest kid and today she has just crumbled under the tiniest thing.She has hardly eaten for a week,it just worries me!

The worst part is I cannot get motivated with her like this.There is just something about a sick baby that just makes you want to do nothing but cuddle them.Thats pretty much all I have done for days.

The flu is ridiculous! So is snow!

It has gone through 4 of out 6 of the kids so far.It is lasting a week and as a result confining me to the house.I keep feeling like I might be getting it,but then I feel better again.SO annoying.

We got snow on Sunday-so pretty but kept the kids out of school for 2 days.Yet another reason to confine me to the house.


On a brighter note-I lost a pound this week! Hallelujah!

I just bought the most killer shoes!

I am IN LOVE!!!!!!

Frustrations!

Ok,I am on the downhill stretch to 40.I turn that dreaded number in November.I am about 30 pounds overweight.(WOW-I just put that out there.Ouch)

Two summers ago I did the South Beach diet and lost 25 pounds.Well,alot has happened since then and I have gained it all back.I started back on it a week ago and I have lost 3 ounces.The last time I lost 5 pounds in a week! I dont know what I am doing wrong!  Is because I am closer to 40? My body is different now.I dont know.UUUUUGH....I just don't want to get myself down and fall off the wagon.I feel so much better.More energy,less bellyaches,etc.I need to stick with this! Encourage me people!

Guilty Pleasures....

Ok,admit it,everyone has something they LOVE that might just embarass them a little bit.I have a few.I thought maybe I would share a few of them with my multitude of readers...(ha ha ha)

Guilty Pleasure #1-That honor goes to Mr Drake Bell. I never missed an episode of Drake and Josh on Nickelodeon,because it was so darn funny.Soon after I discovered Drake Bell is a musician.He isn't too bad of one either! He has a page on Facebook-Drake Bell. He isnt very mainstream in the US,but he is very popular overseas and in Mexico.His music is kinda cheesy and silly and I love it.It makes it nice that Ellie loves it too,so I dont feel so silly when I crank it in the car.

Guilty Pleasure #2-Yo Gabba Gabba.I LOVE this show.I watch it with the kids.It is so wild and wacky and funny.I get told regularly that I am nuts about this one.I dont care though,DJ Lance rocks my socks!

Ok-one more for today-since I can't really think of anymore right now.Remember the old days of Blue's Clue's? Remember Steve,the COOL host? Well I adore him....I couldnt even watch Blue's Clues anymore when he left.It was ridiculous.He even has his own band! Here is a link to some info on him. Steve Burns

So anyway-Share yours with me.Im sure you can top me.Maybe....
