Cami, the late potty training monster

2014-05-03T12:12:00.003-04:00

After going through 4 pairs of underwear in less than 30 minutes I don’t know how I survived potty training Aiden. I’ve been trying to get Cami excited about potty training this whole week. For the first time in his almost 3 and a half year life he doesn’t want diapers. He actually said he wanted to just wear underwear. Which for me was a HUGE win. Yet actually getting him to pee in the potty

For the past few years I’ve stepped away from this blog. It’s not like I haven’t had time or anything. I’ve been caught up with stuff. I’ve been caught up with Aiden who from birth was a handful. I then went through a messy breakup which after almost 3 years has finally quieted down. Then now there is a second special needs son (Cami). Followed by the addition of a beast and a baby girl.

so i'm changing my lifestyle and writing a blog about it to help me keep my goal http://nikkicupcakeisgoingtodoitthistime.blogspot.com/ if you wanna check it out!

Since my split from Aiden and Cami's father there have been quite a few guys I dated and "saw". It was awkward at first but then dating became "normal". I dated one guy for a month and broke up with him then there was someone else I "saw" for quite a few months who ended it with me which was kind of hard for me. I dated around a bit after that. I went out for drinks with a few guys who I

Aiden turned 3 a little over a month ago. He's huge. He's actually just a hair taller than his 5 year old cousin. He's kind and caring. He's happy and loving. Aiden loves Phineas and Ferb, cars, and planes. He loves making people laugh and loves just to run around and play in the dirt. His crazy blonde curly hair matches his personality. Aiden loves to eat Chinese food and drink

2012-02-22T19:48:00.002-05:00

It's rare when my house is quite at 7:30 at night. Cami went to bed a little early and Aiden is quietly playing on the floor with his cars. It's been a long time since I've gotten a chance to actually sit down and well blog. I've been taking A LOT of me time. After Alan and I split I felt out of sorts. I really began to feel the grip he has on my life. I actually had to leave my job because of

Hello again

2011-09-24T11:36:00.001-04:00

I’ve let this little blog of my parenting adventures go a bit. A lot has happened since I last left you. I started a full time job that’s pretty rad. I enjoy the job and I’m learning skills I can actually use to help support me and my children. I also adore the people I work with and the people I work for. I’ve made a bunch of new friends that are showing me what I’m missing from life. I got a

Hello all

2011-02-22T12:27:00.000-05:00

My dearest readers I haven’t dropped of the face of the earth. In my last post I talked about job hunting. Well guess what, the job that I really really really wanted…. Well I got it! Plus I also took on a band. That’s right ladies and germs I got back into music. And I took up yoga because that 30 lbs of baby weight I’m still carrying around isn’t so hot when you’re 5 feet tall. Anyway I also

the lost arts of the previous generation

2011-01-11T05:20:00.000-05:00

Just one generation ago, us women were taught how to bake everything from scratch, darn socks, sew a whole wardrobe, clean with household goods, and cook anything you could imagine. I remember my grandmother sewing my whole bedroom set for me when I was little. She made everything from the curtains to the bed sheets. She even made her own clothes. I’d make pizza with her from scratch with jarred

2011-01-07T09:33:00.001-05:00

Explain to me why being a female and having kids is looked as a negative at a job interview? I have gone on several job interviews in the past few days (I’m going back to work so what can I say). And at every interview things seam to be going great UNTIL they asked me about my family or somehow my children get into it. Then whoever interviews me marks on my resume that I have 2 kids and then they

Since i really haven't been celebrating Cameron's monthly millstones.....

2011-01-03T11:10:00.000-05:00

I'd figure i'd share that at the ripe ol' age of 2 months and 3 weeks and change old Cameron randomly started to roll over (yesterday). I can't remember what age Aiden started to roll over all I know is that he defiantly didn't do it before 3 months old. Cameron did it like 7 or 8 times in a row so yay for him! And yesterday was Cameron's first non-sleepy day since his born. He was all smiles

2010-12-13T08:30:00.000-05:00

Sometimes I wonder why I was blessed with not one but 2 health kids. How was it me that was able to carry a full term baby and not know it and he be happy and healthy? How was it Cameron was born healthy too? I feel very blessed that they are both here with me but I can’t help but wonder why. Why am I blessed while people who try and want children badly don’t have them? See I never wanted kids

oh MY i have a TWITTER with a direction?

2010-12-12T18:09:00.000-05:00

So twitter is the only thing about new media i just don't get. I mean i don't get the point of having a twitter because a long long time ago i had a myspace. Then i had a myspace and a facebook because facebooks had statuses. So what would be the point of having a twitter and a facebook. I've been bother by this for the the almost 2 years i've had a twitter. So today i have deiced to start a

My heart goes out to the parents who have to fight the government to get help with the care of their child. It truly breaks my heart to see how the government never grants to people who are really in need. It hurts me to see people all around brag about how they get assistance, yet the mom who’s child was born at 26 weeks and has multiple struggles to face isn’t able to get a penny without a

Hand-me-downs

2010-12-04T15:51:00.002-05:00

***Note: Finally, this is the hand-me-down story that I keep saying that I am going to tell so here you go!*** First may I say I think there is nothing wrong with hand-me-down clothes. I think there is nothing wrong with it in the least. I am currently and will be handing down many of Aiden clothes to Cameron. I have accepted many hand-me-down clothes. Most kids usually wear something only

a MUCH needed update

I figure while it’s pouring here in good ol’ Jersey I’d take a break from chasing my recycling around my backyard and soothing children who are woken up from naps by men installing siding. Anyway I have had a serious lack of updating on my part. A lot as actually gone down! My cousin Jackie has a baby boy on Tuesday of last week, named Zack! YAY! He came in at a health 8 lbs. Sadly Cameron
