growing up

2010-04-23T22:15:00.000-07:00

Last Sunday Brian's youngest sister got engaged. Which to be honest I did not see coming so soon. Granted they have known each other since high school. Have only been dating for three months and are gong to have a July wedding. yes July as in 2 months from now crazyness I tell you madness.
I think if Bethy was more of a planner I wouldn't be worried. Lets hope things go smooth with very little stress for the family.

I think that about covers it. As I made a comment on Summers blog the other day. The cat is licking me ugh Ruby or Miss Piss is a odd cat. I love her but dude get off me .

For some reason I have taken to saying Dude. Must leave the house more without children or I will lose my ever loving mind.

I love that its getting nice outside. The boys and I spent about 2 hours outside today soaking up some vit D.

jaded

2010-03-04T21:46:00.000-08:00

My little sister is attending The Bethel School of Supernatural Ministries. I don't know what my feelings on this is are. When did I become so jaded was it from growing up in the church. Seeing how Pastors and others acted one way while at church. Then turning around and acting a complete different way.
I miss going to church worshiping feeling like we are part of something.

2010-01-15T19:06:00.000-08:00

Today my mom and I took the boys for pictures. Well that was fun or something like that. N spent the time giggling or fake crying. P did really good he only got fussy at the clothing change. We got a few cute pictures they are not perfect by any means. N would jump around and waves his hands during the photos. P has some drool running down his chin and some cradle cap. Stupid stuff is holding on for dear life ugh.

The other day I let things flow. I told B about my unhappiness how it is creeping back. How spending money and eating a cookie are a quick fix. I asked him to change my paypal pass word. So I couldn't get that quick fix by buying my boys cute fluff or wool.
My depression has shown its ugly head again but different this time. I have told two people that its time to change. They will hold me accountable and make sure I fallow threw . I know things will be better there is no shame in seeing someone or taking meds. I wish more people would be open with this issue .

once again

2009-09-16T10:38:00.000-07:00

My life is up in the air. I'm not happy being a stay at home mom. Things are just not great or what I want. I need to figure out where am going if that means work or school. I need to get out of the house and talk to adults. My children are suffering because of my unhappiness. So far I haven't found any mom that understand me. They all love being stay at home mom's with spotless clean houses.

I never made a official birth post. June 14th Paul Emmett was born @ 9:18 AM. His stats were 9 lbs 50z 20.5 inches 14" head he came by c-section. Sunday we was 3 weeks old things are going well. We had a rough start in the hospital after losing around 14% of his birth weight. We had a great nurse who got us frozen breast milk that was in NICU. We also got a Milk donor for at home while we waited for my milk to come in. Paul is a very laid back baby who sleeps 3-4 hour chunks at night.

Being an adult

2009-06-02T14:26:00.000-07:00

On Monday night my friend took her mom off life support. This got me talking with my friend Sarah. How would I handle this if it was my mom? To have to make choices and be the adult. I have a sister who would help make these choices but still.
My Heart goes out to the Pant's family her mom passed away this afternoon. Now comes the chore of getting everything taken care of. Please keep the Pant's family in your hearts and prayers as they grieve.
