Walking Trails 2007-11-14 14:01:00 Since we are kinda new in Florida, on Sunday we decide to look for some alligators so we when to a place that someone recommend to my husband, it is call Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge, and for only 5 dlls per car, you can get inside and walk the trails, see the nature and find some crocs. I thought that was amazing, even when we really not prepare cause to be honest we are not use to do much, you can pack some snack and drinks or water, take a hat or umbrella and just enjoy it. The downside is that, and I am embarrassed to say it, I am in lousy shape. Even my husband did better, that suck. He say that we probably we will do a couple of Sundays like this so hopefully I will get in better shape.

Falling Sleep 2007-11-09 21:44:00 How can you catch up some ZzZzZzZ when you have a 3 yr. and a 8 mo. sick? As far I can say NEVER!Just 2 weeks ago The Fathead and The Boy catch a cold with coughing, and since then I had been sleeping in the couch (hurts and miss my husband and bed!), and how is that possible, cause in one end The fathead lays down and the other end is Me and The Boy. How is that possible, just taking the big pillows from the couch to make it wider, obviously is tight and that's why I am sore every morning.The problem is when you think you can go back to our bed after they kinda getting out of the sickness, is that by then you cant go back to bed and you are so awake like a owl.All of this is making me be falling sleep all morning, sometime even pass out, and that sucks when you have 2 out of 3 kids at home.At this point coffee starting to taste awww after the third cup in the morning, and that come from a person that use to not drink coffee...only when I use to work in a office environment, for some Read more:Sleep

Watching Kids Movies 2007-11-07 07:03:00 I have a confession, I am that kinda mom that watch the movies with my kids, every new movie for sale....I am the first one to buy it (lets face it I cry with The Lion King the 1st time I saw it). The problem is that our kids decide to watch the movie over and over and over...awwwMadagascar is one, so many scratches that doesn't work anymore, my 3yr old favorite is Cars I watch all of them 10 or more times, and I am been kind on the number. My kids, in there lifetime like 40+ times each of the whole collection they have. Now are new DVD on our collection is Ratatouille, and soon I can tell is Shrek The Third. Thank God for Blockbuster and Hollywood Videos that resale their movies for much less the price.

TV Lineup 2007-11-06 07:16:00 While I am waiting for my coffee French Vanilla Flavor to be ready and turning the TV to listening any channel at this time in the morning I realize how my taste of shows had change and keep changing every year. You see I really don't go out much and sadly the TV is my only anti-stress, has become my refuge in the madness around me. I try books but I will never be able to finish it with the Fathead and the Boy asking for me all the time. Scrapbooking.....having the Fathead trying to help get more in my nerves that anything else.So my line up is like this Mondays and Tuesdays are SACRED, mainly because Heroes, House and Boston Legal. I am Testing the new show call Chuck from NBC since I really didn't care much for the others at that time.

I will say this the only fun about it is actually see your kids enjoy it...when they smile is priceless.It wasn't bad money wise, 20 bucks, 12 on ticket for Hallie and Cassie and the rest in... well junk food and drinks. The Boy was awesome all day until the Last half hour when he start crying.The last thing we did, was make line for the Twig, she want it to go Rock Climing. Before it was her turn, a boy start having problems hie string (or whatever you call it) wasnt working the way is suppose to, he kinda end up stuck in the wall with no security ("SCARY"), the guys in charge didnt do much to help, his mom end up offering gettin up cause this people were not reacting.

Playdate in Toytown 2007-05-17 21:47:00 Today was a fun day for the Fathead we went to a Playdate
in Toytown, she had so much fun, I haven't see her enjoying herself so much in a long time. She came back and took a long nap, she just woke up and still looks tired. The Boy was with us too but he slept most of the time. I totally recommend this place to everybody, to bad is far away from me but its worth it. My Playdate was with a mommy from Maya's Mom, I think she is a great lady and hope she will get together in the future for more Playdates if not its ok too I still enjoy myself today. Hope I meet more moms like her to make friends.
The Neurologist Visit 2007-05-16 21:52:00 Yesterday I took the boy to the Neurologist, long story shot of why is because in a sand storm...yes sand storm the energy went out and I live in the area where it was so dark that you couldn't see you're hand in front of you. Baby fell in the tile floor I and up in the Emergency room the transfer me to another hospital cause in his catscan show I little bleeding in his head. His fine and the doctor says that doesn't look that he will have any permanent damage. Anyway's I guess I should be thankful that the Fathead behaves as much as she can. In the waiting room for the docs visit she make a new friend (shown in the picture) and color some pictures, which she enjoy cause she is not allow.... at all to have in her hands any kind of crayons, pen, pencils, markers, etc....
In Trouble 2007-05-12 21:56:00 So who you think got in trouble last night? Of course the fathead, who doesn't learn yet about boundaries, you keep telling her NO over and over and still does whatever she wants. She got caught taking all the blanket & pillows out of her room and taking the boys clothes and diaper out of their place. And don't feel bad about her, she is just crying cause she got caught and I told her to take back everything, it looks that is more hard doing that.

The Pooopo Emergency! 2007-04-29 17:29:00 My husband has a thing for popo and diapers, you see his stomach is very sensitive, very sensitive, so I always been the one changing diapers. This past months that I was pregnant I need him to take care of our 2 yr old girl while I was going to my prenatal check, I always check the diaper before I left home.So what my daughter does as soon I leave? popo her diaper, and the worst is that for some reason smells worst that an adult, not only that everything was coming out from the back. What my husband do? Put her in the shower, butt facing the water until all popo is gone, take her out and wrap her in a towel until I get home. I get home and she is a towel, bathroom a mess and diaper still in shower. Talking about timing!!!

Why do You Blog? 2007-11-30 02:39:33 Another Blogger Mom write this on CafemomI have been wanting to ask other bloggers, why? Why do you blog? What are your reasons for putting your thoughts, feelings, ideas, your very life, out there, in print, on the Internet, for so many to see?I do it because I love to write. I find it to be an outlet, to be able to express myself in writing. I love to connect with other people, to share with and to learn from their responses. So tell me why you do it?Staciehttp://www.everyday-reflections.com/I agree with her, me personally, is a way to vent, even do that I am not the greatest writer, but I just enjoying blogging, is like my little moment of sanity. Since we had move very often is has been hard to make friends, here you can find people that shares with you many of the things you a going thru. Also the fact that maybe someone will smile about one of your stories. I guess it feels good communicate with someone else beside my hubby and 3 little monkeys, don't get me wrong... I LOVEEEEEE
