My Allergies are in full swing today. thanks mother nature for the crazy ass weather you have been throwing our way here in Chicago. We go from 65 degree day to a 90 degree day WTF?
So I have been having a lot of crazy thoughts lately... like my hubby is super quiet and keeps to him self. I love him dont get me wrong but I sometimes wonder if someone like me more out going would be more fun?
I mean my husband and I have fun times but those are when we are alone. Never with a group of people. Most of the time I go out by myself and have a much better time then when I have to entertain him and do what he wants. I have basically just have learned to live with it. But there are times when I still wish that he was just a little bit more out going.
After having 2 kids I figured one of them would be like him although I wished they would not be. And it seems like they are both like there mama. Big personalities. And for this I am grateful
Here is to hoping I stop sneezing before bed time and that my headache leaves...

Toddler Time!
I have noticed over the last six months that my daughter watches too much TV. Since school started we do not turn the TV on during the week at all.
Everyday when she gets home from school she is only allowed to play with her toys or do other things. I come home while I make dinner we talk about her day. Then after dinner we read, play games, color, paint Exct...
And lately I have not even been turning the TV on until the weekend. After the kids are off to bed I clean up, so dishes... then I get in my bed usually have a snack and read as well.
With The Hubbs being in school full time and the weather still nice I have been taking the kids somewhere every weekend. Even if it is to the park for a few hours. We usually go out the lunch on Sat this week we went to the McDonald's play place then Sunday we had a birthday party.
Yesterday I took the kids to toddler time at the library and it was a success! Although Xander has grown up with Kylie he needs the social interaction and to learn to be in a structured setting.
It was fun my friend brought her twins along with another set of hands to help. We had a really great time and then went back and let the boys play after. They were sad to see us go but we can come back next Monday for round 2 :)
This weekend is the 2nd Preemie Picnic we will be attending in Honor of our Graduate from the RUSH NICU. I am so happy to see all the other babies that we met along the way and their parents. I am really looking forward to seeing all the nurses again can't wait.
Shhh don't tell anyone but I am really having the baby itch again I need a fix damnit!

Word of the Week
My daughter is a riot. She is literally the funniest kid I know. She says the craziest things I have ever heard in my life.
Here are 2 funny stories to prove she is a trip and a half.
I did not witnessed this actual event but my babysitter told me. So we all know little boys that once they discover their lil ding dongs they are obsessed with it. Every time I take off my sons diaper he plays, when he takes a bath he plays with it he now sticks his hands in the diaper and "plays" Do they ever really stop? LOL
Anyways the babysitter is changing my son and of course he is "playing" with it. The princess usually stands beside the changing table to talk to who ever is changing the baby.
So my son goes to touch her and she yells at hom " DON'T TOUCH ME" Babysitter: "why cant he touch you Kylie?"
Kylie replies " Um yeah I don't want his penis germs!" LMAO I could not stop laughing when she told me this how funny is that!
So as you know she started school a few weeks ago. She was telling me that there was a little boy in her class that is "Bad"
Kylie" Mom he does not listen, or sit correctly,"
Me: Oh which little boy is that?
Kylie" Mom he is darker than me you know like the ones next door"
Her new word of the week is Absolutely.
I ask her to do something and she is all Absolutely Mom I would love to! I sometimes wonder if she is being a smart ass or not?

Wondering....
Happy Labor today so today is my day off and let me tell you I needed it so very bad.
Anyways, I have been doing a lot of thinking today? Like wondering why things happen? In my life and to other people that I care about.
Before I met my hubby I never thought in a million years I would be a military wife. Nor did I imagine that I would see a war and live though someone I love being in it! After going through that and the after math of I remember thinking it can't get worse than this. I think I have been through it all.
Boy was I wrong...Then I get very sick and my baby is sick as I think back on how scary it really I still can't believe it was real and that we all went through it. At this point I don't dare say nothing could be worse because yes there will be things that are hard if not harder...
This I am facing is the facts of life it is like an endless roller coaster. you just have to make your ride worth while. I believe it is truly up to me to make sure I am happy.. and that my kids are happy. I make up my mind whether to live in happiness or anger.
There have been times in my life where I was down or depressed but I think if I have learned anything from it is that it really could be worse and I need to make the best of it. At least I am not sick or watching someone die... there are much worse things than having to clean up after people day after day or spilling milk on the floor.
I had a really good "family weekend" I did everything I wanted to do despite self centered grandparents who refuse to visit their grand kids even though they driver 4 and a half hours so be it. I am sick of trying to make things right with people. Get over yourself because at least I can look in the mirror.
