catching up~

So I promised my self I would blog about our family and life everyday, well, I got two sick kids and a disaster of a house and picked up two shifts at work the last few days. So needless to say, I haven't been able to blog. I mean I bet I could have if I really tried but it's just been so buisy here and what I could cut out I did so I could catch some sleep. I have how ever been able to work on some of my new years resolutions. I have been working out at night, putting in my teeth whitening trays and been careful on watching what I say to my kids and around my kids. I have to take my before pictures today so I can see my progress, I've only worked out a handfull of times so far but it's a start and it has felt really good! I took kamryn to get her hair cut this past weekend because she decided to cut it again......She gave herself almost a full mullet! it's not a good thing, the only option I had was to bobb it to kinda blend it and wait for it to grow in. She just thinks it's "so pretty" It's hilarious and frustrating all at the same time. We are working on our potty training this week again and hopefully Kamryn will catch on and we will be done with diapers soon. She's old enough to be out of them, I just need her to find her connection and be out of them! Diapers are too exspensive! Two kids in them is just killing me!!! But the house is destroyed as of yet and my kids are running free, so I guess I better stop blogging and do some damage control!

Frustrations~

I still have a sick baby boy and so have I worked out? NO! All I was able to do today was hold him until he fell asleep and then fight with his sister to stop screaming and try to keep her from waking him up. I know they say that it's called the terrible two's but I really can't take her somedays! Like today for instance~ She stood in the hall and screamed at me, hit me, threw toys at me, hit her brother, stood outside his room ans screamed at the top of her lungs.....shall I continue?~ I have put her in time out, stuck her nose to the wall paddled her behind, taken toys away. She is so stubborn she just doesn't care, and when I have one that is sick my patience for her doing that wears really thin.....not to mention she cut her hair again~ I mean even worse than it was.....there is no hiding it now. I love my daughter but really? The person that said patience is a virtue, couldn't they say patience is a gift so someone could give me some? I think that once I start working out and I am able to feel better about myself along with having some type of stress exscape I will be better equiped to handle her on days like today. I've been really good with my scripture reading also which I know if I stick to it that will help me out too. Other than going crazy with the kids our little family is doing good. I just need some zanex or prozac and I'll be 100%!

Sick little kids!

So I still have not been able to start my work outs, which is really frustrating but the reason for not starting helps. I had to work and now i have asick kid that won't let me do anything but hold him. But as soon as he takes a nap today, Eliptical here I come! I have to get these workouts going! I want to do a Partial marathon and the only way I can is if I start now. Also one of the women I work with wants to do a 5K with me so I really need to get going! I didn't blog yesterday because I thought for some reason I had already done it when I got off work that morning, but as I blog today I see I missed the day. It's ok, I'll do better from here on out.
I took Kamryn to see princess and the frog the other day. It was a really cute movie but I think she was more interested in running around the theater and yelling to hear her voice echo. It was funny and not bad because there was only like 8 other people in the entire theater with us. Maybe we'll go see it again so that she can watch it instead of running around the theater. She was so cute walking to our seats carrying her little popcorn and drink. She carried it to her seat all by her self. She even shared it with me! I think that's about the only thing that's happened since my last blog. Other than my mail situation......but that's a different story for another blog. Maybe later today when a certain child takes a nap and I have more time~

Start of the New Year

So I have started my New Year's resolutions and am trying to be good with my eating and snacking but it's so hard working nights. I just need to make sure I only buy healthy food at the grocery store and don't carry any cash with me to work, then I won't be tempted. As far as good deeds, nothing yet but it's only three days in and working out? yeah.....uh, I am starting tomorrow! I will have to do it first thing in the morning when I get home from work. I'll just do it before I go to bed and probably work out five times a week, just the week days. But that's good I think! Going from nothing to five! We'll see...One last thing to say is that I really am trying to be optimistic about this coming year. I'm hoping I really stick with my goals and plans. I need to succeed to be a better me. To be happy with the person I am. There really is nothing else to it! Hope everyone was safe over the holiday break and Let's get things back to normal!

New Years~

So we decided to try and go sledding yesterday......Well! The good news is that neither of my kids broke their leg, the bad news is that the four year old daughter of the guy we went with did. We went out to a place called Dellwood Park. When we drovce up I said to robert "there is no way! this is not a hill for kids." Luckily my daredevil was sleeping so robert said he would take tristan so I could stay in the car while she slept. They went down once and got pelted with snow. the hill was a sheet of pure ice. Robert said that he was nervous going down it becuase he had no control what so ever and couldn't slow them down. Well....everyone made it down the hill alright but walking back up the hill our friend was walking by his daughter and slipped, purely an accident and landed on her leg, breaking it in two places. So Robert ran up to me Gave me tristan and went back to help our friend up the hill. We drove to Silver Cross where we sat for almost 4 hours while they did x-rays and found two clean breaks which is good becuase it meant they didn't have to set her leg, They splinted it and she'll get a hard cast in a couple days. What a great way to end the year! In the ER! I'm just grateful that all she did was break it and no-one else was hurt or it wasn't worse. As far as the New years goes.....yeah, I said happy new years and hit the hay! I'm just an old woman I guess! But I'm so stoked to start all my resolutions! I haven't worked out today yet because it's been to hard to get the time! BUT I sure found time to blog! ha ha ha! I'm going to take my before pictures tonight and get my weight and all my stats I can so I can start when I get home in the morning. I have to work tonight. I figure it will probably be easiest to work out after work. The kids will still be sleeping and I'll have the house alone! I can be a fool and not worry! Well!! good luck to me we'll see how it goes!
