Confession

i really like Hannah Montana...the music and the tv show....i love the song Rockstar...seriously.....

Observation

I'm just sayin...30+ year old moms, who drive mini vans, don't work outside the home and tote vera bradley bags should NOT be wearing pants with p i n k splashed across the behind. I'm just sayin.....

Changing Clothes

so my 3 year old likes to change clothes several times throughout the day. it's seriously driving me nuts. why oh why can't she just put on one outfit and make it last the whole day. her new thing is her clothes are "hurting me" so i had to change. does she have a new issue or is she just being her independent strong willed self and making something up so i will give in to her need to change? it's crazy and i'm freaking sick of the laundry she's creating!!

Sick

so i've been sick this week. i think i've had some form of the flu. it sucks to be sick, pregnant and taking care of 3 kids. needless to say my house looks like crap, my husband feels neglected and we've eaten crap all week. not a highlight week to put on my mom resume. thankfully i'm feeling a little better today. i guess i'll have to tackle the house tomorrow. yikes!

School Holidays

So today is a holiday - President's Day and my kids didn't have preschool. Usually such interruptions to my routine irritate me but today it hasn't been bad to have everyone home. We all slept in this morning and then we went to the gym where I attempted a dance class called Zumba. Seriously when God handed out rhythm he totally skipped me. Thankfully there were a lot of people in the class so I couldn't see myself too much in the mirror. The instructor said we burned 800 calories. Seriously?? Could that be right? If so I need a freakin donut!

So this afternoon I broke down and let the big girls watch a movie while the baby is sleeping. Is it really such a big deal for kids to watch a movie? If not why do I feel so guilty? Why do we moms let ourselves feel guilty for doing what we think is right for our children. The guilt will drive you insane!

Old Friends and New Blogs

Over the weekend I was emailed a link to an old college friend's blog. Just thinking about her has me flooded with memories. I've lost touch with this friend over the years but it's been fun to read about her life this weekend. It's funny how the friends you least expect will end up soccer moms indeed become them.

As I've read her blog this weekend I realized how much I wanted to update mine and keep it going. I think it's somewhat therapeutic to have a place to write down those random thoughts that creep into your head and won't go away. Or when you want to brag about your kids and you just can't tell even your bff. Or when you really want to gripe about how your husband can't pick up his dirty clothes off the floor - with a blog you have an avenue of release so to speak.

So I'm going to try to start this thing again...we'll see where it goes!
