Maybe he'll think twice next time

So, last night when I got home from my CPR training Dan told me that he was talking about me at work. He said he was complaining about how much time I spend on the computer, specifically on Cafe Mom in my IK group. He said that my good friend R got kinda mad and was defending me. He said she thought he was calling me a bad mother or something.

It kinda makes me upset that he was complaining about it in the first place. The only time I AM on it for a long period of time is when he is home. I obviously can't be on it for hours when I little kids running around. Some days it is my ONLY adult interaction! AND I do have a business that is based pretty much ON my computer! So half the time when he thinks I'm on CafeMom I'm putting in a jewelry order or adding up someone's daycare bill! MEN!

Anyway, thanks R for sticking up for me! Next time maybe he'll think twice about where he opens his mouth!

Koleton and McClainisms

The boys have been saying and doing some interesting things lately. So I thought I would share them with you!

*Koleton fell asleep on the couch and rolled off. He climbed back on the couch but was still kind of awake (or so I thought) He then got up and went into the kitchen. I caught him trying to pee in the garbage can.

*One day Koleton spent the majority of the day in his zip up footie jammies. He then had to go pee. I heard the toilet flush followed by screaming. He apparently snagged the tip of his penis in the zipper. OOPS! He wanted a band aid on it. I said no and then was grateful he didn't ask me to kiss it better!

*The same day the as the zipper incident McClain woke up early from his nap. He has pooped his diaper. Apparently he didn't want to be poopy so he took his diaper off and wiped his butt with his socks!

*This weekend both boys were out in the shop with Dan. Dan came in the house holding McClain who had one shoe and sock off. I asked why and Dan told me Koleton said McClain was in the Hospital having a baby and apparently Koleton was helping deliver :)
I know there are more but that is all the comes to me right now :)

Having little boys.

So today has been pretty wierd. I had my first appt with the nurse today. That went fine. After my appt I stopped at a girlfriends house to drop off something. I ran inside and left my car running. When I came back my car was dead and it wouldn't start. So, I determined that I needed gas. I had parked on a hill and I think that is why it wouldn't start. So, I borrowed her car, called my mom to go relieve my in laws at my house and ran home to get a gas can. Sure enough that was the problem. SO, lesson learned. If you don't have much gas don't leave your car running while parked on a hill.

So, I didn't get home until about 12. Koleton was still in his jammies and I thought, why change him now. I fed the boys lunch and layed the little ones down for a nap. I decided to shampoo my carpet while they were sleeping. When I got done Koleton ran to go potty. After I heard the toilet flush he started BAWLING! Now the jammies he is wearing are footy, zip up jammies. I ask him what is wrong and he says he zipped his wiener! OH GAWD! So I looked at it to make sure its not bleeding. Its not. He apparently just caught the tip of it. OUCH! So then he says he wants a band aid on his wiener! Umm, NO! At least he didn't ask me to kiss it!

I'm bored

Where is everyone? I can only handle so much laundry on a Sunday morning before going crazy! The boys are actually playing nice together in their room and not bugging me and Dan is in the shop! I need my girls!

I don't have it so bad

You know, I think that more often than not we focus on the negatives in our life. We forget to look as all the positives. I had a conversation this morning with a lady that made me really think.

This woman is actually my cousin but we are distant. Her daughter is in the same class as Koleton and she always waits for me in the mornings and sits with all the daycare kids so I don't have to unload all 5 or 6 of them and take them in to the class with me. This is a HUGE help. I am so gratefull to her for this.

Anyway, she drives a hunk of junk car while her husband drives a nice new pickup. He had another truck which was pretty new and nice but decided he needed a better one just a couple months ago. So he went out and bought this while his wife is driving this crap car. I mean, it is BAD. It runs but she has to climb through the passenger side to get to the drivers side because her drivers side door is falling off. So, Dan is going to look at it for her to see if he can fix it. She is so gratefull and says she'll pay for him to fix it. I say NO WAY! She does me such a huge favor by sitting with the kids I TOTALLY don't expect her to pay.

So, I was telling her that Dan and I both feel bad for her. I drive the nicer of our vehicles and I really feel thats how it should be. I'm the one toting the kids around all day. And so does she. She pays her mom to watch her kids even when her husband is off work because he won't watch them. He barely started watching her oldest who is almost 5. He is VERY selfish.

I told her that Dan really pisses me off sometimes but he really does put his family first. He would NEVER make me take them to someone because he didn't want to watch them. In fact, he gets mad at Dads that say they are 'babysitting' their own kids.

So, I realized I don't have it as bad as I sometimes think. Although, Dan is SO not sympathetic with pregnancy he is still a good Dan and Husband. After my conversation this morning I called him and told him I loved him because he is a good guy :)

Bluck

So I started out this morning puking. Luckily it was over before any kids started arriving. My kids are used to it by now. Poor things. After I took Koleton to school I forced down some breakfast and was feeling pretty good. This afternoon though I have been so tired and not feeling very good. The boys had a horrible time sleeping last night so I'm sure that is partly why I am so tired. They were both in and out of our bed all night. Yawn...

I must admit I had a pretty good weekend. Dan's niece stayed the night with us Friday. This is good because we used to have her all the time but ever since his brother became a Moron, I mean a Mormon we NEVER see her. Well, she begged her dad to stay with us so that was fun. I took 3 kids to the mall Sat. I will NOT do that again. I did end up finding the boys their Easter outfits for cheap. I was hoping to find a nice coat for McClain for next year but no luck.

Saturday night we all went to our friends house and played pictionary. Dan and I only fought minimally which is good since we usually get so annoyed with each other during this game. It was good times.

Sunday morning was more good times. We all layed around the house and watched a movie until about 10. Then at 11 I was off to CPS to scrap with some girlfriends. Had a GREAT time. Thanks Kristie! She is so fun and so awesome! I really enjoy getting away for awhile and hanging with these girls. There is always LOTS of laughter. Well thats all for now.

D, J, and K...I am praying for you guys. You will be OK. Just hang in there.

Produce sale

This morning after I dropped Koleton off at school McClain, Zoey and I headed for the Rosauers Produce Sale. I got so much stuff and I only spent $43! I have been craving fruit so this sale was perfect for me. I got oranges, apples, grapefruit, pineapple, onions, potatoes, green peppers, carrots and spinach. Oh yeah, mushrooms too. I'm thinking about making fajitas for dinner tomorrow. I hate shopping when it is busy but this sale is AWESOME! If you get a chance you should go. Oh yeah, I also got spaghetti sauce for $.88 a can, 12 yogurts for $5 and they had chicken breast for $1.99 a lb. I still can't believe I only spent $43! I love it when I can save a buck

So, as far as being pregnant goes. I so wish I would have felt this good with the boys. I hardly even feel pregnant this time. At least compared to how I felt with the boys. I lost 20 lbs with Koleton. Never gained an ounce. Dr. was always threatening me that he was going to put me in the hospital on IVs. It was BAD. Pretty much was the same with McClain. Except I was only sick for 8 months verses 10 months.

This time though, I really don't get sick until bed time. Which means no hanky panky for the hubs. Last night was pretty bad. I was laying in bed and he opened some saugages up in the kitchen just to put 2 into a new bag and the smell made me soooo sick. I also need to give the dog a bath because his smell is really making me sick. He doesn't really stink but I can't stand his odor. Smells are getting to me worse this time.

Since this pregnancy is so different everyone keeps thinking it is a girl this time. But I'm not holding my breath until this kid pops out and I know for sure.

Its Raining, its Pouring!

The old man is snoring. What is with this weather??? UGH! I just want to get out of the house and go play outside. The weather is too nasty to do anything though. So, instead I'm stuck inside cleaning! YUCK!

I just scrubbed the sink and now I'm getting ready to move to the bathroom. The computer room is on the way to the bathroom so I took a pit stop. I'm gonna scrub the tub and then work on the toilet. Hopefully, I can get rid of the yuck pee smell thanks to the boys peeing everywhere but IN the toilet! Can I have a girl this time??
