Happy New Year!
I can't believe I'm the first to post in 2009! Anyway, I want to wish all of you a very happy and wonderful 2009.
I also can't believe how blessed I was in 2008. Not only did I conceive a child, but I carried her to term and gave birth to her on November 7. She is a beautiful, easy, happy baby who is just now starting to really smile with recognition and show hints of a true personality. Unfortunately, she is also a handful. Add her to the toddler-sized handful that is her big sister and my life is a whirlwind of dirty diapers, feedings and baths (none of which are mine, it seems). But I've got nowhere to go and nothing better to do so my time is devoted to them. I come last, right? Right. But not for long.
My resolution for 2009 is to take care of Me. Mentally, physically, emotionally, etc. Like Dr. Phil (or whoever) said, "the best gift you can give your kids is a healthy mommy". I've got to do it this year. I can't come last anymore. But if not me, who? It's really a connundrum of sorts.
Wow, I can really ramble. This is why I don't blog, y'all.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Hey Ladies!!!
If someone reads this post the link on BTBBC so everyone can understand. Today earlier, at some point in time, my computer was hacked. Several of my accounts were hacked including facebook, myspace, and Xanga. No one knows my passwords, and they are so complicated to guess that I'm surprized that they were able to figure them out, I use the same password for most everything. I've changed all my passwords, deleted accounts to multiple things and wiped my computer and reinstalled everything. I can't risk my info out like that. I'm sorry. I will miss you ladies, if any of you would like to chat you can contact me at TweetiePiesMommy@ ymail.com minus the space after the at symbol.

FRIDAY!!!!
The day of so much hope and so much promise....another long week is behind you, and the weekend hold endless possibilities....
I know as the holidays grow closer, we become more and more scheduled, not like we are not already...
But each week when this magical day hits, I look at the weekend and smile....2 days to be with my whole family all day long, things I want to get done, that might actually happen, hopefully some time to snuggle with Keith and the kids to watch movies and take it easy!
All of it makes me smile and makes me thankful it is FRIDAY!

Things I am thankful for....
My children: Even when they do not sleep and are screaming, I cannot believe the miracle that they are, and how I am so blessed to have them.
Keith: I have never known love like the love he gives me, we are best friends, but beyond that I have found someone who adores me...He is everything I have ever wanted in a partner
My Parents: For teaching me all that I know and for being the most amazing support system ever..
My brother: I know no matter what our relationship is like, I can call and he will be there for me...
My IL's: For raising the amazing man I married, even though I sometimes do not agree with what they say and do, they did good when raising Keith.
My friends: I have crazy friendships that expand all over the place and through cyberspace and beyond....I have these relationships with all different people and I feel so very blessed to know that I am loved...and that if I need a shoulder to cry, to bitch, moan and scream, or to laugh about something funny, all I have to do is pick up the phone, or log on....it is nice to know that
I feel even in these hard economic times I am more blessed than I could ever imagine....Life is good and the Good Lord has been very good to me...
HAPPY THANKSGIVING...

Showering as a mom of two...
So I needed to get a shower this morning, Bailey is chillin in her boppy on the couch, sound asleep, and I do not want to move her and possibly wake her up....Sammy is watching Doodlebops, so I think perfect oppourtunity.
So here is my shower....
Me: Sammy...I am getting in the shower you be good...and do not touch mommy's laptop
Get in shower, start water, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Wet hair, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Lather hair with shampoo, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Rinse hair, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Put Conditioner in hair, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Lather up with soap, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Rinse hair and body, look around the curtain to see what Sammy is doing, check on Bailey and my laptop.
Finally I am done....And of course she was an angel the whole time....and my shower took twice as long because of my constant checking on her, but I know if I did not check on her, my laptop would be laying on the ground, probably next to Bailey, and Sammy would be running around like crazy....

Time is a constant.
This was my morning. From getting out of bed, to getting out of the door 45 minutes actually passed. But with -AH- toddler in tow it felt like 4.5 hours.
-If we had been moving any slower this morning, we would have been moving backwards. In fact I'm pretty sure at one point we were. I'm certain I saw myself pass by; she didn't look any better.
-For every 2 steps forward there were 500 back, 5 to the right, 5 to the left; 10 hops, 6 stomps with the right foot, 4 with the left; 20 hip wiggles, 2 back arches, and 45 "shut-ups". One of these days, one of them is going to be uttered by me.
-3 Time Outs where given. If you assume that 10 minutes is wasted in trying to get a child to behave prior to the time out, 36 minutes was dedicated to behavior modification. That means I had 9 minutes to myself. Which is why I look like I just got out of bed.
-If Fiona wants to act like a schizophrenic, that's fine. If the dog wants to act likewise, the dog is going to get his butt thrown in time out also.
I sometimes feel they only way I'm going to make it to work on time is if I make a deal with the devil.
