Has 2011 Been Any Better?

If I had to answer the question, Has 2011 Been Any Better?, I would say not so much.
1. We have had to put alot of money into our SUV's for repairs.
2. We have had to deal with a garbage disposal and dishwasher going on the fritz, but that was an easy fix. 
It just took a couple of days before I broke down to call the plumber. Hey you have to give your husband a chance, Right?
3. There was the new water heater we had to purchase.
4. Gas prices are on the rise, increasing more and more. I have never heard my debit card cry so much.
5. The kids have been really into not listening or helping with chores.
6. Books I own are becoming new artistic masterpieces. at least the walls are safe, for now.
7. There is alot that has changed our lives, this year, but it has not been as bad as 2010.

If I Could Explain Today


If I could explain today it would come down to this. A headache that would not go away. A 14 month old daughter who wanted to chew/bite on my leg. A cat who I will probably never see again, and a mystery of who peed in the 5 yr olds bed. I have been trying to do things but either my body or mind will not let me. I am lost in a world of facebook because at least there I can accomplish things. I ask for help and I get a half ass response to it most of the time. I try to change things, to make it where everything has a place, but when I do that it does not stick. I make room, places for the items but they still end up on the floor. I get frustrated and end up saying this is why I do not do anything. I try to get dinner done on time but end up not making the deadline before my husband has to go to work. I feel bad that my house is the way it is but I am trying. I worked on my room for an hour and ended up throwing my back out. I find things broken and I get even downer than I was before. I can't buy what I need or want because I do not have the money. I can't pay for the chiropractor or for theapy right now and it hurts so bad because I am feeling like a failure. I want to be more involved but there are many things stopping me for doing what I want. I can make plans but they never stick. I guess it is just hard to work around school, appointments for seven people, people coming into my house, emergencies, and money. What do I do? Pray, scream, sell what I can to make it through the day, week, month. I am trying and people say it is ok but do they really mean it. Creditors are calling and we are getting bills that we thought were taking care of. I hate 2010, nothing good has really come from this year, or nothing I can remember. We are alive and healthy for the moment. We are together. All I can say it there is three plus months left to go and I pray 2011 will show us a silver lining.

Short Hair for Summer

Logan and his goofy smile.
Tristan 9 now and growing more and more everyday. Told me to cut more off then this, said he wanted to be like the avatar.
Now this is better. His eyes are so amazing and just plain beautiful. Logan is 7 in this picture and he is just as tall as his brother.

9 Months Old /Easter Time



10 Months Old


Haedyn and Maelyn being hams.
Rarely do they get along.
Both girls are growing like weeds and are as you can tell not alike in anyway, shape, or form. Their personalities are different as well.
Look at her first tooth, the second is coming in right next to it. She enjoys music and sings with me while on my lap. Haedyn is a mover and a shaker, using things to help her crawl. She is not afraid to fall on her butt and is using caution to make sure she hardly lands that way, bending at will. She is into trying anything that momma has on her plate, but has limits. She is a hardy eatter and has lost her chubbiness, getting more lengthy. She has a soft voice, unless she is looking for me. Still a momma's girl and a late nighter, she keeps her daddys hours.
Maelyn, army crawling and slowly getting on her hands and knees to baby crawl. She has no teeth yet and we are just waiting for them to pop through. Her eyes are more brown now and we don't know if they are going to change anymore. She is catching up to Haedyn physically, as Haedyn is catching up to her verbally. She falls asleep quite well and has a regular bedtime. She has a demanding appetite and is not afraid to us her outside voice. She enjoys music and falls asleep to just about anything, she will wake up in the middle of the night or the morning and sing to herself.

Mother's Day


Flowers from my husband to celebrate being a wonderful mother!
