I love my kids!  

Erin, I mean it about helping out with the kids. And I wish I could get a breather from kids and hubby, but the breather from hubbyis just as good. Sorry about your lungs....ugh! *squeeze* hugs

tracy-just me n t for the weekend....yay!

I'm outside in the hammock, tori's sleeping, and I have the baby monitor next to me.....life is good!

Erin~ HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!! Sounds like 37 is treating you okay.....better than it will for me in a few months. I don't see myself beginning the day with a run! (nooo.....!) Hope your chest loosens up and your breathing feels less stressed! Hate colds!!

Liz~ Hammock.....I like that idea!! Wish I had two trees to hang one. I just have one MASSIVE oak tree!

My nephew's team lost their first game in the playoffs tonight. They'll have to keep winning to stay in the tournament, but it wasn't a huge loss (2-1) so I hope they'll be able to do well in the end.

After the game, I walked the walking track around the ballfield to equal 3 miles and then watched the other teams in the league to see who he is going to play next. I'm gonna miss baseball season....I'm probably the only one, but it's not my kid and I use it for "something to do". Beats boredom!!

I love my kids!  

Erin, Happy belated birthday!
Tracy, I do that, too. Only my nieces softball games for something to do.

I am addicted to the Steve Wilko's show...he just called some guy a "Fat boy"and a "FlapJack" Hahahaha.

Our huge M4B's in Pittsburgh is coming up on the 10th. Mike and I are going to volunteer in the mission tent. Channeling the word of SYS. I'm pretty excited about that, I'm hoping to see some familiar faces(cough, cough, Erin&Ellen((who I think is out of town for the walk))) Either way, it will be nice, I hope we have nice weather.

That's about all I got, bbl...

Liz~ That's a late walk.....well, I guess it's all relative to what you're use to. We can't wait that long or people would die of heat exhaustion!!!

Where is everyone else today?? I'm telling ya, when I'm off work, everyone is busy with something, but as soon as classes start for me on Monday, you girls will be chatting it up!

Mom to Donovyn (32 weeker), Tristyn (34 weeker), and Naethyn (30 weeker born sleeping)  

Erin - Happy Belated Birthday! Kids have been out of school for a week. It's incredibly warm here EARLIER than I remember. Urgh, we stock up on popsicles and sunscreen for sure:) Our outside time is early in the morning and after the sun has gone down. Still HOT though . . .

Tracy - I did see that news story this morning! Too funny! Wonder what they'd charge to clean my house?

Liz - Weekend w/out hubby can be a good thing. Your hammock sounds dreamy. Always have wanted to get one of those. Hope T is napping well for you.

My Mr. T may have an ear infection, so I have an appt. for him this afternoon (remember the time difference). Want to find out before the weekend to avoid going to urgent care. Nothing else going on really, just making phone calls for this and that, and adding my son's name to wait lists for therapies. It might be Miller time soon.

Angel Love - Jun 2, 2012 2:23 am (#231 Total: 236)  

 

Lindsay~ LOL---"Miller Time"!!! I haven't heard that in a while....made me giggle!!

Yet again, I've accomplished nothing in my home today, but I did get another great walk in today. I should use my much needed squats for picking up the junk in my house shouldn't I??? Yes, I should......should!

My nephew plays baseball in the morning....win, he plays for the championship on Monday, lose and he's done for the season. Fingers crossed for a big win tomorrow!!!

mom to Emily (36 weeker)- 8 yo, Alaina (33 weeker)- 5 yo, Matthew (37 weeker)- 3 yo  

Hey ladies well I am back and here are the answers to the BLOG QUIZ!!!!
1. Leigh (Tucker Ray- our fighting tiger)
2. Samantha (Samarella journal)
3. Donna (Tales from the Schweitzer side)
4. Enrique (My little baby guy
5. Tracy (Angel Love)
6. mommy to sophia's journey from having a preemie & recent

Things have beenm so crazy. I know I always say this but I alway feel like I am running and when I finally have time to sit and chat, I fall asleep.
We had Emily's 8th birthday on May 12 and she had 2 parties. One was family and cose friends and the following weekend was school friends. Then the 27th was Matthews 3rd birthday. He had his family party on his birthday and his kiddie party will be with Alainas birthday party at the end of June. # kids born within a 6 week period is crazy. It drives me nuts because in between we still have mothers day and fathers day.
Well I will try to e around more and I am going to make an effort to go on at least every other day, cause I miss you guys <3 <3

Tracy - I watched a lot of tv growing up, but mostly I remember the commercials:) Didn't get much picked up at my house either, but I'm trying to tackle another pile today. Baseball games are fun to watch! Are there concessions? Nothing like a dog and beer! I guess I've been craving it, so I did go out and get some Michelob Ultra.

Geri - Happy Belated Birthdays to your kiddos! Lots of non-stop cake going on in your house:) Yummy!

Mr. T had an ear infection. We filled his Rx and already seems to be doing better. I think this is his second ear infection total, but now that he's started to dive for rings in the pool, he may be one of those kiddos who gets swimmer's ear often.

Lindsay: Poor Mr. T.... I used to add 2 drops of alcohol to each ear after swimming to S and it worked, that was my ped advice.... The furniture was borrowed by a store whose owner is a friend of my SIL, but most of the chairs and decorations in the beach pergola is from my own home..... I took some furniture from my house.....

Tracy: that "cleaning Fairy" that is breaking homes, must be a compulsive obsessive cleaning person.... I was wondering how is going to collect the money ppl own her (i assume is a woman since she is cleaning) she better ask for a job......

Geri: Happy Belated Birthdays to your children..... wow 2 parties for Emily..... great!

Liz: glad you are enjoying the summer.....

Erin: Yes miss V is the drama queen... specially when is her father around...... I don't pay attention to her as she must want me to, but my DH is so concern with her crying.....

Jessica: thank you......xoxox

So I feel better since I was able to sleep better these past days.....

We went to an amusement park here, the kids and one neighbor, friend of S, it was all too sunny day, then suddenly black clouds, and started raining horrible with wind and thunders..... we got all soaked since the parking lot is so far away...... so we are her in the house all dry and cover watching a movie.... S and his friend are playing Wii..... miss V favorite The Toad Princess as miss V calls her (Tiana I think is her name)...... Speaking of weirdness, miss V loves to take medicines, the worst taste the better...... I have to hide them well, since she cries for the medicines......
Weekends I stop S medicine, I know I shouldn't, but really is amazing how he eats when he is not taking it, I feel so bad, like I am starving my kid purposely ..... I feel so bad.....

Happy WE

Replying to: ethan&casey's mom (Jun 1, 2012 1:52 am)
Hi all, Just a quick check in to say hello. it's late and i won't remember everything, so i'll try......

Erin: Stefano starts school mid of January and ends it mid of October, so it is 10 months of school more or less..... they have 1 week off in March/ April and 2 weeks off in June.....Elementary school are 6 grades, middle school are 3 and high school are 3.....but there is an estimated that only 50% of population finish middle school .....30% high school and just 5% of populations ends college and 2% university.... so here is really a privilege to go to school......
