My HEAD!!!

Okay day 3 of my head HURTING!!I feel like my eyes are two boiled eggs. On top of it it’s been one hell of a day. Woke up at 4:30am to a crying baby. Felt like nails on a chalk board. He’d peed. Poor guy. So I changed him quick in the great hope he’d fall back a sleep again.. nope. He was up and ready for play. Okay.. lets hang out. I tried everything.. fed him, petted him, even tried playing dead just in the possibility that he’d give in. Nope.  

So now we are up. Head hurting, tired and kinda pissed. But then I look at him, with his sweet smile looking up at me. How could I be mad? So that’s where my day started.

After that I tried with all my might just to make it through. Just survive the day till my Husband came home. My friend had arrived to show pity on me and help me with my day. I love my Mindy and it was a great treat. It was at this point after running late of course we ran out the door. Then it happened. My Van was DEAD!!! No lights , no sound silence. You have GOT to be kidding. So we scramble out of my van ushering the kids quickly into her van. Thankfully she has two kids of her own not at the time present with us. Allowing my children to borrow their seats. We drop off Johnpaul at preschool.

One down several things to go. We arrive back home only to sit on the phone rallying with Kia on what to do. The tow truck arrives and steals away my broken Van. Bye bye Larry the Van.

So Now we are faced with this. Our van has a warrantee till 60,000 miles… we are at 53,783. So this fix should be covered but what about next time. Now we are left till Monday, Tuesday and possibly WEDNESDAY with NO transportation.

Now we are in the market for a new van. We are looking into a Honda Odyssey 2010. Through Costco it looks to be a great deal.

My head hurts, I am stressed out.

Oh sweet sleep.. I’m heading to bed.

Traditions

I just wanted to share!!

My little guy Christian Michael got baptized today!!

He in great tradition wore the gown that his Great Great Grandmother made.

His Grandfather James wore it, his Daddy and two brothers wore it too!!!

From my side of tradition was the ring you see on the sash of all three. That was a baby ring made from my great Grandmother's Wedding ring for my Mother that she wore when she was baptized and then all three of my guys too.

 I love traditions. I pray they keep some sort of tradition. It makes things a bit more special. Sadly I have not yet been baptized, so this spring/ summer I plan on making tradition stick through me too.

Crazy is my Life

Wow.... My guys have been super charged these days. Thus the main reason for the lack of posts these days. I just plain haven't had two moments to rub together. Lately it seems my 2 year old and almost 4 year old are entering their teen age years. Worse they are Teen aged Girls!!! But they are two little boys. The crying screaming whining and that's just been me. Kidding of coarse lol 

They have been coming up with all sorts of crazy stuff these days. Like the other night. To set the scene… We are sitting at dinner having some yummy Greek take out. We got Johnpaul his favorite soup. He goes to take a bite and says and I quote lol!!! “What the Hell is this??!!” I almost fell off my chair!!! The look on my Husband’s face was priceless!!!

Man the stuff kids come up with. They grow too fast. I love that time of the night when everyone is sleeping. I should be sleeping and I go in still pull back up the covers and kiss their sweet faces. Life is good. Being Mom is surprising crazy but by far the best and most rewarding thing anyone could call me.
