Changes

The girls are getting ready for some changes even though they don't know it yet. I have been working hard to get Rylen's room clean and all of her clothes sorted and put away and I have been putting some of Adilynn's things in Rylen's room because in a few weeks Rylen will be getting a "big girl" bed aka toddler bed and her and Adi will be sharing a room. This is going to be a big change for both of them. I'm a little worried but it all, I worry that Rylen wont stay in her bed or her room, I worry that the girl will wake each other up at night especially since Adilynn still wakes up to nurse atleast 2 times a night everynight and Rylen sometimes wakes up with night terrors. I still have alot of stuff to go through in Rylen's room before we can get her bed. I just hope everything works out and they can happily share a room together.

My friend Miranda is also going through some life changes and I can't think of a better time than now for her to get a makeover! Now more than ever is when she needs to feel strong and beautiful and it's about time she does something for herself, she is always doing stuff for everyone but never does anything for herself and I can't wait to get to play "dress up" with her! We are going to my mom's work so she can get a hair cut because she hasn't had one in forever and then we are going to sally's to pick up some hair color and she wants me to do highlights in her hair since she has never had her hair colored this should be fun. After her hair is looking sexy I will straighten or maybe give her some pretty curls and maybe a little makeup too! She will be looking hot for her date night with her hubby. I can't wait! I'm getting way to excited about this.

Some other changes might be coming too. I haven't had a period in almost 3 months and I'm starting to get a little worried, I know I need to go buy a pregnancy test but I'm just too scared, I'm just not ready to have another baby right now.

Diaper testing

So Miranda went to the diaper tester meeting today, I had a good time getting out and talking to other adults! We go back for another meeting in 2 weeks. Unfortunately I can talk about the products we are testing...bummer.

Guinea pig!

Tomorrow the girls and I are going with Miranda to cotton babies to be diaper tester! I'm so excited to get to see what type of diaper we will get to try. I really love cotton babies products and getting to do this with a friends makes it that much more exciting. Miranda and I don't get to hang out much so I'm looking foward to getting to see her.

Feeling crafty

I'm feeling crafty today! I have some new fabric and patterns that have been waiting for a few months to be made into something beautiful. So today I'm going to try my hardest to make a little time to get some sewing done but it might be hard since I am babysitting today.

Sitting here listening to Russ play guitar and sing while the girls try to sing with him! Theres nothing I love more than listening to him play and sing, he is so talented and has such a great voice even though he dosn't believe me when I tell him. I love everything about this man!!! Ok well I can do without the little hairs he leaves all over sink when he shaves and cuts his hair but other than that I love everything about him.

4-15-2010 Zac got his first soccer injury

Zac got his first soccer injury at practice and he is pretty proud of it! The kid he was playing with kicked the soccer ball as hard as he could and it hit Zac right in the nose. I saw it happen in slow motion, I thought he would just shake it off and keep playing but then I saw his coach take off his shirt and wrap it around Zac's face and then I knew he was really hurt and I ran on the field to make sure he was ok.
The coach thought he may have broken his nose because he was bleeding soooooo much, one of the parent's ( I think he was a doctor) had a huge first aid kit in his car and gave Zac an ice pack. After about 10 minutes of holding the ice pack and the shirt on his nose the bleeding stoped and Zac said he had to get back out there and practice some more, so he ran back on the field with a bloody face and finished his practice. His coach and Russ and I were very proud of him!

Trying to stay positive

I have been finding it hard to stay positive lately and it's really starting to wear me down. There just arn't enough hours in the day to get everything I need to done. Between the kids, housework, soccer, trying to start my own business, family outings, trying to make time for friends and just spending quality time with the family I don't have a minute to myself. I have always had a hard time being a positive person and trying to look at the good in everything... Thats just not who I am but I try very hard and It's even harder when life is so busy. Thankfully Russ has always been there to "center" me and make me take a step back, a few deep breaths and really make the best of things I really don't know what I would do without that man!

Love, peace and happiness!

I haven't had much time to blog lately but I really want to try to start it up again. Life has been crazy the past few weeks. Our weekdays are filled with playing outside in the wonderful weather we have been having, going to the park, running errands and trying to keep up with housework. Our weekends are filled with soccer games, going on family outings, playing outside and just enjoying eachother.

I have also been trying to find the time to clean out my laundry room and turn it into a laundry/sewing room so I can start my online business. I think it will be a great way to bring in some extra money while doing something I really love doing! I am on the hunt for the perfect desk/table to sew at, so far I haven't found one that meets all of my expectations but I will keep looking until I find the perfect one!

I have been feeling very good about everything in my life right now. I have a great man, he is so much more than I could have ever asked for and he is such a wonderful daddy that never wants to miss a minute of his kids lives. Even though we have our rough days when we can't agree on anything we always make up and come out stronger!
I have a wonderful family! 3 great kids that make me smile every minute and keep me on my toes. what more could I ever ask for?

I have been thinking alot about our future lately and weather or not I want to have more kids. I have to say while I alway thought I wanted 4 kids I am so content and happy with the way my life is right now that I think 3 is a wonderful number...for now at least. I don't know how I will feel in a few year but for now I think that 3 is great! But if in the future we have another one that would be great too. I'm just going to leave it all in god's hands!

Today I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful man in my life! A man that tells me everyday how beautiful and sexy I am regardless of what I look like that day. When I haven't had a shower in days, my hair is a mess, I'm covered in baby food and I have been wearing the same dirty clothes for 3 days he still runs his hands through my hair, pulls me close and looks me in the eyes tells me how beautiful I am and then give me a great big kiss...sigh... I couldn't have found a more wonderful man!
