Ultrasound??!!??

Today I had an ultrasound FOR MY GALLBLADDER (just to clear the air) and I had to bring all 3 kids. While Baby Beau (we went back to the original spelling since that is the first four letter in beautiful) never cries, she decided the way into the hospital was a great time to cry very hard!! P and A were following me and on their best behavior!!

While we don't have a lot of kids by any means, people like to look at us when we are out (I can't wait until I have the 4th). Anyway, the waiting room at the hospital was packed. I walked up to the counter to register and I said I was here for an ultrasound....I swear time started going really slowly and everyone looked at me...okay fine just half the waiting room but they looked...looked like HOLY SHIT, THAT CHIC IS HAVING ANOTHER ONE ALREADY????? Anyway, I cleared the air proclaiming it was for a gallbladder...not a uterus...ALTHOUGH I have to say, (call me crazy) I wouldn't mind!!

While I was sitting in the waiting room, a lady in her 60's asked how old the kids were and when I told her she said, "I could NEVER have kids like that. I only had 2 and they were 4.5 years apart. It takes a special person to have kids like that..."

And here I want 2 more....and so I ask....special person or crazy person????

Mommy's Helper....NOT

I may be in divorce court over this post but so worth it....

Babies don't cry...

First of all, while we were moving with our baby only being 2 weeks old, I ran across a book I got at discharge after having the baby. It said that the first few weeks after bringing a new baby home, you should keep your life as simple as possible!! That made me laugh so hard considering I was sitting in the middle of our new closet with stuff all around me IN BOXES!! Considering we managed to live through that smiles on our faces confirms that we can handle a couple more kids (although my donor has openly agreed to one more, he has said nothing about two more...which is good thing, right?)!!

Today I asked P to see if the baby was still asleep in the pack n' play. He told me she was awake but then told me that she was so quiet...and then said, 'babies don't cry.' I had to explain to him that yes babies do cry...just not ours!! Here I told him for 9 months how much babies cry....She is such a good baby!! Honestly....so calm, peaceful, sweet and happy and sleeping through the night (a hell of a lot more than I can say for myself)!!

I have to go clean but just wanted to blog for a little bit!!

Here I am......

We have been so hectic with the new baby, moving, the holidays, R's B-Day, A's 2nd B-Day, oh yeah and unpacking....needless to say, I have been unable to escape to the office to blog and the laptop is not working AGAIN!! My friend sent me a facebook message and asked me if I was in the witness protection program!! She made me laugh and also made me think.....

I am going to be blogging later today or tomorrow....oh fine...sometime this weekend. I actually miss writing my blogs and so much has happened that I wanted to blog about and I have to say I have no idea what any of the things were...hence the reason I like to blog. It makes me notice the little things during the day when I am looking for material to write about and once I write the things that happened, it always me to remember things I would have forgotten!! I also love to go back and read things and make myself smile!! This has turned into more of a diary and a reason to have 3 minutes to myself a day!!

Okay, I am supposed to be Mapquesting for my parents (the only reason I have not been harassed yet) BUT I heard R ask my parents if I went to the bathroom....party is over....Maybe the witness protection program doesn't sound so bad....JUST KIDDING!!

My bedroom - all to myself!!

I am happy to report that with the move we got both P and A out of our bed!! Yippeee!! The kids decided they wanted to share a room. The day before the move we came to our senses and bought two twin beds. P wanted Batman sheets and A wanted Dora sheets. The anal side of me was twitching with the thought of how the two beds would clash and then I came to my senses again.....FINE FINE - At this point, I was willing to get them whatever their little hearts desired. First night came before we knew it and P said he wanted to sleep in my bed and I told him that he had to sleep in his room. Both the kids climbed into their beds and started to fall asleep then P asked A if she wanted to come over to the Batman side and she said no but offered for him to come over to her Dora bed. He went over to her bed and they both fell asleep!! HELL YEAH!!!

The next night they managed to stay in their own beds to go to sleep! A is doing great. She doesn't climb out of bed until morning. I guess that was one of the perks to her sleeping in our bed all this time. She was so used to a bed without bars that the transition was nothing for her!! Anyway, just the baby is in my room now....and my husband!! Think I can get him in the guest room?? Just kidding!!


The other night A was going to sleep and I was next to her. She had her little head on the Dora pillow (which is Dora's smiling face.) I told A to close her eyes and go to sleep and she said, 'Mommy, Dora's not going to sleep - she is looking at me!'

I am back in action...

R and I were considering looking for a different house so we could have a little more space and be a little more spread out. It was something we have been talking about but something we weren't taking too seriously since I was about to have a baby. Well, one thing lead to another and things moved a bit faster than we had planned and we moved! Yes, with a 3 week old baby, we loaded up EVERYTHING and moved about 6 miles down the road!! So, for those that didn't know, you may have thought I wasn't blogging because of the 3rd baby however that is not the case! The computer was shoved in a box for the last week and we finally got it up and running yesterday. My blogs were being neglected because we were packing, sorting, unpacking, cleaning the new house, the old house, taking care of the kidsss, dogs and bird! Oh and that was interesting, moving with a parrot when it was freezing outside! We are 'settled' as much as we should be settled after moving 6 days ago!

I will blog more later. I also need to catch up on the blogs of my friends.

Off to Breakfast with Santa we go...never a dull moment!! EVER!! Each day we earn the name of my blog more and more!! We are loving confusion and I am anxioulsy awaiting the next one...and wishing for twins so I can score an extra one since R is cutting me off at 4!!

Out of the mouths of babes

Yesterday the baby had her weigh-in (which was a great success by the way) and we were all snug in the doctor's office waiting for the big man's arrival into the room. P was looking at me with a cute little look in his eye and said to me, 'Mommy, you sure have a lot of kids....me, A, and M!' Coming from the kid that started harassing me about having another one the first time he held his new baby sister....
